ResMed N20 Mask Elbow and Tube

Standard tubing uses a common cuff and fits most machines and masks. Heated and machine-specific tubes (like ResMed's ClimateLineAir or F&P's ThermoSmart) are matched to particular machines, so check your machine model against this product's listing, or ask our team and we'll confirm the right tube.

As a general guide, every 6 to 12 months, or sooner if you notice cracks, tears or a smell that won't wash out. Small holes cause leaks and pressure loss that can be hard to spot, so replacing tubing on schedule keeps your pressure accurate.

Heated (climate) tubing warms the air on its way to your mask, which reduces condensation — the "rainout" that leaves water droplets in the tube — and makes humidified air more comfortable, especially in cooler rooms. It's not essential, but if you get rainout or find the air cold or drying, it makes a real difference. It only works with machines designed for it.

Wash weekly in warm soapy water with a gentle, fragrance-free soap, rinse it through, and hang it to air-dry out of direct sunlight — hanging it over a rail or door lets the water run out. A tube brush makes cleaning easier. Make sure it's fully dry before use.
