DreamStation 2 Reusable Filter

This Product DOES NOT Require a Prescription

Product Description

CPAP filters are an essential CPAP supply used in everyday sleep maintenance. This reusable filter is used to remove dust, pollen, and smoke particles before they reach your airway through your CPAP mask. Over time, these filters can become filled with dirt and bacteria that can become harmful if ingested.

It is recommended to clean this pollen filter every 2 weeks or when needed depending on appearance. Replacement typically occurs every 6 months unless you notice a considerable amount of dirt when cleaning regularly. For best results and to extend the life of your CPAP machine, following a strict cleaning and replacement schedule promotes healthy sleep therapy and saves you money!

Please Note - the gray backing is not meant to be removed as it holds the filter together to provide efficient filtration.


Special Features

Designed to only be compatible with the Philips Respironics DreamStation 2 Machine, this filter will not work with any other CPAP machine. Customize your filter use to your style. Use this pollen filter alone to receive clean air throughout therapy or pair with the ultra fine, disposable filtersto ensure you are breathing in the purest air created from your CPAP.


Installation

  1. Remove the water chamber from the humidifier plate
  2. Pull the white tab on the gray reusable filter to remove the filters
  3. Attach the blue ultra fine filter (if using both filters) to the gray reusable filter and insert back into the device

How Often Should I Replace My Filters?

To make sure that the air quality you breathe during the
night is high and safe, you need to replace or clean the CPAP filters
periodically. If you have pets, have someone in your home who smokes, or have a
wood-burning stove, you will need to replace the filters more regularly. Disposable
CPAP filters should be replaced every 1-3 months. You cannot reuse them. You
will want to change the disposable in-line bacteria filters every 30 days.

Reusable filters should be replaced every 12-24 months depending
on routine maintenance.

How Do I Clean My Machine Filter?

Unless your machine uses a reusable filter, it is recommended
to dispose of the CPAP filter and not attempt to clean and reuse. Disposable filters
are typically made of a thin white material and should be disposed/replaced
when noticeable build up can be seen or it has been 3 months. Reusable filters
are made of foam-like material and can be cleaned by hand and left to air dry.

I Want to Submit a Self-Claim to My Insurance. Can I Do
This?

In most cases you can submit a claim form for an out-of-net
network provider. You may receive reimbursement back from your provider
depending on your coverage and co-pay. The HCPC code for disposable CPAP
filters is A7038. The HCPC code for reusable CPAP filters is A7039.

Do I Need a Prescription for This Product?

No, machine and mask parts do not require a prescription for
purchase. Often you can prolong the life of your CPAP machine by replacing your
CPAP filter on a frequent basis!
