So I’ve been running a small bio lab setup for about three years now, mostly working with PCR machines and centrifuges. Lately, I’ve noticed some of the equipment starts acting up — not broken, but definitely not performing like it used to. I try to keep everything clean, but maybe I’m missing something? Anyone here got solid tips for keeping lab gear running smoothly over time? I’d rather not replace anything big this year if I can avoid it.

Interesting points here. Honestly, I sometimes get confused about what counts as “regular maintenance” vs “preventive maintenance” for lab equipment. Like, is there a standard checklist everyone follows, or does it depend on the type of machine? It kinda reminds me of when I was figuring out installing Thunk in Redux Toolkit — on paper it looked simple, but in practice I realized there were extra small steps that no one mentioned until I asked in discussions like this. Do you guys also keep some hidden tricks for keeping your equipment running longer?
