This really sucks.
The foam disintegrated in humidity but a CPAP uses water to humidify the air that’s pumping, right?
That’s correct, but a lot of foams and soft plastics are also inherently unstable under normal conditions. Many consumer products have foams or soft rubbery exteriors that will quickly breakdown in a matter of years. These products should just be banned, they just contribute to landfill waste and planned obsolescence.
Not to mention
Not only was the foam dysfunctional, the material was fucking carcinogenic.
