I’d like to introduce to you the Sleep8 CPAP Cleaner.
What is a Sleep8 CPAP Cleaner?
This device completely sanitizes your mask,headgear,tubing and water chamber by getting rid of 99.9 percent of mold,bacteria and viruses viruses (according to: https://medium.com/@tom.o/sleep8-cpap-cleaner-reviewed-aa5c880d6d11
The Sleep8 makes use of activated oxygen or ozone instead of water to clean and sanitize your CPAP equipment. You will appreciate to know that ozone doesn’t come into contact with your CPAP machine in any way. And also,what makes Sleep8 stand out from its competitors is its size. It is very lightweight,weighing only 9.4 ounces. And it’s portable,so you can pack it in your luggage for use at home or when you travel.
Let’s take a look inside the box. On top is the Sleep8 itself. You’ll also see the micro USB charger,the Sleep8 Quick Start Guide,and the Sleep8 filter bag. The soft,resealable filter bag should be changed approximately every 3 months with regular cleaning use. Replacement filter bags are available at reputable CPAP and medical equipment stores.
Sleep 8 CPAP Cleaner instructions
As an optional purchase,the makers of Sleep8 have made this convenient soft shell travel case which easily stores all your sleep aid accessories at home or on the go.
To start the process,simply connect the micro USB cable between the Sleep8 device and an accessible and working electrical outlet. When plugged in,your Sleep8 will beep once and the battery indicator will be seen on the screen. You can either use the Sleep8 while plugged in or on battery power. A full charge will take about 90 minutes or so.
How does the cleaning procedure work? Before you begin the sanitizing process,make sure you clean up your CPAP mask with a wipe to remove residue or facial oils from the cushion. If you’re using a dehumidifier and you are sanitizing the water chamber,be sure the water chamber is complete empty. Don’t leave any excess water in it.
Leaving your mask attached to the tube,connect this tube to the valve inside the filter bag. The Sleep8 is compatible with most CPAP tubing with no special connections or parts needed. Only the Dream Station Go with 12 millimeter tubing which is smaller than standard CPAP tubing,requires a mask adaptor to connect the tube to the filter bag. This mask adaptor can be also purchased from your trusted CPAP or medical equipment store.
Once you place the mask,tube and water chamber inside the bag,seal it shut. On the outside of the bag,you’ll notice a triangular port which attaches directly to the Sleep8 CPAP Cleaner.
With the device attached,and the bag sealed,press the round power button on the Sleep8 until you hear a beep. The device will light up and the device timer will begin the countdown,starting the sanitation process.
The device is virtually quiet. But you will hear the fan adjust speed from time to time or see the filter bag inflate,but this process is perfectly normal during sanitation.
In about an hour,the Sleep8 device will beep,and the screen will say ok,and the device will shut off.
When the device shuts off,you can open the bag and remove your CPAP equipment. The Sleep8 CPAP Cleaner comes with a safety start feature which means the device the device won’t run unless it’s connected to the bag properly,An alarm on the device will beep for 30 seconds and an X will appear on the screen. To cancel this alarm,you simply have to press the power button
The Sleep8 CPAP Cleaner also comes with 2 other built in alarms to let you know if something is wrong with the device. This includes a fan failure alarm and a low battery alarm. If you experience a fan failure alarm,please contact Sleep8 support for the proper procedures.
