Frequently Asked Questions
How often should Preventive Maintenance be conducted for media systems?
We generally recommend a thorough maintenance audit annually or semi-annually, depending on the complexity of your installation and the environment’s conditions (e.g., high dust or high heat areas may require more frequent visits).
Does this plan cover the cost of replacement parts if something is broken?
The Preventive Maintenance service covers the inspection, cleaning, and labor for the audit. Replacement of parts may be covered under your original hardware warranty or service level agreement, which we can review and confirm with you.
Will the technician interrupt our franchise business operations during the visit?
We strive for minimal disruption. We schedule visits during off-peak or after-hours when possible, and our local technicians work efficiently to perform checks and calibrations without impacting your customer-facing operations.
What is involved in "calibration" for a Preventive Maintenance visit?
Calibration ensures your media is delivering the correct output. This involves adjusting screen brightness and color levels, testing audio signal-to-noise ratios, and balancing volume levels across zones for consistent, high-quality delivery.
Is this service a mandatory part of my Mood Media contract?
Preventive Maintenance is typically an optional, add-on managed service. While highly recommended to protect your investment, you can select the service level that best fits your budget and operational risk tolerance for the entire network.
