Fisher & Paykel SleepStyle Mask Leak — Evora & Vitera Fit Tips

Hello. This guide covers mask leak troubleshooting specific to Fisher & Paykel SleepStyle and ICON CPAP users, with tips for the F&P Evora, Vitera, and Solo mask series. Fisher & Paykel Mask Design Philosophy. F&P masks use their RollFit seal technology — a rolling silicone cushion that adjusts to facial movement during sleep. This design reduces the need for tight headgear straps. If you are overtightening your F&P mask, you are likely making the leak worse. Step 1: Check your session report on the SleepStyle display or F&P SleepStyle app. The SleepStyle machine reports a seal icon on the morning summary. A green icon indicates a good seal. An amber or red icon indicates significant leakage overnight. Step 2: For Evora nasal mask — check the RollFit cushion position. The Evora's cushion should roll slightly inward to form its seal. If the cushion is pushed too flat against the face, the seal breaks. Loosen headgear straps until the mask sits naturally without being forced flat. Step 3: For Vitera full face mask — check the forehead support. The Vitera's forehead pad position affects the angle of the mask against your face. Adjust the forehead support height so the mask sits centered on your face without tilting up or down. Even a small tilt creates a gap. Step 4: For Solo nasal pillow mask — ensure the pillows are fully seated. The Solo uses two small nasal pillows that insert directly into the nostrils. If the pillows are the wrong size — too small or too large — the seal fails. F&P provides small, medium, and large pillows. Test one size up or down from your current size. Step 5: Wash your mask cushion every night. F&P RollFit silicone degrades faster when skin oils accumulate. Rinse the cushion under warm water each morning and pat dry. Once per week, wash with mild soap and rinse thoroughly. Step 6: Use SensAwake for movement-related leaks. Fisher & Paykel SleepStyle and ICON machines include SensAwake technology, which detects when you are waking up and automatically lowers pressure to prevent disturbance. This can reduce pressure-driven leaks when you change position during arousal. If leaks remain persistent after these adjustments, your DME provider can perform a live F&P mask fitting and test different sizes of Evora or Vitera cushions. Still need help?
