Safe & Constructive Detention

What maintenance schedule and performance measures should be used for the jail's HVAC system and backup generators?

The report finds that HVAC failures and limited generator duration can expose the jail to hot or cold conditions and recommends regular maintenance and system updates for both systems.

Why this matters

Reliable temperature control and backup power are basic safeguards for people who cannot leave the facility during equipment or power failures.
