CPAP Devices
At VitalAire, patients can trial their CPAP equipment before they purchase, and receive excellent support throughout their treatment. We will always follow your prescription and referral guidelines.
Devices, masks and accessories
VitalAire supplies the latest innovative devices manufactured by ResMed, Philips Respironics, Fisher & Paykel and others.
All CPAP machines operate on the same principle and have the same three basic components. The key differences between the machines come down to treatment algorithm and a few other usability and comfort features, all of which we can discuss with you or your patient.
All equipment supplied by VitalAire is CSA approved.
Why should my patients buy at VitalAire and not online?
CPAP therapy, without an expert support network, is likelier to not succeed.
At VitalAire, your patients can access different CPAP modalities before committing to their chosen CPAP equipment. Many of our patients who have purchased CPAP masks and machines online come to VitalAire after the equipment did not fit properly, or they did not know how to adjust it as needed.
Our 35+ years of experience show that patients cannot initiate CPAP therapy or adhere to CPAP therapy on their own. Committing to a purchase through VitalAire guarantees your patients’ continuous sleep apnea treatment education and support not available through online sellers.
VitalAire is Accredited - Our processes & procedures are accredited by Accreditation Canada, the same group that endorses hospitals.
We also provide different payment options, and in some geographies equipment rental, and help your patients ensure they have maximum access to any publically available funding programs along with private insurance, and will help them through the administrative process.
We always recommend that patients visit our clinics for professional consultation as needed, so that they can ensure they are getting the optimal results possible. Some patients find that a combination of one manufacturer’s CPAP device and another’s mask suits them. We can explain how different equipment works together and come up with the best solution.
All CPAP equipment supplied by VitalAire is supported by our excellent customer support team, along with all manufacturers’ warranties and service elements
At VitalAire, your patients can return for service again and again and if there is any problem with a product, we are a phone call or a short visit away.
