Cleaned the headgear all 5 days with hot water and washing powder from hand.
I also used the clips to shorten the headgear, the resulats were "mixed".
I cut a pice from an old headgear an replaced it with some quality elastic tape like this:
Commercial Link Removed. Instead, google search Super Elastic 7M tape.
--> The force to strech this tape fells more linear than the Resmed tape.
The total lenght is now a bit longer than a stock "laundered" one. The new elastic tape needs a little bit more force to strech.
Now I clean also everyday befor bed with a towel the entry from the nose with hot tap water, without soap.
Results:

- Slighty lower (30 to 50%) and more steady AHI.
- The hair from the backside are in the morning not "constructed"
