HVAC
HVAC stands for heating, ventilation, and air conditioning. An HVAC system is used in indoor settings (generally residential or commercial buildings, but can include vehicles etc) to maintain and control air temperature and humidity.
Joint venture (JV)
The term joint venture has no specific legal meaning under UK law. It is essentially a commercial arrangement between two or more parties who agree to pool their resources for the purpose of accomplishing an intended project (or other business activity). It describes many different types of situations that range from structural arrangements that create or change the economic control of a legal entity, such as joint venture companies or partnerships, to non-structural arrangements such as contractual joint projects and informal (undocumented) collaborations. A joint venture can be formed for one specific project, period or a continuing business relationship.
Maintenance expenses
Those expenses incurred by the life company in maintaining all of its in force policies. The total expenses of the life company are divided up in either acquisition or maintenance expenses.
