Is Your CPAP Mask Whistling? Here’s How You Fix It
Whether you’re a recently diagnosed sleep apnea patient or a veteran CPAP machine user, you might experience whistling noises that come from your CPAP machine setup. This is a common problem that is not cause for concern, but it is certainly hard to ignore and annoying after awhile. Usually it’s an easy fix, so try troubleshooting from this list to determine what might be the root of the whistling problem.

The Mask Doesn’t Fit Right
The whistling you’re hearing is most likely due to leaking air somewhere along the way between your CPAP machine and your airways. If you already experience additional signs of a leaking mask, such as dry eyes from pressurized air blowing into them, then you’re hearing your CPAP mask whistling from air leaks.
The solution: If you have a whistling CPAP mask, first try tightening the mask to recreate the seal. You might even need a different size or a different mask altogether. The easiest way to remember when it’s time to change masks is to sign-up for a CPAP subscription service, which delivers new masks on the recommended schedule.
The Hose Isn’t Connected Right
It is entirely possible that the hose simply needs to be reconnected to the machine and/or the mask. The whistling is the sound of leaking air, so once you can stop the leak, you also stop the irritating sound that probably led you to search for this guide.
The solution: Try to disconnect and reconnect the hose at both ends, which may reestablish the seal and eliminate whistling.
The Hose Needs to Be Replaced
Most whistling problems come from the CPAP tubing, as hoses are prone to tiny holes from normal wear and tear. Mineral deposits, extra moisture and daily use all contribute to the breakdown of CPAP hoses, which is why they need to be replaced on a set schedule. To determine if you hose has holes in it, fill it with water and plug both ends. Water will leak from the holes, if there are any.
The solution: It’s time to replace the hose, which is especially recommended if you’ve been using it longer than your doctor instructed.
The CPAP Machine Is too Loud
It might be because of a high setting or the model of your CPAP machine, but the machine itself could be the source of the whistling. It is imperative that you get restful sleep to alleviate the symptoms of sleep apnea, but this may not be possible if your machine is too loud.
The solution: There are several CPAP machines on the market, so you can find one that is quieter. It is always a worthwhile investment if it will help you sleep, and—if applicable—your partner will reap the benefits of peace and quiet as well.
