To keep your Heat, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system in good condition, you need an ongoing maintenance culture. Therefore, you need to schedule a periodic inspection and imbibe a planned HVAC maintenance. Nevertheless, there are 4 phases of planned HVAC you should know.
Corrective maintenance
Usually, if your HVAC system has a defect, it needs to be corrected immediately. Corrective maintenance is the process of fixing an issue on your HVAC system. Corrective maintenance involves fixing any problem on the HVAC that needs immediate attention.
Preventive maintenance
A planned HVAC maintenance culture is called preventive maintenance. Usually, preventive maintenance requires lubrication and regular checking of the system to prevent any problems. Also, preventive maintenance means cleaning, replacing filters, checking the temperature, etc. You may also need to change coils or clean the motor as a preventive practice.
Risk-based maintenance
Risk-based maintenance is similar to a preventive maintenance culture. It primarily involves maintaining your HVAC system based on the manufacturer’s recommendation. It consists in fishing out potential issues before they happen. However, risk-based maintenance requires frequent inspection by a trained technician.
Predictive maintenance
Predictive maintenance involves using data from sources to determine when your HVAC system will need maintenance. Predictive maintenance primarily consists in using technology to check the HVAC system. With the data from predictive maintenance, you can schedule preventive care.
Conclusion
Effective adherence to these 4 phases of the HVAC maintenance culture will prevent a total collapse of the system. Finally, reach out to Meltblown Europe to help you keep your HVAC system in a good condition.
