Getting Financed for the Respironics SimplyFlo

The SimplyGo holds court as the smallest and lightest stationary oxygen concentrator on the market today.

It has 1 and 2 LPM (liters per minute) continuous flow settings and is very portable and energy efficient.

Why would an oxygen therapy patient want the SimplyFlo?

First, you have to make sure it will cover your oxygen therapy needs. If you need more than 2 LPM of continuous flow oxygen, then the SimplyFlo is not for you. If you are prescribed 1 LPM or 2 LPM, then it will meet your oxygen needs.

An In-Review of the Respironics SimplyFlo Home Concentrator

Philips’ Respironics SimplyFlo Home Concentrator is the most compact and lightweight stationary oxygen concentrator available on the market. With a 2 liter per minute (LPM) continuous flow supply of oxygen, fewer than 9 pounds (4.1 kilograms) of weight, and very small dimensions, it is perfect for a patient who travels frequently or wants to maintain an active lifestyle without compromising his or her oxygen therapy.

It represents the middle ground between full-size home oxygen concentrators and fully portable ones. It has much smaller dimensions and weight than the former, but unlike the latter, it still requires an external power source to work. As the manufacturer states, it is best suited for overnight use as an alternative to the large, intimidating oxygen concentrators that cause many patients to reject oxygen therapy.

Why You’ll Love the SimplyFlo

We know that technology is always advancing, and this is definitely to the advantage of people who use oxygen concentrators to help make sure they are getting the right amount of oxygen throughout their bodies.

Meet the Respironics SimplyFlo!

At first glance, you might mistake it for a portable oxygen concentrator because of how small and light it is. It resembles the Respirionics EverGo or the SimplyGo in stature and weight, but it can provide up to 2 LPM of continuous flow and requires no batteries. This is a great solution for those active patients who require the right amount of continuous oxygen flow at night, since it needs to be plugged in to work and doesn’t run on a battery.
