CPAP pressure explained
Signs Your CPAP Pressure May Be Off
Your CPAP pressure setting determines how effectively air keeps your airway open during sleep. If the pressure is too low, your airway may collapse. If it’s too high, it can cause discomfort.
Finding the right setting is key to sleeping comfortably and getting the full benefit of therapy.
Signs Your CPAP Pressure May Be Off:
- Still snoring or waking up gasping
- Feeling tired despite using CPAP
- Dry mouth or sore throat
- Trouble exhaling against pressure
- Air leaks or mask discomfort

If your current machine is older or can't be adjusted to the pressure you need, an upgrade might be the easier fix.
