Table of Contents
Introduction
Renting oxygen at home should not feel like guesswork.
If a doctor has just told you that a family member needs supplemental oxygen, the first question is almost always the same — how much will it cost in Malaysia? Prices range widely between RM 90 and RM 350 per day depending on flow rate, brand, and delivery area.
This guide breaks down the real 2026 rental prices, what you actually get for the money, and how to avoid paying for capacity you do not need.
How much does an oxygen machine cost per day in Malaysia?
Typical daily rental — 2026 prices
For a standard 5-litre home oxygen concentrator, expect to pay around RM 120–RM 180 per day in 2026. For a 10-litre hospital-grade concentrator, daily rates sit between RM 220–RM 350 per day. Oxihome's published rates are RM 150/day (5L) and RM 250/day (10L).
Daily rental usually makes sense for short post-surgery recovery (3–10 days) or palliative situations. Most providers, including us, include the humidifier bottle, cannula and a free swap if the unit fails.
What is included in the daily rate?
- The oxygen concentrator itself (cleaned and tested)
- One nasal cannula and humidifier bottle
- Free delivery within the Klang Valley
- WhatsApp technical support 24/7
- Free unit swap if the machine has any issue
Monthly and long-term rental pricing
Cheaper per day when you commit longer
Monthly rates drop sharply once you commit to 30 days or more. A 5L unit on a monthly contract is roughly RM 2,200–RM 3,000 per month, which works out to RM 70–RM 100/day. A 10L on monthly contract runs RM 3,800–RM 5,500 per month.
For chronic conditions like COPD, pulmonary fibrosis, or long-term elderly care, monthly is almost always the right choice. Some providers offer 3-month and 6-month bundles with further 10–15% discount.
Rent-to-own and outright purchase
A brand-new home 5L concentrator costs around RM 4,500–RM 7,500 outright, while a 10L unit can hit RM 12,000–RM 18,000. If the patient needs oxygen for more than 6 months, buying — or a rent-to-own plan — often makes more financial sense.
5L vs 10L — which oxygen flow rate do you actually need?
5L covers most home cases
A 5-litre concentrator delivers up to 5 LPM at 90–95% purity. Suitable for the majority of home users: stable COPD, post-surgery recovery, oxygen for sleep, and most elderly home-care scenarios.
10L is only needed for severe cases
A 10L unit is reserved for patients with severe respiratory failure, those weaning off hospital ventilation, or pulmonary fibrosis with high flow requirements. Renting a 10L "just in case" is usually unnecessary.
Not sure? Get the doctor's prescribed flow rate (in LPM) before contacting any supplier. We can also help — message us on WhatsApp with the prescription.
Hidden costs to watch out for
Delivery fees outside the Klang Valley
Many suppliers advertise low headline prices but charge RM 80–RM 200 for delivery outside Kuala Lumpur or Petaling Jaya. Always ask for the all-in price.
Deposit and damage charges
A refundable deposit of RM 500–RM 1,500 is standard. Read the rental agreement carefully.
Electricity cost
A 5L concentrator uses around 350W; a 10L uses around 600W. Running 24 hours, that adds roughly RM 30–RM 50 per month.
5 ways to save on oxygen machine rental
- Match the flow rate to the prescription. Do not over-spec.
- Commit monthly if usage will exceed 10 days.
- Compare 2–3 suppliers.
- Ask about a free swap policy.
- Bundle accessories into the rental.
