Homefill oxygen devices or oxygen transfill systems are popularly known as Oxygen Refill Systems. They are portable oxygen refill devices which are used at home to fill empty oxygen tanks. By using oxygen concentrator technology, the concentrated oxygen is extracted from room air to oxygen refill machines. This gives the user an unlimited refill of oxygen. The concentrated air is then pressurized by the refill system to fill the oxygen cylinders. Patients get more liberty as now they don’t have to depend on oxygen vendors for a refill.

An empty oxygen cylinder can be refilled at any time. It does not matter if the patient is away for shopping or taking a nap. There are no restrictions on refilling the cylinder. Turn on the machine and attach the empty cylinder to refill oxygen tank at home. After refilling, the portable oxygen tank can be used instantly or can be kept in as a reserve. Oxygen refilling also saves the space required for storing the number of reserve tanks. Always make sure that the cylinder is filled with oxygen so as to prevent emergency situations and risk the life of the patient in any case. There is no harm in having extra oxygen stored in the tank.

An oxygen refill system can be used at places that have a regular supply of 110-120-volt electricity. Most common places are home, offices, hotels, and even cruiser boats. Oxygen tank refill is not a rocket science and so a basic knowledge of appliances can help a person easily plug in the concentrator and fill in the oxygen.
