A fan coil relies on chilled water, while a water-source heat pump includes its own refrigeration circuit. PTAC and packaged systems have different service requirements again. Identifying the equipment is the first step toward an effective repair.

Before arranging service

  • Poor cooling can involve airflow, controls, local equipment or a shared cooling source, so the same symptom does not always mean the same repair.
  • Seasonal changeover can limit two-pipe fan coil cooling, and similar complaints in several suites warrant property-management involvement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Condo Air Conditioning FAQs

Why Is My Condo AC Blowing Warm Air?

Can I Book Urgent Cooling Service?

Call HTS to describe the issue and confirm available service times.

Do You Work On Fan Coils And Heat Pumps?

Yes. HTS services both, along with PTAC and other condo HVAC configurations.

How Much Does It Cost To Replace A Central Air Conditioner In A Condo?

In Toronto & GTA, the average cost of installing air conditioning in a low-rise or high-rise condo is $2,500-$8,000. This average can vary depending on the size of your apartment, brand, make, and model of your existing condo HVAC system.

Can I Install A Ductless Air Conditioner In My Condo?

Yes, you can install a ductless air conditioner in a condo as long as there is access from your balcony to the desired room where the unit is meant to be installed. We offer evaluations and inspections to clients who are interested in replacing an existing or add a new ductless air conditioning or heat pump system in an apartment.

What's The Difference Between Ductless Air Conditioning & Ductless Heat Pump?

What Is The Cost Of Installing A New Ductless Air Conditioner In A Condo?

For a new ductless air conditioning system that covers about 1,000 square feet, homeowners can expect to pay an average of $2,800 of $$3800 CAD plus applicable taxes.

When Do Condos Turn On The Central Air Conditioning?


Between early May and June of each year.

If you live in a low rise or high rise condo with a central air conditioning system, the property management of your building is responsible for switching the central building HVAC system from heating to air conditioning. The property manager usually posts a notice in the building common areas to ensure all the residents are aware of the upcoming important dates.

Why Is Condo Air Conditioner Maintenance Important?

Most property management companies in Toronto & GTA schedule annual air conditioner maintenance  to ensure all air conditioning components of your condo HVAC system are working as per manufacturer criteria.
Once the switch over happens in the building, your current HVAC system will utilize air conditioning to generate cooling for the rest of the season. Unfortunately, lack of proper maintenance, mechanical wear, and tear causes systems inefficiency and sudden disruption in the condo air conditioning operation.

What Are The Best Air Conditioning Solutions For Condos?

Every condo is unique and follows engineering requirements when it comes to air conditioning systems. Fan Coils & Water Source Heat Pumps are the best energy efficient solutions in Toronto & GTA condo buildings.

When Should I Update My Condo Air Conditioner?

Typically the life span of a condo air conditioning system is between 7 to 15 years. To learn more, read our article about HVAC System Lifespan In Condos – An Expert Guide

How Do I Choose An Air Conditioning System For My Condo Or Apartment?

Due to limited space and condominium by law requirements, you only have a few choices when it comes to selecting the best HVAC system for your condo. Condo Air conditioner systems are typically connected to the building plumbing infrastructure. Make sure the unit selected is compatible with your existing system. Read our article about What Is The best heat pump System For My Condo?

How Do Air Conditioning Systems Work Condos?

Condo Air Conditioning Systems are independent or integrated into the building’s central HVAC & plumbing systems. The table below illustrates the fuel type of each system. You can also see which system is connected to the central building or independent. Regardless of the type of air conditioner system you currently use in your condo, the thermostat allows us to manage indoor air temperature using the heating or cooling settings & fan speed controls.
