Reliable AED Batteries & Pads: Your Complete Maintenance Kit

Keeping your AED fully functional isn’t just about owning it; it’s about ensuring it works when seconds count. That’s why our AED Maintenance Kit bundle puts together essential consumables, batteries, adult and paediatric pads, and compliant signage so you never have to worry. Everything is available through Defib Supplies, the UK’s trusted source for rescue-ready equipment.

Why You Should Invest in an AED Maintenance Kit

Prevent Device Failures in Critical Moments

Battery life and pad integrity aren’t just specs; they’re lifelines. Even unused AEDs can degrade over time. Here are lifespan expectations based on trusted sources:

  • Batteries: Typically 2–5 years, depending on model
  • Pads: About 18–30 months, due to drying gel

Our kit ensures your device is always ready and supports compliance with CQC, PUWER, and MHRA maintenance expectations. Read more in our Defibrillator Maintenance Guide.

Warranty‑Safe and Traceable

All parts are sourced through Defib Supplies, so you’re assured of OEM standards, consistent compatibility, and traceable purchase history critical for inspections and insurance compliance.

What’s Included and Why It Matters

Each component aligns with UK healthcare regulations and manufacturer specifications, supporting responsibilities under CQC, PUWER, and ISO 13485. See how this aligns with our full “AED Battery and Pad Replacement: When, How and Costs Guide“.

Using Your AED Maintenance Kit: Step‑by‑Step

  1. Select the correct Batteries & Pads Bundle for your AED model.
  2. During a scheduled check, remove expired parts and install fresh components to confirm the green “ready” status.
  3. Log the change using your own maintenance records.
  4. Attach signage from our Cabinets & Signage collection to ensure visibility.
  5. Refer to our Defibrillator Maintenance Guide for the full audit checklist and procedures.

By following these steps, your staff gains confidence knowing the device is ready, and so do your stakeholders.

Who Should Use This Kit?

  • Schools & Childcare Centres: Paediatric pads are essential for young users.
  • Offices & Retail Spaces protect business continuity
  • Community Hubs & Sports Clubs ensure public-facing readiness
  • Healthcare & Care‑Home Sites align with CQC Audit Protocols

By centralising consumables and reminders, you tangibly boost rescuer confidence and operational readiness.
