Distilled water will prevent the calcium build up in your chamber and extend the life span of your water chamber while also having a positive effect on your CPAP therapy.

Is the water chamber dishwasher safe?
The chamber is made out of a material that can be used in the dishwasher, but it is not recommended. There is a silicone seal in the middle of the chamber that can be damaged by frequent use in the dishwasher, so it is recommended that you wash your chamber with warm water and a mild detergent.
How often should I be cleaning the chamber and replacing the water?
Daily! While distilled water will help prevent calcium build up, it is still recommended that you change the water every day for best results, and to make sure you scrub and clean your chamber daily.
