Spread the cost of defibrillator and resuscitation equipment from £1,200 to £15,000 with flexible finance options. HP, lease, or refinance
Yes, defibrillators are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £1,200 to £15,000, and most deals are written over 12–72 months with a deposit of around 10–20%. Decisions typically take 24–48 hours. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

|---|---|---|
| Automated external defibrillator (AED) | £1,200 – £2,500 | AED |
| Manual monitor/defibrillator for ALS use | £8,000 – £15,000 | Manual Defibrillator |

Equipment used wholly for the business qualifies for the Annual Investment Allowance (AIA), letting you deduct the full cost from taxable profits in the year of purchase, up to the current £1,000,000 AIA limit. Hire purchase lets you claim capital allowances as you own the asset from day one. Finance lease and operating lease rentals are treated as a revenue expense and are usually fully deductible against profits, which is why many practices prefer leasing for equipment that needs replacing on a fixed cycle.
Defibrillator finance covers two quite different buyers, dental, aesthetic and community settings needing a basic AED for emergency preparedness, and hospitals, day-surgery units and ambulance services needing a manual monitor/defibrillator for advanced life support. Multi-site dental, optical and aesthetic groups often finance an AED for every site as a single fleet purchase to standardise resuscitation cover across the business, while manual defibrillators are more often bought individually by clinical settings running higher-acuity procedures.
Some specialist lenders consider businesses with imperfect credit histories. You may need a larger deposit or personal guarantee, but options may be available. Fundably may use a soft credit check for matching, which does not affect your credit score. A hard check may happen if you choose to proceed with a lender.
