Beeping
Many stairlifts designs are built with a beeping alert for when batteries aren’t being charged or need to be replaced soon. At any time, your stairlift may lose power, and the batteries can go uncharged for days. If you notice a constant beep, unplug your lift and plug it back in. If beeping continues, give us a call as soon as possible.
Sudden Stops When Going Up or Down
