Are you confused about choosing the perfect oxygen concentrator? Both HACENOR portable and home oxygen concentrators are suitable, offering many advantages for their users. This blog compares home and portable oxygen concentrators and lets you know which option is best for you.
People depending on supplemental oxygen therapies use various devices for receiving the oxygen therapy. In recent times, HACENOR oxygen concentrators have taken the market by standing out from the traditional methods of oxygen therapy. There is no special installation requirement or constant need for gas cylinders, making it easy to use at any time without any hassle. HACENOR oxygen concentrators are efficient, reliable, cost-effective, and flexible.
The significant difference between home and oxygen concentrators lies in where you need to use them. This primary difference contributes to the differences in size, weight, and power options.
Size
Size is an important characteristic to consider that affects the portability and functionality of the oxygen concentrator unit. Home oxygen concentrators are also called stationary oxygen concentrators as they are more extensive. The bigger the size, the bigger the weight of the unit. On average, the size of a home unit is 2 to 4 times bigger than portable units. The size makes home units comparatively challenging to carry, but they are still easier with wheels attached to the unit’s base.
Weight
The body and internal parts of the oxygen concentrator contribute to its weight. It is one of the most influential factors people consider purchasing the device as it affects their portability. The larger the unit size, the more the weight. Portable oxygen concentrators have small dimensions and are lighter than home units. Home oxygen concentrators have more weight than portable oxygen concentrators. On average, the portable unit weight is ⅓ of the home or stationary unit.
Power
Oxygen concentrators use electricity to perform their functions. Home oxygen concentrators utilize more power compared to portable units. Home oxygen concentrators primarily work on AC and require more than 190 watts of input for working. Portable oxygen concentrators work on batteries, AC or DC, requiring only 18 watts.
Oxygen Flow
Oxygen output is the only functional metric of oxygen concentrators. The primary factor takes the lead above all the other elements. A person can not compromise on the quality of oxygen or liters of oxygen produced per minute.Please select the oxygen flow mode(continuous flow or pulse flow) and oxygen flow rate according to your needs.

Conclusion
Home and portable oxygen concentrators serve the same function of producing and delivering supplemental oxygen for oxygen therapy. The final choice of selecting the unit type depends on the person’s activity requiring oxygen therapy and several other factors, including size, weight, price, power options, and more. One must choose the one that fits their requirement.
