If you don't know much about a portable oxygen machine, don't worry I'll try to help. Here is some simple information about oxygen concentrators that can help, especially if having an oxygen tank is something that is new to you.

So how does it work? To put it simply, the HomeFill system will allow you to use your home oxygen concentrator for oxygen supply while at home and fill your portable oxygen tanks at the same time. This gives you the ability to easily fill your tanks by yourself and not have to worry about running out of oxygen or wait for service calls. The HomeFill gives you greater independence and freedom.

The Invacare HomeFill II is one of the best and newest systems available. A great aspect about the HomeFill system is that it is covered by Medicare and most other insurances. If you have more questions about an oxygen system or if you want to know if your insurance will cover the costs of one, just contact an Orbit Medical oxygen specialist or fill out this form and they will be happy to assist you. Additional frequently asked questions are also on this page.

If is sounds difficult, don't worry. The HomeFill II system is really easy to use and only takes around 75 minutes to fill the tanks. The tanks weigh less than 5 pounds and last up to 5 hours. Once you have the HomeFill set-up in your home, Orbit Medical provides you with a 24 hour service line to help you get the most out of your oxygen therapy.
