WVU Facilities Management provides recommendations to the campus community ahead of Winter Recess

The WVU Facilities Management team would like to remind the campus community to plan ahead before taking time off or departing for winter recess.

Before leaving campus:

  • Make sure all HVAC vents are not blocked and that personal items are not placed on or leaning against a heating unit.
  • Do not turn off HVAC heating equipment. It should remain on for cold weather protection during the break.
  • Lock and secure all doors and windows.
  • Unplug coffee makers, space heaters and other unnecessary appliances. Refrigerators should remain plugged in and turned on.
  • Turn off all lights.

Facilities Maintenance may be entering your rooms and/or offices during the winter break to complete general maintenance and filter changes. For any outstanding issues, please submit a work order. Call 304-293-HELP(4357) for emergencies.
