SO, WHAT EXACTLY DOES A CPAP MACHINE DO?


CPAP machines are an effective invention. CPAP machines provide continuous air pressure to keep air passages open and oxygen flowing! They are an affordable helpful unit for the problem of Sleep Apnea. They truly do make a difference! One important issue is to keep one's CPAP machine in optimal working condition by cleaning the unit. Keeping your CPAP machine and cleaning device sanitized is not difficult!


IMPORTANCE OF EFFECTIVE CLEANING


It is important that users of CPAP machine and cleaner know the important do's and don’ts for this machine. Not only will it give the machine a longer shelf life, but it will make for a healthier consumer. When you sleep in a healthy environment, it will help you feel rested and energized! Be aware of bacteria! Bacteria is not visible, but it is a serious detriment to health. Bacteria can build up on the unit and mask. There are so many different types of bacteria, and some are more virulent than others. You do not need to be a pathologist to be aware of important maintenance for your CPAP machine and cleaner. You really must adhere to the importance of prevention, and have a regular maintenance routine. That is key!

FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING YOUR CPAP MACHINE


Now, a good CPAP machine and cleaning device come with instructions. These machines use circulating air that is humidified and filtered. Keeping the apparatus clean cuts down on unnecessary contamination. There are different models of CPAP machines, and cleaning devices. However, most CPAP machines have the same basic equipment. This equipment includes mask, headgear, tubing, water chamber, and the CPAP unit. Many users clean their equipment with warm soapy water, perhaps a little bit of vinegar, and a soft cloth- except for the water chamber, which needs hot water to clean it. Additionally, there are highly effective commercial cleaners that are available for optimal safety and precautions. These cleaning devices use ozone, and ultra violet light for the lumen. Although these sanitizing units might not be covered by insurance; they are well worth the investment. Especially consider the purchase of a cleaning device, if one's life style is extremely busy! One may not be as vigilant in their upkeep of maintenance! Also, some bacteria are stubborn, and a sanitizing unit can be a blessing! A good working CPAP machine and cleaning device will work together to eliminate important risks such as pneumonia, mold, musty odors, and allergies, just to name a few! Who wouldn't want such an effective and reliable system to help them conquer Sleep Apnea? One doesn't have to be a physician to know the benefits of asepsis and universal precautions!

A WORD OF CAUTION


Never risk the complications of sharing your CPAP machine. One does not know what pathogens another person might harbor. People very often carry pathogens, and are not affected by them; it might not be apparent for you to see any symptoms. Also, by keeping your unit clean, you insure the durability and shelf life of the machine.

Furthermore, if you feel as if you are fighting a respiratory infection, it is a warning for you to practice regimented cleaning of your equipment. Lastly, never place your CPAP machine in a dish washer; it will be the ruination of the machine.

Finally, sleep well thanks to these two machines, the CPAP and Sanitizing unit known as the Cleaning device. In the words of F. Scott Fitzgerald, you will be "Breathing dreams like air!"
