Q What needs to be included on my prescription?
A If an "Rx Required" CPAP mask is the only item in your order, your prescription would only need to state for "CPAP Supplies" or "CPAP equipment". If you are purchasing other "Rx Required" products, there may be other prescription requirements that will be listed in FAQ tab of the product page.
Q Is headgear required for this item?
A Yes, headgear is required for this item. However, if your mask frame and cushion have worn out but your headgear is still functioning properly, you can purchase the assembly kit HERE.
Q Can I buy this mask even if I'm a female?
A While the Mirage FX for Her is recommended for females, which you can purchase here, you can buy this mask instead if you'd like, provided you find the correct size.
Q How do I know what size to purchase?
A Go to the sizing guide here, ensure it is to scale, print it out and follow the directions to find your perfect fit.

Reassembly
In order to avoid hygienic issues or improper mask usage, regular replacement is essential. Nasal mask cushions are constantly in close contact with your face, and its position on your nose can make you more prone to a nasty nasal infection if you do not replace frequently. Therefore, you should replace your Mirage FX Nasal CPAP Mask Nasal Cushion, which can be purchased HERE, every two weeks.
CPAP mask tubing is susceptible to developing small holes or tears which may not even be visible to the naked eye. These can cause air leaks, and if your tube is leaking, you may not be receiving your prescribed therapy setting from your CPAP. This may cause you to feel as if your sleep therapy is not working as intended, even though it is. Therefore, you should replace your tubing (Check out some tubing offered by ApriaDirect HERE) once every three months.
Your frame system is in close proximity to your face, and therefore needs to be replaced relatively frequently. However, it is not directly touching your face, which is why it doesn't need to be replaced quite so often. We do not sell the Mirage FX Nasal CPAP Mask Frame, but instead sell the Mirage FX Nasal CPAP Mask Assembly Kit, which includes absolutely everything you need besides the headgear, works for both the "standard" and "for Her" mask, and can be purchased HERE. The Mirage FX Nasal CPAP Mask Assembly Kit should be replaced once every three months.
Over time, your CPAP headgear and chin straps may become stretched and lose their elasticity, leading to over-tightening and discomfort. They can also trap bacteria from sweat and moisture. Therefore, your Mirage FX Nasal CPAP Mask Headgear should be replaced every six months. To purchase the standard headgear click HERE and to purchase the "for Her" headgear, click HERE.
