Air-Driven Home
Elevator.
NOW SERVING HOMEOWNERS THROUGHOUT ORLANDO
A PVE home elevator moves your cab using changes in air pressure instead of a hydraulic piston, cable, or counterweight system. A vacuum pump at the top of the unit gently pulls air from below the cab, and it rises. To descend, air is let back in and gravity does the rest. There’s no pit to dig, no separate machine room to build, and no oil-based hydraulic system to maintain. Homeowners from College Park to Lake Eola Heights are installing PVE elevators to move easily between floors without a major construction project.

ORLANDO LIVES
Orlando’s College Park and Lake Eola Heights neighborhoods feature Craftsman, Colonial Revival, and Mediterranean Revival homes, many with upper floors or converted attics reached by narrow original staircases. Because both are historic districts, exterior or structural changes may require additional design review.
That’s exactly the kind of home a PVE elevator was built for. Because the unit is self-supporting and needs no pit, shaft, or machine room, it can go into a College Park bungalow or a Lake Eola Heights Colonial Revival without a major structural rework. Most installations are done in two to three days, which matters given how a full elevator project with structural modifications and historic district review can otherwise stretch out.
For homeowners planning to stay in their Orlando home long term, a PVE elevator means an upstairs bedroom or converted attic space stops being out of reach. It connects levels without reworking a home’s historic character. And because the system draws minimal power and pairs easily with solar, it fits naturally alongside the growing number of Orlando homes adding solar and other energy-efficient upgrades.

testimonials
My house was built in 1925 and it was hard to get something to fit in with the décor of my home, but the PVE fit in perfectly.
I am thrilled with the design, engineering, and reliability of the elevator by PVE.
We are not age-limited with the elevator. At any age, it’s like living on a single floor.
We’ve been here 5 years and it’s never needed anything. The elevator has been flawless.
It Turns A 2-Story Into A Ranch Concept!
It’s for the ease & access but also for the resale. In think the investment is worth it!

WHY HOMEOWNERS CHOOSE PVE
Certified and Safety-Tested
Every PVE home elevator is independently tested to meet national safety standards. During a power outage, the cab safely descends rather than stopping between floors.
Ready for a Power Outage
Orlando sees its share of hurricanes and seasonal storms. A PVE elevator’s auto-descend function brings the cab safely to the ground floor if the power drops, and a battery backup option is available for added peace of mind.
Designed to Be Seen, Not Hidden
The 360-degree glass cab isn’t boxed into a closet or hallway. It becomes part of the room, showing off natural light from an unexpected angle.
Low Maintenance by Design
There are no oils, gases, or lubricants to top off or replace. That means fewer service calls and less to worry about long after installation.
No Shaft, No Pit, No Machine Room
The structure supports itself, so it can go into an existing home without a foundation dig or a dedicated equipment room, which matters in Orlando’s historic bungalows and Mediterranean Revival homes with tight floor plans.

Common Questions
About Home Elevators
in ORLANDO
Can a home elevator be added to an existing Orlando home?
Yes. PVE elevators are designed for retrofits and don’t require a pit, shaft, or separate machine room, which makes them a practical option for historic bungalows and Mediterranean Revival homes.
How much space does a PVE elevator need?
Most models fit in a footprint similar to a large closet, roughly 30 to 52 inches in diameter depending on the model, so it can usually be placed without a major layout change.
Is a home elevator a good option for aging in place?
Many Orlando homeowners install a PVE elevator specifically to stay in a multi-story home longer, connecting a main floor to an upstairs bedroom or converted attic space without relying on stairs.
Do I need a machine room or pit?
No. The self-supporting design eliminates the need for a hoistway, pit, or separate machine room that a traditional hydraulic elevator would require.
What does a home elevator cost in Orlando?
Cost depends on the model, the number of floors served, and site-specific factors like ceiling height and finish work. A local PVE dealer can walk through pricing for your specific home.
What permits are required in Orlando?
Single-family residential elevators are exempt from Florida’s statewide Bureau of Elevator Safety oversight, but installation still requires a permit from the City of Orlando’s building department, and work must be performed by a Florida-licensed elevator contractor. Homes within a designated historic district like College Park or Lake Eola Heights may also require design review for exterior or structural changes.
Is there a PVE model for wheelchair accessibility?
Yes. PVE offers models designed to accommodate wheelchair access. A dealer can help identify which model fits your home and mobility needs.
