EWOT at Home: How to Perform Exercise With Oxygen Therapy at Home
Last Updated: 2/12/2026
Reading Time: 14 minutes
Performing exercise with oxygen therapy at home is far simpler than most people expect.
A properly engineered home EWOT system takes less than 15 minutes to assemble the first time. After that, using it is straightforward:
Turn it on.
Let the reservoir fill.
Exercise for 15 minutes while breathing normally.
There is no professional installation required. No permanent modification to your home. No technical setup beyond connecting tubing and plugging into a wall outlet.
What Equipment Is Required for EWOT at Home?
A complete EWOT at home setup includes:
- A 5 LPM or 10 LPM oxygen concentrator
- A large oxygen reservoir bag
- A secure oxygen mask for home use
- A stationary cardio device
When assembled correctly, this setup allows you to breathe 93% oxygen with each breath during exercise.
That’s the defining feature of exercise with oxygen therapy at home.
Oxygen alone is not EWOT. Exercise alone is not EWOT. It’s oxygen delivered during exertion that creates the physiologic stimulus.
Concentrator (5 or 10 LPM) + 1,000L reservoir + mask + tubing/connectors + support.

How to Set Up an EWOT System at Home
Here is exactly what setup involves:
- Place the concentrator near your bike or treadmill
- Plug it into a standard wall outlet
- Connect push tubing from the concentrator to the reservoir bag
- Attach the hose from the bag to the mask
- Turn the unit on and allow the bag to fully inflate
- Fit the mask for a proper seal
That’s it.
The first setup takes under 15 minutes. After that, your daily session is simply a matter of turning it on and exercising.
Why a Home EWOT System Changes the Equation
The true advantage of EWOT at home is not novelty. It is frequency.
Frequency drives benefits.
Consistent 15-minute sessions support:
- Mitochondrial energy production
- Improved circulation efficiency
- Endurance capacity
- Recovery between training sessions
- Longevity-focused wellness
Scott Slaughter: “I use it 3 to 4 times a week with my elliptical and have been very pleased with the results.”
Bonnie Holding: “The set up was quick and it has been a game changer.”
One session won’t create change. Repeated exposure will.

Oxygen Concentrator vs Oxygen Tank for Home Use
For ongoing exercise with oxygen therapy at home, concentrators are the practical solution.
They:
- Plug into a standard outlet
- Produce approximately 93% oxygen continuously
- Do not require refills
- Support repeated weekly sessions
Tanks introduce refill logistics and downtime. For structured 15-minute sessions multiple times per week, concentrators eliminate friction.
5 LPM vs 10 LPM: Which Home EWOT System Is the Better Choice?
There is no difference in the actual EWOT experience between 5 LPM and 10 LPM systems.
Both deliver approximately 93% oxygen. Both use the same reservoir. Both create the same physiologic effect during your session.
The difference is in how quickly the reservoir fills — and what that means long term.
5 LPM System
- Takes approximately 3 hours to fully fill the reservoir
- Works well for single users who plan sessions in advance
- Lower initial cost
If you don’t mind planning your sessions ahead of time, 5 LPM can be sufficient.
10 LPM System
The 10 LPM system fills the reservoir in approximately 1.5 hours — half the time.
That creates three meaningful advantages:
1) Greater Flexibility
You can use the system with less pre-planning. If you decide to exercise the same day, you’re not waiting three hours.
2) Better for Multiple Users
Because the reservoir refills faster and depletes less per session, a second person can often perform a session 30–45 minutes later while the machine continues running.
For households with more than one user, this is significant.
3) Increased Durability Over Time
Each session on a 5 LPM unit requires roughly three hours of runtime to refill. Each session on a 10 LPM unit requires about 1.5 hours of runtime.
Over years of use, that means fewer cumulative runtime hours, less mechanical wear, and longer expected lifespan.
If budget allows, the 10 LPM system is the better long-term choice for most home users.
In fact, we sell approximately five times more 10 LPM systems than 5 LPM systems — not because the experience is different, but because flexibility, multi-user convenience, and long-term durability matter.

How Long Should an EWOT Session Be?
A standard session is 15 minutes.
That duration elevates oxygen demand, delivers concentrated oxygen during exertion, and stimulates meaningful physiologic adaptation.
Longer sessions are not required. Consistency is what produces change.
Does Exercise With Oxygen Therapy at Home Require Professional Installation?
No.
A properly engineered home EWOT system connects using simple tubing and a standard electrical outlet. The first setup takes under 15 minutes, and daily use is straightforward.
Is EWOT at Home Safe?
When performed with proper equipment and common-sense precautions, EWOT is generally well tolerated.

How Does EWOT Compare to Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

The key distinction is oxygen delivery during active exertion versus passive exposure. Many individuals prefer EWOT at home because it allows structured, repeatable sessions without scheduling barriers.
Frequently Asked Questions About EWOT at Home
What oxygen concentration is delivered during EWOT at home?
Approximately 93% oxygen when using a concentrator-based system.
How long is a typical EWOT session at home?
15 minutes.
Is 5 LPM or 10 LPM better?
Both provide the same EWOT experience. The 10 LPM system fills the reservoir twice as fast, offers greater flexibility, supports multiple users more easily, and reduces long-term runtime wear.
Can more than one person use the same EWOT system at home?
Yes. The 10 LPM system makes multi-user scheduling significantly easier because the reservoir refills faster and typically supports back-to-back sessions with less waiting.
