Who will change the elevator when it reaches its life?
The property management company is responsible for the replacement or the owners share the maintenance costs. Elevators are generally purchased and installed by property management companies, which are also responsible for the daily maintenance and repair of elevators. The expenses shall be shared by the owner. Owners are required to pay public maintenance funds when purchasing new commercial houses. The public maintenance fund can be used for the maintenance and renewal of public parts and facilities of houses. After the elevator expires, the owner can apply for maintenance fund as the replacement cost of the elevator according to the relevant procedures, and the property or industry Committee will contact professionals to install and replace the new elevator. If the community does not set up a special maintenance fund, then the replacement cost of the elevator needs to be borne by all the owners of the community. This is because elevators are public facilities, and their maintenance and replacement are the responsibility of all owners in the community. In addition, if the elevator fails during the warranty period, the maintenance cost should be borne by the elevator manufacturer, which has nothing to do with the community owner.
