Equipment Care, Visit Checklist & Service Selector

BEFORE THE VISIT

A little preparation. A smoother visit.

Tick the items you have ready. This checklist stays on this page and is not sent to Wipro.

Share the basicsSite location, contact person, equipment make or model, number of units and the service you need.Describe the concernNote symptoms, error codes, when the problem began and any recent repairs. Take a photo from a safe position if helpful.Confirm accessArrange building entry, parking, keys or security clearance. Let us know about roof access, inductions and permits before the visit.Make the area availableMove loose items away from accessible units and keep a clear working route. Tell your team which rooms may need to be available.Discuss operating restrictionsShare opening hours, sensitive areas and any limits on shutdowns. Refrigeration operators should plan stock handling and contingency arrangements.Have records readyGather the manual, equipment inventory, warranty details and service history if available. It is fine if some information is missing.

Please leave equipment assembled. You do not need to inspect wiring, climb to units or remove panels to prepare for a visit.

EVERYDAY EQUIPMENT CARE

Simple habits. Clear boundaries.

These general tips are for comfort air conditioning. Follow your model’s manual; specialist healthcare, industrial and refrigeration equipment needs its own operating procedures.

Filters: follow the manual

Check the manufacturer’s cleaning or replacement instructions. Only handle filters described as user-serviceable, with the unit switched off as directed. Do not wash disposable filters or remove service covers.

Controls: check the settings

Confirm the operating mode, temperature setting and timer schedule. Replace remote batteries as instructed. Record an error code rather than repeatedly resetting the system.

Airflow: keep routes clear

Avoid placing furniture or stock against accessible air inlets and outlets. Keep the area around outdoor units clear without reaching into fans, opening panels or climbing to equipment.

Servicing: follow the equipment’s needs

Use manufacturer guidance and the system’s operating conditions to plan servicing. Dust, heavy use and recurring faults may call for a review of the schedule.

Book a check when performance changes

Weak cooling, leaks, icing, repeated cycling, unusual noise or persistent odours deserve assessment. Share what changed and when; these symptoms do not identify a single cause.

Leave technical work to a technician

Electrical checks, refrigerant work, internal cleaning and work at height require suitable skills and access. If there is smoke, burning or repeated power tripping, stop using the unit and seek professional help.

REPAIR OR REPLACE?

Compare the options. Start with a diagnosis.

Age alone does not decide the answer. Review the fault, condition, suitability and full costs before choosing.

Factor	Repair may be worth exploring	Compare replacement when
Fault and repair scope	An identified, limited fault with a clear repair plan.	Major damage, several failing components or an uncertain repair outcome.
Overall condition	The remaining system is in serviceable condition.	Deterioration affects several parts of the system.
Repair history	An isolated issue with an otherwise dependable record.	Repeated faults, repeat call-outs or increasing downtime.
Parts and warranty	Suitable parts are available and warranty terms are clear.	Parts are unavailable, lead times are impractical or support is limited.
Suitability for the space	The system still meets the building’s cooling requirements.	Usage, occupancy or cooling needs have changed.
Cost over time	Repair and expected ongoing care make practical sense.	Installed replacement cost, operation and downtime justify comparing alternatives.

Ask for a like-for-like comparison

Compare the repair quotation and warranty with the full replacement cost, including installation and associated work. Ask about parts lead times, expected downtime and the assumptions behind any running-cost estimate.
