Machine Service

Post by Bill44133 » Mon Sep 01, 2014 10:37 am

I have 2 bi-level cpap machines a System One 760P that is my original machine. It now has 3,862.5 hours on it.
My new to me backup bi-level cpap machine is a System One 750P with only 580.3 hours on it.

The common sense in me figures that it is most likely time or past time to take the original machine out for cleaning and service.
I figured starting tonight and for the month of September I will use the backup machine. So it is a good time to send the original machine out for service.

I live in the Cleveland/Akron Ohio area does any one know a local service shop? I would also consider sending it away for service if any one has had good luck with a
repair/service shop.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Names and numbers would be great.

I wish every one well

Accurate Biomed Services.

Sent my 750 there a while back for CLA and firmware install.
They did a great job.

Honestly, I am not aware of any Periodic or Preventive Maintenance interval or requirement. Tho I am sure someone will be willing to take your money.

I would simply start using the machine with fewer hours as the primary. Before you know it there will be a new model - then you can use your "Service Money" towards the new model.

I am with LSAT.

Someone tinkering with your machine "could" just create problems that do not yet exist.

Now, if you desire a firmware update, that is another question.
