maintenance-free
No upkeep required
Maintenance-free describes products or systems that require little or no upkeep after installation: a maintenance-free battery, maintenance-free vinyl siding.
The term is often marketing language—few things are truly free of all maintenance, but the promise is that routine care, repairs, or replacements won't be needed for an extended period.
