AirFit P30i Nasal Pillow CPAP Mask by ResMed
The AirFit P30i Nasal Pillow CPAP Mask from ResMed is here for you to take back your sleep. With an unique, hollow silicone frame and soft silicone pillows that seal gently in your nostrils, the P30i is designed for comfortable and effective CPAP therapy. This nasal pillow CPAP mask features a top-of-the-head tubing connection, flexible ribbed silicone frame and comes in Starter Packs with multiple nasal pillow sizes to reduce sizing inconveniences.
Freedom to Move, Breathe, and See
The AirFit P30i features a top-of-the-head hose connection which gives users the freedom to sleep in any position, including on their stomachs. Vent ports on the elbow connector, located on top of the head in the center of the frame, allow carbon dioxide removal when the front of the mask is buried in a pillow. The 360 degree rotating elbow connector lets you toss and turn without fear of dislodging your mask and breaking the seal.
One of the standout features of the ResMed AirFit P30i is its open-faced design that allows users to comfortably read or watch TV in bed. This design also reduces bulkiness in front of the face which helps reduce feelings of claustrophobia that can make CPAP therapy challenging.
Quieter Sleep for Everyone
ResMed's AirFit P30i Nasal Pillow Mask features its proprietary QuietAir Vent technology which reduces airflow noise to just 21 decibels. To put this in perspective, the sound of rustling leaves is 20 decibels and the sound of birds calling is 40 decibels.
The P30i's QuietAir vent is located on the front of the nasal pillow cushion. The vent diffuses exhaled air in multiple directions, reducing noise to ensure a quiet and peaceful sleep environment for both the user and their bed partner.
Tailored Fit
The ResMed AirFit P30i is designed to provide a secure fit with its ribbed, accordion-style frame, adjustable headgear straps and multiple sizing options. The accordion-style frame can stretch to provide a bit of extra length when needed and the ribbed pattern prevents the frame from slipping. The headgear is adjustable via Velcro straps on the sides of the head.
To ensure the best fit possible, the P30i is available in two frame sizes (Standard/Small) and three nasal pillow sizes (S/M/L). There are no restrictions on frame/nasal pillow compatibility.
Modular Design
The ResMed P30i Nasal Pillow Mask has a modular design that allows for easy replacement and customization of its parts. Users can easily detach the frame, nasal pillows and headgear to replace parts and even swap out the P30i nasal pillows for the ResMed AirFit N30i nasal cushion to convert the P30i to a nasal mask.
Starter Pack Sizing Convenience
Standard Starter Pack
The AirFit P30i Standard Starter Pack comes with a Standard Frame and three sizes of P30i nasal pillows (Small, Medium, Large). The Standard sized frame fits most users comfortably.
Small Starter Pack
The AirFit P30i Small Starter Pack comes with a Small Frame and two sizes of P30i nasal pillows (Small, Medium). The Small frame is recommended for those with smaller head sizes.
FAQ
How do I know what frame size I need?
Male users should start with the Standard frame size while female users should start with the Small frame size. If the Standard frame sits too close to your ears or falls back over your head, size down to the Small frame. If the Small frame sits too close to your eyes or too forward on your head, size up to the Standard frame.
You can also measure the width of your head and refer to the AirFit P30i Frame Sizing Guide to find the proper frame size.
Can I use the AirFit P30i with the ResMed AirMini?
No, the AirFit P30i is not compatible with the AirMini Auto Travel CPAP Machine but it is compatible with all other CPAP machines.
How do I clean the AirFit P30i Nasal Mask?
Weekly: headgear, swivel elbow, frame
Daily: nasal pillows
- Disassemble the mask.
- Soak each part in warm water with mild soap for up to ten minutes.
- Scrub the vent holes on the elbow and nasal pillows with a soft bristle brush.
- Rinse each part thoroughly under running tap water and squeeze out excess water from the headgear and frame sleeves.
- Air dry all parts away from direct sunlight.
Can the ResMed P30i Nasal Pillow Mask be used with any CPAP machine?
The ResMed AirFit P30i Nasal Pillow Mask is compatible with all CPAP machines except for the ResMed AirMini Travel CPAP.
Can I use the ResMed P30i Nasal Pillow Mask if I have a beard or facial hair?
Yes, the ResMed AirFit P30i is a good option for CPAP users with facial hair since it is designed to sit below the nose and seal around the nostrils. The P30i is less likely to be dislodged by facial hair as it does not rest on top of the upper lip.

The P30i is an excellent mask that I would give 5 stars in all areas. I was deciding between the DreamWear and this mask, but I saw the little baffles on the top frame and figured it might help hold the mask better at night. For reference, Iโm someone who moves a lot while sleeping so grip of the mask is a big concern for me.
Right off the bat, the mask is incredibly comfortable and well-fitting. The frame is light and pliable, so it rests on and fits around my face without issues. The headgear is pretty standard but itโs soft and breathable, which is all I can really ask for. It stretches to fit well too, living up to the idea that itโs one size fits all. The other primary comfort feature of the mask is the dual airway design, going down both sides of the head. Both can provide air to you, so you can sleep on your side and the one airway will keep pumping. Great because it means I can sleep comfortably on my side at night and I had no issues with breathing. Another excellent touch is the hose connector being at the top of the head. I love this feature since I can keep my air tube away from my neck and chest, where it usually runs. It also means I can sleep facing away from my machine without problems.
Of course the most important part is the nasal pillow. Iโve been using pillows for years now so Iโm used to them, but I still think the P30i pillow is excellent. The standard pack come with all 3 sizes so you can really be sure youโre getting the right fit. Itโs not too hard, holds against my nose very well, and seals up tight. I havenโt had any leakage issues and I wake up feeling refreshed every morning.
I canโt say enough good things about the P30i, and I really think this is the mask Iโll use for the rest of my life. Hopefully, this mask and the parts for it never go out of production and are around for a long time.
My brother recommended ResMed masks to me a few months ago when I was having issue with my previous one. Iโm a pillow user so I made sure to look for their pillow line which landed me on this p30i. Only had it for about a week now but itโs doing good so I feel comfortable giving my thoughts.
Frankly, the part I always care most about is the pillow. How it fits, how it feels, and how it seals. Well thankfully, the p30i pillow is top class. The box comes with all 3 cushion sizes with the standard pack so I had no issue trying out all the sizes. I always appreciate when I donโt have to worry about measurements myself, since I struggle to even measure my pants size by myself (LOL). Medium was my pick and itโs supremely comfortable. It doesnโt feel like anything is there, but at the same time, I know itโs sealing well. I breathe perfectly well and all the usual benefits of going with a pillow apply. Hopefully these pillows hold out well over the long term so I donโt have to replace it too often.
Other than the pillow, the mask is good too. Thereโs only two frame sizes but it seems like they recommend just getting the standard size for most people. It fits my face well and I imagine Iโm about the size of an average person. Also itโs comfortable and doesnโt hurt to wear/leave imprints. Thatโs about all I have to say, really good mask overall.
Subject: N30i nasal pillow mask
I thought it was going to be difficult to get use to this type of mask. I found it to be exactly the opposite. Very comfortable, provides great air flow. I thought laying on my sides would be problematic, no once I set it properly, not too tight or loose it was great. My only issue is my jaw tends to relax too much when I am in a deep sleep, I am having some difficulty finding a chin strap that supports my jaw without causing jaw problems. I have tried many, none returnable, that is an expense I would like to recoup, but we know that won't happen. I will continue that search, but using this mask no matter what. I did enough research to know using a gel around the nose it encouraged, so I started with the gel from the onset. I have no issues because of that, and I have VERY sensitive skin. No adhesives at all, ace bandages can even cause my skin to blister. I love the covers provided with the N30i pillow mask.
Subject: Too loud, otherwise good
First, the positives: the design for the air supply tube going on top of the mask is absolutely genius. Props to the designer for this one. I normally drape my hose from the top of my bed's headboard so this works perfectly for me. My wife doesn't have to worry about moving into the exhalation path anymore. Also, when I wake up in the morning, I don't get noticeable marks at all because of the soft fabric on the sides of the mask.
However, I will say that this mask is on the louder side. When I initially switched to this mask, I wasn't impressed by how loud the airflow was. Because of the way the sides of the mask press down on my face, I can hear the airflow and my own breathing in my skull. This will definitely take some time to get used to.
I think this mask is a good choice. I just wish it was a little quieter.
This was the first nasal pillow, or mask for that matter that I purchased and I like it alot so far. It comes with 3 different sizes on the nose piece for you to choose from and I found the medium to be best for me.
It's also nice that the hose is on top of my head as having one infront of my face/neck was not very appealing to me and seemed like it would just get in the way. With this setup however, the hose does not get in the way.
One tip I can provide is that you don't want to tighten the straps too much or it will be uncomfortable and just irritate your nose.
I found that I only need to tighten it enough so that it won't move away from my nose causing an air leak if I decide to turn over on my side instead of laying on my back and it's perfect.
First of all, the P30i is quite comfortable to wear. It is very lightweight and not the least bit bulky like some of the full face masks that I have tried. I didn't miss at all having to tighten straps so much just to prevent air leaks and then looking in the mirror after removing the mask in the morning, and seeing all those marks on my face. But then came the downside for me. I would constantly find my self being awakened exhaling through my mouth. I tried using a chin strap along with the nasal mask, but that was too much work and defeated the reason for going to a less obtrusive mask. So, I have gone back to using my full face mask as it does allow me to have uninterrupted sleep.
Subject: Way too tight to use
I purchased the standard size because I have a larger than normal head and that was the only option (certainly not small). I tried and tried with the various sized nasal pillows but woke up each morning to a sore nose and face. Now it sits by my bedside collecting dust and I'm using my years old mask... Going to try and get a replacement ..

Subject: Unsure about this one ...
Well, I am trying to find a good pillow mask but this one is NOT for me. Hurts my nose! This fits too tight against the base of the nose and causes my nose to be sore each morning when I wake.
It does create a good seal at the nose. It does have the on-top-of-the-head connector, which is great but the tightness against the nose it way too much and there is no way to adjust this! If it was able to be adjusted, it might be the perfect mask.
So, depending on head size maybe, it might not be for you.
Subject: Cannot change the nose piece
I order the p301. Amal pillow and I was unable to put the new one on my head piece. Iโm 80 yo and could contribute to my inability to change them out but honestly it shouldnโt be that difficult
Thank you for reaching out to us! I was not able to find your order with Respshop so I could contact you. I am sorry you had issues with the cushion but perhaps this video will help. If not, please call us 866-936-3754

I absolutely love the comfort of the head gear for this mask. I also likes the pillows however I wish they made an extra small or petite size nasal pillow as this one is just a bit too large but I can manage. The important feature to me is the comfort of the headgear.
Should the chin strap we were under or over the mask?
Thanks for your reply
