Common maintenance needs include: - Lubrication of bearings and moving parts. - Inspection and replacement of seals and gaskets. - Verification of proper alignment and tension of belts. - Cleaning and unclogging intake screens.

  2. Boiler Maintenance: Boilers provide essential heat, making their proper functioning crucial. Routine maintenance tasks include: - Cleaning and descaling to prevent mineral buildup. - Inspection of pressure relief valves and controls. - Verification of proper combustion and exhaust. - Testing safety controls and sensors.

  3. Chiller Maintenance: Chillers maintain consistent temperatures, and maintenance is vital for efficiency. Common tasks include: - Cleaning and descaling of the evaporator and condenser coils. - Checking refrigerant levels and detecting leaks. - Verifying proper operation of expansion valves and sensors. - Lubricating motors and moving parts.

Most Common Issues Faced by Customers:

  1. Lack of Maintenance: Neglecting regular maintenance leads to increased wear and tear, reduced efficiency, and a higher risk of breakdowns.

  2. Corrosion and Scale Buildup: Corrosion and mineral scale can accumulate within systems, impeding efficiency and causing damage.

  3. Leaks: Leaks in pumps, boilers, and chillers can result from various factors and lead to inefficiencies and potential safety hazards.

  4. Overheating and Poor Temperature Control: Malfunctioning controls or sensors can result in overheating or inadequate temperature regulation.

  5. Energy Inefficiency: Poorly maintained systems consume more energy, leading to higher operational costs.
