Avoid A Water Damage in Your Commercial Property By Making Your Appliances A Priority
12/7/2020 (Permalink)
Leaking and blocked appliances may not seem like a top priority, but a small leak can quickly cause a great deal of damage to your business. Paying attention to your appliances—and keeping them up to date—can save you money in the long run and ensure your business avoids interruptions. Here are a few tips for making your appliances a priority:
Schedule Time Every Friday Afternoon
A small leak over a two-day weekend can create a large amount of damage, possibly even forcing you to temporarily close your business. Block out time every Friday afternoon to walk around your property and inspect your appliances. Make sure they’re hooked up to a water source, and check for any blockages or leaks.
Don't Procrastinate
When you discover a problem, have it fixed immediately. Replace a leaky hose, or call a plumber to clear the blockage in your drains or sinks before it causes damage to your property. Finding and fixing an issue early on will save you a lot of trouble, time, and money in your business.
Mark Your Calendar
Mark your calendar for all expiration dates and recommended replacement dates on the appliance parts and hoses. Check the owner’s manual for expiration and replacement time frames.
