Why Do Control Rooms Require Preventative Maintenance & Cleaning?

Your mission-critical operation is the pulse of your organization, and it's asked to stand up to the most rigorous wear and tear imaginable, 24/7, 365. Debris, dirt, dust, and mold buildup in and around your consoles, cavities, and cables can harm your employees’ health and safety, control room environments, and control room equipment. Proper control room maintenance service can help your sensitive equipment run more efficiently, reduce the possibility of equipment overheating, extend the life of your consoles, and increase productivity.

EvansCare is not just deep control room cleaning; we also tighten hinges and screws while also making sure your entire control room is aligned properly.

Control Room Cleaning Investment

Investing in maintaining your control room investment can be the difference between having to replace your consoles much earlier and/or having to pay for costly parts to be replaced. It can be the difference between a 5-year or a 20-year lifespan. There are many elements to consider as part of your console future-proofing 
investment plan:

  • Preventative maintenance
  • Cable management
  • Environmental factors
  • Cost of operations (including overtime and sick pay)
  • Efficiency of equipment

However, there are higher costs associated with lost time, premature console replacement, and the impact on the health and safety of employees, which speaks to the value of this service and its further reach past regular janitorial services.

How Long Control Room Cleaning Might Take? 

The time spent cleaning your control room is an extensive one. A typical control room cleaning and preventative maintenance service will take approximately two hours per console. Professional cleaning crews will usually clean all high-touch surfaces at least three times. They will go inside and outside the cabinets and work surfaces, blow out the CPUs and fans, and remove all dust and debris from wires and cabling both underneath and behind the console. Keyboards, mice, and monitors will also be thoroughly cleaned. A special monitor cleaner and the highest grade of low-center cleaner are required to ensure no one is affected by harsh chemical solvents. 

Cleaning wires, cables, and electrical equipment is crucial for maintaining a healthy and efficient workspace. Removing dust and debris improves air quality and keeps equipment running smoothly. Unlike traditional janitorial services, which avoid the tricky areas behind and beneath consoles, our specialized cleaning team tackles those hard-to-reach spots. Plus, standard vacuums used by regular cleaning companies often release dust back into the air, compromising indoor air quality. Our approach ensures a more effective and thorough service.

Many people mistakenly assume that investing in control room cleaning and preventative maintenance will be expensive. This misconception can lead to significant risks. In any mission-critical environment—whether it's a control room, communication center, or PSAP command center—investing in proper cleaning and maintenance boosts performance, reduces risks, and adds value to your operation.

By creating a healthier workspace and protecting your equipment, you minimize health risks, reduce the chance of equipment failure, and extend the life of your investment. Plus, a clean environment improves morale across the board.

When confronted with the question, “How can we afford to do this?” the response is: How can you afford not to? We need to champion the people who work in these mission-critical environments by giving them the optimum workspace possible, be it lighting, acoustics, ergonomics, and yes, cleanliness, all while assuring that their equipment is working to the most optimum parameters possible.
