The AirFit N30i is one of ResMed’s newest nasal masks. With the top-of-the-head tube connection, the N30i offers freedom to sleep in any position by eliminating mask bulk. The curved under-the-nose cushion gently aligns with your nose for added comfort and reduced leaks. Lastly, the innovative ribbed design of the frame allows the N30i to fit most face shapes while still providing stability throughout the night.

Which AirFit Nasal Mask is Best for You? 

While all four ResMed AirFit nasal masks are popular with our customers, there are a few key differences that will matter depending on your needs. The ResMed AirFit N30 offers the least amount of facial contact, but it did receive some complaints of leakage in certain sleeping positions. The AirFit N20 didn’t fare well with side sleepers despite being one of the most popular masks. And the AirFit N10 did not fit all face shapes.
