About Altra Service Professionals

The Mission of Altra Service Professionals is to provide exceptional service on a consistent basis to ensure total customer satisfaction. This will be achieved by partnering with individuals and companies with similar goals and values.

ASP works with all sizes of health care providers from smaller one site companies to large national organizations. We also perform repairs for people that own their equipment. Our close relationship with UPS allows us to service any state quickly and cost effectively. ASP is your go to repair company with the experience and integrity other companies trust to work with. Our strong background in the HME industry gives us an edge over our competition. We understand the challenges home care companies face each day, from competitive bidding to on-call equipment failures to denied claims. Every dollar counts and we are here to help lower your equipment maintenance costs.

ASP is an Authorized Service Center for Philips Respironics and ResMed. We are able to complete warranty repairs, as well as, out of warranty repairs. We specialize in Home Respiratory Medical Equipment repairs for portable oxygen concentrators and CPAP machines.

The goal at ASP is simple: Your complete satisfaction. We’re a different kind of repair company; one that puts the customers best interests first. We believe that our long term success is dependent on earning and retaining the trust of our customers. We are not trying to maximize a “sale” associated with your equipment repair. We are managing our relationship by recommending appropriate outcomes, even if that means telling the customer the machine is not worth repairing and to decline the repair. We are experts in medical equipment repairs and our customers look to us for guidance in addition to performing the standard repair. We may have lost that sale, but we retained the trust of our customer, thereby being one step closer to achieving our goal of having a long term client through customer satisfaction.

Thank you for visiting our website. We hope you afford us the opportunity and privilege to work with you in the future. To our current customers, a special thank you for your past support and we look forward to growing our business relationship together.

Warm Regards,
Bob

Quality repair!! They diagnosed the issue fixed it and I received my CPAP back in great working condition. There was a software issue with the manufacturer of the device, Phillips, which delayed them repairing the machine. This was not an issue with Altra Service Professionals (ASP). ASP had great communication throughout the issue and kept me informed of the progress from the manufacturer I would highly recommend this company. Thank you!!
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing. Much appreciated!

I have had two CPAP machines refurbished by ultra ALTRA. They are very open, friendly, and competent. I recommend them!
Response from the owner:Thank you!

These folks are nothing short of amazing. They've kept our vintage ResMed S9 blowin' and goin' for years, at a reasonable cost and with a service speed that is downright astonishing. Reliable CPAP therapy is crucial to patients--it's lifesaving treatment, no two ways about it. Having a service partner who can get the job done correctly, quickly, and affordably eliminates a major worry for CPAP patients, who already have plenty to worry about. We intend to be using Altra for service for many years to come.
Response from the owner:Thank you for sharing!

This is the second time I have used their service. AirSense 10 which still works great and AirSense 11 this time. Very quick and reasonable on repair costs. It couldn't be better or faster!
Response from the owner:Thank you!

Excellent service! Shipped them my CPAP machine using their pre-paid mailing label, and they quickly diagnosed the problem. The unit had to be sent to the manufacturer, Resmed. I was mailed what seems to be a brand-new machine. Altra saved me hundreds compared to buying myself a new one.
Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing.

Could not have been any faster or easier. My repair works like new. Refreshing to see people who care for their customers
Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing!

Outstanding service. I brought my CPAP to Altra Service in the morning. In a couple of hours (~2), it was analyzed, parts replaced and returned fixed to me. I was ecstatic about the speed and quality of the repair. Thank you!
Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing!

Can't say enough good things about Altra. Rare to find such a great response. Seamless from start to finish. Bob is a true professional. Its really comforting to know there is a company you can depend on for any repairs and knowledge sharing.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much!

Absolutely the best, hands down. I bring my concentrator from Colorado for service. Bob and company are honest as the day is long and care about their customers. You WILL NOT be disappointed with them.
Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing!
Shawn J.
What a great service…… I have (2) ResMed BiPAP machines. Both machines were making a disturbing whining sounds when I would breathe in. This annoyed my wife to no end….. I live in Apopka, Florida….. I drove up one day and they fixed my machine in about 45 minutes the first day…… what amazing service. I ended up driving back up to have my second machine repaired!! It was well worth the small amount paid for service compared to the crazy prices for these machines!! Great job!!
Response from the owner:Thank you!

I was hesitant that my machine could be repaired, but this service was extremely efficient, fast and transparent. I had several phone calls with them and they did not try and upsell me. In the end, we decided together what made the most sense in terms of repair vs cost. I really cannot recommend them highly enough. My machine was repaired, thoroughly tested then packed perfectly for a safe return. These guys are legit. And it’s certainly less expensive than a new machine. Thank you for this service.
Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing!

This place is a life saver. After my machine quit working I got in contact with Altra Service and drove my cpap to them that morning at 2pm the same day they messaged me it was ready to pick up.

Thank you, they repaired my old ResMed 10 that I use in my fifth wheel as a back up. Did amazing job, had bad whistle to it. Damaged due to me using SoClean on it for past 5 years. It was repaired very fast, came back with all the original settings in it, well packaged. Definitely recommend u using them for CPAP repair needs.
Response from the owner:Thank you!

My CPAP is very old but it is nice to know there is a place that keeps my machine going. With no insurance I wouldn’t have a place like Altra. Thanks for keeping my health a priority.
Response from the owner:Thank you.

Altra Service did a FANTASTIC JOB on the repair of my CPAP machine. I was using a SoClean with my CPAP machine and it caused the seals and insulation to fail in the machine. I shipped my machine to Altra Service and had a quote back from them the same day of the machine's arrival at their shop! After authorizing the repair, same day they completed the repair within 24 hours and was back in my bedroom 1 week after sending it to them.

Dealing with them was easy and they were very professional through the whole process.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND them for servicing of your CPAP devices! GREAT JOB Altra Service!
Response from the owner:Thank you!

Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing!

Shipped my CPAP to them on Saturday morning. They received, repaired, and had my unit back in the mail on Monday! Turnaround time was less than a week, and my unit runs like a champ. Laurie was my point of contact there and was a pleasure to work with. If your CPAP dies, you want these guys on your team. A+++
Response from the owner:Thank you!
Bob L.
This is my third time to use them for service. Every time it’s been smooth and easy. The turnaround time was quick. I received my unit back within 8 days. Very professional and the documentation provided shows the quality control they use. If you need service, don’t think twice. They are upfront and honest. I appreciate that level of service.

I recently had my CPAP machine repaired, and I am very satisfied with the service provided. The repair was completed within a week, which was impressively quick. Throughout the process, the company kept me informed about the status of my machine, providing regular updates and making sure I knew what was happening at each stage. Their communication and efficiency made the experience smooth and reassuring. I recommend their repair service to anyone who needs prompt, reliable support for their CPAP equipment.
Response from the owner:Thank you for taking the time to write a review. It is appreciated!

Had a crack on the side panel of my Cpap. Called them to see is they could fix it. Options were to UPS or drive up. I drove up, they had the parts, they also figured out my motor was running loud. Gave me the option to fix everything and they did so in a very timely manner. I was in and out within an hour. Very professional and helpful.
Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing!

Altra Service Professionals saved the day for us again! Our Respironics Simply Go POC developed multiple issues just as we were preparing to leave on a cruise. Even though there was a spare parts shortage for this model, somehow they found everything needed to make it run like new and shipped it back in just one week.. Thank you Bob and crew!
Response from the owner:Glad to help!

Ultra has a system in place that makes it very easy to ship and return your items. The unit came back looking like new. Everything is working perfectly. They even changed unit hours back to zero. I recommend this company 100%.
Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing!

I was pleased with the responsiveness of the company. They answered my inquiries promptly and my repaired BiPAP humidifier was returned within a week. I also appreciated the note on the invoice that might avoid reoccurrence of the same problem.
Response from the owner:Thank you!

Bob and Team provided excellent communication, customer service and fixed my old CPAP (which had multiple issues) at a very reasonable price.
Once they received my machine, the Diagnostics and Repairs were done in 24 hours and shipped back.
This is old school customer service values. A breath of Spring as you don't find it much anymore.
I highly recommend!

I recently sent in my AirCurve 10 for service with Altra Service Professionals after it reached its end-of-life hour counter. The entire experience was smooth and efficient from start to finish.

Being able to print out a prepaid shipping label made getting the machine to them a breeze. They repaired and shipped it back the same day, which is almost unheard of these days. The team was courteous, professional, and clearly runs a smart, customer-first operation.

They’re one of only two authorized repair centers for ResMed equipment, and after this experience, I can see why. Fast turnaround, clear communication, and zero hassle.

Highly recommend them if you need CPAP or BiPAP repairs done right.
Response from the owner:Thank you!
Barbara S.
I just want to say Thank you for the best and easiest repair we have ever had. Professional, organized, excellent communications. Thank you. We have another machine and we will be in touch. We appreciate so much.
Response from the owner:Thank you!
John B.
Fast, great communication, and job done right the first time.

My CPAP machine started making 'whale wheezing' noises when I breathed, so seemed like the motor had thrown a bearing or something. Sent it in, got a diagnosis and quote within 24hrs of them receiving it. I said "Yes, please" and they had it done and shipped back the next day.
Response from the owner:Thanks for sharing!

Altra was a dream to work with regarding my BiPap machine repair. Very personable as well as professional staff. They changed the unit motor while I waited.

Thank you Bob!!!
