Oxygen Cylinder Price in Bangladesh 2026 — Complete Buyer’s Guide | Choice Bangla

What does 1 litre of oxygen actually cost in Bangladesh?
This is a question most sellers do not answer — but it is one of the most useful ways to compare running costs.
A standard B-type cylinder holds approximately 2,000 litres of medical oxygen. A refill costs ৳800–1,000 with home delivery in Dhaka. That works out to roughly ৳0.40–0.50 per litre of medical-grade oxygen.
At a flow rate of 2 litres per minute — a common prescription for moderate oxygen therapy — a patient uses 120 litres per hour. A full cylinder at 2,000 litres gives approximately 12 hours of continuous supply. Daily running cost at 12 hours/day: ৳800–1,000 per refill, or roughly ৳65–85 per hour of therapy.
For patients needing oxygen 24 hours a day, this adds up quickly — which is where an oxygen concentrator becomes more cost-effective. We cover that comparison below.
When does a patient actually need an oxygen cylinder?
Most searches for oxygen cylinders happen in a rush. But understanding when supplemental oxygen is genuinely needed helps families make better decisions and avoid unnecessary expense.
Blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) is the key measure. A pulse oximeter reads SpO2 as a percentage. In healthy adults, normal SpO2 is 95–100%. When SpO2 consistently drops below 94%, most doctors recommend supplemental oxygen therapy. Below 90% is considered a medical emergency.
Common conditions requiring home oxygen therapy in Bangladesh:
● COPD — chronic low oxygen saturation, often requires ongoing supplemental oxygen
● Asthma — emergency support during severe attacks
● Pneumonia and chest infections — oxygen support during active illness
● Post-surgery recovery — particularly cardiac and thoracic surgery
● Post-COVID breathing difficulty — prolonged respiratory recovery
● Heart failure — reduces cardiac workload during acute episodes
● Elderly patients — age-related lung function decline with episodic low saturation
Always confirm the prescribed flow rate with your doctor before setting up the cylinder. The right flow rate ensures the patient receives the correct dose — too low is ineffective, too high is unnecessary and wastes the cylinder.
Buying vs renting vs refilling — which makes financial sense?
Buy if the patient needs oxygen therapy for more than 6–8 weeks. The purchase price recovers faster than ongoing rental costs beyond that point.
Rent for post-surgery recovery, short-term respiratory illness, or when the duration of need is uncertain. Choice Bangla rental starts from ৳2,500/week with free delivery and setup. Free refill included during the rental period.
Refill if you already own a cylinder. Choice Bangla home delivery refill costs ৳800–1,000, available 24/7. Call 01308804911 when your pressure gauge drops below 500 PSI — do not wait until the cylinder is empty.
Cylinder vs oxygen concentrator — when does it make sense to switch?
A cylinder needs refilling every 10–24 hours depending on usage. An oxygen concentrator produces oxygen from ambient air continuously — no refilling, ever. For patients needing oxygen more than 12 hours daily, a concentrator is significantly more cost-effective over time despite the higher upfront cost.
Choose a cylinder when:
● Short-term need (days to a few weeks)
● Travel or outside-home use
● Power supply is unreliable (cylinders work without electricity)
● Patient needs a backup supply alongside a concentrator
Choose a concentrator when:
● Patient needs oxygen 12+ hours daily long-term
● COPD or chronic respiratory disease with ongoing therapy
● Cost of repeated refills is becoming unmanageable
Choice Bangla stocks both cylinders and oxygen concentrators. Call 01308804911 and we will help you calculate which option is more cost-effective for your specific situation.
What to check before buying an oxygen cylinder in Bangladesh
Not every cylinder sold in Bangladesh is what it claims to be. Before purchasing from any supplier:
Check the pressure gauge — a full standard cylinder reads close to 2000 PSI. Significantly lower means it has not been properly filled. Ask for a receipt and warranty documentation. Reputable suppliers provide these without hesitation. Test the valve and flow meter before the delivery team leaves — the float in the flow tube should move smoothly and the valve should seal completely when closed. Confirm the oxygen purity — medical-grade oxygen is 99%+. Industrial oxygen is not the same and should never be used for patient care.
At Choice Bangla, every cylinder is pressure-tested and function-checked before delivery. If anything is not right on arrival, we replace it.
