How to choose a good service for breathalyzer calibration?
If you own a breathalyzer one day you will have to choose where the device should be calibrated. How to make that choice?
Use the Internet
Professional companies that provide breathalyzers calibrataion have their own websites. You can find there all the information you need. Just start by browsing through the websites. At the same time you can look at the list of calibrated models (if any). Apart from visiting the sites pages, look on the Internet for an opinion of the company. It is worth checking comments on company's website as well as look at the specialized forums.
The equipment is important
Try to find out what equipment the laboratory uses. It is important for it to be a professional and reliable equipment. We can ask the service person - if he or she won't be able to give us an answer, it may indicate dishonesty or lack of professionalism. In such cases, it's better to approach another company.
Other services
It's good if the company provides more services other than just calibration. If we are satisfied with the service, we can return to the company when the breathalyzer is damaged or some part will need to be replaced. Moreover, certain shops selling breathalyzers provide calibartion service – check if they offer to calibrate equipment purchased in the competition (then you are not dependent on a single company, whose services may satisfy you). Professional service has a full range of spare parts and also deals with warranty and post-warranty repair.
The pocess' speed
Time is important for everyone - nowadays we live quickly and we appreciate if we don't have to wait long for something. The speed of the service is a big plus and it's certainly one of the conditions that we take into consideration when choosing a company. Order time may be different - from dealing "on the spot", without waiting in the service; to a few or several days if the breathalyzer is sent to the service in another city.
The ways of delivery
A good company cares about the convenience of its customers, and therefore offers them various forms of delivery to the service. You can either deliver your breathalyzer personally or send it by mail or courier to the address indicated on the website. This also works the way back - when the breathalyzer is calibrated, the customer can collect it in person, or service sends it straight to the customer's house. Some companies cover the cost of shipping - take advantage of that opportunity.
Calibration certificate
Calibration certificate is a document certifying that the breathalyzer passed calibration and is fully operational and ready for use. This is an important document that gives you the confidence that your device will work properly.
