Reduce Elevator Operating Costs With These Tips

Reduce Elevator Operating Costs With These Tips

Maintaining a property can be expensive, especially if you want to keep it in the best shape possible. With all the costs adding up, property managers try to cut costs wherever they can. Try starting with your elevator. We have compiled a few ways to reduce the operating costs of your commercial elevator.

Read Your Service Contract

There’s a chance your service contract offers more services than you realize. If you don’t utilize all the services included in your contract, you’re not maximizing what you’ve already paid for. Read through the contract to make sure you’re not missing any regular inspections, maintenance, or common repairs that are included.

Once you know what you’re entitled to under your contract, schedule those services when they come up. You should always keep current on elevator testing dates, inspection dates, and other important service calls.

Learn About Your Equipment

Each elevator is going to run at a little bit different capacity than the next. It’s important you learn about the specific equipment your building houses, not just elevators in general. Come to understand the history of elevators and how your particular model stacks up. Learn about the lifecycle of your elevator and what potential risks it holds. Understanding these things will help you with preventative maintenance and getting the most out of your elevator.

Keep Good Records

When you get bills or other statements regarding your elevator, make sure you look through them and then file them in an organized system. This will allow you to pick up on patterns. For example, you may notice the same or a similar repair happening every 6 months. Having this knowledge will allow you to budget for that repair ahead of time or that it might be time to start thinking about modernization or replacement, giving you a head start on budgeting.

A reliable elevator service company will help make sure you are getting your money’s worth. To learn more, or to start working with a reliable elevator service company today, contact Action Elevator by calling 410-774-4573 or emailing us today!
