Let’s say you are about to buy a used car. You’ve done your due diligence, researched options, and have gone over what you need and what features you’d like. After selecting the brand and make, you schedule an appointment to take one for a spin. While making small talk with the current owner, he lets you know he has never had any maintenance done on the car…ever. Is this a deal-breaker for you? Would you feel comfortable buying this car, trusting it with your transportation needs and safety? According to Learner’s Dictionary, “Preventative” means “used to stop something bad from happening”. It is defined in a similar yet more professional manner by other dictionaries, however, Learner’s goes right to the point.

Preventative maintenance might seem like an oversight when it comes to your pump systems, but if at some point you’ve needed emergency service, you should know it could’ve possibly been avoided by having preventative maintenance done on the equipment. Most pumps work 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It’s not until one goes down that you, your property manager and your tenants start to miss what it was doing: maintaining pressure at higher floors, getting water or sewage out of lower levels, or making sure you are ready during a fire emergency.
