How do I use the Lumin CPAP cleaner ?
Lumin CPAP sanitizer is a single button
device. It really could not be any easier.
First wipe the inside of your mask and cushion with a wipe to remove any physical residue. If
cleaning your humidifier water chamber, open the chamber and place it in the drawer face up. If
cleaning your mask, lay your mask in the drawer face up. Close the drawer and press the button.
In 5 minutes the cycle is complete and your mask and water chamber are ready for use.
How often do I need to clean my CPAP accessories?
You should take care to maintain a proper CPAP cleaning schedule for your machine’s
accessories. 3B recommends that you clean your CPAP accessories at least twice a week. A
quick 5 minute cleaning cycle will ensure that your accessories are ready to use. In addition,
always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for continued care of your equipment to
maximize the life of your machine, mask and accessories.
Does Lumin come with a warranty?
Yes, Lumin is backed by 3B Medical’s comprehensive two year warranty.
Is Lumin covered by Medicare or Insurance?
No, at this point in time, neither Medicare nor private insurers are covering cleaning devices for
CPAP equipment.
Can I pay for Lumin using an HSA or FSA?
Yes, Lumin is eligible for purchase under both HSA and FSA.
Will Lumin damage my CPAP mask or accessories?
No. While long exposure times to UVC can weaken plastics and silicone, the Lumin cycle time
is only 5 minutes. One year of daily use amounts to 30 hours of actual exposure time. In
accelerated aging tests, 3B has validated no damage to plastics or silicone in over 150 hours of
testing, roughly equivalent to 5 years of daily use.
