Frequently Asked Questions


1) How are you supposed to run power to a stair lift?

Electric power (AC) stairlifts necessitate a grounded conventional 110v/20 amp outlet found at or close to the bottom or top of the stairs. Direct current, or battery-powered (DC) stairlifts use batteries capable of being recharged. Plug in the DC powered stairlift to recharge the battery when it's not being used. There are also DC powered units that enable the batteries to constantly charge while the DC power is used by the stairlift from the batteries. The battery operated stairlift will continue to run until it runs out of power, if there is a power outage. The DC stairlift will not run, if the transformer burns out and you also have to have the charger.

2) Can these lifts be used on wood flooring?

Lifts can be installed on all types of flooring (carpet, concrete, tile, marble, linoleum, or bare wooden stairs). Holes will be evident without carpeting when the stairlift is removed. But, the holes are not large and can be filled. Stairlifts can also be installed on wooden outdoor steps. The railing will be attached to your wooden steps. In fact, most professionally installed stairlifts in Williamsport cost between $500 and $1,000 for the labor given a variety of variables based on the issue of the occupation. Tile, metal stairways, or concrete are somewhat more difficult than wooden stairway. Having wooden stairs as a construction material of the staircase makes the occupation for an installer less labor intensive and affordable for you.

3) Can these be used on carpeted floors?

Elevators can be installed on all types of flooring (carpet, concrete, tile, marble, linoleum, or bare wooden stairway). Installers can twist right through the carpet. Professional installers don't cut the courses inside the house, because the aluminum chips are really hard to remove from the carpets. One thing that pros mention is that if your carpet is likely to need replacing in the next 5 years, before you've a stairlift installed you might want to replace it. Otherwise, you will have to factor in the price of uninstalling and re installing the stairlift.

4) Does AETNA cover the cost of these lifts?

No. Aetna bases this conclusion on whether several standards are met. The Aetna member must be: (1) incapable of standing up from a standard armchair at home; (2) and must have severe arthritis of the hip or knee, or have acute neuromuscular disease; (3) and the seat lift mechanism must be prescribed to effect improvement, or arrest or retard deterioration in the member's state; (4) and once standing, the member must have the ability to ambulate. Afterward, Aetna would contemplate seat lift mechanisms medically necessary durable medical equipment (DME). Because they may be considered house changes, nevertheless, Aetna doesn't cover stairlifts. They essentially follow Medicare's rules for aerodynamic lift mechanisms as explained in the question that handles Medicare coverage of these medical devices.

5) Does it increase or decrease the value of my home?

The overall worth of your house will not depreciate. In case you plan on selling your Williamsport dwelling, realtors used to urge that a stairlift be removed prior to placing your house on the Pennsylvania marketplace, however given increased life expectancy, this is not any longer the case. You go or may even totally remove the stairlift with no signs of setup when you want or desire it. Realtors can list that the stairlift is a high utility value for disabled people and that the home is suitable for living that is accessible independent and if a purchaser desires it removed, then that chance is offered by them.

6) Why are they so expensive to install?

Most importantly, they contain routine care and help you every step of the way. Open up any of the setup guides and you're going to see a warning any limited warranty will be voided by any deviation and that strict adherence to the installation directions is required and eliminate any opportunity you have of holding the maker liable for any damage or liability. Professional installation is far more economic in the long-run in terms of service guarantee and long-term care since they're trained to follow security measures and experienced at setup. The installer is getting paid to correctly install your unit so you do not face serious dangers that do result when the guide for the first time opens and installs a stairlift. A Williamsport professional also knows the best way to ensure that the stairlift follows fire exit demands, how to make sure that assure that all the proper functioning features are empowered, and the charger connections are working correctly to avoid serious injuries. The price you pay to really have a trained and trusted tech ensures your security and the longevity of your purchase. Also, installment includes lifting a good amount of weight. Many setups may be completed in a few hours by a professional.

7) About how long does it take to fully install one of these lifts in my Williamsport home?

A fitting can take between 1-2 hours for straight stairs. A Pennsylvania professional will install the railing initially, followed by the seat as well as the motor. Proper setup comprises walking you through the attributes of your new stairlift once it's been tested after the fitting. A fitting for a curved stairlift can take up to a half day.

8) How much does a good stair lift cost?

The cost averages around $3,500 to over $10,000 for a good stairlift. that is Assistance and rental systems are available. For a straight flight of stairs seem to spend between $2,500 to $6,000 and for a custom curved railing staircase prices are around $10,000. While others don't contain installation in the purchase price, some products are sold as complete packages including a warranty and installment. The shape of the stairwell, the span of the seat style the course, job, as well as the attributes you need determine the price.

9) Can you rent a stair lift for an extended period of time?

Because of individual circumstances you could be facing, you may need to rent a stairlift instead of buy one. Maybe you may have company for an extended period of time that will benefit from its use, perhaps you let your home, or someone in your household has had surgery or an accident and desires it briefly. Occasionally, determined by the medical condition, you simply can't be sure how long you'll need the stairlift and renting appears like the best alternative on a month-to-month basis. Rental systems often offer a minimum of 3 months and commonly include the setup and de-installation in the rental package. Some Pennsylvania companies even offer rent to own programs. Yet, it is important to consider the expense of installation and de-installation before picking this option instead of purchasing a stairlift that is used.

10) How are they powered?

Here's another remote to add to your set, if you have ever fought for the remote. You can save energy by turning it off with the remote also, when you are not using the stairlift. Stairlifts come in both battery-powered (D/C) and electrical (A/C) models. One concern is whether you live in a region that experiences lots of power outages, because you don't need to be stranded mid-lift during a storm. (Nevertheless, ask the manufacturer about the backup power system that should be contained in your version.) Additionally, consider the price of replacing the life of the battery and the battery. While some favor electric versions for reasons that range from battery life to some apparatus difficulties specific to battery models, others prefer battery-powered stairlifts, since they can lead to lower electric bills, although the expense of the electricity to control the stairlift has been considered insignificant by most makers. You do not need to plug in a battery charger after every use, since the battery model still has a wall plug to maintain the battery charged. Another thing to think about is the way inclined the user is, wires have to be disconnected and reconnected to fit the brand new battery and as the seat and casing on some models must be removed. Sometimes, this becomes a service call to an installer to create life simpler. Ask for instructions and see whether it's something that youwill wish to replace yourself. We'd be happy to assist you. Make sure there is a plug within several feet of the elevator if you decide on an electric version. No special outlets are essential. Ask the way to change the back up fuse on an electric stairlift.

11) How do stair lifts work?

Essentially, it's like riding in your ski lift, minus the bitter cold. You sit in a motorized swivel chair snugly equipped to make you as comfortable as possible with personalized characteristics. A safety belt keeps you firmly in place and a foot rest prevents you from hitting the steps while using the lift. Some stairlifts come with mounted call/send controls on the wall close to the paths for a user or you can definitely use a remote control to send the seat in which you would like it to go. Sometimes the control panel is situated on the seat arm. Become acquainted with the specific characteristics of your unit. The lift consists of a a carriage, a motor, the control system, as well as your comfortable seat so you can once more regain your mobility. Some models rely on a belt like a conveyor belt and a rack and pinion system is used by other models.

12) Can you apply for one of these lifts if you are on disability?

A person have a health condition which meets their definition of impairment and qualifies for Social Security disability benefits when they have worked in a job that was covered by Social Security. Benefits could be insured if you are injured or on handicap. Since SSI is a needs-based program and an SSI recipient must have limited income and resources, qualifications for the Plan for Achieving Self-Support (PASS) allows a person with a disability to achieve an occupational goal. The money that's set aside under a PASS can be used for anything that leads to an occupational goal and may be used to cover house modifications through an SSI savings strategy. You'll find out more about PASS through your Pennsylvania Social Security Administration office or call toll free 800-772-1213.
