Inogen At Home Stationary Oxygen Concentrator

Inogen At Home Oxygen Concentrator - Overview

One of the most energy-efficient, lightest, and quietest oxygen concentrators on the market today is the Inogen At Home Stationary Oxygen Concentrator. It is half the weight of its counterparts, weighing in at around 18 pounds. Inogen At Home is an oxygen concentrator with a continuous flow rate of up to 5 liters per minute (LPM). Continuous flow oxygen concentrators employ a nasal cannula to supply a consistent stream of supplementary oxygen to the user's nasal passage.

In addition to being extremely lightweight, the Inogen At Home is quiet, averaging roughly 40 dBA operating volume, or the volume of a quiet library. This home oxygen concentrator is also energy efficient, using the same amount of energy as a 100W light bulb on an oxygen flow setting of 2 LPM. It’s no surprise that Inogen oxygen concentrators are some of the most popular devices on the market.

Inogen At Home Battery Life

The Inogen At Home features a user-friendly interface, with a singular power button and two flow control buttons for the best oxygen concentrator for the home experience. Users can determine the current setting of their device with the help of three LED indicators on the control panel. One represents the current oxygen flow setting, while the other two LEDs are alarm indicators. Flashing LEDs indicate a higher-priority alarm that should be handled immediately.

To use the Inogen At Home, make sure the device is plugged into a known, working electrical outlet. As the concentrator has an air intake filter, ensure it is placed far enough away from a wall to allow air to circulate, and keep it out of dusty environments. Connect your nasal cannula to the output flow valve. Once plugged in, press the power button. A short beep will sound, and the LEDs will illuminate briefly. Ensure that oxygen is flowing through your tubing and place the cannula into your nostrils. Breathe normally.
