The Nova Nasal Mask headgear should get a thorough cleaning every week. Fill a tub or clean sink with lukewarm water and gentle soap. Soak the headgear up to 10 minutes, then use fresh water to wash away any remaining soap. Lay the headgear out to dry on a clean towel.
Cleaning CPAP machine components, including headgear, is important. Using dirty equipment can lead to bacteria and germs. But it’s recommended to avoid ultraviolet (UV) and ozone cleaners, as they pose health risks and may damage your CPAP equipment.
