How well a system is layed up can be just as important as its care while in full operation. A well-cared-for system during normal operation may suffer neglect as the season is ending. This neglect can cause corrosion and bio-fouling issues which can lead to an increase in maintenance and repair costs, as well as reduced equipment life and/or increasing fuel/energy costs.

HPE knows the value of protecting critical equipment and provides instruction and guidelines to assist in a proper layup sequence which should be part of a regular P.M. schedule.
