About MOCC

Since Covid 19, oxygen therapy has become common knowledge to the public because of the increased demand of medical oxygen (with purity of at least 90%) which is mainly stored in medical cylinders and also generated by certain medical grade machines also known as oxygen concentrators. Besides, medical devices such as oximeters, Bp meters, spirometers to say but a few have been resounding also in the public domain that they are no longer concepts often used by medical practitioners but also by the public who may freely use them to start monitoring their health conditions to some extent.

Whether a person is apparently enjoying their good health, is an outpatient, or even recovering at home, he/she needs to acquire some key devices, especially as recommended by a medical practitioner for their self monitoring or survival.

From R1,350; it is cost effective to request a combo package rental meaning the rental of both a concentrator and a cylinder for a back up during load shedding. The combo price is R1,650 with one free cylinder refill every first of the month (to be done by latest the third of every month) valued at overR400. Besides, we also offer a Rent-to-Buy with flexible monthly payments for a maximum period of 13 months. It’s preferable to request a quotation as customer’s location is also a factor.

7) Can I rent a cylinder for prevention?

Yes, you can. You simply have to pay the required premium whether or not you utilize the oxygen (R300 for D-size or R400 for F-size) excluding delivery.

Nonetheless, it is recommended that someone should consult with a medical doctor before he/she makes such decision.

8) I am using more and more oxygen and realize that it is costing me a bit too much; what can I do?

You can upgrade to an oxygen machine in case you have rented a cylinder with us or else, you can consider buying one. But we first recommend that you discuss with your medical practitioner.

9) I have purchased /rented a cylinder or an oxygen machine for spare use; how do I know when I need to use it?

Usually, the shortness of breath that you feel may be an indication. You may then consider buying an oximeter to monitor your oxygen level. We sell oximeters for home use and for clinical use (constant monitoring). Nonetheless, we always recommend that you discuss with your medical practitioner before making any decision.

10) I experience shortness of breath, do I necessarily need an oxygen machine or cylinder?

I do not know. Only a medical practitioner may establish whether or not you need oxygen therapy. So, please consult with a medical practitioner before requesting an oxygen machine or cylinder.

11) I do not understand, my cylinder has suddenly lost oxygen, but it was full.

Unfortunately there is no reimbursement for the loss of oxygen for whichever cause including customer’s erroneous maneuver. Nonetheless, the regulator may be assessed in order to ultimately establish that you should pay for another refill.

12) How long does an oxygen cylinder last?

This depends on the cylinder capacity, its weight and also the oxygen flow that you use. For instance, an 8L water capacity aluminum cylinder full of oxygen will be emptied after about 10 hours and half of continuous use at a flow of 2L/MN. But the same cylinder will be emptied after about 21 hours continuous use at a flow of 1L/MN . it will last much longer when oxygen is used sparingly at relatively low flow rates.

13) How often must I refill a rented cylinder?

There is no restriction, You may request cylinder refill as many times as you need, but you will have to pay same amount for every refill.

Remember, it is compulsory to request refill at least once every month to avoid paying by the third of every month the mandatory premium indicated on your RENTCYL form which you must complete.

14) What if my oxygen runs out before month end or the 3rd of next month?

We will arrange collection of the cylinder within days and will refund your deposit as per the Terms and conditions set on the quote.

Yes, you must still pay your premium. Failure to do so will result in the cancellation of the rental service. The vendor will be forced to retrieve the cylinder/oxygen machine. Under such circumstance the customer will also lose their deposit if he/she has rented an oxygen machine. If the customer has rented a cylinder, it is recommended to notify by latest the 25th to avoid paying the premium and losing the deposit.
