If your CPAP machine stops working in the middle of the night, it can quickly disrupt your sleep and leave you feeling tired, foggy, and uncomfortable the next day. Reliable CPAP therapy is essential for managing sleep apnea and keeping your airway open throughout the night, so fixing issues quickly is important.
Start with simple troubleshooting. Check that the power cord is secure and the outlet works. Look for mask or tubing leaks, low or overfilled water in the humidifier chamber, clogged filters, or error messages on the machine. Many common problems can be solved with quick adjustments or replacement parts.
If the issue continues, contact your Durable Medical Equipment (DME) provider first for repairs or replacement supplies. Reach out to your doctor if symptoms worsen or you need pressure setting changes. You can also call the manufacturer’s helpline for technical support.
