Airway clearance
Mission-critical, and easy to keep that way.
Suction that holds up to field use. We help you choose for reliability and simple upkeep between calls — the two things that decide whether a unit works when someone reaches for it.
What this category covers
Portable suction units and onboard suction, plus the accessories that keep them in service. Most agencies need some of each, and the split depends on how your crews actually work a scene.
This is also the category most likely to be missing or dead when it is needed, and the least likely to be noticed until then. Suction sits untouched between the calls where it matters absolutely — which is exactly why infection control, battery management, and how simple it is to check belong in the buying decision, not after it.
What we weigh with you
Tell us what you run and how you run it. These are the things we work through before we recommend anything.
- Portable, onboard, or both
- What has to come off the truck and what stays on it is the first question, and it is an operational one.
- Reliability in field use
- This equipment gets carried, dropped, and stored. It has to work anyway.
- Infection control & upkeep
- Simple upkeep is a feature. Anything a crew has to remember at 3am is a risk, not a capability.
- Your vehicles and your budget
- What mounts, what powers it, and what your board will approve.
Checked on a schedule, not on a hunch.
Through ProTek by LifeMed, inspection is a structured check of the unit’s condition and function — what is working, what is wearing, and what will need attention next. Preventive maintenance and repair run through the same operation, on-site at your station or at our Loveland bench.
The service record stays on file for the life of each unit: what was found, what was done, the PM date and the next-due date, and any parts replaced. Retrievable on request.
Tell us what you're working with. We'll tell you what we'd do.
A serial number, a photo of the unit, or a rough description. You don't need a part number.
Always in service. Always ready.
