Trade in your AED

Your AED is one of the most important safety tools in your facility. In a cardiac emergency, it could help save a life.

Stay compliant. Stay prepared.

Is It Time to Trade In Your AED?

AEDs are built to last — but not forever. If your device is 8–10 years old, has discontinued pads or batteries, or no longer meets current safety standards, it may be time to upgrade.

Manufacturers eventually phase out parts and support for older models, which can leave you unprepared in an emergency. Newer AEDs offer improved reliability, clearer guidance, and longer-lasting components to ensure you’re ready when it matters most.

SimplyAED’s trade-in program makes upgrading easy. If you’re unsure about your device, our team can help you determine whether it’s time for a replacement.

Trade Up

The serial number for most AEDs can be found on the back of the unit (sometimes under the pads).

To save a life, you want your device to be in the best condition. Older AEDs can have extremely high maintenance costs, so instead of paying for new accessories the next time they expire, consider putting that money towards a new AED with the latest technology. Accessories for newer models typically last longer than accessories for older AEDs as well.

Units purchased before 31 October 2020 are covered under warranty through October 2025 (EXPRESS) or October 2028 (CR Plus). Read our guide to identify if you have a discontinued LIFEPAK unit, and when it will be past its warranty.

Even if the device has never been used, internal components can break down over time just like with any electronic device.
