REMOUNT & RETROFIT PROGRAM
EXTENDING SERVICE LIFE & PROVIDING TOP PERFORMANCE

Demers Ambulances and its Saskatoon Division ARVI, 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.

What involves a remount?

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
