How to Find the Right CPAP Mask from Home Using Mask Selector Tools
Choosing the right CPAP mask is one of the most important parts of successful sleep apnea therapy. Comfort, fit, and mask style can all impact how well you sleep and how effective your treatment is. To make the process easier, several CPAP manufacturers have developed online mask selection tools that allow you to explore mask options from the comfort of your home.
Below you will find three trusted mask selection tools from ResMed, Philips Respironics and Fisher & Paykel.Each tool asks a few simple questions about your sleep habits and may guide you through measurements or a quick photo scan to help recommend masks that may suit your facial features and therapy needs.
These tools are designed to make mask shopping easier by narrowing down options and providing sizing guidance before you make a purchase.
ResMed Mask Selector Tool
The ResMed Mask Selector is an online fitting tool designed to help identify suitable ResMed CPAP masks based on your sleep style and facial measurements.
To begin, open the ResMed Mask Selector and click Start when the page loads.
You will first be asked to enter your first name, last name, and date of birth.
Please enter your first and last name exactly as it appears on your CPAP Outlet account. The results from this tool are sent directly to us rather than to you. Once you have completed the Mask Selector, please send us a quick email so we can quickly locate your results and review the recommendations with you.
The Mask Selector will then guide you through a short questionnaire about your sleep habits and breathing preferences. These questions help match you with mask styles that may work best for your therapy.
You will also complete three simple facial measurements including:
-
Nose height
-
Nose width
-
Nose depth
The tool provides short instructional videos to guide you through each measurement step.
Before starting, it is helpful to have the following items ready:
-
A mirror
-
A ruler
-
A quarter or another object approximately one inch in size
Once finished, the results are securely sent to CPAP Outlet. We review the recommendations and email you the ResMed mask options suggested for your measurements.
