CENTENNIAL, CO – Pulmonary therapy patients who use oxygen concentrators to maintain an active lifestyle face difficulties in planning travel because home respiratory units are not portable and patients can't be off of oxygen for extended periods of time. American Medical Sales and Repair and its Oxygen Concentrator Store, the country's largest online purveyor of such equipment, recently revised its portable oxygen concentrator rental program to bring these patients the flexibility they need for therapeutic mobility and travel.

"We have expanded our rental fleet of portable oxygen concentrators from three popular brand name units to four and added the two newest and lightest units. The fleet now gives patients four options for pulse concentrators and two options for continuous flow concentrators," says Jennifer Hopkins, AMSR CEO and Partner. "We have also added daily rentals (7-day minimum) to our formerly weekly-only rental programs so patients have the flexibility of paying for just the mobility they require."

An estimated 10 million Americans suffer from some form of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, COPD, including such conditions as emphysema, chronic bronchitis and alpha 1-antitrypsin disease, and require oxygen on a regular basis to combat symptoms and maintain an active lifestyle. The Oxygen Concentrator Store sells and services new and refurbished home-based units and portable concentrators, and has created a rental program to accommodate patients who wish to try out a unit before making a purchasing decision, and also for those who regularly use a home concentrator and need a short-term rental of a portable unit for travel.

The Concentrator Store, with a physical store and service facility in suburban Denver and available nationwide online at our web site, has six  popular brand-name portable oxygen concentrators in its rental program: SeQual Eclipse and DeVilbissiGO, both of which are continuous flow units; and Inogen One , Inogen One G2, Invacare XPO2 and RespironicsEvergo, which are all pulse units. Rentals may now be arranged on a daily basis, with a 7-day minimum rental period, and customers may apply the full value of their rental to the purchase of a new portable concentrator. In addition, all of the oxygen concentrators in the rental program are approved for airline travel.

With more than 20 years of experience, AMSR and its Oxygen Concentrator Store are one of the oldest and most experienced oxygen concentrator retailers in America, and is the largest online merchant of such devices in the world. The company recently became a Better Business Bureau of Denver/Boulder Accredited Business, and holds a BBB A+ rating.
