We are not sure what the life span is of the ballscrew.  We have tested it for over 3 years without any issues

Fan on the controller is a ball bearing fan and should last 3 years

Thermostat should last for a year or more.

 

Q: As a distributor, what kind of spares would I need?

 

Controllers and driver boards

Fans

Thermostats
