Spread the cost of a tympanometer from £2,000 to £10,000 with flexible finance options. HP, lease, or refinance
Yes, tympanometers 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 £2,000 to £10,000, 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.

Equipment used wholly for the business qualifies for the Annual Investment Allowance (AIA), letting you deduct the qualifying cost of a tympanometer from taxable profits in the year of purchase, up to the current AIA limit set by HMRC (check the current threshold with your accountant, as it can change). 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.
Tympanometers are bought by independent hearing care practices and multi-site providers as a companion to an audiometer, used to check middle ear function as part of a fuller hearing assessment rather than as a standalone service. Finance is common because a tympanometer is usually financed together with an audiometer and test booth as one hearing assessment package, particularly when a provider is expanding beyond simple screening into fuller diagnostic testing. Replacement tends to follow the addition of extra modules, such as OAE or ABR testing, to an existing modular system rather than a base unit failing, since these systems are designed to be expanded over time.
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.
