7 Facilities Issues You Must Check This Fall  

 

We've prepared a list of 7 facilities issues every Building Owner or Facilities Director should check this fall. Do you have all your bases covered? 

  

7 Facilities Issues You Need to Check This Fall   

 

Time for Your Perimeter Check 

 

At least twice a year, you should conduct a Perimeter Check to prevent potential problems. Learn what to look for and how to coordinate yours with our illustrations and quick tips.

 

How to Conduct a Perimeter Check  

 

How Thermal Imaging "Exposes" Water Penetration  

 

The costs to repair water damage can be very high. Now you can "see" water intrusion before it has time to develop into large, costly repairs. With thermal imaging, you can see otherwise "invisible" water penetration and stop problems in their tracks.

Fall and winter are just around the corner bringing cooler temperatures. Maintaining warmth and minimizing the dangers of cold and icy conditions become larger priorities.

This issue focuses on offering tips to get ready for the colder weather and steps you can take to be prepared. With proper planning and diagnostics, anticipating seasonal facilities changes becomes a much easier task. New thermal imaging technologies can help detect issues such as water intrusion and help pinpoint areas that need better insulation to retain warmth.

In each issue, we are also delighted to announce new clients. We continue to expand into new markets, just going to show that smart planning is critical for ALL types of business. We are eager to help with your facilities assessments and other planning services, and we also welcome your referrals.
