Height and access
| AELC reach class | What it means for your project |
|---|---|
| Standard Reach | Floor-based work with high-reach tools; fastest and least disruptive |
| Extended Reach | Longer floor-based systems; more time per item |
| Elevated Access | Ladders, scaffolds or lifts; planned separately and may add equipment rental |
Why square footage alone misleads
Square footage says nothing about how many vents, fixtures, beams or ducts are overhead. Two 3,000 square foot spaces can differ several times over in actual work. Itemized scopes fix that.
Frequently asked questions
Does more frequent cleaning cost less per visit?
Usually. Maintenance visits take less time than an initial reset because less dust has built up.
