Winter is fast approaching, and freezing weather can catch building crews by surprise, even across the sunny Southwest. Don’t let an overnight cold snap put a strain on your building’s operations.
Even if it seems like your building is running smoothly, it is still wise to take care of your critical HVAC, electrical and plumbing systems as the weather changes. Review our essential winter maintenance checklist here.

We recommend quarterly planned maintenance on your HVAC, plumbing and electrical equipment.

Conversely, your air conditioning units, chillers, and cooling towers don’t get as much use during winter, so it’s actually a good time to maintain and service them, as they’re being used sparingly. Cold air can wreak havoc on pipes, especially if there’s already an unknown leak or corrosion. Being proactive in all three of these areas can help save you from bigger issues down the road.
