ABSTRACT: Buildings for university institutions have always been characterized by the intense use of their facilities. However, this particularity was completely transformed with the advance of the SARS-CoV-2 (covid-19) pandemic during the year 2020. This paper aims to carry out a comparative analysis of the maintenance records of the buildings of the Federal University of Goiás, located in the city of Goiânia, state of Goiás, Brazil, during the period from 2016 to 2020, to verify the impact of this pandemic on the maintenance of plumbing systems, considering that during this period, in-person activities were minimal within the agency. For this purpose, building maintenance requests were classified and categorized. There was a decrease in the number of registrations in the year 2020, but there was no significant difference in the percentage share of requests for building systems and their facilities. There was a greater drop in demands related to sewage drainage system and smaller in those related to stormwater drainage system. Equipment subject to direct user interactions received fewer records of pathological manifestations when compared to previous years, as well as clogging in sanitary fittings were less reported.
