Deferring Maintenance

Deferring maintenance may be saving money to stay in budget but it could lead to costs doubled, tripled, or even ten times the amount it would have cost to perform routine maintenance. When you defer maintenance, you not only risk the equipment failing, you also risk taking away the healthy work environment employees expect. The average person spends a third of their life at work, making the indoor air quality of a workplace just as important as anywhere else. Especially with current events, clean air is heavily sought after.

The phrase “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” is one commonly said in many facilities. What that phrase fails to include is the hidden issues that can lead equipment to break, resulting higher repair costs. Repeated use of a piece of equipment, including HVAC distribution systems and air handler units – with deferred maintenance, can become more costly than keeping up with routine maintenance. When equipment breaks, you can run into frequent downtime and costly repairs that could have been prevented.

An important task under routine maintenance is cleaning. HVAC distribution systems (air ducts) and air handler units should be regularly cleaned. Without regularly scheduled cleaning, filters, coils, and air ducts can become clogged and other components sit covered in dust-borne particles and other debris, causing your system to operate at less than 100% efficiency. Clogged filters prevent clean air from circulating through the facility – potentially triggering the asthma and allergies of your employees.

HVAC distribution system and air handler unit cleaning increases the life of the equipment and reduces unexpected costs. If an HVAC distribution system and air handler unit are clogged, it is going to cause them to work harder to get the facility to a comfortable temperature. Overworking the systems can cause overheating and broken parts – reducing the lifespan of the system altogether. Repairs can be costly and having to perform repairs can cause unscheduled downtime – costing the facility time and money. A professional performing the cleaning service can uncover issues you may have never seen otherwise, allowing you to tackle them before they get out of hand.
