Possible causes of lower pressure in a ResMed AirCurve 10 ASV after four years of use include:

1. Blower motor degradation, which may lead to incorrect pressure or flow.
2. A clogged air filter reducing airflow.
3. Blocked or obstructed mask CO₂ vents.
4. Improperly seated water chamber or loose chamber lid.

Testing during calibration can confirm blower performance.
