Product Details
Summary
CPAP and BiPAP Bacterial Filter by Sunset Healthcare
This Bacterial Filter from Sunset Healthcare significantly reduces the bacteria and viral content in your CPAP or BiPAP airflow. It is compatible with CPAP and BiPAP machines of all brands and connects to all standard 22mm OD CPAP tubing. It can be used with or without a heated humidifier.
This filter is not washable and should be replaced weekly or when dirty. If this bacterial filter is connected to a machine with a heated humidifier, it will require more frequent replacement, typically every three days. This is because the filter becomes saturated with moisture from the humidifier.
Usage Instructions
Connect one end of the bacterial filter to your machine and the other end to your hose. If you are using a heated tubing, place the bacterial filter between your CPAP mask and heated tubing.

Subject: Bacterial filters
Due to the "recall" I decided to use a inline bacterial filter for my protection. The order was quickly shipped and received. The filter does not seem to interfere with the flow of air and is simple to install in my unit. I used a "Sharpie" to write the day the filter was inserted and will replace it every three months or sooner if the surface shows debris or the airflow is affected.Will order again!

Hi Jeff, please give us a call and we will help you install the filter. It fits in between the device and tube, or in between the tubing and the mask. You can call us at 866-936-3754.

Subject: bacterial filter for my cpap
I bought this to catch any particles that may get blown through the air tube on my dreamstation CPAP due to the recall. It worked just fine. Just make sure you get the right size for your tubing. It did not reduce the airflow and it gave me a greater sense of security while waiting for the replacement machine came in.

Subject: Fyi heated tube issues
Bought to use due to recall. It's not a 100% solution but maybe an ok option to help short term. I have a heated tube and this does not connect to heated tube on machine side. Had to wear at top of my mask on had where my tube plugs in which is not ideal.
Switched to non heated tube and can use on machine end.

Subject: Easy to install
People need to read and understand that Phillips (the manufacturer of the machines) and not Respshop is to blame for this issue. The filter is super easy to install. 1) Remove tubing from the machine 2) Put the larger end of the filter end where tubing usually goes 3) Attach hose to smaller end

Subject: Sunset Healthcare CPAP Bacteria Filter
I was interested in increased health precautions with my Philips CPAP Machine, and the Sunset Healthcare CPAP Bacteria Filter filled the bill for me. It is well designed, easy to install, and works well. I now regularly purchase the bacteria filter in combination with my other CPAP Supplies.

This device is only able to protect from particulates, not off-gassed chemicals. This is why we only recommend this if advised by your physician to use.

If you are caught in the recall if Phillips CPAPS this is the way to go until your machine is replaced. Filters work great. Each one is good for about a week. Very surprised how much it catches. I’ll continue using with my new CPAP.

Subject: Very large for an inline filter
While I'm sure these work great, I can't really use them due to the placement of my machine in the open section (not on top) of my nightstand. I dont think the makers really took "limited space" into account.

Question
I am confused as to why this devise is not included in the original product. It appears the air without the filter is dirty.
Answer
I am sorry but the company does not package them with their cpaps. These are currently sold separately. Thank you

Question
How is this supposed to install? There are no instructions and I don't see any possibility of this filter fitting on my hose at either end! Very frustrating I've waited on these in fear of using my recalled Phillips dreamstation without them and now they don't even fit!
Answer
Please give us a call, and we will go over this with you. It can either fit between the mask and the tubing, or the tubing and the machine. If you have a heated tube, it will not work from the machine to the tube. Please call us, as this will be easier to explain over the phone.

Question
you’ve made a mistake building this machine that must be why I have a funny taste when I turn it on and now you’re saying here that it’s $7.99 per filter which I have a humidifier so that’s for every three days I cannot afford this Why would you not be supplying these filters ?
Answer
Please remember that we are not the manufacturer. Philips Respironics is the manufacturer. If you would like to discuss your concerns with them, this is their phone number: 1-877-907-7508

Question
What a mess. I didn’t know these filters even existed. Why isn’t Philips supplying these filters to all the people whose machine is part of the recall? When will the filters be back in stock? What is the price of the filters? Are they shipped for free or is there a shipping cost on top of the filer price?
Answer
Hello, I am going to ask you to contact our office at 1-866-936-3754 and we would be happy to help answer your questions
