Product overview
The React Health RIO II™ Facial CPAP Mask is an interface that covers the nose and mouth with a cushion positioned under the nose. It is available in three sizes: S, M, and L.
Detailed product description
The RIO II™ Facial CPAP Mask combines a low-contact design with an under-the-nose cushion to free the nasal bridge. This design may be appealing to users who want a facial mask while also limiting contact on the top of the nose.
The modular frame accommodates all three cushion sizes. Choosing the right size remains essential for achieving a good seal and adequate comfort.
The circular ventilation distributes the exhaled air around the mask and helps reduce noise. The quick-release clips are non-magnetic.

Respiratory Therapist Tips - My CPAP Expert©
Clinical Perspectives
The right size is just as important as the choice of model. A mask that is too large or too small can compromise the seal and comfort.
The mask must be adjusted enough to maintain the seal without being excessively tight.
This product may not be the best choice for you if you prefer a nasal-only or nasal interface, or if your morphology does not allow you to achieve a satisfactory seal.
Common Mistakes
❌ Over-tightening the headgear to correct a leak.
❌ Choosing a size solely because it seems more comfortable at first.
❌ Neglecting the sleeping position.
❌ Replacing only the full mask when the problem comes from the cushion or the headgear.
Fitting Tips
The mask must be adjusted enough to maintain the seal without unnecessarily tightening the face. It should be adjusted to the position in which you sleep, ideally with the appropriate therapeutic pressure when possible.
The headgear must provide sufficient support without being excessively tight. Overtightening can impair comfort and does not necessarily guarantee a better seal.
Adherence Tips
A comfortable mask generally promotes a better treatment experience. If you regularly remove your mask during the night, if you have significant leaks, or if you feel discomfort, a reassessment of the fit may be relevant.
Situations Where the RIO II™ May Be Particularly Interesting
- mouth breathing;
- need for a nose + mouth interface;
- discomfort with an interface exerting more pressure on the nasal bridge;
- need to test different sizes;
- looking for a different full face mask geometry.
This Product May Not Be the Best Choice for You If…
- you are looking for a minimalist interface;
- you breathe comfortably exclusively through your nose;
- you are particularly sensitive to the sensation of a full face mask;
- another mask architecture better suits your morphology or your
This product may not be the best choice for you if you breathe exclusively through your nose and prefer a smaller and less covering interface, if the facial contact of a full face mask bothers you, or if your morphology does not allow you to achieve a good seal despite proper adjustment.
Care and Replacement
Manufacturer Care Tips
After each use, disassemble the components according to the manufacturer's instructions and clean the mask components, except for the headgear, in lukewarm water at approximately 30 °C with a mild and unscented liquid dish detergent for a maximum of 10 minutes.
- Gently clean the ventilation openings with a soft-bristle brush.
- Rinse with potable water and leave to air dry, away from direct sunlight.
- The headgear and components must be hand-washed every week.
- Do not use bleach, chlorine, alcohol, aromatic products, moisturizers, antibacterial agents, or scented oils.
My CPAP Expert© Care Tips
- Daily cleaning of the mask components with lukewarm water and mild unscented detergent.
- Weekly cleaning of the headgear.
- Avoid products containing alcohol, chlorine, bleach, scented oils, or antibacterial agents.
- Replace components when they show visible deterioration or when they no longer allow proper operation.
Replacement Schedule
The exact schedule should be determined based on:
- manufacturer recommendations;
- condition of the component;
- frequency of use;
- applicable insurance coverage;
- replacement practices recommended by the care team.
Decision Guide
Choose the size when this dimension allows for a stable and comfortable seal.
If you have to tighten the mask firmly to prevent leaks, first check the size and positioning.
Consult a respiratory therapist if leaks persist despite proper adjustment, if the mask becomes uncomfortable, or if you have difficulty determining the right size.
Why choose the ASC Clinic as your respiratory health partner?
Because the goal is not simply to choose a mask, but to find a configuration that you can truly use comfortably and regularly.
My CPAP Expert© helps you choose the right size and understand the signs indicating that an adjustment or replacement is necessary.
