Is it portable?

Yes, in fact it is designed small enough, to fit into the smallest of C-PAP carry bags...no part is over 11 inches in length…and it comes with its own drawstring carry bag, which has the colorful, “*HoseBeGone…the All-Star in Your Bedroom*” …logo on it!

Will it work with my mattress, it is an odd size?

The HoseBeGone has several height choices available to work with most mattress thicknesses

How high do you mount the HoseBeGone over the mattress?

We recommend about 15 inches from the top of the mattress to the top of the circular support arm…the lower portion of the circular support should be inch or so above and behind your head so the CPAP hose can glide effortlessly back and forth and follow your movements as you sleep…It is important to remember however that for maximum effectiveness, you should try to create a space between the mattress and headboard or wall so the CPAP hose has some space to retract.

How does it work?

HoseBeGone’s patented, Doctor recommended, Doctor and Patient developed, hose management system allows your hose to work with you, not against you, it’s circular support arm swivels to follow you…following your movement in bed extending and retracting…as opposed to tying you up every time you move around…think about it, what would you pay, to have someone just stand there to reposition your hose for you at night? Would you pay someone 24 cents a night? If you can afford that, you can have yourself a personal valet called …”HoseBeGone”…the All-Star in Your Bedroom!

Is it expensive?

It depends on how much value you put on good night’s sleep! If you divide $89.95 by 365 days…it breaks down to about 24 cents a day!!!…and that’s if you only use it 1 year! So, each year you use that critical support…that allows you to sleep just a little bit better every night…it goes from 24 cents a day to just over a penny a day…in 5 years! This device pays for itself the very first night you use it…and you no longer have to be your own CPAP hose manager…

If that’s not a good enough reason for you, we’ll guarantee it’s worth every penny! In fact, use the HoseBeGone, if it is not the best 24 cents a day you have ever spent to manage your C-PAP hose, return it within 30 days for a full refund of your money*

*does not include shipping and handling charges!

Does the HoseBeGone work only with conventional beds?

No, the best way to use the HoseBeGone is to position the base between a mattress and box spring, but we have an optional permanent wall mount for the circular support arm that can be mounted on a wall or on the back of your headboard.

Can I use a longer hose or use two CPAP hoses that are fastened together? Will the HoseBeGone still work?

Yes, it should work fine. We do offer optional counterweights you can install on your C-PAP hose if you would like it to retract easier or if you feel it needs a little help to retract easier…you be the judge!

back to top


Is the HoseBeGone difficult to assemble or do I need any tools?

No, the HoseBeGone needs no tools, it assembles and slides easily between the mattress and box spring. So, if you can put a peg into a hole, you can assemble the HoseBeGone. The optional wall mount does require a screwdriver.

Sleep & Sleep Apnea

Why do we sleep?

I wonder if anyone really knows! But you will agree that we can not do without it. Some believe that sleep is the time set aside by nature or God, whichever you believe in, for the brain and body growth. It may be true that a growth hormone secretion is linked to sleep. Others thought that sleep is a simple, protective, behavioral adaptation during the periods of darkness, to avoid exposure to the predators. Sleep may have something to do with the strength of Immune function in the body, some would claim. Sleep may be the time for energy conservation…and few think of sleep as memory consolidation time.
Whatever the function, we need it nightly and we need plenty of it!

How much sleep do we need??

Amongst the chaos of disagreement, we need good quality, uninterrupted sleep of about six hours nightly to maintain adequate daytime functioning. Some may need a little more or a little less, but it is the quality that matters!

How many of us snore???

Disagreement prevails here too. About one in three men and one in five women, snore.

So then how many of us have sleep apnea???

The prevalence is 4% men and 2% in women.

If you are diagnosed with sleep apnea then we are on the same page. If you are prescribed a CPAP machine, we understand your difficulties trying to sleep. If you are not tolerating CPAP, we can help. We can help you sleep with CPAP, so you can enjoy the refreshing restorative sleep every one of us deserves, every night!!!

So what if I don’t use my CPAP?

So, what’s the big deal? What if I don’t use my CPAP?

Well, if you don’t use your CPAP at all, you not only miss all the advantages of good, restorative sleep but expose yourself to many health problems…and those of you who use it “most of the night”…you are at risk too, don’t fool yourself by thinking because you used CPAP for a couple of hours you are out of the woods! Not on our watch you won’t!

Simply put, sleep apnea is like someone choking you, while you try to sleep!

No air flow when the body needs it most. Your body reacts with a major stress response by releasing chemicals… which raises your blood pressure…and…can increase your heart rate to a point that is very dangerous! When the heart can’t pump blood efficiently, your heart gets congested.

You are left with no energy!!!

Your blood sugar goes wacko!

Your risk of stroke has just been multiplied many times…

Oh, did we mention Asthma?

Did we mention how it can make asthma symptoms worse!

How about acid reflux…could you please pass the Tum’s?

If you have acid reflux and have untreated sleep apnea, there is a good chance your acid reflux could caused by your untreated sleep apnea and can make it worse than it already is!

How is your memory? We know, you can’t remember can you?

Sleep apnea can cause your memory to fail you, when you need it most…honey, have you seen my car keys?

Too tired to notice a personality change?

Sleep apnea can cause you to become irritable and have personality changes? Most people who notice this are the last ones to let you know! Do friends and family avoid your company? Make your own evaluation. It may be time to re-think your treatment options.

Who me?

Yes you, it may be time to evaluate your options!

What does impotence have to do with sleep apnea?

Lets just say, there are many happy people waking up feeling like they are a teenager again! It is amazing what a good nights sleep will do for you!

Are you just tired? Tired of medical treatments not working?

The worst news is…medical treatments fail to work if sleep apnea is not properly treated...and the dangers of untreated sleep apnea are always underestimated!

CPAP Equipment has changed!

Ok, so maybe CPAP didn’t work for you…should you say, I already tried it and it didn’t work for me?

NO, NO, NO!!! We don’t think so, we think if you have the right equipment and the right advice, you will have the best chance at success. Go to an AWAKE meeting in your area, these are groups of people just like yourself who use CPAP and can help you transition to full compliance…seek out a provider that is more concerned with getting you proper equipment and becoming a compliant CPAP user than their bottom line!

It’s uncomfortable, inconvenient!!!

How comfortable or inconvenient is a STROKE! We can tell you it is not convenient nor is it comfortable having someone change your diapers…I am sorry, what was your reason for not using CPAP?

No more excuses!
