Ionmax is proud to be a registered provider of Assistive Technology under the NDIS, offering innovative solutions designed to enhance and improve daily living for individuals living with disabilities.

Assistive Technology encompasses a range of devices, equipment, and systems that are specifically designed to assist people with disabilities or limitations in performing tasks, improving mobility, communication, and overall quality of life.

🛈 The NDIS defines Assistive technology as equipment or devices that help you do things you can’t do because of your disability, or devices that help you do a task more easily or safely.

To be funded under the NDIS, any Assistive Technology must also be considered reasonable and necessary, meaning it must directly relate to your disability, support your individual goals, and represent value for money within your plan.

FAQs

Are air purifiers covered by the NDIS?

At Ionmax, we’re committed to supporting the health and wellbeing of individuals living with disability by improving indoor air quality. If you are an NDIS participant or support coordinator, here’s what you need to know about whether air purifiers can be funded through the NDIS.

Are Air Purifiers Covered by the NDIS?

In some cases, yes.

According to the NDIS COVID Addendum 2024–25, participants may use their Core – Consumables budget to purchase a portable air purifier if they have a disability that compromises their breathing (e.g. asthma, low lung capacity) or puts them at higher risk from COVID-19.

NDIS Exclusions – What You Need to Know

As outlined on page 3 of the “Supports that are not NDIS funded supports” document:

“Standard household (including garden) items, appliances, tools and products” are generally not funded by the NDIS.

However, if you believe the item is a disability-related piece of assistive technology, you can email enquiries@ndis.gov.au to request confirmation from an NDIS planner that it is considered a reasonable and necessary support and can be funded through a participant’s plan.

What This Means for You

  • Air purifiers may be eligible for NDIS funding, but it depends on your individual needs and plan goals.
  • NDIS approvals for air purifiers are handled on a case-by-case basis.
  • It's always best to discuss with your Plan Manager or Support Coordinator to determine eligibility.
  • If required, you can also email enquiries@ndis.gov.au for written confirmation.

How Ionmax Can Help

If you need help choosing a product or require supporting documentation for your NDIS funding request, we’re happy to assist.

Contact our support team for assistance.

What documentation is required to have an air purifier or dehumidifier approved by the NDIS?

For devices costing under $1,500, you typically don't need a formal quote. However, providing supporting evidence such as a letter or report from a qualified health professional (e.g., occupational therapist, GP, or respiratory specialist) explaining how the device addresses your specific disability-related needs can strengthen your case.

For more information, you may refer to the NDIS website "Assistive technology explained"

Can I purchase an Ionmax device and then seek reimbursement through the NDIS?

If you are self-managed or plan-managed, you can purchase the device and submit a claim for reimbursement, provided the expense aligns with your NDIS plan and is deemed reasonable and necessary. Ensure you keep all receipts and documentation to support your claim. ​

Are there specific Ionmax models recommended for NDIS participants?

While the NDIS doesn't endorse specific brands or models, it's essential to choose a device that meets your individual needs. Ionmax offers a range of air purifiers and dehumidifiers with various features, and some models are recommended by CHOICE consumer reviews and Sensitive Choice approved by the National Asthma Council.

Consult with your health professional or contact Ionmax for help with selecting a model that aligns with your requirements.​

How do I include an Ionmax air purifier or dehumidifier in my NDIS plan?

Discuss your needs with your NDIS planner or support coordinator. They can guide you on the necessary steps to have the device included in your plan, which may involve assessments or recommendations from health professionals. ​
