CPAP Bacteria Filter by Spirit Medical This add-on filter is used to help alleviate allergy symptoms and deliver the cleanest air possible. If you suffer from sinus infections or allergies, it is highly recommended that you add an in line bacteria filter to your nightly sleep therapy to reduce the dust and pollen you breathe in every night. The bacteria filter cleans the air as it leaves your CPAP or BiPAP machine ensuring you receive high quality air pressure. This bacteria filter has a universal connection on both ends allowing the bacteria filter to work with all brands of CPAP machines and CPAP tubing. The filter is disposable and should NOT be cleaned. Users find the best results when replacing the filter every month, similar to a standard machine filter. The Cleanest Add-on CPAP Supply To use, you can attach the filter directly to your machine, CPAP hose, or mask elbow to receive clean air pressure. While the design is much different, the best thing to do is treat the bacteria filter similar to a standard machine filter. Replace all of your CPAP supplies on a regular basis to reduce dirt and pollen build-up that will reduce the effectiveness of treating your sleep apnea. Using a dirty filter can cause your machine to work harder to provide the correct air pressure. The harder the machine works, the more susceptible it is to being damaged. Always keep your filters clean or replace them on a regular basis to reduce the chance of the machine being damaged. We have included a recommended replacement schedule below for the best times to replace your CPAP supplies.
