    • Most installations are completed within one day, with a temporary ceiling cover installed

    Reprogramming and Commissioning of the Fan Coil Units

    Archway is actively carrying out the reprogramming and commissioning of fan coil units in members’ units where the related installation work has been completed. This process typically takes up to 30 minutes per unit and is expected to resolve the majority of reported issues.

    Access to the unit

    When proper notice of entry has been provided:

    • Contractors are authorized to enter even if the member is not present
    • Entry may not be denied for required work under the Occupancy Agreement
    • If a member has a valid reason (e.g., illness), they should contact Members’ Liaison or Archway’s Foreman as early as possible to request rescheduling

    Deficiencies The fastest and most efficient way to address any deficiencies or issues is to report them directly to the Members’ Liaison or Archway’s foreman. Prompt reporting helps ensure timely review and resolution.
