HVAC maintenance contracts in Terrassa
Annual maintenance contracts in Terrassa with the scope set out unit by unit, including shared buildings and industrial units that combine HVAC, electrical and refrigeration.
In Terrassa, many professional buildings have changed use, owner or tenants several times, and their HVAC has been added piece by piece. When it comes to contracting maintenance, the question is not only how often units are inspected, but which ones are included, who is responsible for each and what happens when something fails that nobody had on the list. MRS Climatización sets up annual maintenance contracts for property managers, building managers and facility managers in the town, with the scope defined in writing.
Why the contract starts with the inventory
In a town with so many converted industrial buildings, it is common for nobody to hold a complete list of equipment. There are units installed by previous tenants, panels extended without updating the drawings and machines whose location is only roughly known. During the diagnosis phase we walk the building, identify every unit and record its condition. That inventory becomes the contract annex: whatever appears on it is covered, and whatever does not is quoted separately.
Defining scope in shared buildings
Former textile mills converted into offices, workshops or multi-business spaces, and buildings with several users, raise a practical question: which equipment is shared and which belongs to each occupant. Before signing, it is worth making clear:
- Which units, panels and central plant belong to the landlord and which to each tenant.
- Who authorises repairs and who receives the reports.
- How access to private spaces is arranged for inspecting shared equipment.
- What happens when a tenant leaves or installs new equipment.
HVAC, electrical and refrigeration in one industrial unit
On the town's industrial estates, a single unit often combines air-conditioned offices, work areas, electrical panels feeding machinery and, for some activities, cold rooms. Bringing these installations into one contract means an incident spanning several disciplines never ends up without someone responsible. Each installation has its own tasks and frequencies, and equipment is ranked by criticality to agree how calls are prioritised. The general model is explained on the technical maintenance contracts page.
An annual schedule suited to the climate
An annual contract covers the two seasons that place most strain on equipment inland in the Vallès: summer heat and cold winter mornings. The schedule places cooling inspections in spring and heating inspections in autumn, and respects the periods when the building cannot stop, such as term time in a school or production in an industrial unit. The specific seasonal tasks are set out on the HVAC maintenance in Terrassa page.
Reports that are useful to the owner
In buildings with equipment from different generations, periodic reports are the basis for deciding what to replace and when. They record the condition of each installation, incidents handled, outstanding issues and recommendations, so the owner can spread investment across financial years. MRS is also incorporating a web platform with a digital record per unit, each identified by its label, showing history, upcoming inspections and preventive alerts.
Close to the Sabadell base
Terrassa borders Sabadell, where MRS has its production and warehouse base. That makes it easier to prepare scheduled visits with the materials and spare parts each unit needs, and to coordinate the access arrangements and hours set in the contract with the building manager. Service conditions are defined in each contract, according to the building and its use.

Frequently asked questions
In a former industrial building with several tenants, which units does the contract cover?
Those listed in the inventory attached to the contract, with their location and owner. Usually the landlord contracts the shared equipment and each tenant decides on the units serving their own space, although everything can also be brought under a single contract. What matters is that every unit has a clear owner before the first breakdown.
Can the contract include the electrical panels of a unit that has been extended several times?
Yes. During the diagnosis we review the panels feeding the HVAC, machinery and lighting, and record any extensions that are not documented. With that information, the relevant electrical maintenance tasks are added to the contract with their own frequencies, alongside those for HVAC and industrial refrigeration.
How is the schedule set for a contract covering an education building?
We start from the academic calendar. Tasks that require stopping equipment or working in classrooms are placed in the holidays and on days without activity, and the pre-summer and pre-winter inspections go into the weeks the school specifies. The schedule is attached to the contract and reviewed every year.
We have units running on older refrigerants; can they be included?
They can be included once their condition has been checked. The contract should state how leaks or faults on those units will be handled, because repairs may be limited. Periodic reports record their condition so the owner can plan replacement in good time rather than in response to a breakdown.
Can out-of-hours visits be written into the contract?
Yes. Night or out-of-hours work can be arranged in advance, and the contract can specify which tasks will take place in those slots, for example in town-centre shops or in industrial units with daytime production. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 9:00 to 18:30.
