Hoist Servicing & Repairs
Professional Hoist Servicing for Care Homes and Healthcare Facilities
Aire provides professional hoist servicing and repairs for care homes, nursing homes, hospitals and healthcare facilities across Somerset and the South West.
Our engineers service and repair a wide range of patient lifting equipment, helping care providers keep their equipment safe, reliable and available for use.
From routine preventative maintenance to urgent repairs, we can help with mobile patient hoists, ceiling track hoists and associated lifting equipment.
What is Mobile Hoist Servicing?
Regular servicing helps identify wear, deterioration and potential faults before they become bigger problems.
Our engineers can service mobile patient hoists from a range of manufacturers, carrying out checks on the mechanical, electrical and operational components of the equipment.
Servicing can include checks of:
-
Lifting mechanisms and actuators
-
Batteries and charging systems
-
Emergency lowering systems
-
Brakes and castors
-
Controls and handset operation
-
Slings and attachment points
-
Structural components
-
Safety features
-
General condition and operation
-
Where a fault or issue is identified, we can advise on the required repair and, where appropriate, carry out the work.
Ceiling Track Hoist Servicing
Aire also provides servicing and maintenance for ceiling track hoist systems used within care homes and healthcare environments.
Our engineers can inspect the hoist unit and relevant components of the system to identify signs of wear, damage or deterioration.
Regular maintenance can help reduce unexpected breakdowns and ensure equipment continues to operate reliably for staff and residents
Preventative Hoist Maintenance
Regular preventative maintenance can help identify problems before they result in equipment failure.
Aire can help care providers establish suitable servicing schedules for their patient lifting equipment, alongside required inspections and examinations.
Our aim is to help reduce unexpected breakdowns, extend equipment life and keep essential lifting equipment available for use.
Hoist Repairs.
When a patient hoist develops a fault, getting it repaired quickly can be important to maintaining the availability of essential care equipment.
Aire provides hoist repairs for a range of common faults, including issues with:
-
Batteries and charging
-
Actuators and lifting mechanisms
-
Handsets and controls
-
Emergency lowering systems
-
Castors and brakes
-
Electrical components
-
Lifting arms and structural components
-
Other mechanical and electrical components
Our engineers will diagnose the fault and explain what is required before carrying out appropriate repairs.
Hoist Servicing and LOLER Inspections
Hoist servicing and LOLER examinations are separate activities, although both are important parts of maintaining patient lifting equipment.
A LOLER thorough examination assesses lifting equipment for safety and identifies defects that could present a risk. Servicing and maintenance are focused on maintaining the equipment's condition and operation.
Aire can provide both hoist servicing and LOLER inspection services, helping care providers manage their patient lifting equipment through one experienced service provider.
