HOME ELEVATOR – TWO­ PASSENGERS

The PVE37 has paved the way for the rest of the pneumatic vacuum elevators lineup. The many features of this PVE37 home lift make it a great option if you want something more spacious than the PVE30, but do not have enough room or the need for the wheelchair-accessible PVE52. It measures 37 inches in outside diameter and 32 inches wide on the interior of the cabin. This air-driven residential elevator can safely carry two adults, or 450 lbs, up to as many as five stops or 50 feet in total rise. For an even more comfortable ride, you can opt to have a cabin seat installed for a single rider to sit on while being carried up to another floor.

SPACE-SAVING SOLUTION FOR YOUR HOME

The compact PVE37 residential elevator is the perfect option for an existing residence as it does not take up much space, but still accommodates all of the desired applications of any residential elevator. Simply resting on the existing ground floor, this space-saving home elevator can easily be installed in retro-fit or new construction projects. Whether it is used for passengers, suitcases, pets, household items, or anything else, the PVE37 lift serves a number of functions without the consuming footprint and significant construction costs required of a traditional home elevator.

PANORAMIC DESIGN

With only one door opening available per level, the PVE37 offers in-line (same side) or 180° (opposite side) door openings with one door at each elevator landing. Standing outside of the round elevator and looking at the door, the door opens from left to right (top right hinged). The door width opening is 20 ½ inches which will accommodate a passenger with a walker. In addition, the PVE37 is the only Air-Driven Home Elevator that offers 90° Degree Door Configurations giving the homeowner more options for their residential elevator. Keep in mind, for 90° Degree Door Configurations on the PVE37 model, all upper floor doors must be same side 90° degree configuration.

ABSOLUTE SAFETY

The PVE37 is nothing short of a technological marvel! This home elevator operates with five individual turbines, but these powerful turbines only use 5 kilowatts of electricity, making the PVE37 an environmentally friendly home elevator. It runs off of a 30 amp/220 volt power supply, which is the same as most washer and dryers. If the power goes out in your home, you will not get stuck in the elevator.
The safety system is designed to automatically switch to a slow descent when the power goes out, and mechanical brakes engage if the elevator ever begins to free fall.

MINIMAL MAINTENANCE

Another great benefit of this home elevator is that there is very minimal maintenance required. The only scheduled maintenance per the ASME A17.7 certification is every five years or approximately 15,000 lifts on average. This is when the main seal needs to be replaced. There is a significant cost savings over time if you are to compare this to the regular service required for a traditional residential elevator!
As you look more into it, you will no doubt find that the PVE37 offers everything you need in a residential elevator.

ACCESSIBILITY, MOBILITY AND STYLE

PVE37 elevator installation is simpler than it would be with a traditional shaft-style elevator, and this model also doesn’t need as much space in which to operate. Because it is powered by air pressure, a pneumatic or vacuum elevator doesn’t require a machine room, pit or hoist way.
Like all elevator systems, the PVE37 requires regular maintenance — but it’s only after 15,000 rides, and the maintenance needed is simply to replace the main seal.
