If you’re unsure how to get started, we’re here to help. This guide will walk you through the steps to getting set up with medical oxygen and introduce you to **OxyGo’s** range of products, each designed to meet your specific oxygen therapy needs. ## **Choosing the right product** The first step is understanding what your prescription requires. Your doctor or healthcare provider will specify how much oxygen you need (flow rate) and whether you need continuous flow or pulse delivery. These details are important in determining which oxygen concentrator will work best for you. At OxyGo, we offer a variety of products to match different oxygen needs: - **OxyGo FIT**: A lightweight, portable oxygen concentrator (POC) that is perfect for active individuals. Weighing just 2.8 pounds and offering up to **3 oxygen settings**, this POC is perfect for those who want a small, portable option. It’s easy to carry and provides oxygen support while allowing you to stay active. - **OxyGo NEXT**: Designed for users who require more oxygen or longer battery life, the OxyGo NEXT delivers **up to 13 hours of battery life** with **6 flow settings** (with an extended battery) and offers higher oxygen output. It’s robust, reliable, and ensures you get the oxygen you need during longer trips or busy days. - **OxyHome**: If you need a stationary oxygen solution, OxyHome provides continuous oxygen delivery with minimal noise and a sleek, modern design that blends easily into your home environment. Its twin blower cooling design, **5-setting continuous flow,** and consistent performance ensure you receive oxygen therapy throughout the day.  ## **Learning How to Use Your Oxygen Device** Once you’ve received your OxyGo product from your provider, learning how to use it is simple. OxyGo devices are user-friendly and come with comprehensive instructions. User Manuals for each oxygen concentrator are provided on the OxyGo website along with informational articles and videos. ## **Maintaining Your Oxygen Equipment** To keep your OxyGo device running smoothly, it’s important to follow the maintenance guidelines included with your product. Regular cleaning and care of filters and other parts will help extend the life of your device. Check the user manual for maintenance instructions or contact your oxygen provider for help.   ## **Ready to Start Your Oxygen Therapy Journey?** Getting started with oxygen therapy doesn’t have to be difficult. With OxyGo’s range of products, you’ll find a solution that fits your lifestyle and oxygen needs. Whether you need the portability of the **OxyGo FIT**, the long-lasting performance of the **OxyGo NEXT**, or the home-based reliability of the **OxyHome**, our devices are designed to make oxygen therapy as easy and comfortable as possible. -

I used tanks for almost a year before finding out about OxyGo. The tanks were a lot of work and I often found them exhausting to use and set up … OxyGo gave me my life back. Now I want to go places. I can take OxyGo to the pool, beach, grocery store, shopping. I am often gone 8-10 hours a day." ~ Cathy W. | Sandusky, OH "OxyGo has given my mom her life back and mine too. Freedom to be the type of person she was before. The extra double battery is even more amazing. Before OxyGo she could not go to Columbus, two hours away to see my sister. Now she can see her grandkids—It’s a product that has definitely made her life a lot happier." ~ Angela W. | Sandusky, OH "I have patients coming in to switch out for the OxyGo POC because of its battery life. And they love and feel safer with the OxyGo POC because it shows exactly how much time is left to the minute rather than showing remaining time in percentages, which is what units competitive to OxyGo POCs do. Expressing remaining oxygen supply in exact minutes left is a big comfort advantage OxyGo has with patients." ~ Ruben L. | Wickenburg, AZ "My life with OxyGo is really 103% better than it ever was with a medical oxygen tank!" ~ Rodger R. | Colorado Springs, CO "When I found out that I needed oxygen, I thought many activities were lost to me. OxyGo has restored my confidence in getting where I want to be, and my enjoyment in doing what I love." ~ Karen A. | Cleveland, OH [Share Your Story!](https://oxygo.life/contact-us/) - [Home](https://oxygo.life/) - [Get OxyGo](https://oxygo.life/oxygo-family/get-oxygo-today/) - [Privacy](https://oxygo.life/privacy-policy/) [866-234-1692](tel:866-234-1692) [![Facebook](https://blog.oxygo.life/hubfs/OxyGo_January2020%20Theme/Images/facebook.png)](https://www.facebook.com/OxyGo.life/) [![Youtube](https://blog.oxygo.life/hubfs/OxyGo_January2020%20Theme/Images/youtube.png)](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDDhnuSdGMW0S39K1Lu_BPA) [![Instagram](https://blog.oxygo.life/hubfs/OxyGo_January2020%20Theme/Images/instagram.png)](https://www.instagram.com/oxygopoc/) ![Keep Going](https://blog.oxygo.life/hubfs/OxyGo_January2020%20Theme/Images/keep-going.png) © 2022 OxyGo HQ Florida, LLC.
