The Luna G3 BPAP 25A by React Health (formerly 3B Medical) is a compact bilevel positive airway pressure device — also known as a BiPAP or BPAP machine — that’s designed to treat sleep apnea.
Unlike a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine, which produces one fixed level of pressurized air, this Luna BiPAP machine delivers different air pressure levels for inhalation and exhalation.
We’ll examine this machine’s features and performance so you and your doctor can make an informed decision about whether it meets your needs.

Shop NowOther Models in the Luna Series
There are several other Luna models in React Health’s line of positive airway pressure (PAP) machines, including the Luna II Auto CPAP and the Luna G3 BPAP 30VT. Each device has unique features targeting specific therapy needs.
- Luna II Auto CPAP: This device in the Luna series is an automatic positive airway pressure (APAP) machine, meaning it automatically adjusts air pressure within a prescribed range based on the user’s breathing patterns. The design includes a top-mounted navigation system, heated humidification, and a ramp mode that gradually increases the air pressure when the machine is turned on.
- Luna G3 APAP: The Luna G3 APAP is an upgraded version of the Luna II. Front-facing navigation allows for easy adjustments, and it comes with heated tubing designed to prevent excess condensation from forming in the hose or your mask.
- Luna G3 BPAP 30VT: This top-of-the-line BiPAP machine has front-facing navigation and features several advanced algorithms, including a mode that helps you breathe if the machine detects that the user has stopped breathing for a set period of time.
What You Need to Know About the Luna G3 BPAP 25A Machine
As a BiPAP machine, the Luna G3 BPAP 25A delivers higher pressure when you breathe in and lower pressure when you breathe out. The two pressure levels are programmed based on a doctor’s prescription following a titration study.
The lower expiratory pressure feels more comfortable for some people, which is why BiPAP therapy is sometimes prescribed for those who have difficulty tolerating fixed-pressure CPAP therapy.
This Luna BiPAP machine has front-facing navigation, a built-in humidifier, and audible leak detection alerts. It also provides a breakdown of usage time, mask seal quality, and respiratory events, and this data can be transmitted over cellular networks or saved onto an SD card to share with your physician. You can set automatic reminders to change out your mask, tubing, and air filter.
What Comes With It
The Luna G3 BPAP 25A includes an integrated humidifier that adds moisture to the air produced by the machine and heated tubing designed to prevent condensation. It also comes with a power cord, a reusable filter, an SD memory card to store data, and a carrying bag to keep the components organized.

Size and Cost of This Machine
