The AirTouch F20 CPAP Mask is an alternative version to the popular AirFit F20 full face mask. The AirTouch F20 has a foam cushion instead of the silicone cushion found on the AirFit F20. The foam cushion is great against skin irritations and is great for users who may be sensitive to silicone cushions.

The key difference between the AirTouch F20 and the original AirFit F20 lies in the cushion. Unlike traditional silicone, the AirTouch F20 features a memory foam layer that seals against the face, offering a superior fit and seal. The memory foam cushion is great for users who are sensitive to silicone cushions.
Because of the foam's nature, it cannot be washed like a standard mask. Instead, it should be wiped daily, with the cushion designed to last only 30 days before needing replacement.
The AirTouch F20 shares the same frame and headgear as the AirFit™ F20, making the cushions between the two models interchangeable. This allows current F20 users to try the UltraSoft memory foam cushion with their existing mask, and AirTouch F20 users can switch to the silicone AirFit F20 cushion if they choose. The one-size frame is compatible with all three sizes of F20 cushions.
The AirTouch F20 headgear connects to the mask frame using magnetic headgear clips for ease of use. The magnetic clips lock into place easily onto the frame making for quick placement and removal of the mask.
ResMed’s magnetic clips are compliant with safety guidelines for magnetic field exposure levels for public use. For patients who have active medical implants, such as pacemakers or implantable defibrillators, it is recommended that the clips be kept at least 2 inches (50 mm) away from implants to avoid any potential interference. The magnetic clips are not suitable for use in cases where patients have a metallic hemostatic clip implanted in the head to repair an aneurysm, or a metallic splinter in one or both eyes.
The Airtouch F20 mask elbow is easily added or removed from the mask using the built-in tabs. Simply press the tabs and pull the elbow off of the mask, and click back in to put back in place. This makes it easier when having to get up in the middle of your therapy and disconnecting for your machine.
The elbow has numerous ports around the elbow allowing air to flow in various directions, making for quieter and less forceful exhalation.
