− | Maintaining an SPIS does not require advanced technical skills. The overall effort is relatively low when compared to most other technologies. However, it does require good and systematic monitoring to anticipate problems and react timely to service needs. Given the relatively high initial investment in SPIS, it is important to properly maintain each component. In addition, it is important to monitor changes in other factors that affect the performance of the system, such as water availability, soil health, etc.<br/> | + | Maintaining an SPIS does not require advanced technical skills.

Each component has specific maintenance requirements. The service provider maintaining the SPIS also finds useful information on its promotion in the '''[[SPIS - Promote + Initiate|PROMOTE & INITIATE]]''' module. During the maintenance routines the sustainable water abstraction rates should be checked as described in the module '''[[SPIS Safeguard Water|SAFEGUARD WATER]]'''. The '''[[SPIS Finance|FINANCE]]''' module gives an insight into financing SPIS components and configurations in different ways. The costs and efforts for maintaining the SPIS are also considered in the previous modules '''[[SPIS Design|DESIGN]]''' and '''[[SPIS Set Up|SET UP]]'''. |

This module provides examples of maintenance checklists. It is important that the maintenance activities are documented and monitored precisely. | | The maintenance routines will influence the efficiency of operation as well as the lifetime of the SPIS.
