Maintenance Schedule?

Have you drawn up a Maintenance Schedule for your BCC?

BCC 116 is over a year old and I’ve decided I need to be more
systematic about maintenance. I have started drawing up a schedule,
but I thought that perhaps someone has already invented the wheel and
even done it better than I would. Hence my query.

Of course, not all BCCs are the same, so not all items on a
maintenance schedule would be in common.

Below is my first try at a schedule, just concentrating on the
Plumbing system. I’d be v glad to hear if anyone has a schedule to
share.
