What You Need to Know About the ResMed Quattro FX Full Face CPAP Mask
The ResMed Quattro FX is a full-face CPAP mask that’s designed to cover both the nose and mouth, ensuring people with sleep apnea receive consistent airflow even if they breathe through their mouth during CPAP therapy.
The mask includes a cushion, frame, headgear, and a swivel elbow connection that attaches to your CPAP tubing. A standout feature is ResMed’s dual-wall Spring Air cushion that’s designed to evenly distribute pressure and reduce discomfort and red marks on the bridge of the nose.
The cushion ensures a snug fit, while the frame and adjustable headgear provide stability. The swivel is designed to prevent hose tangles when shifting positions.

Using This CPAP Mask
The Quattro FX Full Face Mask is highly versatile, fitting seamlessly with most CPAP machines, humidifiers, and hoses. Most CPAP masks and machines use a standard 22-millimeter cuff connector, which makes them generally compatible with one another.
One notable exception is the ResMed AirMini, a travel CPAP machine that’s only compatible with certain ResMed masks in the company’s AirFit and AirTouch series.
The ResMed Quattro FX is designed to be universally compatible, which includes most heated tubing options on the market.
According to ResMed, the Quattro FX Full Face CPAP Mask can handle therapy pressures between 4 and 30 centimeters of water pressure (cm H2O). This represents the full pressure range for positive airway pressure therapies, including bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPAP).
ResMed recommends hand-washing the disassembled mask cushion and frame on a daily basis with warm water and mild soap. The company suggests using a brush with soft bristles to clean the mask’s vent. The headgear should be hand-washed once a week, though it doesn’t need to be disassembled prior to cleaning. All mask components should be rinsed with potable water and fully air dried before subsequent use.
