Willa,
Thank you for your support and advice. I however have never had a problem with a leaky mask and I use a Mirage Soft Mask which fits over my nose. I never get leakage. I adjust my straps softly over my head as opposed to tightly.
My problem is that the CPAP is sucking in mite and dust and dog allergens and pushing them into my nose and therefore sinus. I have to sterilize my room as well as my CPAP. There is no point to cleaning a CPAP if the room has allergens which will only be sucked into it.
