AED Maintenance / Defibrillator Servicing by the Defibshop!
It is important to maintain AEDs (defibrillators) to make sure they are always in good order to respond should they be needed for a Sudden Cardiac Arrest.
Whilst you should be checking your AEDs on a regular basis, a more thorough professional service and maintenance is recommended on an annual basis.
Having a proper provider undertake this work for you assists with making sure your AEDs are in good order, and from a company / organisation perspective, it minimises the risk that your AED might not respond as expected when needed.
** Our team include professionals such as fully registered and practicing Intensive Care Paramedics who really do use defibrillators and have actually worked successfully on patients in Sudden Cardiac Arrest! **
Our servicing and maintenance offers the following:
- Review of all AEDs.
- Review to see the units are operating to manufacturers standards.
- Review of the defibrillation pads (Replacement if required)
- Review of the battery (Replacement if required)
- Review of the AED housing / alarm.
- A ‘tag’ detailing of the service will be added to the AED for your records and reference.
- A full report will be sent via PDF once complete, detailing all you need to keep on record for your AED.
- Thereafter, you’ll have access to our 24/7 support included for all customers engaging our service and maintenance program.
- Note: If Pads/Batteries are required; they are replaced on-site at an extra charge.

Our servicing and maintenance service is not simply a “check the green indicator and pads expiry” and “its all good.”
We spend the time to test/check/tag all AEDs and once your unit(s) have been serviced, you will receive a thorough report.
This report provides all the information of the service and is useful also at times such as WH&S and equipment auditing
Additionally, we review your AED signage, CPR signage and replace or add where applicable.
Standard signage / stickers are included in the work undertaken.
A brief look at why we recommend professional servicing and maintenance of your AEDs:
- We’ve found AEDs with expired pads – up to three or four years expired!
- Same as above for batteries!
- We’ve found paediatric pads in an AED – with no adult pads available. Paediatric pads cannot be used on an adult patient!
- We’ve found non-branded batteries in AEDs – these may not provide the energy required for when an AED has to give the patient a shock!
- We’ve found defib pads opened accidentally, then wrapped in kitchen plastic wrap! They will simply dry out and not be any use to a patient if needed.
You can see just a few examples above of why it is important for professionals to take a review of your AED equipment.
Our team include professionals who really do, and have used defibrillators! They have sound knowledge of how the AED is to work and will ensure your AED is in Rescue ready mode for any Sudden Cardiac Arrest you may have on-site!
We can tailor a plan to assist you with your AEDs. Whether it is one unit for your sports club, church or office, or 10, 50 or even hundreds for your company, government department, volunteer entity, we can assist you!
