How Much Does It Cost to Run a Stairlift?

With rising energy prices, many wonder about the cost of running a stairlift. Fortunately, stairlifts, including Stannah models, are very energy-efficient. They use about 0.024 kWh per journey—less than most household appliances. On average, a stairlift costs around £1 per month to run, making it a cost-effective mobility solution.

Stairlifts operate on rechargeable batteries, ensuring a smooth ride even during power outages, with enough charge for up to 8 return trips. Maintenance is minimal, with batteries lasting 2-5 years before replacement is needed.
