[Equipment] Loud noise from AirFit F20 mask
#1
Loud noise from AirFit F20 mask
Hi All, brand new CPAP user here and having a rough go of it so far.  

I'm currently using an AirFit F20 full face mask, and it makes a very loud wooshing/venting noise when I exhale.  Then, when I inhale, the mask seems to suck onto my face.  It doesn't happen with every breath, but it's often enough that I haven't been able to fall asleep wearing it yet.  Looking through some older posts, it looks like I do have the "quieter" elbow, and the bag it came in says QuietAir. Any suggestions for making it less noisy?  Thanks!
