The easiest would be to adjust your headgear and mask. Take time, spend a day or two adjusting it, you really have to take time for adjustment. I had the same problem, then my wife got sick of me … and she dragged me to the it and I “had to” to take time : ) she is some character : )
Be careful not to adjust the straps more tightly, because that doesn’t help. Air leakage problems are usually due to positioning, not pressure (this problem origins from problem above!). another solution could be usage of nasal pillows.
If you find the incoming air to be too dry, and your sinuses are drying out, many manufacturers offer a humidifier as an option.
If you find the machine noisy, push it away little bit, but watch it, machine has to have plenty space (be careful not to start fire!)
