Does Your Elevator Really Need an Oil Change?

The Truth About Hydraulic Oil Changes
Many elevator companies recommend oil changes based solely on the age of the elevator. Not on the condition of the oil. But the truth is: most elevators don’t need their oil changed.
Changing oil that doesn’t need replacing is not only wasteful — it can cost you thousands of dollars.
Our Solution: Oil Analysis & Honest Evaluation
Before we ever recommend replacing your elevator’s hydraulic oil, Veteran Elevator performs a professional oil analysis. This process evaluates the current condition of your oil, checking for contamination, oxidation, acidity, and other performance-degrading factors.
More often than not, your oil doesn’t need to be replaced — it just needs to be cleaned.
Offline Filtration: Cleaner Oil, No Waste
Instead of recommending full replacement, we may suggest offline oil filtration. This process removes impurities and extends the life of your existing oil — all without needing a costly oil change.
It’s cleaner, smarter, and significantly more affordable.
