Our Commitment
At CpapSupply.co.uk, we are committed to supplying high-quality CPAP products with clear, transparent aftercare. This policy explains your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and related UK consumer protection regulations.
We strive to make returns fair and efficient while observing hygiene and regulatory requirements specific to medical equipment.
1. Right to Cancel (Change of Mind)
You have the legal right to cancel your order and return eligible products within 30 days of receipt (extended from the statutory minimum of 14 days).
To be eligible:
-
The item must be unopened, unused, and in resalable condition
-
All original packaging, accessories, and instructions must be included
To request a return, contact:
info@cpapsupply.co.uk
Once authorised, you will have 14 days to return the item(s). Items returned late or without prior authorisation may be declined.
2. Hygiene & Return Exemptions
For safety and regulatory compliance, many items are non-returnable once opened, unless they are confirmed as faulty. These include:
-
CPAP masks (nasal, full face, pillow)
-
CPAP machines and humidifiers
-
Tubing and air filters
-
Water chambers and sealed accessories
-
Any product marked “non-returnable if opened”
Please check compatibility or contact us before opening if unsure.
Note: Certain items (e.g., masks with "Mask Fit Insurance") may be refundable even if opened. This will be clearly stated on the relevant product page.
3. Faulty Items & Warranty Coverage
If a product is found to be faulty:
-
Within 30 days: We will offer a replacement or full refund
-
After 30 days: The item will be repaired or replaced under the manufacturer’s warranty
Typical warranty periods:
-
CPAP machines and humidifiers – 2 years
-
Masks, tubing, and filters – 3 months (classified as consumables)
If we are unable to repair or replace an item within the warranty period, you may receive:
-
A full refund (if within 6 months)
-
A partial refund (after 6 months, based on remaining warranty value)
Warranty claims must be submitted in writing and include your order number, product details, and fault description.
