Well a basic test to ensure you have a proper seal doesn't require anything. Every time you use your mask you should test to ensure a good seal, just block the canister inlet with your hand and inhale and hold your breath, the facepiece should collapse against your face. If it does you have a good seal if it doesn't adjust and tighten your straps and try it again until it does.

I go for the "Total Recall" test - block the cannister intakes and
breathe in and if you think you probably look like Arnold Schwarzenegger
rolling around on the surface of Mars, then the respirator's sealing
pretty well. Rodney Dangerfield works too...

Well I have to get a 1/2 mask because I wear glasses! You have to do a special glasses holder with your script in them...too expensive so I am going to have to get a 1/2 mask.
Great advice on this subject. |
