Preventive Maintenance Guidelines for School Facilities K-12

John C. Maciha

A complete PM system for K-12 schools. Features checklists, wall chart, and web site.

This easy-to-use system for K-12 schools, comprising a book, wall chart, and electronic forms, is designed to help maintenance professionals identify, assess, and address equipment and material deficiencies before they become costly malfunctions. Over 40 checklists cover all areas of schools, organized by building systems such as HVAC, roofing, and lighting, and by areas such as classrooms, cafeterias, auditoriums, and playing fields. The checklists include comprehensive details on what to look for, how often, and what PM procedures are required to preserve the integrity of the school. Inspection frequencies are broken into intervals-from biweekly to every five years.

The book also provides expert guidance on estimating, repairing deficiencies, outsourcing, and budgeting. Users will learn exactly how to implement a successful PM system-from training staff and record keeping, to conducting regular inspections and performing the tasks necessary to sustain the life of the building and ward off equipment failure. The system can be customized for special conditions of facilities by using the electronic checklists downloadable from the book's Web site. A laminated wall chart is included to track progress.

3-ring binder, over 200 pages, with downloadable electronic files and wall chart.
