Can I use any mask?
#1
Can I use any mask?
I own a old-school CPAP - Respironics REMstar REM Plus C-Flex CPAP Machine.

Can I purchase any kind of mask for it?
I was wanting to try the kind that just goes on my nostrils such as this one - [Commercial Link Removed] Search Supplier #14 for, respironics-dreamwear-nasal-cpap-mask.

Will this mask fit ( hose size etc.) On my machine?

Sorry for the dumb question.

Yes, Masks and non-heated hoses are universal and can be used on any full sized machine.

Any mask will work on any CPAP machine, as long as we're not talking about a "travel" CPAP.

The link had to be removed in that first post as it violates Board rules. You can't link to sales sites as you did.
