My CPAP machine is too noisy; it keeps me / my bed partner from sleeping.

Today’s machines are nearly silent, so unless you are hypersensitive to noise ( try ear plugs), this would indicate a problem. Check the machine filters. They should be changed monthly or when visibly discolored to help keep the machines running smoothly. There will be a slight audible noise if you are using a Bi Level machine as the pressure transitions between inhalation and exhalation settings. There will be a slight audible noise if you use an AutoCPAP as the machine changes inhalation pressure. If your machine is otherwise noisy, there may be a machine defect. Call us to make an appointment to bring your machine in to be evaluated.
