Today, the benefits of a well-organized maintenance program are two-fold. Facilities managers and building owners can realize substantial savings on conditioned air equipment repairs when a systematic schedule for routine checkups and minor repairs is started.
Budgeting for planned mechanical system repairs is always preferred over waiting for a catastrophic event to occur and then draining the “emergency fund” budget to pay for it. Life use of the equipment is extended when periodic inspections of the mechanical systems identify and address small problems, increasing the property value and providing a better return on the initial investment.
