Before you Buy (12 Helpful hints for the consumer)

#1) An AC (plug in the wall) unit is the most dependable unit available -even though we offer both AC and DC stairlifts and DC Battery sounds like a great idea ... the truth of the matter is - the batteries fail every 18-24 months without notice. If someone tells you the batteries last three years ... ask them why the batteries only carry a six month warranty. You can no longer ship batteries by air and must go by ground. These are odd ball batteries that you can't go down to Wal-Mart and pick up. You could easily be without your stairlift for a week or more while waiting on batteries and/or an installer. If you are really concerned about long term power outages due to storms and have them frequently - you might think about a small generator. The only time you should consider a battery operated system is if you reside in an area of the country that has routine "brown outs" (i.e.California&New York) or if you are using it to seek refuge from tornadoes. (Acorn, Brooks, Meditek only offer battery operated systems). Please note - there is NO SUCH THING as a "battery back-up"! You either get an AC system or a DC system. No unit does both! The least amount of downtime is with a straight electric system.

#2) If you choose to buy a battery operated stairlift -Mark your calendar every 18 months to remind yourself to automatically replace the batteries. If a company advertises "maintenance free DC power" - it is simply not true. No one's batteries last a lifetime. They are merely implying you do not have to add water to the batteries. Somehow, that's not quite how it sounds when they advertise "maintenance free DC power".

#3) Do NOT buy a stairlift if the seat does not swivel 45° and 90° at the Top AND Bottom -If and when the rider becomes unstable on their feet, they will need a vertical grab bar mounted on the wall at both destinations. No one can reach behind their back and hold on to a grab bar to assist with entry and exit from the chair if the seat does not swivel. After all, Safety is the primary reason for the installation of a stairlift to begin with! (Acorn and Brooks only swivel at Top).

#4) Do NOT buy a stairlift that uses a toggle/joystickor thumb switchvs. a rocker switch to operate -a simple toggle switch or joystick sticks straight up or straight out and can easily get snagged by loose clothing and purses and broken off. A thumb switch can be easily bumped into when exiting the chair causing movement. A large rocker type switch recessed at the end of the armrest is easier (and safer) to use and will be there when you need it. (Acorn, Brooks, Meditek use a thin toggle switch). Imagine what would happen if you or your loved one broke off the switch, had to use the remote to go upstairs, and then laid down the remote and couldn’t find it. You would be virtually trapped until you located your remote. The door bell rings ... and the user makes an attempt to navigate the stairs in a hurry ... and then ... the call to 911. Not a good situation! A switch on the end of a loose wire makes no sense at all!

#5) Do NOT buy a stairlift that contains a circuit board.Circuit boards simply do not hold up when they are constantly being vibrated and jarred. No one knows when a “bad batch” of circuit boards are installed until hundreds of units have shipped out. (We know this from experience – and were left to repair at our expense). Replacing a circuit board can be a $650 service call! (Acorn, Brooks, Meditek use a circuit board.)

#6) Do NOT buy a stairlift with less than a full 5 year bumper-to-bumper warranty -You wouldn't buy a new car with a one year or three year warranty ... why settle for less on a stairlift? If the company doesn't stand behind their product - don't buy it. In reality, a stairlift gets very little use in the average home. A minimum of wear is placed on the motor and working mechanics and a five year warranty should be the minimum you accept. Don't be fooled by a "limited” lifetime warranty on the rail or other component. Make sure ALL of the parts are covered for a minimum of a full unlimited (no questions asked) 5 years. (Only offered and Actually Provided by Jameson Medical/Summit Lifts).

#7) Do NOT buy a stairlift that does not offer a call/send unit -You should get a stairlift that will not only allow you to call for it from the opposing location … but you should also be able to send it to the other end (or simply move it up a few feet). This will allow you to get it out of the way when visitors come or simply free up floor space at the top or bottom. Some distributors charge an additional fee for this feature. ($150 for 20 feet of wire ??) It is provided as a NO CHARGE item at Jameson Medical!

#8) Do NOT buy a stairlift without the wider seat AND angled arms -No one wants to have the control switch digging into there side as they ride up and down. With the angled arms, the wider seat allows for a MUCH more comfortable ride AND allows you to easily place a laundry basket on the seat to transport groceries, laundry, pets, and whatever else! ($200 for a seat modification ??) It is provided as a NO CHARGE item at Jameson Medical!

#9) Do NOT fall for that "soft start" technology baloney -If your tail can tell the difference between an AC motor and a DC motor ramping up to a whopping maximum speed of 22 feet / minute - you better get in touch with Ripley's Believe It or Not! If that is all "they" have to brag about ... it should make you wonder! This was an old advertising slogan used to convert sales away from the old chain drive systems. Over time the chain would loosen and get slack in it. Upon start up, the slack would be taken up and provide a little jolt to the rider. NO ONE makes a chain drive system anymore.

#10) Do NOT buy a stairlift that is made with a plastic molded seat. A plastic molded seat is the international sign of "cheaply made". Plastic has never lasted for long and easily collects dirt and oils in the ripples of the textured outer surface. Metal is made to last and a quality powder coated paint will prevent any potential for rust. A smooth finish is EASY to clean!

#11) Do NOT buy a stairlift with a cloth seat. They might look nice ... but do they hold up? A stairlift user will generally scoot to the front of the seat before exiting. Scoot along the fabric seat and the little fur balls start to grow! A heavy duty naughahyde will allow the user to scoot to the front of the seat much easier while maintaining its original appearance.

#12) Do NOT fall for that stripped down "look alike" brand. (It arrives in a Summit Box). There is ONLY ONE manufacturer in the USA that makes a stairlift you can easily self install. Summit. NO ONE beats our PRICE or SERVICE ... or HONESTY!

Features of the Summit Stairlift

Chassis & Drive Train 1. No oil / vent plug in gear – the gearbox is sealed and is filled with grease instead of traditional gear oil. This means no chance of leaking or spillage. The gear is one of the largest in the stairway lift market today. The aluminum casting used in its design allows for lighter weight to go with its maximum performance. 2. Drive system – a belt is used between the motor and gear instead of a direct connection as manufacturers were unable to guarantee the elimination of key noise between a coupled drive system. It also simplifies serviceability. 3. Motor – Through the design of a dual capacitor system, the instant reversing motor (1/3 hp, 110vac) uses only 3 wires and runs at 6 amps at full load. This allows installation in the home without need for a dedicated outlet. 4. Aircraft cable – using 3/16” dia. Cable instead of traditional 1/8” dia. Cable allows for a breaking strength of 4200 lbs. vs. 2000 lbs. The cable wraps on an aluminum cast drum, grooved for each wrap. This eliminates noise and problems caused by stack winding issues. The cable system is direct drive – meaning there are no pulleys and the cable does not move.

Customer Features 1. Seat – the seat is wide for larger passengers and has the following features: Optional colors – 3 in vinyl and 3 in leather A large, easy to use paddle switch on the armrest

Angled arm rests for added comfort and allows for transport of a laundry basket to transport laundry, groceries, pets, etc. A 3-position adjustable height back rest for optimum comfort 180 degree swivel as standard 2. Unit – the chassis has several unique features as well: A magazine rack that can be used for books, newspapers, etc. A 2 position adjustable height footrest for persons of varying height and disabilities Eight rollers instead of the traditional four. This gives a more consistent ride with less movement. It also cuts in half the load on each roller eliminating flat spots and premature roller wear 3. Track – features of the aluminum extruded track include: A completely smooth bottom. This allows the lift to sit firmly on the stair noses and reduces permanent ridges or marks left once the lift is removed. Track splices located immediately next to the roller channels to provide for an optimum ride at each splice – not on the bottom of the track. Conduit channels in the track to reduce installation time and improve the look of the overall installation. This eliminates holes in the wall / stairs.

 Installation & Service 1. Weight – the heaviest component of the lift is 80lbs, allowing for a true one-man installation. 2. Installation – since the track is cut prior to going out to the home, the installation can be accomplished easily in 2.5 - 3 hours. (Anyone telling you it takes less time is deceiving you and should not be trusted). This is done by providing several small, yet important features in the design: Track brackets on the wall side only A trough extruded in the track for use as a conduit for the call control wires Footswitch call controls (can be used as a wall mount if desired). These are mounted to the floor at each end of the track

No stripping or connecting of individual wires. Internal wires – including the power cord – are connected via modular plugs

By placing the hardware needed in the proper location prior to shipping, hardware packages are eliminated.

3. Flexibility – the unit can be cut down in length, track can be swapped between units, or it can be reversed in the field without cutting any wires or using any additional components. 4. Serviceability – the electrical components are easy to reach for testing when service is needed. Harnesses can be unplugged to perform voltage checks. The limit switches are larger and more durable than other lifts to assure long life. 5. Spare parts – a large number of the components are off the shelf items available at OEM stores around the country. This allows for immediate access to parts needed if service is required.

*Summit Lifts designs their lifts to meet the stringent requirements of ASME A17.1, and ASME A18.1 when installed properly. Those wishing to acquire these products need to check with local authorities to assure local code compliance, installation requirements, and to determine if permits are required.

6 Reasons To Choose a Summit Stairlift1. Peace of Mind The Summit stairway lift was designed by a four-man team to make sure nothing was missed. Footrest safety sensors stop the lift in either direction should it strike anything on the stairs. The seat is equipped with a seat belt and a safety switch that prevents the unit from running unless the seat is in its proper position. The aircraft cable has mechanical and electrical safeties to stop the lift in place and shut down the power if the cable is not at its proper tension. Limit switches shut the unit off in the same place at the top and bottom of the stairs automatically. This is our way of offering you and your family members peace of mind regarding your safety. 2. Comfort The Summit stairway lift has a wide, thick, padded seat available in vinyl or rich, leather upholstery that folds up when not in use. The large rocker switch on the arm of your choice and a 180-degree swivel seat make using the lift simple. The fold-up footrest adjusts to two different levels to suit your needs, and the backrest has three different positions to make sure you are as comfortable as when you are sitting in your favorite chair. Every facet of the lift was designed to enable you to relax and enjoy using your Summit stairway lift.

3. Reliability Each part of the Summit stairway lift has been designed to make sure you can depend on your lift when you need it most. Little things have been added such as a power indicator light on the track assuring you that unit is ready to use. The aircraft cable in the drive system is rated 4,200 lbs. breaking strength. The motor and gear have been tested in excess of 30,000 cycles – 16 years of use – and neither showed excessive wear. The design is similar to an elevator found in high rise buildings.

4. Flexibility The Summit stairway lift can be placed on either side of a staircase, and the unit control can be placed in either arm. By adding or cutting the track, you can modify the length of the unit should you ever need to relocate. Standard call controls are mounted on the floor at each end of the staircase and can be foot operated or can be placed on the wall and operated by hand. Either location allows you to call the lift to you regardless of where the lift is on the track. This flexibility enhances the resale of the lift – and yes, the warranty is transferable should you decide to resell your lift!

5. Maintenance As strange as this may sound for a mechanical device, there minimal maintenance for the Summit stairway lift. Unlike most lifts that have gearboxes with vent plugs, the gearbox on the Summit Lift is completely sealed, preventing the possibility of oil leaking onto your carpet. Virtually all other lifts also use gear racks and pinion gears (rack and pinion) to drive the lift. These must be lubricated with dust-collecting grease to prevent damage from occurring.

6. Security Why use eight rollers when four will work? Why make the parts ourselves when purchasing them overseas is cheaper? Why use an aircraft cable strong enough to tow a car?

Why test each lift before it is shipped? Why use UL and CSA listed components on all electrical components? Why hand-assemble each piece? Why used standard off-the-shelf parts allowing you to service the lift yourself once the warranty is up?

Because Summit Lifts refuses to have the quality of their lift surpassed by anyone.

That’s why.
