Okay guys so here's the only fact that matters here! Information straight form the recall page on the Canadian Health Govt Website - Issue number 2 is the worse!
"Philips has become aware of two (2) issues that may pose a risk for patients or users of Philips Respironics branded Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), Bi-Level Positive Airway Pressure (BIPAP), and Mechanical Ventilators:

1. Philips has determined from user reports and testing that the Polyester-Based Polyurethane (PE-PUR) sound abatement foam used in Philips continuous and non-continuous ventilators may degrade under certain circumstances, and the degraded particles could potentially enter the air pathway of the device. This issue affects Philips Respironics branded CPAP’s, Bi-Levels, and Mechanical Ventilators.

2. The results of testing performed by Philips indicate that the PE-PUR sound abatement foam used in these devices may emit certain chemicals. Our investigation to date indicates that this emission occurs during initial operation and may possibly continue throughout the device's useful life.
These issues impact all device product platforms manufactured with Polyester Polyurethane (PE-PUR) sound abatement foam"


So let me break this down so it's easier to understand. Basically Philips have gone and grabbed a brand new DS1 off the shelf, turned it on and tested the air coming out of it. They have determined from this that machine is 'emitting certain chemicals' and that this happens from day 1 and may continue for the life of the machine! Now from the U.S recall page they have stated these are 'carcinogenic' chemicals.

So from day one, your machine is pumping you full of carcinogenic chemicals and this could continue night after night for the life of the machine. This is the reason for the recall! They are using the ozone / foam break down as a smoke screen to hide the real reason which that it doesn't matter how you clean your device or what the weather is...From day 1...It's bad for you! Stay tuned and good luck

I know this is a very difficult time for many of you and i'm just so angry at Philips for taking so long to announce the recall! They obviously were waiting for the development and release of their new DS2 machine.

It took them 2 months even after their first 'warning'. That's not great considering they're warning about potentially carcinogenic foam! Seriously?!

I would not be surprised if there's a class action lawsuit regarding this recall!

This is a very very dark day in the world of CPAP and i just can't believe it.

Best of luck guys, i'm thinking of you all.
