CPAP machines work wonders for people with obstructive sleep apnea. It can help you get some much-needed rest while it maintains your airway.
The trade-off is that you need to clean the machine daily. You are breathing through this machine and apparatus, so you don’t want any germs or mold lingering.
Cleaning can be a bit of a hassle without a machine. You need to wash, rinse, and dry the tube, headgear, cushion, and reservoir. If you don’t dry out the tube and cushions, then you will end up with fungal growth.
To make it all a bit easier, CPAP cleaners have sprung up on the market. They use a variety of different cleaning and sanitizing methods to get rid of the bacteria.
We’re going to take a look at one CPAP cleaner on the market today. The Respify cleaner is made by Respify and uses O-zone to get rid of the bacteria.
Product Description
‘Small in size, big in performance, Respify harnesses the power of Activated Oxygen (O3/Ozone) to neutralize bacteria and odor in sleep equipment, without the work and mess.’ – Respify
The key thing about this product is that it uses activated oxygen to disinfect the equipment rather than UV light.
Activated oxygen has been used for a great number of years in a variety of industries including pool cleaning, food processing, brewing, and laundry services. It is one of the fastest-acting disinfectants available.
Availability & Pricing
The Respify cleaner is only available from the Respify website and other CPAP retailers. You won’t find it on Amazon or other large retailers.
You may be able to buy your cleaner from the same supplier as your CPAP machine. Not all CPAP retailers supply cleaners.
Performance
The best thing about this cleaner is the incredibly portable size. The bag measures 14” x 18” so it can fit all of your CPAP kit easily. It also folds down to wallet size which is super handy for traveling.
The cleaning machine is only 3” x 3” and can slip inside a pocket or a handbag. Again, this is ideal for traveling. Lugging a CPAP around no mean feat, but this cleaner makes the job a bit easier.
Customer Reviews
There are a limited amount of reviews available for this cleaner but those that are available are really quite positive.
Most customers are very happy with how much easier this makes their daily cleaning routine. They find the operation to be incredibly simple and highly effective.
A number of these happy users also mention traditionally cleaning the equipment at least once a week. As annoying as this may be, the Respify cleaner does reduce the frequency with which extended cleaning needs to happen.

The Respify, CPAP cleaner is a nifty bit of kit that can make CPAP maintenance easier. It is not a complete solution but it does the best possible job.
