Mild Hyperbaric Chamber Buyer's Guide: What to Know Before You Spend $8K–$20K

Short answer: Across the five brands we carry, soft-shell home chambers run from about $4,095 to $22,990 and hard-shell chambers from about $25,299 to $82,000. Whether an oxygen concentrator comes with the chamber depends on the brand: Newtowne lists it as an optional add-on, and Macy-Pan, OxyRevo and Oxyair list one with their chambers. Talk to your physician first: per the manufacturer, Newtowne chambers require a prescription to purchase.

Step 1: Talk to your physician before you shop

Newtowne states that its chambers are FDA cleared under 510(k) K051759 and require a prescription. Check the same for every other brand. A hyperbaric chamber is a pressurized environment, and some conditions make pressure changes risky. Getting medical guidance first also tells you whether a chamber makes sense for you at all. Our Hyperbaric Chamber Guide covers pressure levels and regulation in more detail.

Step 2: Budget for more than the chamber

• The chamber. See the brand table below.
• An oxygen concentrator, if it is not included. Newtowne's concentrator is an optional add-on, so price it separately. Macy-Pan, OxyRevo and Oxyair list a concentrator with the chamber.
• Space. Measure the room, doorways and the route the boxed chamber will take.
• Warranty. Newtowne lists 2 years and Macy-Pan lists 24 months.

Step 3: Decide who and how

• How many people will use it? Sizes range from one adult to two or three adults, and multiplace hard-shell chambers hold more.
• Lying down or sitting up? Horizontal chambers suit lying or reclining. Vertical and sitting chambers let you sit in a chair, work at a desk or stand.
• Does anyone need wheelchair, gurney or stretcher access? Several models are built for it. See accessible chambers.
• Soft-shell or hard-shell? See soft-shell vs. hard-shell.

Questions to ask any seller

1. What is the working pressure, and how is it regulated (valves, gauges, alarms)?
2. Are the compressors redundant, and is there a power-monitoring alarm?
3. What is the regulatory status, and is a prescription required?
4. Is an oxygen concentrator included, and at what flow rate? If not, which one do I need?
5. What does the warranty cover, and who services it?
6. What ships in the box (frame, mattress, gauges, carrying case)?
7. What support do I get with setup and training?

Red flags

• Promises to cure or treat specific diseases. Sellers should not make medical claims for these devices.
• No mention of a prescription, regulatory status or the manufacturer's manual.
• A price that leaves out the oxygen source without saying so.
