Why is connectivity king?
Let’s imagine, if we connect all boilers, valves and other equipment to the internet, all this information can be centralised in one place. This means that instead of having to review all the individual logs, a service engineer can get a clear overview of all the essential data. By using this method, it’s then possible to do predictive maintenance (foreseeing when a problem could arise) instead of reactive maintenance or preventive maintenance (regular maintenance to prevent the likelihood of failure).
By identifying these potential breakdowns, enormous amounts of money can be saved, that would otherwise have been spent on replacement costs, downtime and possible future damage. This notion works exactly the same for connected tools.
