Maintaining Equipment. Often the simplest and least expensive way to save energy is to correctly maintain existing equipment. This module will enable your business customers to identify the equipment that needs maintenance, pinpoint what needs to be done, judge which of those tasks can be handled in-house, and develop a regular maintenance plan—all from your web site.
