At Auxo Medical, we understand that anesthesia equipment is critical to patient safety and successful medical procedures. Ensuring your anesthesia machines, monitors, and related equipment operate flawlessly is essential for healthcare providers. That’s why we offer expert anesthesia equipment repair and maintenance services, backed by factory training, extensive experience, and a customer-first approach.
In this article, we will explore why partnering with us for your anesthesia equipment maintenance needs makes a significant difference. From preventative maintenance to emergency repairs and equipment upgrades, Auxo Medical is your trusted service provider.
Why Proper Anesthesia Equipment Maintenance Matters
Anesthesia machines are highly complex devices responsible for delivering precise mixtures of gases and anesthetics to patients during surgery. Failure or malfunction of these machines can have serious consequences, including compromised patient safety and surgical delays.
Proper maintenance and timely repairs ensure:
- Reliable performance of anesthesia machines
- Continued patient and staff safety
- Compliance with regulatory standards
- Reduced equipment downtime and unexpected failures
- Extended equipment life and optimized total cost of ownership (TCO)
At Auxo Medical, we take these responsibilities seriously, providing you with peace of mind through comprehensive service and expert care.
Our Expertise: Factory-Trained, Certified Technicians
We pride ourselves on having AAMI Certified Biomedical Equipment Technicians (CBET) who are factory trained by GE and Mindray, two leading manufacturers in anesthesia technology. This specialized training means our technicians have deep knowledge and direct manufacturer insight, allowing us to:
- Follow manufacturer specifications precisely during maintenance and repairs
- Identify potential issues early during preventative maintenance (PM) inspections
- Perform efficient, high-quality repairs using the correct tools and parts
- Calibrate equipment to ensure accurate anesthetic delivery
Our team also services a wide range of brands and models beyond GE and Mindray, including Datex-Ohmeda, Aespire, Dräger, Penlon, and more. No matter your equipment, we’re equipped to keep it running at peak performance.
What We Service: Complete Anesthesia Equipment Coverage
Our maintenance and repair services cover every critical component of anesthesia equipment, including:
- Oxygen source systems

- High, intermediate, and low-pressure systems
By maintaining every aspect of your anesthesia machines, we ensure full operational integrity and safety compliance.
Preventative Maintenance Plans Tailored to Your Needs
One of the best ways to avoid costly downtime is through scheduled preventative maintenance. At Auxo Medical, we offer custom PM plans equivalent or superior to manufacturer programs, but at a lower hourly repair rate.
Our preventative maintenance services include:
- Thorough inspections to detect and address issues before they escalate
- Calibration and functional testing to maintain precise anesthetic delivery
- Replacement of worn or obsolete parts using OEM kits
- Documentation support to keep your regulatory records complete
Scheduled PM visits reduce unexpected breakdowns and keep your anesthesia equipment functioning reliably year-round.
Emergency Repair Services—Available 24/7, 365 Days a Year
We know that anesthesia equipment failure can happen at any time, often when you least expect it. That’s why Auxo Medical offers around-the-clock emergency repair services to minimize disruption to your operations.
- Our technicians respond swiftly to service calls, often arriving within hours.
- Most repairs are completed the same day, reducing downtime.
- We carry a full range of parts and tools to handle emergency fixes on the spot.
Please note: after-hours emergency service calls carry a 4-hour minimum labor charge from 4:30 pm to 8 am.

Auxo Medical maintains a fully stocked warehouse with OEM preventative maintenance kits and parts for both current and obsolete anesthesia equipment models. Our technicians also carry essential parts during service visits to:
- Expedite repairs without waiting for parts delivery
