For patients who have been diagnosed and treated for sleep apnoea a long time, they may remember the older Fisher & Paykel's SleepStyle range of CPAP machines.  Even back then, Fisher & Paykel, used to have built-in humidifiers in those older machines, and fast forward to today... following the popular Icon machines, they have now brought back the name 'SleepStyle' to their newest machines - still with a built-in humidifier and a heated tube!

Whilst not the cheapest CPAP machines on the market, the Fisher & Paykel machines are still renowned for being the leaders in heated humidification.  Breathing comfort is also paramount in Fisher & Paykel's machines, and as well as having Expiratory Relief, similar to other manufacturers' CPAP machines (to relieve the pressure on exhalation), they also have their SensAwake™ technology so that when the machines sense you are awake, the pressure is automatically reduced to help you go back to sleep comfortably.

As well as including a InfoUSB stick to upload therapy data directly to a clinic, Fisher & Paykel also have a detailed app available for both Android and Apple mobiles so that you can see how your therapy is going.  Get started here https://sleepstyle.fphcare.com/

Comfort meets simplicity 

The SleepStyle CPAP machine really is simple and very easy to set up, and it was even awarded an 'Ease of Use Commendation' by the American Arthritis Foundation. 

The beginning of anything can be difficult and it can take some time to adjust to it. CPAP therapy is no different and Fisher & Paykel have worked hard to understand the daily interactions patients will have have with their new SleepStyle machine, and have made these as easy as possible, to get set up and started simply!

*Note that the only difference between the CPAP and AutoCPAP (APAP) is the fact that the CPAP only provides therapy with pre-set fixed CPAP pressures, whereas the Auto (APAP) version runs at automatic pressures which vary.  The fixed CPAP version requires prescribed pressures by a sleep clinic or consultant and the APAP version will treat with automatic pressures as 'sensed' by the machine when breathing events may happen.

IMPORTANT NOTES:-

This SleepStyle is not certified for using on an aircraft, but can be taken onboard and should be classed as a medical device and not included as extra hand luggage, but to be safe always check with the airline you are flying with and placing one of our CPAP & Ventilator Luggage Tags can certainly help at check-in.  The SleepStyle can be powered with the Atom Battery for times of power cuts, camping or off-grid by using the 3-pin UK plug attached to the CPAP machine, but using the humidifier will cut down on battery power.

ORDERS

We try our best to ship all orders received by us Monday-Friday on the same working day if received before 12 noon, and more often than not orders processed before 3 pm will be despatched the same day whenever possible.  Weekend or UK bank holiday orders are sent out the next working day.  An automated email is sent when products have been despatched so please check your spam box and add us to your safe senders list.  Also, if you do not receive an email confirmation, please check that you have typed the correct email address in your account.

All orders are sent via 1st class mail within the UK.  Masks and some other more expensive products are always sent via 'signed for' insured delivery and cannot be left in 'safe' places, but there is the option for an alternative shipping address when processing the orders.   International orders are sent via tracked Airmail, and whilst we're happy to ship internationally, we cannot be held responsible for any charges that may be added in your own country.

Delivery charges are worked out automatically by weight and you can clearly see the delivery charges before purchase.  On the rare occasion delivery charges are miscalculated by the website, a refund will be sent, as it is not our policy to make money on postage charges and neither do we add the cost of delivery into the price and offer so-called  'free delivery' like some sites and Ebay pressurise sellers to do!

Wherever possible with larger parcels, we try to re-use boxes to keep shipping costs down and protect the environment.

If a product is out of stock and the order contains multiple items, the 'in stock' items will be sent immediately and further items will follow upon arrival with no further postage charges incurred.  

RETURNS

Masks, CPAP machines and and most other products are exempt from a refund or exchange unless faulty due to health and hygiene issues (as stated in our 'Terms and Conditions'), and in particular due to the risk of cross contamination as they cannot be re-sold. The Consumer Contracts Regulations 28.(3)(a) confirms exemption as follows:-  "exemption in the case of a contract for the supply of sealed goods which are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons, if they become unsealed after delivery."

Unopened (sealed) products in their original packing can be returned within 14 days for a refund of the product cost, but the purchaser is to pay the return postage, and we would advise retaining proof of postage.  This excludes any faulty goods, for which postage will be reimbursed.  A full refund for the price of the product will be issued when received by us, less the original postage charges when the order was sent to you.

VAT DECLARATION/INFORMATION

Most of the products we sell are eligible for Zero Rated VAT in the UK and Europe, and in order to qualify, you should meet the criteria for the following HMRC VAT Declaration:-

1. You or the person you are purchasing on behalf of have "a condition which the medical profession treats as a chronic sickness," (sleep apnoea and sleep disordered breathing, which require therapy, are such conditions).
    
2. "The goods or services are for the personal or domestic use of the customer."

We cannot advise on individual cases, but more information can be found on HMRC’s website under notice 701/7 on the following link  https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/vat-notice-7017-vat-reliefs-for-disabled-people. 

If you are purchasing on behalf of someone else who meets the above criteria, you must provide their name and address, and you will be prompted of this during the checkout process.

Customers living outside of Europe do not pay UK VAT charges, so please leave the the 'zero rate eligibility' box ticked.  However, we cannot be held responsible for any additional costs incurred when the products reach your own country.

If you are purchasing with the intention of re-selling any products, you are liable to pay VAT on all products so you must untick the 'zero rate eligibility' box which will add VAT to your order.

Any products that our not eligible for zero rate VAT, will not display the VAT Declaration, and VAT will be added at checkout.

CPAP and APAP Machines are a prescription item and we cannot release them until we have signed permission from your sleep clinic or a prescription from a sleep professional.

If you do have a prescription already, you can email it to us at sales@hope2sleep.co.uk or send it via post to the address on our 'contact us' page

If you do not have an existing prescription we have a downloadable form on the link below.   Please fill in your name and address on the form which can then be taken to, sent to or emailed to your clinic, as without approval we cannot release any CPAP machines. 

As soon as we have this permission you can purchase a CPAP machine, or we will  send your machine if you have already placed your order.  Please email the completed form back to us as soon as possible after placing an order to sales@hope2sleep.co.uk so that we can arrange delivery to you.

Please note that if your clinic have instructed us to change any settings on the machine, this will be done by us prior to sending the CPAP out to you.
