CPAP users know the terror of unwanted noise creeping into the night. But you shouldn’t have to trade one nightmare—noisy snoring—for another: a noisy mask! If your CPAP mask has started to squeak, whistle, or groan like a ghost, don’t fear—there are ways to banish those eerie sounds.
Don’t let your CPAP mask be a source of nighttime dread. With these tricks up your sleeve, you can enjoy peaceful, noise-free sleep all night long and turn your CPAP back into a sleep-time treat:
1. Replace old and leaky cushions and frames – Avoid the Curse of the Noisy Mask!
Over time, your CPAP mask cushions and frames wear down, causing a loose, insecure seal. This leads to the spooky sounds of leaks and rubbing that can keep you tossing and turning in the dead of night. A worn-out mask is the most common culprit behind noisy masks—don’t let it haunt your dreams!
Did you know? Most insurance providers cover a new full face cushion every month and nasal cushions/pillows every 2 weeks. Using insurance for all your CPAP supplies is convenient not just because it saves you money, but also because it helps you adhere to a replacement schedule. Don’t let worn out supplies hinder your sleep!
You could get new CPAP supplies at no cost—no tricks, just a treat! Allow us to check with your insurance provider for you to find out what is covered (for free!). Click below to get started:

3. Keep your mask cushion clean — Banish the creepy crawlies from your mask!
A dirty mask is like a haunted house—filled with invisible horrors! Bacteria buildup not only weakens your mask seal, but it also adds extra squeaky sounds to your night. A dirty mask can also affect how well your mask seals to your face, as build up from your skin can weaken the barrier formed with the silicone. The Lumin makes cleaning easy with:
- Simple and Quick: Lumin kills 99% of bacteria in a one-touch 5 minute cycle
- UV Technology: specialized UV-C light source targets harmful bacteria, viruses, mold, and fungus
