[Equipment] Sanitizing Used Machine
#11
RE: Sanitizing Used Machine
No dice. They said I'd need a script. The woman asked if I had a machine and knew the settings for it since that could help build a case, but sadly I have no reference for that at all.

RE: Sanitizing Used Machine
Sorry, I thought the one I was referring to was ASV. It's actually not, skip that then.

OK let's look at this with what there is. Do you think if you used ASV to build a case of necessity, your primary doctor will then script ASV?

I'm asking because that one at 15,000 on its clock, getting to 20K might be about 2 years usage before its end of life. The issue is that for a very used one at this price is pretty high.

RE: Sanitizing Used Machine
I found someone on Facebook market who I'll be meeting tomorrow. They bought an ASV that ended up not being a good fit for them and only used it a few times. I'll be inspecting the machine and making sure it works before I pay him, but if it works out then I'll be all set with a damn near new machine. 

Wish me luck!

RE: Sanitizing Used Machine
With regard to the original question, Supplier #28 can refurbish an Aircurve 10 ASV with a new motor for $228 plus shipping. Seals, general cleaning and calibration comes in under $300. All of these come back as a device with zero run-hours. I have found the medium priority USPS package will fit the device with a wrap of bubble wrap protection, so you can easily ship and include a return shipping label and that will save some money. I have used the service and it basically results in a completely new refurbished machine. They will give you an estimate if you call. In my case the turn-around was 1-week.

RE: Sanitizing Used Machine
On the used Facebook sale, confirm the machine actually works, isn't in a smoker home, verify with your own eyes the run hours in the clinical menu. This is the total hour meter for the machine, not the user time. If you can't plug it in, myself would be sorry no sale.
