Frequently Asked Questions - Nasal Pillow Masks

Who are nasal pillows best for?

They suit sleepers who breathe mainly through the nose and want the lightest setup possible. The minimal contact helps if you wear glasses, read at bedtime, or dislike bulk around the nose bridge. If you routinely mouth-breathe, start with humidification and a gentle chin strap; if leaks persist, a different mask style may be more dependable.

Do nasal pillows work at higher pressures?

Many users do fine at moderate–higher pressures with the correct pillow size and balanced headgear. If you feel “jetting” or soreness, try one size up, fine-tune strap tension with airflow on, and raise humidification. If comfort still suffers at very high pressures, compare a nasal or full-face design.

How do I stop nostril soreness or dryness?

Size correctly (snug at the nares, never forced in), fit while air is flowing, and increase humidification. A slightly larger pillow or a diffuser vent can soften airflow. Daily cleaning removes oils that break the seal and cause irritation; replace worn pillows on schedule.

Why do I hear whistling or feel leaks?

That’s usually a size or seating issue. With your device running, lift and reseat the pillows so they “float” into place, then make small, even strap changes. Inspect the short tube and swivel for kinks, and refresh worn pillows—tired silicone leaks and whistles.

Can I use nasal pillows with facial hair?

Yes—because the seal sits at the nostrils, moustaches generally aren’t a problem. Keep the area clean/dry before bed, size accurately, and avoid over-tightening, which distorts the pillow shape and causes leaks.

What if I sometimes mouth-breathe?

Try tongue-to-palate positioning, adequate humidification, and a light chin strap. If mouth leak remains frequent despite those tweaks, a nasal or full-face mask will usually give a more reliable seal.

How often should I replace parts?

As a guide: pillows every 1–3 months, headgear every 6–12 months. Replace sooner if you notice yellowing, loss of “bounce,” or recurring leaks after a proper refit.

Nasal Pillows — Fit, Comfort & Care

Getting the seal right

Seat pillows with airflow on so they inflate into the nostrils, then make small, even strap adjustments. Fit in your sleep position to prevent edge leaks when you roll.

Comfort tweaks that help

Humidification reduces dryness; a lightweight hose clip prevents tugging; diffuser vents soften noise for light sleepers.

Cushion materials & upkeep

Washable silicone lasts longer; memory-foam-style tips feel gentler but are wipe-clean only and replaced more often.

Brand notes

Popular Canadian picks include minimal-contact families from ResMed, Fisher & Paykel, and Philips Respironics—choose by feel, then follow the sizing guide.

When to switch styles

If mouth breathing is habitual or high-pressure comfort never settles, test a nasal or full-face design.
