Aeroflow Healthcare has been selling and servicing manual and power operated wheel chairs for over 10 years. We carry a wide range of wheel chairs to help you achieve freedom and comfort. We have a well trained staff of Mobility Specialists that can assist you or a loved one pick out the most cost effective yet most comfortable Asheville NC manual wheelchair. We also service the chairs that we sell so if anything goes wrong (and it won’t) you just call us up.
When you shop with Aeroflow your Asheville NC manual wheelchair is custom configured to your exact requirements. Your needs are not going to be the same as another persons’ so it makes perfect sense that your chair should be made for you. But if you’re looking for something “off the shelf” we also have a wide variety of ready-to-roll models.
To keep your chair operating at peak performance we recommend the following maintenance steps that you can perform yourself:
• Check the air pressure in your tires periodically if you have air filled tires.
• Inspect your casters and caster forks for debris and clean them as necessary.
• Inspect your rear wheels for debris wrapped around the axle.
• If your wheelchair is a foldable type that can be transported, make sure that it unfolds smoothly all the way down into its locked position.
• Check your upholstery for rips or tears in the fabric especially around the secure points (screws).
• Inspect the wheel locks regularly. When you push or pull on the lever (depending on the type), it should go into the tire enough to keep it from moving. In most cases having the locking part set about 1/4 to 3/8 of an inch back from the tire in the open position will ensure it locks properly.
• Keep your wheelchair clean by wiping it down with a disinfectant periodically.
Remember, if you ever have any issues or problems with your Asheville NC manual wheelchair, don’t hesitate to give us a call.
