PREPARING FOR BUILDING RE-OCCUPANCY

The novel coronavirus caused massive disruptions for businesses, especially brick and mortar institutions around the globe. Countries worldwide had to take refuge in multiple lockdowns driving commercial places to shut down for extended periods. 

Now when businesses are reopening, preparing for re-occupancy is more crucial than ever. From HVAC to Plumbing – everything needs to be inspected and serviced for protection against the COVID19 and bacteria, pollutants, allergens, and other contaminants.

Not Preparing Can Delay Occupancy:

Although the lockdowns are being relaxed and businesses are reopening, the lethal virus is still there. It’s lurking in the environment packed with all of its lethality – accompanied by several equally fatal strains. NOW is the time to take action and get building re-occupancy preparation services to secure your customers and staff from the horrors of this deadly virus. 

Failure to implement necessary preparations can result in the spread of infection among the staff as they’ll be exposed to customers every day. This can call for a building-wide lockdown – you’ll be losing business while your competitors who prepared for re-occupancy will be raking in profits. 

Take The Proactive Approach – Secure Your Facility:

It’s time to ACT and secure your facility before it’s too late. The building is not just vulnerable to the COVID19 outbreak; several other viruses, bacteria, allergens, and various contaminants are out there in the air and water. 

You need an HVAC inspection to ensure everything from the air filters to fans and motors is clean and free from the risk of contamination.  

The same goes for waterworks; you need plumbing inspection to ensure the water used in your building is safe and free from the risk of cross-contamination.

The closer we get to re-occupancy, the more in demand Plumbers, HVAC technicians and supplies will be to access.

BOMA and AOBA advises performing the services listed below for the health of your building and tenants prior to occupancy.
