I want to buy a second hand portable oxygen concentrator for my husband, but I don't know where to start. Can anyone suggest somewhere reliable I might get one? We live in Manchester. Thank you.

Hi

Is your husband on prescription oxygen, check with your oxygen provider.

Air Liquide do two portable concentrators, Imogen G1 and Philips I-Go.

They also do liquid oxygen which is lighter than cylinders.

The following do second hand/ ex demo units based in Urmston

He is on liquid oxygen, he is currently on D2, but we want to get a portable, so we can get out and about whenever we want, but to buy one from new is really expensive. Thank you for the link for the company in Urmston, I will look into it.

Surely a phone call to your Pulmonary nurse will get your prescription changed to add a Freedom 400 cylinder. A back pack is provided and can be worn or fitted on a wheelchair as required. Regards Rib
