FAQs (10)
The EVAC+CHAIR Emergency Evacuation Chair enables evacuation of less mobile persons in emergency situations down a flight of stairs. This can be achieved with only a single operator.
The chair protects the person in the chair with safety buckles, an optional forehead restraint, and a sling-style seat that ensures the user is sat back in the chair and cannot be tipped forward. The Emergency Evacuation Chair's wheels are supported by specially designed friction belts which ensure the chair does not slip or accelerate too rapidly while descending a flight of stairs. The distribution of the chair's weight and load ensures that the descent is smooth and comfortable for both the user and the operator.

Q. How do I get the person from their desk to the stairs?
A.
In the event of an emergency / evacuation the Evac+Chair should be taken by a trained member of staff to the location of the intended user of the Evac+Chair. This person can either self-transfer to the Evac+Chair or be assisted as required. The Evac+Chair can then be moved along the corridor / floor to the stairway for downwards evacuation. Having a Comfy Seat fitted to your Evac+Chair aids the transfer into the chair. If assistance with transferring onto the Evac+Chair is required a second member of staff will need to assist.
Q. Are Evac+Chairs required?
A.
Yes, there is a legal obligation to ensure that all employees and the general public are able to safely evacuate your building in the event of a fire. Evac+Chair is one way to meet this obligation.
Q. Who provides service for my Evac+Chair?
A.
Safelincs can carry out your service, which will ensure that you are maintaining your Evac+Chair in accordance with the Class 1 Medical Device guidelines. Your chair should be serviced and maintained annually to ensure that it operates safely. A monthly in-house check should also be carried out.
Q. Where should I store my Evac+Chair?
A.
The Evac+Chair needs to be in plain sight of all building occupants. The Evac+Chair is supplied with 2 wall mounting hooks to enable the chair to be located in the most appropriate area. Additionally, the bright yellow branded cover that is supplied with the Evac+Chair should ensure that once in position, the chair remains in focus.
Q. How can I stop the chair if I’ve already started going down stairs?
A.
Show All By pushing down on the handles and stopping your own downward progress will stop the descent of the Evac+Chair. Training is vital to ensure that you know how to use the Evac+Chair safely and with confidence in the event of a fire.

Product appeared good but not suitable for the purpose When selling this item it may be worth asking people for the width of their stair. This item was required for a football stadium and the width of the stairs are not standard size, however there is no indication that this would not be suitable for our use. The service was good and you did kindly arrange for a refund.
