AED regulations in fillinges

In Haute-Savoie as elsewhere, French public-access buildings (ERP) of categories 1 to 4 have been required to be equipped with a DAE since 2020-2021, along with certain category 5 establishments depending on their activity. In Fillinges, our technicians mostly meet category 5 organisations unsure whether the obligation applies to them: we carry out a regulatory review on site. Registration on GéoDAE, the French national database, remains mandatory for every device; six are currently listed in the commune, between Ville-la-Grand (6 km) and La Roche-sur-Foron (9 km).

Installing an AED in fillinges

Installing a DAE in Fillinges means planning for winter: our fitters recommend a heated outdoor cabinet, an unobstructed location and signage visible from the road. The service, delivered from route des Bègues, includes fitting, standardised signage and mandatory registration on GéoDAE. For organisations that prefer to spread the cost, hire from 50 € excl. VAT per month, maintenance included, covers both the device and its upkeep, as far as Bonneville (11 km).

Maintenance and training in fillinges

The pre-Alpine climate puts outdoor DAE units to the test: in winter, our technicians find heated cabinets in Fillinges that have failed, leaving batteries and electrode pads exposed to the cold. Our preventive maintenance checks these points, replaces consumables before they expire and documents every visit. We also train municipal teams, businesses and community groups in life-saving skills, from Fillinges to La Roche-sur-Foron (9 km).
