Testing CPAP Cleaning Devices - 2501 FDA scientists test devices that claim to use UV light to clean Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machines. To date, UV light has not been proven to be safe or effective for this use. While cleaning your CPAP is important, most CPAPs can be cleaned safely and effectively with mild soap and water as described in the owner’s manual, with some manufacturers recommending the use of diluted vinegar.
