FAQ
If the controller is obsolete, parts are hard to source and callbacks are rising, modernization usually costs less over ten years than continued repairs. A survey makes the comparison clear.
It depends on the device and how hard it works. the elevator safety code (ASME A17.1 / CSA B44) requires a written maintenance control program for every device; we set intervals from actual use and callback history.
In Alberta, elevating devices are regulated by AEDARSA. Devices need a valid licence or permit and periodic inspection; work must be done by qualified contractors and mechanics.
Most modernizations are phased one car at a time; each car typically takes several weeks depending on scope, so the building keeps service.
Hydraulic oil thickens in the cold. Unheated machine rooms or pits are a common cause; heating or an oil heater usually fixes it.
