Nuance pro size?

My total leaks have approached 75cm without being flagged as large leaks by my DreamStation or SleepyHead, even though the leaks were waking me. Around 75cm seems to be the threshold at my pressure. I arbitrarily decided to try to keep my leaks below the intentional mask leaks at my pressure plus 24cm. If I understand correctly ResMed flags anything over 24cm large leaks. I have SleepyHead flagging leaks over that number which has helped me improve my leak levels. Using that criteria, the OP's large leak threshold would indeed be around 60cm at his max pressure.
