How much did the refill equipment cost you? Do you freeze the bottle before
filling?

Depends on hwere and how you get it filled.. Many places charge $3 to $4 a
lb
and many flat rate a 10# bottle (ie 30 or 40 dollars to refill your bottle).
I
buy 65# bottles from Nellcor, Puritan Bennett(The manufacturer) and I now
have
a pump and refill my own. I also only fill what I used. I get usually 5 peak
1/4 mile runs and then it will drop off. I quit at 5 and refill from there,
usually 5 - 6 # and buying the big bottle It ends up costing me about $2 a
pound or $10 a bottle. Not including the equipment costs. I also refill
bottles for the locals at $3/lb helps cover costs. NOS tells me to fill what
you use, you donot have to empty tamk each time, hust replace what was used.
A
lot cheaper that way.
Hope this helps
Bill
