Oxygen Canister

Oxygen Canister

Disasters and emergencies can happen at any time. While having supplies like food and water are some of the most important, you can't forget about your heating needs. If you lose heat and can't get it back, this is as bad as being hungry or thirsty because of the effects on your body. Prepare your heating needs today so you have them just in case.

Blankets, Sleeping Bags

The most reliable forms of heat will be your blankets and sleeping bags. Make sure you have enough for everyone in the family. Most of the cheaper mummy bags along with a few blankets will provide heat. Also having multiple layers of clothing especially covering the feet and heat will keep your body heat in.

Portable Propane Heater

If there is a disaster or emergency, your electricity and natural gas could be shut off. Relying on heating through those fuel sources isn't the best of ideas. Get a propane heater that you can use to give heat. You can keep 20 pound propane canisters on hand to provide this heat. Be safe though. You can't run a propane heater inside with the 20 pound canister. You can run the portable versions with the 1 pound canisters if they have oxygen shut off sensors so you don't get carbon monoxide poisoning.

Insulation

If stuck at home during a disaster, make sure the home has proper insulation to help keep the cold out and keep the heat in. This is practical since you will save on heating bills if a disaster never occurs.

Fire

Keeping fire making materials and wood is a good idea. You can always cook with this and have a heat source from it. Indoor stoves are an option but you can use this outside as well. Use a metal fire pit or the bottom half of a metal barrel to keep the fire away from the normally dry, dead grass in the winter to not spread fire.

I am on oxygen using a liquid oxygen portable cannister.?

I want to fly from Phoenix, Az to Portland, Or, what do I need to do to make sure that I have oxygen on the plane, and in Portland?? Is there a company that rents portable oxygen re-generators?? Is there a company in Portland that can refill my oxygen and will the airlines allow me to check my canister? This is not a bottle of oxygen that you see being pulled behind, it is a portable liquid oxygen unit that I carry under my shoulder.

I know this for a fact----
Airlines recently changed the way they do travel patients with oxygen needs.....You HAVE TO CALL THE AIRLINES AND SEE WHAT THEY OFFER. If you are with Lincare oxygen they will meet you at the airport with a tank of oxygen and allow you to use it during a lay over----several other companies will also do this. CALL your oxygen provider and see if they can help you..... they can come up with something for ya.....YOU """HAVE TO MAKE ARRANGEMENTS WITH YOUR OXYGEN COMPANY""""" and do this before you leave to hop on that plane!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have seen many patients get to the airport and get upset cuz they cannot take the tanks on board with them (remember you are 30,000 feet in the air and its VERY compressed air up there. then they have a lay over and are real upset cuz they THOUGHT the airport would have oxygen for them to use while they are there.....THAT IS NOT THEIR RESPONABILITY TO BABYSIT YOU.....
CALL AND MAKE ARRANGEMENTS WITH YOUR OXYGEN COMPANY BEFORE YOU LEAVE, TELL THEM WHEN YOU WILL BE LEAVING AND WHAT TIME YOUR LAY OVERS ARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know this for a fact--I use to work for LIncare and always made travel arrangements for my patients!!!!
Have A SAFE AND FUN TRIP!!!!!!!!!!
