What’s in DA19?

For over 20 years, DA19 has been the definitive reference for HVAC&R maintenance in Australia. It defines what maintenance is and why it’s performed. It also discusses the roles and responsibilities of supply-chain stakeholders.

Outlining how best to manage maintenance, DA19 defines a structured process for the development of a system of maintenance, appropriate to a specific building or application.

The 2019 updates to DA19 HVAC&R Maintenance are aligned with industry standards. Maintenance activities have been categorised and are tailored for each site based on minimum compliance and good or best practice, additionally promoting transparency in maintenance specifications and budgets.

New sections covering the growing trend for digital and smart maintenance practices are also covered.
