Can an Evac+Chair® evacuation chair go upstairs?

Evac+Chair® offers various evacuation chairs that are suitable for ascending stairs. We offer both manually operated and powered evacuation chairs. The Evac+Chairs® suitable for ascending are:

Evac+Power 800

The Evac+Power 800 offers one of the most complete evacuation experiences possible. As a motorized evacuation chair the Evac+Power 800 offers a smooth controlled movement for both ascending and descending stairs.

A point of consideration is who will be using the evacuation chair when ascending. The Evac+Chair® is ergonomically designed to minimize physical impact on the operator, it is worth thinking what you are asking your team and individuals to undertake in the event of an evacuation.
