In a time when quality counts and efficiency is the difference between consuming utility bills and extra cash for a day on the lake you cannot afford to take chances. As a member of Jerry's Heating & A/C (JHAC) I am here to give you the opportunity to create huge savings as an individual, corporation or both. These savings begin with a fully functional preventive maintenance program. HVAC and electrical preventive maintenance entails much more than just fixing broken equipment. Good preventive maintenance practices interrupt the cycles that perpetuate high-energy use and short equipment life cycles. Preventive maintenance is the scheduled maintenance of a piece of equipment (such as the replacement of air conditioner filters every 10 weeks or the semiannual inspection of the water fountains). In recent years it has been determined that the cutting edge of facility management is now predictive maintenance, which uses sophisticated computer software to forecast the failure of equipment based on age, user demand, and performance measures.
Organizations Must Focus on Preventive Maintenance
A good maintenance program is built on a foundation of preventive maintenance. It begins with an audit of the buildings, grounds, and equipment. Once facilities data have been assembled, structural items and pieces of equipment can be selected for preventive maintenance. When designing a preventive maintenance program, heating and cooling systems are always a good place to start, but planners should think creatively because there may be other components that would be good candidates for preventive maintenance such as the electrical distribution, circuitry, lighting, power generating and wiring of your facility or personal residence.
Think of preventive HVAC and Electrical maintenance in the same way as the preventive maintenance for your car: If you don’t change your engine oil and replace belts and filters, the engine will lock up and the vehicle won’t operate. The same holds true, in a sense, for HVAC and Electrical systems. “If you spend $30 on an oil change in your car, you will save $3,000 on a new engine,” says Matt Ashwood, president and CEO at Bonded Filter Co., Nashville, TN. “Proper preventive maintenance for HVAC and Electrical equipment will do the same thing.”
Maintenance isn’t expensive compared to what you might need to spend if your system degrades (and ultimately fails). Shaker provides this example: If you have a piece of equipment that costs $10,000 to maintain and has a forecasted life of 10 years if properly maintained, you will spend only $20,000 from first cost to replacement cost at the 10-year mark, assuming it would cost $10,000 again to replace it at the end of its life-cycle. However, if you did not properly maintain the unit and it failed at the 5-year mark, you would need to spend $10,000 to replace it after 5 years and then replace that same unit again in another 5 years if you continued to not perform maintenance. Your total cost would be $30,000. These are very substantial savings. Proper maintenance costs a lot less over the life of the equipment than to change out equipment on a more frequent basis,” Shaker says. “The word ‘preventive’ speaks for itself. It keeps things from happening.
Don't become the major contributing factor in failure of your HVAC and Electrical equipment give us a call today for an estimate on your regularly scheduled maintenance. Thank you for your interest!
