I have had Sleep Apnoeia since 1994 and have had a variety of machines through the years. I have never been particulary good at the cleaning regime they suggest. This is basically to dis-assemble the mask and wash it daily, then to immerse the hose in a cleaning solution on a weekly basis. 4 years or so I bought a machine that you link your cpap machine to that cleanses the whole system daily using ozone and it worked very well. However, before Xmas I received a mew cpap machine and chatting to the technician they said I could not use my Ozone based cleaner as they were thought to rot the insides. SO, I had a look around and came up with this`;

It works from a UV C light source. You simply unclip your mask and drop it in the drawer, run the 5 minute cycle and away you go. The light has an estimated life of 80,000 hours. In their promotional material they claim that you can sterilise anything, mobile phone, false teeth, toothbrushes and the like. Having used mine for a week or so it crossed my mind as to whether or not I could drop my pf, basket, tamper etc in once a week?
Now I know we have a healthy amount of scientific minded bods amongst our members so I am looking for any pearls of wisdom please!
