Who will change the elevator when it reaches its life?

Elevator in residential area belongs to public facilities shared by all owners. After the service life expires, all owners of the building need to bear the elevator replacement cost together. The general property will ask the elevator supplier to assist in the replacement. The maintenance fund paid by the owner when buying a house can also be applied for when replacing the elevator.

Service life of elevator

Elevator has a certain life, generally 15~20 years. But the specific situation needs to be treated separately according to the frequency of elevator use and maintenance. Usually, the elevator needs annual inspection, and passing the annual inspection means that it can still be used. The service life of elevators in some communities can even reach 25 years under the premise of proper maintenance.

However, in order to be on the safe side, elevators over the age of 15 must pay special attention to the state of elevator parts, because many parts will age, and if the equipment maintenance is not in place, it is likely to cause serious safety hazards. Therefore, many areas have introduced mandatory scrapping standards to avoid accidents as much as possible.
