The estimated cost on a PLV 100 is about 10000 dollars. It is the quitest
portable vent on the market today due to the ball screw technology used in
it. It has been manufactored by LIFECARE international since 1984.
Respironics purchased LIFECARE in October. You can contact your local office
at (800) 669-9234. There are currently 18 offices across the country
