ResMed AirFit F20 Full Face CPAP Mask

ResMed AirFit F20 CPAP Full Face Mask

InfinitySeal Cushion
The AirFit F20 InfinitySeal cushion is designed to accommodate a wide range of facial structures and to provide a secure seal under varying pressure levels. The cushion's sophisticated engineering offers significant support around the nose, which effectively reduces the occurrence of disruptive mask leaks and blow-outs, contributing to a better sleep experience. With the AirFit F20 cushion, users can experience a comfortable and effective therapy session, ensuring a good night's sleep.

Plush Headgear and Magnetic Clips
The AirFit F20 headgear is designed for ultimate comfort and stability, no matter the sleeping position. The flexible headgear's four-way adjustable design ensures it stays put all night long, which minimizes readjustments and interruptions to your sleep.

Additionally, the magnetic headgear clips* provide an effortless and convenient way to attach the headgear to the frame, making it easy to put on and take off the mask. This feature allows for quick and hassle-free removal and reattachment of the mask without readjusting the headgear, compromising that perfect fit.

*CPAP masks with magnets should be kept at least 6 inches (150 mm) away from any implants or medical devices that could be negatively impacted by magnetic fields. Failure to do so can lead to malfunction of the implant/medical device. Learn more about the ResMed CPAP Masks with Magnets Safety Update.

Quick-Release Elbow for Ultimate Convenience
The AirFit F20 Full Face Mask features a specially designed quick-release elbow that offers unparalleled convenience. This innovative feature allows users to disconnect the mask from the CPAP hose without removing the mask itself, providing a hassle-free experience when you need to get up during the night.

Simply squeeze the sides of the quick-release elbow to detach it, along with your CPAP hose, from the front of the AirFit F20. Upon your return to bed, you can quickly reconnect the elbow to the front of the mask by pushing the quick-release elbow in until you hear an audible click. The AirFit F20's quick-release elbow eliminates the need to readjust any straps or components so users can minimize interruptions to their sleep apnea treatment.

Flexible, Open-Faced Frame
Shaped like adaptive wings, the F20 mask frame runs along the cheeks and extends up the sides of the forehead. This innovative design allows ResMed to eliminate the forehead support bar without compromising mask seal, providing users with an open field of view which not only reduces feelings of claustrophobia, but also makes it possible to watch TV or read before bed.

Whisper Quiet Operation
ResMed's F20 CPAP mask features innovative QuietAir Vent technology which reduces operation noise to an impressively low 21 decibels that is truly "whisper quiet." A ring of small ports on the mask's quick-release elbow gently disperses exhaled air away from the user and bed partner, minimizing noise and draft to prevent unpleasant awakenings.

Multiple Headgear and Cushion Sizes

The ResMed AirFit F20 Full Face Mask is available in three cushion sizes - Small, Medium and Large. All three cushion sizes come with a Standard headgear. The F20 headgear also comes in Small and Large (sold separately).

Interchangeable Cushions

The AirFit F20 Full Face Mask is also compatible with ResMed's AirTouch F20 Memory Foam Cushion which offers a breathable seal with ultra-soft performance.

Note: The AirFit F20 mask frame is compatible with all sizes of AirFit/AirTouch F20 cushions.

FAQ

How often should I replace the AirFit F20 Full Face Mask?
The F20 mask frame, elbow and headgear should be replaced every 6 months while the AirFit F20 silicone cushion should be replaced every 2 to 3 months. We encourage more frequent cushion replacements compared to other mask parts because the silicone softens with use (i.e., from contact with face oils, dead skin cells etc.) which inevitably compromises mask seal.

How do I clean the ResMed AirFit F20 mask?
Daily: cushion
Weekly: frame, elbow, headgear

Disassemble the mask before cleaning and hand wash all parts with mild soap and water. Use a soft bristle brush to gently scrub the vent ports on the quick-release elbow. Rinse each part thoroughly under running water and air dry away from direct sunlight. Squeeze excess water out from the headgear before laying it flat to air dry.

Regular mask cleaning helps control bacterial growth and prolongs the lifespan of the silicone cushion. CPAP wipes can be used in place of soap and water for quicker, hassle-free mask maintenance.

How do I find my AirFit F20 cushion size?
You can use the AirFit F20 Sizing Gauge to find your cushion size. 

1. Download and print the sizing template at 100% scale.
2. Cut out the template.
3. While standing in front of a mirror, hold the template to your face with the top of the template aligning with the bridge of your nose.
4. The size that aligns with the crease below your lower lip (indent in your chin) indicates your recommended F20 cushion size.
5. If you fall between sizes, choose the larger size for better comfort.

How do I disassemble/assemble the AirFit F20 mask?
Disassembly:

1. Remove the elbow from the frame.
2. Unclip the magnetic clips from the frame.
3. Undo upper and lower headgear tabs.
4. Pull the headgear away from the frame and slide the magnetic clips off the headgear straps.
5. Pull the cushion away from the frame by holding the frame in one hand and the hard plastic portion of the cushion in the other. If your mask has never been disassembled, you will need to exert some force to pull the cushion off.

Assembly:

1. Attach the cushion to the frame by lining up the circular opening on the cushion to the frame and pushing until the pieces are connected.
2. Thread the magnetic clips onto the bottom headgear straps. Fold over the straps to secure the Velcro.
3. Thread the upper headgear straps through the slots in the frame. Fold the Velcro tabs over to secure.
4. Push the elbow into the front of the mask until an audible click is heard.

What is the difference between the AirFit F20 and AirTouch F20 ResMed full face masks?
The AirFit F20 and AirTouch F20 share the same headgear, frame, and elbow connector. The only difference between the two masks is the cushion material. The AirFit F20 features a silicone cushion while the AirTouch F20 features a memory foam cushion. Memory foam offers a softer fit and is more comfortable for sensitive skin.
