Choose the
Right AED for
Your Workplace
Compare AED models, features, and support to make a confident and informed decision.
Before Comparing AED Models, Know What Matters
AEDs may look similar, but the right choice depends on cost, usability, environment, and support after purchase.
Price, pads, battery, warranty, and support.
Important for large sites or mobile teams.
Some AEDs guide compression quality.
Useful for diverse workplaces.
Dust and water resistance may matter.
Setup, service, training, and reminders.
Next: match these factors to your workplace type.
Match the AED to Your Workplace Type
Once you know what to compare, the next step is to identify which factors matter most for your environment.
Factory & Industrial Workplace
Prioritise durability, CPR guidance, training readiness, clear access, and reliable support.
Office / Condo / Public Area
Prioritise simple access, visibility, signage, and basic familiarisation.
School / Childcare
Prioritise child use, language support, simple operation, and trained staff.
Mobile / Event Team
Prioritise weight, carrying setup, portability, and quick access.
Multi-site Organisation
Prioritise standardisation, maintenance planning, consumables, and training rollout.
How to Read the AED Comparison
Before looking at AED models, use these four points to understand what the comparison really means.
Price is not total cost
Consider pads, batteries, warranty, training, and support after purchase.
CPR guidance has levels
Some AEDs guide basic steps. Others help users improve compression quality.
Weight depends on site size
If the AED must be carried across a large site, weight becomes more important.
Support affects readiness
Setup, familiarisation, servicing, and consumables help keep the AED ready.
Compare AED Models by Practical Buying Factors
After identifying your priorities, compare the AED models based on cost, CPR guidance, consumables, warranty, support, and best-fit use case.
