Advanced Response Vehicles Inc understands that the cost of a brand-new unit might be out of the reach of those with limited budgetary means or requirements that do not require a "brand new" ambulance. To these customers, Demers Ambulances offers the Remount / Retrofit Program, a high-quality lower-priced alternative.
When a unit chassis has reached the end of its service life, the conversion module may be removed, refurbished and remounted onto a current model-year chassis. The result is a vehicle commonly referred to as a "remount" ambulance. It offers top-end performance and reliability. A "remount" unit meets the same standards and specifications as a brand new unit while costing a fraction of the price.
A modular ambulance "remount" involves a number of steps. Each step is designed to restore the existing vehicle to its original operating condition. All this is done while keeping product safety a top priority. Based on minimum requirements, which can be upgraded, the process includes the following operations:
- Overall inspection of the existing ambulance module;
- Evaluation of its structural integrity;
- Checklist of work to be completed on unit;
- Removal of the module's exterior and exterior components;
- Dismount of module from its original chassis;
- Repainting of the module and exterior doors;
- Replacement and repair of any worn or damaged parts;
- Inspection, repair or adjustment of the anchor points to fit the new chassis;
- Inspection and repair and/or upgrade of worn or damaged module;
- Electrical components;
- Driver cabin electrical components;
- Doors' exterior components;
- Replacement and upgrade exterior lighting and emergency lights;
- Replacement of;
- Each safety belt assembly;
- Safety net and head seat;
- Existing polycarbonate cabinet windows as indicated;
- Existing floor covering as indicated;
- Existing vinyl and upholstery as indicated;
- Application of lettering and graphics to match existing fleet;
- Final overall inspection and road test.
ARVI can remount any existing Type I and Type III ambulance, and ensure a significant cost reduction when compared to a brand new unit while still providing its customers unequalled OEM-quality and workmanship.
