What is the warranty?
Summit to Sea offers a two-year warranty on their chambers that covers all components. You will have the option to purchase a warranty extension at any time during the initial warranty period, if desired.
What about less expensive chambers?
There are less expensive options overseas, but there have been a number of accidents with these chambers reported online. Summit-to-Sea is FDA cleared and American made. Summit has sold chambers for nearly 20 years and possesses an excellent reputation among both consumers and distributors.
How easy is the chamber to operate?
Once you enter, you’ll connect three straps and seal the unit by closing two zippers. You’re then ready to pressurize. Full pressurization takes around 5 minutes. In short time, you’ll be able to do this quickly and easily.
What conditions can be treated with Hyperbaric or HBOT?
As of today, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) use is officially recognized for a number of conditions. You can see the Full list of covered conditions by visiting medicare.gov. Since the mechanism supports increased circulation and oxygenation of tissues, however, HBOT can be more broadly applied to support many other areas of health.
What is the difference between a hard chamber and a soft chamber?
Soft sided chambers function at a lower pressure, but can be operated by consumers for home use. They offer the ability to do dives more frequently and over a longer period of time. Published research validates the benefits attained from soft sided chambers. Learn more here
Can I increase the efficacy of soft chamber use?
Yes! You can buy an oxygen concentrator, which will further increase the percentage of oxygen saturation received to 94%. Oxygen concentrators are available for purchase when you place an order for a chamber.
What kind of support can I expect?
A Breath Above provides free email and telephone support to help you get your chamber set up and running. We want you to have the best experience possible, so we’re here to walk you through the initial set up and provide ongoing support down the road. If you have more questions prior to purchasing, please contact us through the information provided on our home page.
Can I operate the chamber by myself?
Yes! Your unit will come with a remote that can be brought inside the chamber. Once you enter and seal yourself in, you can activate the compressors to pressurize the chamber. You can then deactivate them with the same remote when your session concludes. Alternatively, a second person could carry out all these operations outside the chamber as well.
Why should I buy a soft chamber?
There is no more convenient way to receive HBOT than in the comfort of your own home. You can stay in for as long as you like and exit at your own convenience. You can do one session/day or two. You can make use of your chamber dozens or hundreds of times. If you were to add up the cost of driving, purchasing sessions at a clinic and time spent in travel and scheduling, you would end up spending more money over time versus having your own chamber at home.
