Frequently Asked Questions


1) How do stair lifts work?

Essentially, it is like riding in your own ski lift, minus the bitter cold. You sit in a motorized swivel chair snugly equipped to make you as comfortable as possible with personalized features. A safety belt keeps you securely in place and a foot rest prevents you from hitting the steps while utilizing the lift. Some stairlifts call/send controls on the wall near the trails for a user or you can definitely use a remote control to send the seat where you would like it to go. Occasionally the control panel can be found on the seat arm. Become acquainted with the specific features of your unit. You can control the speed and adjust the seat as you travel up and down your stairway once you're prepared, depending on the model you purchased or rented. The lift consists of a motor, passenger car, the control system, as well as your comfy seat so you could once more regain your mobility. Some versions rely on a belt like a conveyor belt and other versions utilize a rack and pinion system.

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

The total value of your home will not depreciate. If you plan on selling your Flagstaff residence, realtors used to advocate that a stairlift be removed prior to placing your house on the Arizona marketplace, yet given increased life expectancy, this is not any longer the case. You may also completely remove the stairlift with no signs of installation when you desire or no longer want it or go. Realtors can list that the stairlift is a high utility value for disabled people and that the dwelling is suitable for living that is reachable independent and if a purchaser needs it removed, then that chance is offered by them.

3) How fast do stairlifts go?

Usually the speed ranges from 13.78 feet per minute to 29.53 feet per minute with the speed changing with the rider's weight, all within the recommended industry standard. The maximum speed in the usa is 40 feet per minute. Units can include an emergency brake safety feature in the event you feel out of control descending. The American Society of Mechanical Engineers oversees the standards for stairs chair lifts for matters of public safety, including speed under ASME A18.1.. Some manufacturers provide a changeable speed of 0 to 38 feet per minute.

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

Someone qualifies for Social Security disability benefits when they have worked in a job that was insured by Social Security and have a medical condition which meets their definition of disability. Benefits could be covered, if you're injured or on handicap. Since SSI is a needs-based plan and an SSI recipient must have limited income and resources, qualification for the Plan for Achieving Self-Support (PASS) allows a person with a disability to achieve an occupational objective. The cash that's set aside under a PASS can be used for anything that contributes to an occupational objective and can be utilized to cover home modifications via an SSI savings plan. You will find out more about PASS through your Arizona Social Security Administration office or call toll free 800-772-1213.

5) How much would a cheap one cost?

You could likely find a cheap stairlift for about $1,000, but we also urge you be careful of scams. Many people soon learned that there were flaws in the unit and have purchased a unit that was very cheap or they didn't operate properly once they got them. Quality is important as you may end up spending more to keep a cheap purchase. To be able to locate a reasonable option, consider buying used versions or letting one. Scroll through this page to see our advice on searching for units that are affordable and financing alternatives.

6) Is there any permanent damage when installing one of these lifts?

No. One of the reasons that the stairlifts are attached to the stairway is to shield your Flagstaff home from damage related to setup. The few screws can be handled by the treads of the stairs. The holes are not difficult to cover. The entire value of your home won't depreciate. Should you plan on selling your home, realtors used to urge that a stairlift be removed prior to placing your house out there, nevertheless given increased life expectancy, this is not any longer the case. You transfer or may also entirely remove the stairlift with no signs of installation when you no longer want or need it.

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

Electric-power (AC) stairlifts demand a grounded regular 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 when it is not being used to recharge the battery. There are also DC powered units that enable the batteries to continuously charge while the stairlift uses the DC power from the batteries. The charger unit will convert the voltage to DC. When there is a power outage, the battery used stairlift will continue to run until it runs out of power. The DC stairlift will not run, if the transformer burns out and you also have to possess the charger serviced.

8) How sturdy are these lifts to install?

The sturdiness of the chair assembly and path of a stairlift can vary so it's not bad to do some homework. As a way to find out how tough a stairlift is, ensure it is powerful enough for the most significant user by comparing maximum weight capacities. More than a few companies maintain the toughest in the business is the model that provides the heaviest weight capacity at 400 lbs.. Heavier duty models need larger batteries and more sturdy trails. Most elevators are made to fit passengers who weigh 250 pounds or less. Heavy duty versions cost more so make sure you get the model that matches the individual who'll use the stairlift. Always check whether the maker has an established reputation for strong, safe and well-made products.

9) How much do they weigh?

The units are not light, which is among the reasons we don't advocate attempting to install them yourself. The lightest units on the market weigh 165-180 pounds installed (chair and track). Some units weight over 250 pounds installed. Trails and chair assemblages come in various sizes and shapes and are made of several types of stuff depending on its finest features and the model.

10) Are there any structural modifications needed before installing a lift?

No. There are not any adjustments which are mandatory, since stairlifts don't attach to the wall. The stairlift is installed into existing stair treads. The single thing that we do recommend is that if you're intending to change the flooring or carpeting on your stairs in the following five years, you may want to intend to do it before you install your stairlift to avert future removal and re installation prices.

11) How much do electric stair lifts cost in Flagstaff?

Used electrical-powered stairlifts can start at about $1,299.00, while battery powered stairlifts can start at about $1,399.00 in Arizona. Both models are comparably priced when you buy them new. The cost difference is negligible initially. In the future, electrical-powered stairlifts may cost you if you factor in the purchase price of replacement and care batteries. Frequently, it is recommended to have the battery rather than attempt to replace it yourself although there are batteries that are fairly simple to install determined by the model. Most batteries are rated to last for about 3,200 one way trips, but the life of the battery really depends how frequently you use the stairlift.

12) How are they powered?

In the event you've ever fought for the remote, here's another remote to add to your set. 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 electric (A/C) versions. One factor is whether you live in a region that experiences a great deal of power outages, as you don't need to be stranded mid-elevator during a thunderstorm. (However, ask the maker about the backup power system which should be contained in your version.) Additionally, consider the cost of replacing the battery as well as the life of the battery. While some favor electric models for reasons that range from battery life to some device issues specific to battery models, others favor battery powered stairlifts, since they could result in lower electric bills, although the cost of the electricity to use the stairlift has been considered negligible by most manufacturers. Since the battery version has a wall plug to maintain the battery charged, you really do not need to plug in a battery charger after every use. Another thing to consider is how mechanically inclined the user is, wires have to be disconnected and reconnected to add the new battery and as the seat and housing on some models must be removed. Ask for instructions and see if it's something you will want to replace yourself. We'd be happy to assist you. In the event you choose an electric model, make certain there is a plug within a couple of feet of the elevator. No special outlets are mandatory. Ask the best way to change the back up fuse on an electrical stairlift.
