Top Preventive Maintenance Tips for Your Building Posted on August 2, 2021August 2, 2021 By Leigh Langston Preventive maintenance is necessary to prevent major repairs or damage to your building. You don’t want to wait for something to break before you fix it because it could prevent your operations from continuing. Check out the top preventive maintenance tips for your building to ensure your company doesn’t skip a beat. Prevent Electrical Fires Look around the interior and exterior of your building for loose, hanging wires or exposed electrical equipment. You should call a professional to repair damage. Faulty electrical wiring could cause a fire, potentially costing you revenue and lives. Pro Tip: Check your smoke alarms! In the event of a fire, proper alarms may help prevent the fire from spreading. Maintain Indoor Air Quality Your HVAC requires regular maintenance by both your employees and systems operators to ensure proper circulation in the building. You should change the filters every month and check the airflow meters to ensure each room in your building is receiving a steady stream of air. Understanding how thermal airflow measurements work will help you control the humidity in your building and optimize your energy use. Inspect Plumbing Leaky plumbing in bathrooms and basements can lead to water damage. Water damage can cause mold and mildew to grow, which may cause health problems in those who are exposed to it. Further, plumbing issues are more expensive to fix than repair. Hire a professional to improve leaky pipes. Check Out Elevators Elevators are necessary in many buildings, but they can easily break. You must maintain your elevators throughout the year to prevent costly repairs. Further, you can prevent harming people inside—and any potential lawsuit that may come with it—by keeping your elevators in working order. Follow these top preventive maintenance tips for your building to keep your operations flowing smoothly. You have a better chance of retaining employees and saving money when you focus on maintenance.
