Fan Coil Maintenance Program

Preventive fan coil maintenance keeps Toronto condo suites comfortable, reduces leaks and mould risk, and extends equipment life. Hudson HVAC services vertical fan coil cabinets, water-loop systems, and heat recovery units with condo-safe methods and photo reporting for managers and residents.

We align with condo changeover schedules, protect finishes, and deliver clear reporting so residents and property managers know exactly what was completed and what needs attention.

Leak & mould risk cut

Pan flushing, float testing, and dry-out routines reduce ceiling damage and IAQ complaints.

Energy & comfort tuned

Clean coils and balanced airflow deliver quieter suites, faster cool-downs, and lower hydro.

Manager-ready reporting

Photo, notes, and next steps for each visit—ready for boards and resident follow-up.

Our fan coil maintenance process

Our 8-step process ensures every component is inspected, cleaned, and documented—so you know exactly what was done and what needs attention.

  1. Intake & safety lock-out: Confirm suite access, isolate power, protect finishes.
  2. Filter & grille care: Remove, clean/replace filters; wipe supply/return grilles.
  3. Coil cleaning & descaling: Vacuum, brush, and apply coil-safe cleaner; rinse while protecting electronics.
  4. Drain pan & line flush: Clear debris, treat pan, flush condensate line, test float switch.
  5. Blower inspection: Check wheel, motor bearings, vibration, and tighten mounts.
  6. Airflow & temperature check: Record delta-T, balance airflow where accessible.
  7. Water-side checks: Inspect valves, hoses, insulation, and look for seepage.
  8. Reporting: Photos, findings, and recommendations delivered to residents and managers.

Add-ons & bundles

Enhance your maintenance visit with these popular add-on services:

High-MERV Filter Upgrade

Premium filtration for allergy-sensitive residents or suites near construction. Captures finer particles for improved indoor air quality.

Drain Pan Treatment

Pan tablets and condensate line flush to prevent clogs, odours, and algae buildup. Reduces leak risk and float switch trips.

Coil Deep Cleaning

Full wash and chemical treatment for heavily soiled or neglected coils. Restores efficiency and eliminates embedded odours.

Common symptoms to service now

Don't wait until your fan coil fails completely. These warning signs indicate it's time for professional maintenance:

  • Weak airflow or hot/cold spots: Clogged filters or dirty coils restrict airflow, leaving some rooms uncomfortable
  • Musty odours or visible dust: Mould growth in the drain pan or on coils circulates through your suite
  • Water leaks or ceiling stains: Clogged condensate lines or cracked drain pans cause water damage below
  • Unusual noises: Grinding, squealing, or rattling often indicates motor or bearing issues
  • Float switch trips: Repeated shutoffs mean the drain system needs immediate attention
  • High energy bills: Dirty coils force the system to work harder, increasing your electricity costs
  • Allergy flare-ups: Poor filtration circulates dust, dander, and other allergens throughout your home
Safety note: If you see water dripping, ceiling staining, or smell mould, shut the unit off immediately and call us. Continued operation can cause serious damage.

Fan coil types we service

Our technicians are experienced with all fan coil configurations found in Toronto condos, from classic 2-pipe systems in older buildings to modern 4-pipe setups in new developments.

4-Pipe Fan Coils

Separate hot and cold loops for year-round heating and cooling flexibility.

Vertical Cabinet Units

Floor-standing units in closets or corners, typical in Toronto high-rises.

Horizontal Ceiling Units

Connected to ductwork for multi-room distribution in larger suites.

Ductless Fan Coils

Direct discharge units for single-room or open-concept layouts.
