Frequently asked questions

How much does a hyperbaric chamber cost?

Hyperbaric chamber prices in 2026 range from about $5,000 for an entry-level soft-shell home model to over $100,000 for a clinical-grade hard-shell monoplace unit. Soft-shell home chambers (1.3–1.5 ATA) typically cost $5,000–$18,000. Hard-shell clinic and studio chambers (1.5–2.0 ATA) range from $30,000 to $100,000+.

How much does a portable hyperbaric chamber cost?

Portable (soft-shell inflatable) hyperbaric chambers for home wellness use typically cost $5,000–$18,000. Entry-level models rated at 1.3 ATA start around $5,000–$8,000. Mid-range soft-shell chambers (1.3–1.4 ATA, larger interior) run $8,000–$14,000. Premium portable models with 1.5 ATA and a hard-floor base reach $14,000–$18,000+. An oxygen concentrator ($500–$2,000) is sold separately. Power requirement: standard 110V / 15A household outlet. Setup: 30–60 minutes, no installation needed.

How much does a hard-shell hyperbaric chamber cost?

Hard-shell (rigid) hyperbaric chambers for clinics and studios typically range from $30,000 to $100,000+, depending on size, pressure rating (up to 2.0 ATA), and monoplace vs. multiplace configuration. Commercial installation adds $2,000–$4,000 for white-glove delivery, plus additional costs for electrical work and AHJ compliance review.

What is included in the price of a Metisine hyperbaric chamber?

Metisine's soft-shell chambers ship with the inflatable chamber, compressor/pump, pressure hose, and oxygen inlet fittings. Hard-shell chambers include on-site assembly and a hands-on operator training walkthrough — not freight drop-off only. An oxygen concentrator is sold separately for soft-shell models; Metisine specifies compatible concentrator models for each chamber.

What are the ongoing costs of owning a home hyperbaric chamber?

Soft-shell chambers have low ongoing costs: electricity to run the compressor (typically under $1/hour), periodic zipper lubrication, and eventual seal or fitting replacement. The largest recurring expense is the oxygen concentrator's filter maintenance. Hard-shell chambers require periodic professional servicing, which varies by model and usage frequency.

Is financing available for a hyperbaric chamber?

Yes. Metisine Health offers financing options for qualified buyers. Monthly payments vary based on the chamber price, down payment, and term. Contact the Metisine team for current financing terms and to get a personalized quote.

Is it cheaper to rent or buy a hyperbaric chamber?

For regular users (4+ sessions per week), buying typically offers better long-term value than renting a session at a wellness center ($75–$200/session). Metisine offers a rental program for the Horizon soft-shell model, and rental payments can apply toward a purchase if you decide to buy.
