At Repair Makers, we’ve been servicing freestanding autoclaves, steam generators, and boilers for years. We’ve seen what happens when regular maintenance is skipped—and trust us, it’s not pretty. From unexpected breakdowns to skyrocketing repair costs, neglected equipment always ends up costing more in the long run.
That’s why we preach scheduled maintenance—not because it’s a sales pitch, but because it’s the smartest way to keep your equipment running efficiently, avoid downtime, and extend its lifespan.
If you’re using an Amsco®, Steris®, or Getinge® autoclave, or running a General Boiler®, Pacific Steam®, or Electro-Steam® steam generator, here’s what you need to know about keeping them in top shape.
Why Regular Maintenance Matters (and How It Saves You Money)
- Avoid Expensive Breakdowns
At Repair Makers, we’ve serviced thousands of units, and we can tell you firsthand: small issues turn into big problems fast.
- A clogged autoclave drain can lead to cycle failures.
- A neglected steam generator can develop scale buildup, making it work twice as hard.
- A worn-out gasket can cause leaks, forcing a shutdown.
We’ve seen it all, and it’s always the same story—a little routine maintenance could have prevented a major, costly repair.
- Keep Your Equipment Running at Peak Efficiency
Autoclaves, steam generators, and boilers all rely on heat, steam, and pressure to do their job. When minerals build up or components wear down, efficiency takes a hit—meaning your equipment has to work harder, consume more energy, and push parts to their limits.
With routine maintenance, you:
- Prevent scale buildup that restricts heat transfer
- Ensure optimal steam pressure for proper sterilization
- Keep valves, gaskets, and seals in top condition
- Stay Compliant & Avoid Regulatory Headaches
If you’re in healthcare, research, or sterile processing, compliance isn’t optional. Equipment failures due to poor maintenance can put you out of compliance with OSHA, the CDC, and manufacturers’ sterilization standards.
We know the regulations inside and out—and we make sure your equipment meets all necessary requirements to keep your operation running without fines or failures.
- Protect Your Investment & Extend Equipment Life
We’ve worked on autoclaves and steam generators that could have lasted another 5+ years—if only they had been properly maintained. Instead, they were damaged beyond repair due to corrosion, overheating, or neglected parts.
When you invest in high-quality equipment, you want to get the most years out of it. Our preventive maintenance plans do exactly that—saving you from premature replacements and unnecessary capital expenses.
What Maintenance Looks Like for Your Equipment
At Repair Makers, we don’t just fix problems—we prevent them. Here’s what we focus on during scheduled maintenance:
Freestanding Autoclaves (Amsco®, Steris®, Getinge®):
- Drain strainer cleaning – Keeps sterilization cycles running smoothly
- Descaling & chamber cleaning – Prevents mineral buildup
- Door gasket checks & replacements – Stops leaks before they start
- Pressure & temperature calibration – Ensures consistent sterilization
Steam Generators & Boilers (General Boiler®, Pacific Steam®, Electro-Steam®):
- Water quality analysis – Prevents corrosion and scale buildup
- Blowdown procedures – Removes sediment and extends unit lifespan
- Valve & seal inspections – Stops leaks and maintains efficiency
- Safety checks & pressure testing – Ensures reliable operation
We Know Maintenance. We Know These Machines.
At Repair Makers, we specialize in keeping freestanding autoclaves, steam generators, and boilers running like new. We’ve worked with some of the biggest names in healthcare, research, and manufacturing—because they trust us to keep their critical equipment in top condition.
Don’t wait until something breaks. Schedule your maintenance now. Let’s make sure your equipment is working efficiently, reliably, and safely—before problems arise.
