Evora Full Face - Setup, Maintenance, and Review

[@mikishad1058]

Just got this mask 2 weeks ago, been wearing full face masks for over 10 years. This is a game changer. From the first night I knew this was what I’ve needed for years. Never going back to the old style. I had zero adjustment time, immediately was terrific.

[@CPAPmyway]

Great to hear!

[@Toni-ll2fw]

Looking forward to using it. I wear glasses. I think it's going to be perfect for me

[@sasminimalist]

I got this mask three days ago and wow! It's great. I wore three other types they all leaked. Not this one. I'm getting a good night's sleep now.

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@feoman]

I have this mask too and I thank you for this video. Two nights ago I ripped the mask off my face in exasperation because I could not get a proper fit. The portion of the video where you showed us how to put the mask on was the "ah-Ha!" momen I needed. Thank you and many blessings to you!

[@CPAPmyway]

Happy to help. Thanks for watching.

[@cynthiacairns9209]

The segment on how you put it on is life changing! So simple, and after watching this, so obvious. But somehow I didn't figure it out on my own. Thank you!

[@JCScowling39]

I always used full faced mask before and found them exceedingly uncomfortable. I just got this mask through a sleep study and I love it. It fits my face so much better than my Simplus did.

[@CPAPmyway]

Nice!!

[@senorkapowssite]

I've this mask for about 5 months. It is the first one I've ever worn. It is great and easy to maintain. I have been having issues operating the whole system just this week. At first I thought the problem was my settings on the machine. Then thinking about it, I starting looking at the mask for the issue, especially when breathing out and a lot of air noise. Thanks to your video I was able to fix the problem. It was the asphyxiation flap, which I did not know existed. It was pushed open and must have happened while I was cleaning the mask. Just realised this after you talking about the flap at 4:00 ... I can go back to having a good night sleep again. Thank you.

[@CPAPmyway]

Very cool. Thanks for watching.

[@BonnieBeach-yr2ms]

10:30 I have been using Cpap for two years and I’ve tried several masks. I always had trouble with leakage. I had another sleep study done recently and was given the Evora - I can’t believe how comfortable and “leakage free” it is! GREAT mask and very helpful video! Thank you!

[@CPAPmyway]

Awesome!

[@mythrusthelema]

My Dr ordered this mask for me since I have a pacemaker and there are no magnets. I have been using it for a week and really like it.

[@CPAPmyway]

Glad that it is working well. Thanks for watching.

[@cesalt2408]

This is my first mask and CPAP arrives tomorrow. Wish me luck! I think I chose a winner and appreciate your video.

[@CPAPmyway]

Good luck. Thanks for watching.

[@joycevince8757]

I just got off the phone with ResMed. I was using nasal pillows but couldn't continue, throat so dry it was causing me to choke. (For lack of a better word) Also, my nose would be sore. Bottom line I'm being sent this very mask in 5 to 7days. I wasn't happy about a full-face mask- had one years ago and hated it, simply became non-compliant. Watching your video and reading the comments is making me feel better about this. Just hoping it doesn't leave red indentations on my face.

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for watching a good luck.

[@scowell]

You were probably having mouth leaks. I tape my mouth even with full face.

[@serialkiller979]

Cool I couldn't figure out how to pull the mask apart I knew pulling the silicone would ruin it so I needed to hear someone explain how to cause the guy in the demonstration video he doesn't say anything and just pops it apart and I couldn't see what he did it was annoying after seeing you do it it was instant super easy glad I found your video before I ripped the silicone off I had been just cleaning it together and it was more time consuming and wasn't sure if I was getting clean enough so thanks again for taking the time to make a proper demonstration unlike the the actual product video demonstration as the guy says nothing and does it real fast and makes it look easy but didn't know it was the two plastic pieces that come apart I thought it was the actual silicone that pulled off... Cheers m8

[@bjrgreene]

I needed to know if the air (exhalation)? coming from the bottom of the mask was right! I took the mask off about 4 times because of the air coming from the bottom side before I got to your video explaining what was happening, and that it was supposed to do that! My doctor recommended this mask because I was not happy with the ResMed n30 nasal cushion which I used for almost 3 months using a chin strap! The cushion starting breaking down and I had to tighten/adjust it so much that it was no longer comfortable! Thank you for your detailed instructions!💯

[@CPAPmyway]

The respiratory therapist suggested I try the Evora since I would rather not have anything on the bridge of my nose. He said it is narrow enough to fit my face, so I will be going to try it soon.

best mask ever but I have 1 issue maybe I'm using it wrong. the mask cut under my nose where my lip meets my nose and another cut at the tip of my nose. is my pressure too high for it.

[@CPAPmyway]

I have heard that from one other person. I think that I will need more feedback to understand why unfortunately.

[@somarvelis]

Habe schon einige masken gehabt aber die evora ff ist mit Abstand die beste Maske....👌👌👌🤙 Grüße aus Germany

[@ratattack1571]

My first mask. I have trouble breathing through my nose. Just clamps it up

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for the input.

[@goodoldgus]

Just started CPAP and really liking this mask. Curious....I'm getting moisture around the seal throughout the night. Enough where I feel the need to remove the mask and dry off my face. I don't believe I'm experiencing "rainout" since I'm not seeing any condensation within the mask or tube. Wondering if I need to adjust the fit or fine tune the moisture settings on my machine? I'm using the ResMed AirSense 10 w/heated tube. Thoughts?

[@CPAPmyway]

I would dial humidity down a notch and see if you can reduce that condensation without drying out.

[@marylayton3835]

Is this compatible w/ ResMed AirSense 11 machine? Also, how does this compare w/ R’s similar F30, which has 2 separate holes for the nostrils? It fit well at bedtime, but shifted when I relaxed my head while sleeping, causing bad leaks.

[@CPAPmyway]

It works great on the AirSense 11. It is similar to the F30 on fit, but they are pretty different on the way they feel. Worth a shot if you would like to use something similar to the F30.

[@DazzlingDanaOfficial]

I realize this is a year after you asked, but there is no divider for the nostrils. One hole for the nose and one hole for the mouth. I really like that there is no divider. Both nostrils get air at all times!

[@Xelerate1]

I'm a bipap user and the only mask I've been able to use so far is the AirTouch F20. I got the Evora today and tested it and I didn't get any leaks at all and it was fantastic but under my nose started hurting quite a lot after 2 hours. I tried 2 sizes and experienced the same issue. I would really appreciate if you could please give me advice. Do you think I'm making the upper straps too tight? I really don't want to have to go back to a full face mask I'm sick of getting redness on the bridge of my nose.

[@bevjd8299]

Hi, I found you need to have the Evora straps not too tight it needs to float on your face as such. Persevere as it really is a great mask and will help you so much if you can overcome these little issues.

[@CPAPmyway]

We have had this feedback from a few users. I would try to loosen it a bit to see if you can strike the performance and comfort balance.

[@popeyegordon]

Over a decade, nasal pillows masks have completely destroyed my nostril cartilage, it took that long to let all of the cartilage develop multiple tears so it is not painful to wear these devices. I hate cpap. No mask has ever fit me without leaking somewhere. Pillows let my mouth fall open and the air rushes out for hours, giving me a horrible three day sinus misery like a bad cold. So I tape my mouth shut or wear very strong uncomfortable non-stretch bands over my mouth and chin. Cpap sucks.

[@shaggs2riches]

I was scrolling too fast and missed your comment. I had just commented that I am experiencing soreness under my nose. Did you manage to find a solution for this?

[@popeyegordon]

@@shaggs2riches That's the problem with that design. It can not be overcome. It has to push upward hard unless your pressure is low, like for a small person. Some people claim that using vaseline will make a seal with less pressure.

[@Toni-ll2fw]

Looking forward to using it. Thanks for the tips

[@CPAPmyway]

You are welcome.

[@hawaiian-cerveza]

I have the f30 and although I can get a good seal over time Ive had to tighten it a lot to keep the seal. Also the 2 holes for breathing sometimes is off and I have a hard time breathing. I cut the bridge off once and it was much easier to breath. I have this coming in today and am excited to try it.

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for the info!

[@hawaiian-cerveza]

@@CPAPmyway I got the Evora and prefer it to the f30. I had to up my pressure by about 4 pts so I didnt feel like I was struggling to breath. Thanks for the review!

[@carlosribeiro3821]

Will this mask work with ResMed heated tube? I've been wanting to get the Resmed F40 mask, but its not available here in Canada. And who knows when it will come here. My cpap supply store has no clue what I was talking about when I mentioned the Resmed F40, he looked at me like I had 2 heads.

[@CPAPmyway]

Works great with any standard or heated tube. Including the ResMed versions.

[@lanebt4670]

I am a caregiver for my husband. This mask does have a good seal, but it is leaving pressure points on my husband's cheeks. I don't have it too tight. I want to know is there something I can get for this mask so it does not cause sores on his face? I looked online, but I haven't found anything that will help with this mask.

[@CPAPmyway]

Unfortunately I am not aware of any mask liners for the Evora Full yet.

[@loisrash2635]

I have been using this mask for a couple months now. And I was beginning to hate it. One of the reasons was I couldn’t figure out how to put it on right way to breathe through both nostrils. Thank you for showing that. I just did it with the way you just did it and worked great. Now reason number two is the plastic frame how do you get it to not dig into you cheeks? It hurts and digs in.

[@CPAPmyway]

Sometimes you can get a wrap to go around the hard part to help. Link to those for you below. cpapmyway.com/store/mask-frame-wrap

[@iSheree]

Were you wearing it too tight? How are you going now?

[@DaveCares]

I was becoming discouraged until I tried this mask yesterday. LOVE IT! I do wish F&P did a better job diffusing the exhalation ports as they are a little noisier than other masks. Question: do configure my CPAP machine as full face or pillow for this mask? Thanks for the great review!

[@CPAPmyway]

You would set it as Full Face. Thank you for watching.

[@747AnanasBoeing747]

Best Mask . Thx . 😊

[@bierakanus5463]

How is this with a mustache and beard? The Vitera works great for me with facial hair but at night the nose bridge rides up on my eyes.

[@CPAPmyway]

it is a toss up. If you are full "80's cop mustache" then you may have trouble with all of the minimal contact style masks. It just cant get the correct seal under the nose if you have a thick mustache in most cases.

[@mikeh704]

I find it very easy to disconnect the cushion from the mask by pulling the BOTTOM of the hard plastic that is attached to the cushion up and away from the mask.

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for the input.

[@jettix]

Thank you for the review. I just got my CPAP, and I kept wondering if I was fitting this mask correctly. One question, how tight do you want the mask fitted? Been having a hard time figuring out the correct tightness

[@CPAPmyway]

So, you have to have it sealed and comfortable. It can take some fine tune adjustment to get it to the point of a good seal without overtightening and causing discomfort.

[@scowell]

With many F&P masks the design wants to be loose... the silicone part inflates like a balloon and creates the seal. Watch some other videos on Evora FF fitting.

[@emarria]

So I just got mine a week ago and the fit is great, but there is a constant (pretty strong) stream of air coming from exhalation holes. Leak is at 0, so did I set something up wrong?

[@CPAPmyway]

The exhalation should be constant. So it sounds like you are doing just fine. You will always feel air coming out of the exhalation holes.

[@serialkiller979]

Yup it's all good it's supposed to do that

[@joannasisemore7184]

the mask sealed well and was okay to sleep in but the sides made my incredibly dry shin bleed. going to try the nasal style evora instead.

[@CPAPmyway]

Awesome! Thanks for watching.

[@davidwilson2214]

This may sound like a dumb question but do you select the "full face mask" selection on the CPAP machine or another one? The Res Med F40 says to select "pillows" and NOT full face mask. I plan to get this Evora mask and wanted to have that info ready when the mask arrives. Have been using ResMed Mirage FX nasal mask for about 7 years and I like it but they are phasing it out. Am curious about a good full mask. Thanks for your reviews. They are well done and very helpful.

[@CPAPmyway]

I do not have any information from fisher on how to set the resmed machine for their mask unfortunately. My gut would say full face, but I am really not sure.

[@jeanb1846]

Where and how does the swivel piece go?

[@CPAPmyway]

It plugs on to the end of your CPAP tube.

[@54lex]

Love the video but nothing ever comes easy for me even trying switch out the medium mask with the larger one. I still can’t figure it out the other sizes don’t have the holes to attach the straps . I’m so damn frustrated right now. The medium one has the holes but not large. Does it slide out or in? Makes no sense.

[@maverick4t]

The plastic which seats the silicon mask rubs up against my underside of my nose and I get boils. I like the mask but the boils are too painful and I don't know how to stretch out the plastic holder. Do you have any ideas I have the largest size holder and I don't know if they make one bigger than that

[@CPAPmyway]

No unfortunately there is not a larger size. You may want to look in to the other minimal contact versions that are similar to this one. Link below will help cpapmyway.com/blog/best-minimal-contact-full-face-cpap-masks

[@homie4235]

Does this work well with high pressure? I have tried this style before (different brand) and it didnt seem to do well with my higher pressure.

[@popeyegordon]

I tried a similar mask that did not go up over the nose like this one. It leaked badly unless it was strapped unbearablyly tight. I have a box of poor fitting masks that I wore less than a week each, $2000 worth of poor fits that were recommeneded. Every damn one of them worked in the doctor's office but never fit right when I laid down at home. CPAP sucks.

[@CPAPmyway]

Sorry that you are having such issues.

[@wendyearwood]

Is there a way to stop the exhalation air or slow it down? It's freezing me! I'd have to wear a scarf to bed to keep it from blowing on me.

[@CPAPmyway]

Unfortunately not. There are some mask options that have a more diffused exhalation, but they all have exhalation.

[@AviMus82]

So the constant air flow coming from the 2 holes even when not exhaling is perfectly normal? Maybe I don’t have a firm grasp of how my cpap works because in my mind it can’t blow air down my airway if it’s constantly blowing air out. It would be weak wouldn’t it?

[@CPAPmyway]

It accounts for the exhalation ports with the pressure. And the exhalation ports are definitely necessary to get rid of you exhaled CO2.

[@pesto12601]

I'm using this mask and was really pleased with it.. however, when I review my data - I find the leak showing in the 50 L/min range... how can I fix this since I don't feel it really leaking anywhere except the air coming out the bottom (though I do occasionally feel like it may be blowing into my eyes a tiny bit).

[@CPAPmyway]

You might want to go down a size on the mask cushion. Link below for reference. If you can not get the leak into the acceptable levels, then you may have to consider another mask.

This evora - vents right out the front of the mask. Tornado volumes of air. Also - the mask - hose seems to transmit vibration (sound) thru the mask/hose - more than my Resmed F30 mask. I can hear the CPAP machine cycling constantly. Its annoying. I'm also not a big fan of the extra little hose and no easy disconnect swivel connector. I had hoped to like the Evora more than I do.

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for the input.

[@pesto12601]

Sounds like you need a new machine... no issues here with resmed 11!

[@Rusty6507]

What machine is that. I cannot find F&P machines in the US. WHY?

[@CPAPmyway]

They are discontinued by F&P here.

[@pitchkapizda8355]

I find the evora extremely comfortable but very load with the air outlets

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for the input.

[@cherryannegunsch785]

I have this problem when the air hits my sheet or blanket so I keep pulling the linens away from my face and neck. Then it is very quiet. But needs readjustment through the night as I wake up to find the linens up close to my face again.

[@susanhaviland2018]

Thank you.

[@CPAPmyway]

You're welcome!

[@naveltaescalera6926]

It’s a great mask, very quiet..

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for the input and for watching.

[@maryholloway6995]

Your video is great. I like the mask but I am getting condensation in the tubing almost every time I use it and that is daily. What if any solutions are there? Thank you

[@CPAPmyway]

We have a great video to help on that. Link below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2bKiGiqq6-SiqM

[@serialkiller979]

Maybe need to lower the humidity I turned mine right off and don't use the water reservoir because I was waking up feeling like my lungs were full of fluid and was Weezy and had to cough several times for the next few hours to clear out my lungs but if you just have moisture in the tube I would imagine that is normal if tube is heated and humidity is on I guess it depends on how much is in there

[@petermedin5935]

Does the work with remed airsense 11 and heated tube?

[@CPAPmyway]

Yes it will work fine with the AirSense 11 and the AirSense 11 heated tubing.

[@dougfriend6810]

I love this mask. But I just cleaned it and now have the worst leaking I’ve ever had! At a loss for why that is happening…

[@CPAPmyway]

I would take it back apart and reassemble. Something must be off on the assembly.

[@dougfriend6810]

@@CPAPmyway turns out the anti asphyxiation flap was stuck open! Took it apart and adjusted, now working great. I’m about 2 months into my therapy and loving this mask so far

[@CPAPmyway]

@@dougfriend6810 Thanks for letting us know. Glad to hear that it worked out!

[@MyBiddie]

Can we have more advice on leaks please and how we know if mask is correct aize

[@NATOxMAN]

I've tried this mask and now I have a sore spot right under my nose

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for the input

[@marvabailey7144]

Your video and instructions are great! It helped me find the correct mask fit without any seepage. My question is when I want to take a drink of water using a straw, what do I release to do so without taking it apart and waking up to turn the light on to reassemble it? I have tried pulling out the tubing, but find it hard to reconnect it.

[@CPAPmyway]

Well that is tough on that mask. NO way other than getting the mask at least a little way off your face to get that straw in there.

[@jamesw7624]

I can’t get on with this mask the vents at the front just leaks air all night long and drives me nuts

[@CPAPmyway]

I understand. May want to look at the F40. Similar style with very well diffused exhalation. Link below. cpapmyway.com/store/cpap-masks/full-face-masks/resmed-airfit-f40-cpap-mask

[@ygb5955]

Thank u for good info

[@CPAPmyway]

Always welcome

[@debbieekes5718]

This has worked the best for me as far as low leakage rate, but I don’t like the front hose, and it really blows a high rate of air at my husband when I’m facing him in bed. I also have to keep it qiuite tight for it to not leak. I have a small face and head. The small medium worked best.

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for sharing

[@joycevince8757]

By the way, the s/m smell too but not as much, so hope I can tolerate it.

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for the input.

[@WickedG5150]

Top-tier mask. Just like the Vitera.

[@CPAPmyway]

Agreed!

[@icepyro1]

I find the air constantly blowing out of the vents to be loud and annoying

[@CPAPmyway]

I understand. Some masks have better diffused exhalation ports. But they all will have a steady flow of air to make sure that your CO2 gets flushed out of the mask.

[@SharpElbows123]

this is the mask they issue in the UK under the NHS, national health service. i didnt like it because my nostrils would suck the silicone in on the edges when inhaliing (long nostrils) and block my nostrils. they should of created a beak like shape that goes over the bulb of the nose and not cut out those ridiculous shapes in L/m/s and instead have one giant cut out.

[@CPAPmyway]

Thanks for the input.

[@paulamitchell2647]

The back neck pressure from mask strap is not tolerable for me. Because of things like stroke, seizure, headache, narcolepsy, cataplexy, epilepsy, etc., I cannot use this type of headgear with that pressure. I had a previous full face without the strap plate on the neck base. This strap shortens wear time considerably. It also keeps me from using my machine entirely some nights.
