1. Plumbing Preventive Maintenance
in Commercial Buildings

2. Are you washing cash down the drain with that plumbing problem or
water leak? Our guess is that you probably are when there are
preventive maintenance plans that can help you avoid costly water
damage and the unexpected overflowing drain.

3. These types of plans cover many types of systems and are usually
inexpensive compared with the costs to recover from a significant
plumbing problem. But oftentimes this type of maintenance is usually
only considered after costly water damage has occurred. If you are a
facility manager, building owner or a property manager, you should
strongly consider incorporating a plumbing preventive maintenance
plan for your facility.
Simple proactive plans can help you avoid insurance claims that affect
your bottom line as well relationships with your tenants. A building’s
mechanical and electrical systems are typically the major component of
a property’s maintenance budget.

4. We believe plumbing systems should be given the same consideration
when planning a preventive maintenance budget. Plumbing preventive
maintenance programs include inspections of drain lines and sewer
systems, backflow testing and certification, grease traps, water heaters
and boilers.
Regular plumbing maintenance allows potential problems to be
detected earlier and the associated cost to correct those problems is
usually a fraction of the cost to recover from a water or sewer disaster.

5. How does this type of maintenance help you save?
Plumbing preventive maintenance can help you save money and
energy. It can also aid in tenant retention, the life blood of your
business. Standard plumbing preventive maintenance plans are
typically easy on your budget when compared to similar programs for
mechanical and electrical systems. This is a major factor when
considering the cost to recover from plumbing system failures can be
equal to or more than a failure of your mechanical or electrical
systems.

6. Tips, tricks and considerations
When selecting a plumbing company for your facility, you should
always make sure their plumbers are licensed and experienced. You
should also inquire about the number of plumbers a company has on
staff. This is an indicator of how responsive a company can be when
you need them the most. A capable plumbing contractor should have
the equipment needed to perform in all types of scenarios whether its
routine maintenance or responding to an emergency. These include
sewer-jetters, line cameras and even a backhoe if they are serious
about taking care of any situation. Protect your investment and
consider a plumbing preventive maintenance program for your facility.
