Planned Preventative Maintenance (Heating)

What commercial heating PPM covers

A structured maintenance plan designed to reduce breakdown risk and keep systems operating efficiently. Coverage is tailored to your site and equipment, and can include:

• Planned servicing visits at agreed intervals
• Safety and performance checks on boilers and associated plant
• Inspection of pumps, valves, expansion and pressurisation equipment
• Control and thermostat checks, optimisation and basic recalibration
• Water quality checks and system condition observations
• Identification of wear, leaks and early failure risks
• Minor remedial works where practical, with clear recommendations for larger repairs
• Documentation of works completed and any follow-on actions

Who it’s for and when it’s most useful

PPM is best suited to offices, retail units, managed properties and small commercial sites that need predictable heating performance. It is particularly valuable if you:

• Rely on heating for staff comfort or customer areas
• Manage multiple tenancies or have landlord responsibilities
• Need evidence of servicing for compliance, audits or insurers
• Want to reduce reactive call-outs and emergency downtime

How the service is delivered

You agree a maintenance schedule based on the type of plant, usage patterns and access requirements. Each visit follows a planned checklist, with findings explained in plain English and priorities clearly set out. If remedial work is needed, you receive a transparent scope of works so you can approve repairs and plan downtime.

After the visit: reporting, follow-ups and ongoing value

You receive a written record of what was checked, what was completed, and what should be addressed next. Where appropriate, recommendations focus on practical efficiency improvements and risk reduction rather than unnecessary replacements. Over time, PPM helps you budget more accurately by moving work from emergency fixes to planned maintenance.
