SoClean Class Action Lawsuit Claims CPAP Cleaning Machines Not Safe For Human Use
Case joins other SoClean class action lawsuit filings, alleging consumers were misled about the safety of the CPAP cleaning machines
A class action lawsuit filed earlier this week claims that SoClean CPAP cleaning machines are not safe, since they emit high levels of ozone gas that should not be used around by humans or animals.
Dale Vernon, Sr. filed the complaint (PDF) on Monday in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Ohio, seeking class action status to pursue damages on behalf of himself and other purchasers of the CPAP cleaning machines.
SoClean has been marketed as a safe way to sterilize and deodorize CPAP machines, which are used by individuals with sleep apnea. However, to be effective at cleaning the CPAP machines, SoClean uses high levels of ozone gas, which may pose serious health risks for consumers, according to allegations raised by Vernon.
The lawsuit alleges that SoClean deceived consumers by claiming what the devices emitted was “activated oxygen.” In reality, which SoClean later admitted, the devices were emitting high levels of ozone, which is the principle ingredient of concern in smog.
“The SoClean devices work by generating ozone to sterilize and deodorize CPAP machines. Ozone (O3) is an unstable toxic gas with a pungent characteristic odor that can kill bacteria and viruses,” Vernon’s lawsuit notes. “To be effective as a germicide, ozone must be present in a concentration far greater than can be safely tolerated by humans or animals.”
Vernon indicates he purchased a SoClean 2 CPAP cleaning device in 2017, to clean his ResMed CPAP machine. He says he paid a premium price because of how SoClean presented “activated oxygen” as being safe and effective. Vernon’s complaint says he would not have purchased the device if he’d have known the truth about its ozone emissions and the potential health risks they represent.
The class action seeks to damages for all individuals nationwide who purchased SoClean CPAP machines, indicating that the manufacturer’s false representations have actually deceived and harmed individual consumers.
Concerns About SoClean CPAP Cleaning Devices
The complaint joints a growing number of SoClean lawsuits seeking class action status, which have been brought since concerns about the safety of the machines that emerged last year, in the wake of a massive Philips CPAP machine recalls.
Philips Respironics recalled millions of CPAP sleep apnea machines that contained a polyester-based polyethylene sound abatement foam, which has now been found to degrade and break down, releasing toxic particles directly in the users air pathways. This has been linked to a number of severe and potentially life-threatening side effects for users, including a potential risk of cancer from the Philips CPAP machines.

At the time of the recall, Philips made several statements suggesting that ozone CPAP cleaners like SoClean may cause the sound abatement foam to break down. While SoClean has maintained that the foam problems were the result of poor design choices by Philips, and not their sanitizing machine, many lawsuits allege that SoClean withheld information about the side effects that result from the high levels of ozone gas necessary to clean a CPAP.
In January, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation centralized all SoClean CPAP sanitizing device lawsuits in the Western District of Pennsylvania for pretrial proceedings as part of a MDL, or multidistrict litigation. The cases are centralized before U.S. District Judge Joy Flowers Conti, who is also overseeing a MDL established for the growing number of Philips CPAP lawsuits filed over injuries and exposure to the toxic sound abatement foam.

My original pulmonary doctor retired about 2 years ago but I did purchase my machine from that office. The nurse practitioner gave me a number to call for info. I called the number and spoke with a man that said the problem wasn’t with the machine but with the owner’s manual regarding instructions and they are sending me a new manual and an adapter for the machine. Stay tuned! As of right now I don’t know what to do.

This forum is such B.S. SoClean DOES NOT damage you unit and it DOES NOT cause harm to any component. Hospitals and food processing factories use ozone to sanitize. You use SoClean on the 7 minute cycle, then when you get ready to use your CPAP, turn it on so it blows air through it for a few seconds to push out any of the remaining cleaning fumes.

People who say that you don't just breathe in the O-zone from the S-Clean Machine don't really understand how thoroughly it contaminates the machine and the tubes. I bought a So-Clean Machine in 2018 and used it as recommended with my ResMed 10 until April of 2021. I started to develop mysterious rashes and hives in October of 2020 that were unable to be diagnosed by many medical professionals.

I started to develop mysterious rashes and hives in October of 2020 that were unable to be diagnosed by many medical professionals. The Dr's and I took every medical course of action to resolve my problems (which were many due to the OZone exposure). Through a process of elimination until April of 2021, we came to the realization that the constant exposure to the So-Clean Machine's O-Zone was the real cause of the medial issues. I stopped using the So-Clean Machine in April 2021 and i have to live with the residual medical issues to this day!

The report states "Failure due to Ozone contamination in the PB assy." Prior to this, I had been using a SoClean2 machine for several years that fed the O3 through the tube/check-valve provided into the water chamber as instructed [having the special cover with an inlet nipple], thru the CPAP machine, the hose & out the mask. I then changed to using a bag type device that connects [inside the bag] to the hose and passes the Ozone out the mask, and out the bag vent [not through the machine]. SoClean shows no interest in reimbursing me for the damage caused to my CPAP machine or for a return of the O3 machine because the warrantee has expired.

Tonight while trying to find a contact number for So Clean customer service, I discovered that they are being sued for faulty equipment. My SC machine has been making some crazy noise. I'm already involved in the Phillips suit.

I have had a So Clean for many years and have always noticed that smell. I asked about it but was told it’s the “clean smell”. I have constant sinus and upper respiratory problems. I just never feel good. Will stop using it and was it like I used to. How do I join this law suit?

I have had a SoClean for more than 5 years and have experienced headaches, shortness of breath, and erratic heartbeats. After reading about this today I will no longer use it !

How do I join this lawsuit. I'm looking into purchasing a uv cleaner. The so clean smells horrible and I've noticed that the slightest cold gets so bad I end up on several medications with the cough lingering.

Yes, the smell is present every time the unit is cleaning my hose for 7 minutes every morning. Thought that is okay? Please tell me more??

Never was contacted about it. It always had a strong smell and alot of noise. My nose Still runs day and night, summer and winter. Been to the doctor two times with no let up. Now I see why by all these reports. My SoClean just now stopped working saying no hose detected. What do we do ?

Paid a lot of money for my SoClean. Had to quit using it when Phillips recalled my DreamStation. Kept waking up congested and tired. Never thought it could have been the cleaning machine. Now that I clean it with soap and water, congestion is gone and I have more energy as I can breathe better. The SoClean just sits there now as I'm afraid to use it. Such a waste of money!!

Needless to say, I need to keep searching. I have had a ResMed C-Pap Machine for about 6 years and a So Clean Machine for about 4 years. I must admit, I had no idea there was a lawsuit pending against So Clean. I would also like to be added to this lawsuit. Last year, I developed a chronic cough that started in April and finally went away the end of November. I thought it was just seasonal allergies, but it wasn't. I was taking "Pearls", Tessalon, for months to keep it under control. My Pulmonologist sent me for a CT Scan and it came back showing little black flecks all over in my lungs. She couldn't figure it out. I have never smoked and I try to stay away from people who do. We did have a lot of fires around our area the year before, so she thought maybe that was it. This is why I am desperately trying to find that article. My friend sent it to me months ago and it is somewhere in my thousands of emails. She tried to find it at her end, but hasn't so far. If any of you find it, please send it to my email above. Thank you, I will be seeing my Doctor here again in the next month or so after I have another CT Scan. Some of you mentioned getting another cleaning machine for your C-Pap. Could you please list some suggestions? Thank you. I am sorry so many of you have suffered these terrible side effects and will keep you in my thoughts. Now that I know this sight is here, I will check back to see updates and hopefully good news as well. Take care.

I purchased a SoClean2 on 10/6/18 and started using it. I stopped using it today 11/8/22. Based on what I've read here. I have all but lost my voice. I have chronic rhinitis, and my ears have a recurring dark scaly mass that refuses to heal. My current ENT Doctor is treating it with Mometisone since Feb/2022, but it continues to return.

Its plausible to me, my symptoms could have more systemic causes. The threat of cancer scares me. I hope I have not waited too late.

BillNovember 5, 2022 at 4:38 pm
Been using a soclean machine for a couple of years. Had no idea of this lawsuit. May explain my shortness of breath, thought maybe it was lingering from Covid but now maybe it’s because of the soclean. Please keep us posted on any updates. Has there been any recalls or hearings?
StevenNovember 4, 2022 at 1:56 pm
I have used my So Clean for 6:or 6 years. I have experience d shortness of breath for awhile now. Could this be part of the cause. I would like answers and to be included in the class action lawsuit

YvonneNovember 2, 2022 at 3:47 pm
I bought a So Clean 2 machine in mid fall of 2021. Had been using it and ran across varied articles regarding its safety and possible side effects of this machine. I cannot believe that the Coap Store still even Carrie’s this hazard!!
JeffNovember 2, 2022 at 10:37 am
I purchased the SoClean cleaner in early 2016 for my Resmed 10 based upon the company's marketing about its effectiveness and that it used "activated oxygen". I had no idea that the "activated oxygen" was actually harmful ozone. I have now quit using my SoClean. In 2018 I was diagnosed with leukemia (CLL), although I have no idea if there is any connection with using SoClean.

I've been using the so-clean for at least 2 or 3 years. Can't say I'm having issues but I don't want to come down with lung cancer. I've stopped using the machine when I heard it could be dangerous.

I have the same issues as Lillian. I never had a cough and post nasal drip before using Soclean with my Resmed system.

I'm outraged to find this out. I've been using soclean machine faithfully. Well my facial mask broke so I had to order a new one today. As I was completing my order the customer service representative said not to use it due to it being defective. I quite upset about this and would like to know if I can be part of the lawsuit. Thank you.

I used So clean 2 faith my Philips dream station . When the machine was cleaning it produced a horrible smell that lingers in my bedroom. I called so clean several times. They asure me that the machine could not harmed me. I even send the machine back to them. The machine was dirty when they sent it back to me. No explanations. It affected my sense of smell. I lost my sense of smell.

I use my CPAP every night without fail and use the SoClean very often and I’ve been questioning why my health is continuously getting worse. I have developed a chronic, mostly dry cough for several years now and chronic sinusitis. My daughter keeps asking me why I’m not seeing my doctor about my wheezing. I wake up every morning with a bad headache, which, thank heaven, doesn’t last super long. Along with some other medical issues, I’ve basically stopped going out day or night and I’ve almost forgotten what it feels like to be a normal human being!

I use my CPAP every night without fail and use the SoClean very often and I’ve been questioning why my health is continuously getting worse. I have developed a chronic, mostly dry cough for several years now and chronic sinusitis. My daughter keeps asking me why I’m not seeing my doctor about my wheezing. I wake up every morning with a bad headache, which, thank heaven, doesn’t last super long. Along with some other medical issues, I’ve basically stopped going out day or night and I’ve almost forgotten what it feels like to be a normal human being! I would like to believe that there is an answer to my situation.
