What Is a Mechanical Overhaul (MOH)?
A MOH is a complete teardown, inspection, and rebuild of your hyperbaric chamber after 10 years of use. It’s required by PVHO-2 standards and is essential to extending the chamber’s life for another 10-year cycle.
Baro-Serv’s MOH includes detailed chamber disassembly, sandblasting, recoating, valve and fitting replacements, certification testing, and regulatory compliance documentation.
What Happens If You Wait Too Long?
Delaying MOH puts your chamber—and your entire facility—at risk of noncompliance. You may be forced to suspend treatments, cancel patient sessions, or face regulatory action.
Lead times for overhaul kits, oxygen-compatible parts, and technician availability can extend 4–8 weeks depending on the season and location. Planning early means uninterrupted operations and peace of mind.
