Compressed Air Service

Air compressor preventative maintenance plans are a small investment compared to the costs of equipment failure and unplanned downtime. When preventative maintenance is scheduled and performed by qualified technicians using the right lubricants, air filters, in-line filter elements, and spare parts, the risks of breakdown, efficiency loss, or safety hazards are minimized.
Without a plan, costs can quickly add up:

• Lost production due to equipment or system failure
• Compressor rental and hook-up fees
• Rush shipping for parts and  emergency labor
• Emergency repair costs and overtime
• Hasty decisions under stress
• Irreparable damage, or catastrophic compressor failure
• Unplanned replacement costs, pressure drops, and system inefficiencies
• Panic, accidents, and potential safety or environmental risks

The cost of a professional maintenance plan depends on the type and size of your compressed air equipment,  its condition, system complexity, pressure requirements, and operational hours. The accessibility and availability will also impact the cost of labour, with “normal” working hours being the least expensive choice.

Savings come from:

• Strategic purchasing of parts and lubricants
• Oil analysis sampling and vibration testing provide trends to indicate component and material decay
• Avoiding major equipment repairs, emergency  parts delivery, overtime costs, and lost production
• Maintaining peak efficiency, system pressure, and safe operation
• Reducing risk of accidents, corrosion, wear and tear component failure, and catastrophic compressor damage. A single instance of unexpected downtime can result in expensive repairs, unbudgeted costs, or even full equipment replacement, making a proactive maintenance plan a smart investment.

We offer flexible payment options:

1. Pay-as-you-go: Fixed rates for time and materials, billed as services, labour and parts are consumed.
2. Fixed fee: Set annual cost based on your machine usage, covering all routine maintenance, inspections, lubrication, filter replacement, and more.
3. Payment plans: Spread costs evenly over semiannual, quarterly, or monthly payments; over 75% of clients choose this predictable approach. Fixed budget billing helps to stabilize expenditure.

Absolutely. Our technicians service all brands, models, and types of air compressors, dryers, filters, and compressed air equipment—anywhere, anytime, as needed.

Our flexible plans adapt to your plant’s operating changes. If your usage drops and the fixed payment plan results in a credit, we issue a refund or adjust your service as needed. Your air compressor maintenance is always matched to your real requirements.

Yes. As a Kaeser dealer, we offer Sigma Air Manager 4.0 (SAM), which can remotely monitor compressor system performance, analyze for air leaks or pressure drops, and provide alerts for routine or predictive maintenance. This technology supports enhanced functionality—protecting your plant from unforeseen failure, maximizing efficiency, and enabling real-time system data analysis.

Every business using compressed air equipment benefits from scheduled air compressor maintenance and professional inspections. Our plans are trusted by industries from food, beverage, brewing, dairy, and pharma, to automotive, textiles, electronics, and steel. Whether you run a single air compressor or a large-scale system with multiple machines, preventative maintenance increases machine life, safety, and reduces the risk of downtime or damage.

No, nothing is outsourced with Air Solutions Canada. We have one of the largest teams of compressed air service technicians in southern Ontario, including certified refrigeration technicians and millwrights. We have the in-house capability to directly handle any maintenance or service issues that arise.
