AED regulations in Cognac

Since 2020 and 2021, all French public-access buildings (ERP) of categories 1 to 4 must be equipped with a DAE, and some category 5 establishments are also covered depending on their activity. In Cognac, every installed device must then be registered on the national GéoDAE database, which already lists 60 across the town. The stakes are measurable: every minute without defibrillation reduces the chances of survival by around 10%. We review your regulatory position and handle the registration on your behalf.

Installing an AED in Cognac

Reception halls, cellars open to the public, sports facilities: in Cognac, a DAE belongs in a busy, visible spot that is accessible at all hours. We install the device with its standardised signage and take care of the GéoDAE registration, which is included. Hire starts at 50 € excl. VAT per month, maintenance included. We also cover Saintes 25 km away, Jonzac 29 km away and Barbezieux-Saint-Hilaire 30 km away.
