ResMed CPAP and BiPAP Machines in Delhi: Models, Prices and Rental Options (2026)

Somebody in your family has just been told they need a machine. The prescription says ResMed, or the doctor said "get a ResMed" and nothing more. You search for it and within ten minutes you are looking at AirSense 11, AirSense 10, AirMini, Lumis 100, Lumis 150, AirCurve 10 ST, AirCurve 10 VAuto — eight names, prices ranging from ₹30,000 to over ₹2,00,000, and no clear way to tell which one applies to you.

Worse, half of them will not help your patient at all. A ResMed AirSense 11 is an excellent machine that is completely useless for a COPD patient retaining CO₂. A Lumis 150 ST-A is a superb device that is wild overkill for straightforward sleep apnoea.

This guide sorts it out. Which ResMed model does what, what each realistically costs in Delhi, when renting beats buying, how to check a unit is genuine before money changes hands, and where in Delhi you can get one delivered and installed the same day.

The short answer

ResMed makes two families of machines. AirSense and AirMini are CPAP — one steady pressure, for obstructive sleep apnoea. Lumis and AirCurve are BiPAP, also called bilevel or VPAP — two pressures, for COPD, obesity hypoventilation, neuromuscular disease and sleep apnoea that CPAP cannot manage. Your prescription decides the family; your condition and settings decide the model within it.

If your prescription says	You need	Common ResMed model
CPAP, single pressure	CPAP	AirSense 11 AutoSet, AirSense 10
APAP or auto-adjusting	Auto CPAP	AirSense 11 AutoSet
BiPAP S, IPAP and EPAP only	Bilevel, spontaneous	Lumis 100, AirCurve 10 S
BiPAP ST with a backup rate	Bilevel with backup	Lumis 100 VPAP ST, AirCurve 10 ST
iVAPS, AVAPS or target volume	Volume-assured bilevel	Lumis 150 ST-A
ASV or central apnoea	Adaptive servo-ventilation	AirCurve 10 ASV

If you do not yet understand the IPAP, EPAP and backup rate numbers on your slip, read our companion guide on what the numbers on a BiPAP prescription mean first. It will make the rest of this article obvious.

Why ResMed, specifically?

Fair question, because ResMed is not the cheapest option in Delhi. BMC, Oxymed, Resplus, and Topson all make working machines at lower prices, and for some patients they are entirely appropriate.

What you are paying extra for with ResMed:

• Quieter motors. ResMed's Easy-Breathe motor runs around 25 dB. In a Delhi flat where the patient shares a room, or a joint family where the bedroom wall is thin, this is not a luxury feature — it is the difference between a machine that gets used and one that ends up in a cupboard.

• Serious leak management. Continuous leak compensation matters more in India than the brochures suggest, because summer sweat and facial hair both break mask seals.

• Data you can actually use. myAir and AirView give your doctor real adherence and event data instead of guesswork at the follow-up.

• Service depth. More Delhi technicians are trained on ResMed than on any other brand, so a fault on a Sunday night is more likely to be fixable.

Where ResMed is not worth it: a short two-to-four week post-discharge requirement, where a well-maintained BMC or Oxymed rental does the same clinical job for less money. Any honest supplier will tell you that.

ResMed CPAP machines available in Delhi

AirSense 11 AutoSet — the current flagship

The machine most new sleep apnoea patients in Delhi end up on. It auto-adjusts pressure through the night rather than holding one fixed number, has a built-in HumidAir 11 humidifier, a touchscreen, and cellular connectivity for myAir.

Specification	Detail
Type	Auto-adjusting CPAP (APAP)
Modes	AutoSet, AutoSet for Her, CPAP
Humidifier	Built-in HumidAir 11
Connectivity	Cellular, myAir app
Best for	Newly diagnosed OSA, patients who want minimal fiddling

The AutoSet for Her mode is worth knowing about — it uses a different algorithm tuned to the way apnoea tends to present in women, with more flow-limitation sensitivity. If the patient is a woman with mild to moderate OSA, mention it.

Current pricing and configurations are on our AirSense 11 Delhi page and the AirSense 11 purchase page. Rental typically starts around ₹4,500 a month with same-day setup.

One thing to check before you buy: the Single Pack contains the machine only. The TriPack adds the humidifier chamber and heated ClimateLineAir tubing. In Delhi's winter, buying the Single Pack to save money and then discovering you need humidification in December is a false economy — you will buy the parts separately at a worse price.

AirSense 10 AutoSet and Elite — the value option

The previous generation, still widely sold in Delhi and still clinically excellent. The Elite is a fixed-pressure CPAP; the AutoSet is auto-adjusting. No cellular connectivity, no touchscreen, data by SD card on most units.

If budget is tight and the patient does not care about app-based tracking, the AirSense 10 delivers essentially the same therapy for meaningfully less. Its EPR feature — which drops pressure slightly on exhale for comfort — trips up a lot of new users; our guide on whether to turn AirSense 10 EPR on or off covers it.

AirMini — travel only

Pocket-sized, genuinely impressive engineering, and the wrong purchase as a primary machine. No standard humidifier chamber, proprietary mask fittings, and running it every night in Delhi's dry winter air will make the patient miserable. Buy it as a second machine for travel if the patient flies often. Do not buy it as their only machine.

ResMed BiPAP machines available in Delhi

Lumis 100 VPAP ST — the workhorse

This is the machine that goes home with most COPD and post-ICU patients in Delhi, and for good reason. It covers the modes that the vast majority of discharge prescriptions specify.

Specification	Detail
Modes	CPAP, S, ST, T, PAC
Pressure range	2–25 cmH₂O
Sound level	About 25 dB
Weight	1.2 kg
Humidifier	Integrated, auto-adjusting
Notable feature	iBR — delivers backup breaths only when needed

That iBR behaviour matters in practice. A cruder backup rate fires on a fixed schedule and fights a patient who is breathing adequately on their own; iBR steps in only when the patient's own effort falls short, which most people tolerate far better.

Full details on our Lumis 100 VPAP ST page, rental terms on the Lumis 100 rental page, and a fuller walkthrough in our Lumis 100 ST home care guide.

Lumis 150 VPAP ST and ST-A — when the prescription is more complex

The 150 adds a wider feature set and finer control. The ST-A variant is the important one: it runs iVAPS, ResMed's volume-assured mode, which adjusts pressure support breath by breath to hit a target ventilation rather than holding a fixed IPAP.

If your prescription mentions iVAPS, AVAPS, target tidal volume, or gives an IPAP range rather than a single number, you need an ST-A class machine. A Lumis 100 physically cannot run that prescription, and no amount of settings adjustment will change it. This is the single most common mismatch we see when a family has already bought a machine elsewhere.

AirCurve 10 ST, S and VAuto

The AirCurve 10 family overlaps heavily with Lumis. Broadly: AirCurve 10 S for spontaneous bilevel, AirCurve 10 ST where a backup rate is needed, AirCurve 10 VAuto for auto-adjusting bilevel in sleep apnoea patients who need two pressures but not a fixed prescription.

AirCurve 10 ASV — a special case

Adaptive servo-ventilation, for central and complex sleep apnoea. Important safety note: ASV is contraindicated in patients with certain forms of symptomatic heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. It is prescribed after specific testing, never chosen off a website. If your prescription says ASV, that decision has already been made by a specialist.

Which ResMed machine for which condition

Condition	Usual ResMed choice	Why
Newly diagnosed OSA	AirSense 11 AutoSet	Auto-adjusts, minimal setup burden
OSA, budget-conscious	AirSense 10 Elite or AutoSet	Same therapy, fewer conveniences
OSA that CPAP cannot control	AirCurve 10 VAuto	Two pressures, still auto-adjusting
COPD with CO₂ retention	Lumis 100 VPAP ST	ST mode with backup rate, low EPAP capability
Obesity hypoventilation	Lumis 100 or 150 ST	Needs high IPAP and a solid backup rate
Neuromuscular disease, ALS	Lumis 150 ST-A	iVAPS maintains ventilation as muscles weaken
Central sleep apnoea	AirCurve 10 ASV	Specialist prescription only
Frequent traveller, secondary unit	AirMini	Travel only, never the primary machine

A security cheque is taken at the time of rental and returned when the equipment is collected. Transport charges for delivery and pickup are billed at actuals. Full terms are on the rental terms and conditions page.

Should you rent or buy a ResMed machine?

Run the arithmetic rather than the instinct.

Your situation	Recommendation	Reasoning
Just discharged, settings brand new	Rent	Settings frequently change at the four-week review. Buying now risks buying the wrong machine
Short-term need — post-surgery, chest infection recovery	Rent	You may not need it in eight weeks
Confirmed OSA, settings stable, lifelong therapy	Buy	Rental crosses purchase cost somewhere around 12–15 months
Progressive illness where needs will escalate	Rent first	You may move from S to ST to iVAPS. Rental lets the machine follow the patient
Trialling whether the patient will tolerate therapy at all	Rent	Roughly a third of new users struggle in the first month

The break-even sits around the twelve-month mark for most models. Before that, rental is usually the better financial decision as well as the safer clinical one. Our guide on renting before buying works through the numbers in more detail.

Not sure which ResMed model your prescription actually needs? WhatsApp a photo of the prescription or discharge summary to +91 98759 15278. We will tell you which ResMed models can run those settings, which cannot, and what it costs to rent or buy each — before you spend anything. No charge, and no obligation.

How to check a ResMed machine is genuine before you pay

Delhi has a real grey market in PAP devices. Refurbished units sold as new, imported machines without Indian warranty, and units with inflated hour meters all circulate, particularly through online marketplaces and smaller shops around the medical equipment markets.

Run these seven checks. They take five minutes and can save you a lakh.

1. Serial number. Every genuine ResMed device has a serial number on the base. Ask the seller to read it out before you visit, then verify it with ResMed India or an authorised distributor.

2. Hour meter. In the clinical menu, check total run hours. A "brand new" machine should show near zero. Anything above a few hours has been used.

3. Indian warranty documentation. An imported unit may be entirely genuine and still carry no warranty valid in India. Ask specifically for the Indian warranty card, not the international one.

4. GST invoice with the serial number printed on it. Not a hand-written bill, not a WhatsApp confirmation. You will also need this invoice if you intend to claim the cost on health insurance.

5. Sealed accessories. Humidifier chamber, tubing and filter should be sealed. Loose accessories on a "new" machine is a warning sign.

6. Power adapter. Genuine ResMed adapters are ResMed-branded and rated correctly. A generic adapter usually means the original was lost — because the machine is not new.

7. Ask them to run it in front of you. Any legitimate seller will. Listen to the motor; a genuine ResMed at therapy pressure is notably quiet.

Renting from an established supplier sidesteps most of this, which is a reason to rent that has nothing to do with money.

Masks matter more than the machine

An uncomfortable truth: patients abandon therapy over masks far more often than over machines. A perfect Lumis 100 with a badly fitted mask delivers worse therapy than a basic machine with a well-fitted one, because leak destroys pressure delivery.

Mask type	Suits	Watch out for
Nasal (AirFit N20, N30i)	Nose breathers, most CPAP users	Mouth leak if the jaw drops open
Full face (AirFit F20, F30i)	Mouth breathers, high pressures, most BiPAP	Bulk, and pressure marks on the bridge of the nose
Nasal pillows (AirFit P10)	Low pressures, side sleepers, claustrophobia	Poor tolerance at high IPAP

Facial hair is the most common cause of persistent leak in male patients in Delhi, and it is rarely mentioned in the shop. If the patient has a beard, plan for a full-face mask with a soft cushion, or expect a fight with leak alarms.

See our guides on choosing the right mask type and fixing mask leaks, or browse masks at cpap.healthyjeenasikho.com/mask.

This is our fastest-response belt, and where we most often complete genuine same-night ResMed setups.

Beyond Delhi

We also deliver ResMed machines across Noida, Greater Noida, Gurgaon, Ghaziabad and Faridabad. Rental pricing differs slightly by city — the Gurgaon and Faridabad rates are on their own pages.

What happens on delivery day

1. The technician brings the machine, humidifier chamber, tubing, filter, power adapter and your chosen mask.

2. Settings from your prescription are entered and shown to you on screen — mode, pressures, backup rate.

3. The clinician menu is locked so settings cannot be changed by accident.

4. Mask fitting is done sitting up and awake, not at bedtime.

5. You are shown how to fill the humidifier with distilled water, change the filter and clean the tubing.

6. Contact details are left for night-time support.

Ask for the settings screen to be photographed on your phone before the technician leaves. If a question comes up at 2 AM, that photo answers it faster than anyone on a phone line.

Frequently asked questions

Q1. Which ResMed machine is best for sleep apnoea in Delhi? 

For most newly diagnosed obstructive sleep apnoea patients, the AirSense 11 AutoSet is the standard choice because it auto-adjusts pressure through the night and needs minimal user input. The AirSense 10 delivers comparable therapy at a lower price with fewer connectivity features.

Q2. What is the price of a ResMed BiPAP machine in Delhi?

Indicatively, the Lumis 100 VPAP ST runs roughly ₹50,000 to ₹75,000, the Lumis 150 VPAP ST from about ₹68,000, and the Lumis 150 ST-A with iVAPS from about ₹1,10,000. Prices vary with configuration and current import costs, so confirm before purchase.

Q3. Can I rent a ResMed machine in Delhi instead of buying? 

Yes. Indicative monthly rentals run from about ₹4,500 for the AirSense 11, ₹5,000 for the Lumis 100 VPAP ST, ₹6,000 for the AirCurve 10 ST and ₹7,500 for the Lumis 150. A refundable security cheque is taken at the start, and transport is charged at actuals.

Q4. What is the difference between ResMed Lumis 100 and Lumis 150? 

Both are bilevel devices, but the Lumis 150 offers a broader feature set and finer control. The critical difference is the ST-A variant of the 150, which runs iVAPS volume-assured ventilation. If your prescription specifies iVAPS or a target tidal volume, a Lumis 100 cannot deliver it.

Q5. Is ResMed better than BMC, Philips or Oxymed? 

ResMed generally offers quieter operation, stronger leak compensation and better data reporting, and has the widest service network in Delhi. For short-term rentals of a few weeks, a well-maintained BMC or Oxymed unit often provides the same clinical benefit at lower cost.

Q6. How do I know a ResMed machine is genuine? 

Verify the serial number with ResMed India or an authorised distributor, check the hour meter reads near zero on a new unit, insist on a GST invoice with the serial number printed on it, confirm the warranty is valid in India, and check that accessories arrive sealed.

Q7. Does ResMed AirSense 11 come with a humidifier? 

The TriPack configuration includes the HumidAir 11 humidifier and heated tubing. The Single Pack contains the machine only. In Delhi's dry winters, humidification is strongly advised, so the TriPack is usually the better purchase.

Q8. Which ResMed machine do COPD patients need? 

Most COPD patients with carbon dioxide retention are prescribed a bilevel machine in ST mode with a backup rate, which the Lumis 100 VPAP ST covers. CPAP machines such as the AirSense are not suitable for CO₂ retention because they provide no pressure support.

Q9. Can I get a ResMed machine delivered the same day in Delhi? 

Yes, in most parts of Delhi. We hold ResMed stock at Bhogal, Tri Nagar and Uttam Nagar, covering South Delhi, West Delhi including Dwarka and Janakpuri, and North-West Delhi including Pitampura and Ashok Vihar. Call +91 98769 78488 with the prescription to confirm.

Q10. Do I need a prescription to buy a ResMed machine? 

Yes. CPAP and BiPAP devices are prescription medical equipment. The prescription determines the mode and pressures, and any supplier configuring a machine without one is not acting responsibly.

Q11. What is the warranty on a ResMed machine in India? 

Warranty terms vary by model and configuration and apply only to units purchased through authorised channels in India. Imported or grey-market units are frequently excluded, which is why the Indian warranty card matters more than the international one.

Q12. Can a ResMed machine be used with oxygen? 

Yes, oxygen can be bled into the circuit when prescribed, using the appropriate connector. The flow rate is set by your doctor.

Q13. How often do ResMed filters and masks need replacing?

As a general guide, filters roughly every six months, tubing annually, and mask cushions every few months depending on use — sooner in Delhi's dust and summer heat. Our replacement schedule guide has the detail.

Getting it right, in one paragraph

Match the machine to the prescription, not to the brochure or the budget. Rent while the settings are still moving, buy once they have settled. Verify the serial number and insist on a GST invoice. Spend real time on the mask. And if any of it is unclear, ask before you pay rather than after.

Call +91 98769 78488 or WhatsApp +91 98759 15278 with the prescription in hand. Browse the full range on our ResMed BiPAP page, the BiPAP machine hub or the equipment shop.
