Ohio State is in the process of revising websites and program materials to accurately reflect compliance with the law. While this work occurs, language referencing protected class status or other activities prohibited by Ohio Senate Bill 1 may still appear in some places. However, all programs and activities are being administered in compliance with federal and state law.

Maintenance, Facilities and Classroom Information

Maintenance and Facilities Information

For most maintenance requests, please use the Service2Facilities website to make a request through Facilities, Operations and Development (FOD). 

For emergency requests ONLY, call 614-292-HELP (4357).

For HVAC problems, please check the Denney Hall thermostat listing [.pdf]. The problem could be caused by the thermostat controlling the temperature in your office which may be located in a neighbor's office.

Heating-Cooling Transition – FOD maintenance personnel conduct season heating-cooling transitions in April and October.  FOD works to ensure a seamless changeover, but weather variations may cause unanticipated fluctuations to interior temperatures.

Trash and recycling should be placed in the large, side-by-side trash and recycling bins in the hallway, main office (Denney Hall room 421), and/or staff lounge. The larger bins are emptied daily.

Recycle Bin

For custodial requests, please contact the Housekeeping Manager, Tod Linton by phone 614-292-HELP (4357) or email service2facilities@osu.edu. 

To make a project request or other FOD request (e.g. for signage), visit the Facilities, Operation and Development Request website.
