Can I use my machine overseas?

It depends on the electrical requirements of both the machine and the destination. Check with the user manual and your destination to ensure compatibility.

What should I do for Oxygen if my machine needs repair?

Portable oxygen concentrators are machines and unfortunately will eventually fail. If you are going to own your oxygen equipment, you should have a pre-determined backup plan in the event of a power outage or mechanical failure. The first thing you should do in preparation is to have a copy of your oxygen prescription. In the event that your machine does break down, you could contact a local oxygen provider to temporarily rent a machine until yours is fixed. Complete our schedule service form to get the ball rolling!

Can you bill Medicare, Medicaid, or Private Insurance Companies?

No. This is an out of pocket expense. We provide a detailed invoice and service record which you can submit to your insurance provider for possible reimbursement. Contact Medicare or your insurance carrier to see if they have a benefit for medical equipment repairs. For a copy of Medicare Form 1490S, click here: https://altraservice.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/CMS-1490S.pdf. Please note that we are not a homecare provider and do not have a National Provider Identification number (NPI), which Medicare or private insurance may require for reimbursement.

What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept Visa, Mastercard, Discover, American Express, Check, Cash, FSA, and HSA.

Do you sell replacement filters for CPAP’s and portable oxygen concentrators?

Yes. We sell some CPAP filters on our online stope at shop.altraservice.com. We do not sell POC filters. If your POC filter is dirty, we will add it to your repair estimate.

Is there an evaluation or estimate fee?

Commercial Customers: There is a $35 bench fee for declined estimates. If you would like us to scrap the unit, we will waive the evaluation fee.

Patients / End Users: We do not charge an evaluation fee – ever. We will charge for the return shipping. If you would like us to scrap the unit, we will waive the return shipping fee.

What is the best way to send my machine to you?

Do I need to contact anyone before sending in my machine for service?

Yes. Please complete our Schedule Service form so we can track the equipment to you when we receive it.

What is preventive maintenance?

Preventive maintenance is a set of maintenance tasks recommended by the manufacturer performed at a certain interval or usage hours to help prolong the useful life of the machine. PM tasks vary based on equipment types. It ranges from a simple safety check to rebuild or replacement of components.

How often should I have my portable oxygen concentrator checked?

You should have your portable oxygen concentrator checked by a trained technician on an annual basis. There are certain indicators that an oxygen concentrator will display to prompt preventive maintenance measures. Performing routine service to components on a regular basis reduces the likelihood of an equipment failure, prolonged downtime, and additional costs.

How often should I have my CPAP serviced?

Most newer models do not require Preventive Maintenance, however, it is good practice to have the pressure checked against a manometer on an annual basis to ensure the pressure is accurate. We perform preventive maintenance for $45, plus the cost of the filter, if needed, and the return shipping. This includes an internal inspection with cleaning, calibration of the pressure and flow sensors, and a full computerized testing of the machine. In addition, filters should be replaced regularly to ensure optimal performance.

How much will it cost to have my equipment repaired?

This depends on the type of equipment and issue that is wrong with it, so unfortunately we can’t give a blanket answer. Feel free to contact us for a very rough estimate.

How long will it take to have my equipment repaired?

Our turnaround time varies based on current repair requests and parts inventory. Most repairs are completed within 1 – 2  weeks.

What is your repair process?

Complete our Service Request Form so we have your contact information. You will receive a confirmation page and will be able to print off a free Pre-paid shipping label. POackage it in a way to minimize the chance for physical damage and bring the machine to a UPS drop off location.

Once we receive your machine, we will evaluate it and email you a repair estimate for your review. If approved, we will email an invoice to you. There will be a link to make a secure payment. Once paid, we will complete the repair and return the machine to you. You are also welcome to call us to pay over the phone at (888) 551-5267.

If your machine requires additional parts, then you will receive a revised invoice with the additional amount due. You can either approve and pay the additional amount, or reply to the email to decline the repair. If declined, we will refund the original payment, less the return shipping charge.

Will my oxygen explode?

No. Oxygen doesn’t explode or burn. It will make a fire burn faster and hotter, reducing your time to exit the premises where the oxygen is located. It is important to have an emergency plan and escape route in place.

Can I cook, burn candles, have a fireplace running, etc while I use oxygen?

The short answer is yes, however, you should exercise a reasonable amount of caution when performing these activities. When cooking, it is recommended to place the supply tubing underneath your shirt so the tubing does not dangle towards the heat of the oven or stove. When observing an open fire, the general rule of thumb is to have the oxygen equipment at least 10 feet away from the heating source and/or open flames.

What form of payments do you accept?

We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, Flexible Spending Accounts, check, and cash.

What is a CPAP?

CPAP stands for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. Simply put, a CPAP Machine blows air into your nose, mouth, or both to maintain an open airway during sleep. There are several different types of CPAP machines and interfaces to help the user obtain maximum comfort and therapy compliance.

What is an oxygen concentrator?

An oxygen concentrator is kind of like a fancy air purifier. The regular air we breathe is made up of approximately 22% oxygen. An oxygen concentrator absorbs nitrogen and allows the oxygen from the rest of the air particles and delivers medical grade oxygen directly to the end user. The room air is drawn into the oxygen concentrator through an inlet filter. The air is then compressed and goes into sieve beds, which extracts the nitrogen from the oxygen when under pressure. The oxygen then flows through the flow meter, final bacteria filter, and out to the end user through a supply hose. Oxygen concentrators make up to 96% pure medical grade oxygen.

I had a Philips Respironics SimplyGo Oxygen Concentrator that was used every night for over 2 years. My wife traveled on the planes with it and it sat by the bed and was used at night. It is very quiet compared to the big machines and will produce up to 3 ml continuous Oxygen, even on battery. It started going into an alarm state, and for a month or so we could silence the alarm. Then it would alarm within 5 min after silencing it. I contacted Altra Service Professionals and they suggested I send it to them for a regular service as the alarm means the purity of the oxygen is degraded. They even sent me a shipping label to send the machine to them. Turns out it just needed some filters cleaned, and they did a full diagonistic test on it and shipped it back to me. This company is Great, and the staff is knowlegable, friendly and professional. I highly recommend you contact them for any Oxygen needs or equipment repairs. They are the trusted pro's. Thank You Altra for great service, you have earned 5 Stars for Sure.

Great service all around. When my CPAP machine stopped working, my local medical supply store told me it was unfixable, and I would have to buy brand new. I connected with Altra Services online instead. They diagnosed and fixed the problem quickly. Good streamlined shipping process, ongoing communication and a fair price. I would definitely recommend Altra.

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!

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!

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.

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!!

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!

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!

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!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Bob and Team provided excellent communication, customer service and fixed my old CPAP (which had multiple issues) at a very reasonable price.
