Question and Answer:

Q: What Is Preventive Maintenance?

A: When we have a trained service technician disassemble your laundry equipment. He’ll inspect the belts, door gaskets, handles, hoses, drains, mounting studs, bearings, flush bins, solenoid valves, level switches, clutches, inverters, motors, lint screens, wiring harnesses, burner assemblies, blowers, timers, gas valves, thermostats, and exhaust ducts. He’ll make adjustments if needed to your belts, flames, locks and switches and lubricate where and when necessary. A routine gas check will be done to ensure there are no gas leaks. On certain machines, he’ll drain the oil and replace with new. He’ll thoroughly clean your equipment and remove the excessive lint buildup and/or debris. Then, your machines will be ran and tested for proper operation. Management will be advised, in writing, of any worn or broken parts that need replacing or may need replacing in the near future.

Q: How Do Preventive Maintenances Help Me?

A: The most important reason for you to have preventive maintenance done is for safety. It is highly recommended that this service be completed, at the very least, every six months. This helps prevent any potential fire hazards that may arise from unclean or faulty equipment. Also, when equipment is working properly it consumes fewer utilities which will save you money. Clean and properly operating equipment decreases the time it takes to complete a load which decreases labor and all the expense associated with payroll. Catching worn parts before they break can save you down time, additional payroll, and undue stress. But most of all, you’ll have peace of mind that your equipment is operating at peak efficiency. Arrangements can be made to have the Preventive Maintenance completed around your work schedule.
