A chilled water fan coil unit (FCU) works by transferring heat from the air passing over the internal heat exchanger to the chilled water passing within. Cold water is supplied by a chiller unit, or reversible heat pump, which is installed in a central plant room or on the roof of a building.
Next, the chilled water circulates through a pipework distribution system to the heat exchanger (coil) within the fan coil unit. Fans within the unit then draw air over the exchanger containing the cold water cooling the air, which is finally dispersed into the desired space to provide the occupants or building users with comfort cooling.
In the summer, this building uses chilled water and in the winter the building uses hot water which gets distributed to these fan coil units. There is an electrical heater installed for those cold off season days while the chiller is in operation.

Its like they engineer these things to make them impossible to service 😂
You spend a lot of time at that hotel fixing the fan coils. You should have your own suite. Thxs for the vids!
Penthouse
I definitely do. My main spot. I really need a room there for sure. Haha thanks for watching!
@@billyhorton5779 I need me one of those! 😂😂😂
Company I used to work for we did work for a nursing/assisted living home. All their “apartments” if you will had old carrier fan coil units that were electric heat straight air. I carried a box of those 24v relays and the sequencers they used. 99.9% of the time if no heat it was one or the other lol.
Real life HVAC / R loving it warts and all, keep them coming JMT 💯💥💥💥👍👍👍
The real life of an HVACR tech ⚡️ Glad you're loving the videos 😁 I'll keep em coming 💯 Thanks for watching!
Great Video. Have a nice weekend and Thanksgiving. Thank you for sharing
Love the sound of success 😊
Love your videos. Great content 👌
Man the effort to check them ,just replace them
Very Thorough.. 🫡🫡🫡
Well done brother once again man😎🦾
Another faulty fcu. Seems like you can’t get rid of them :D
Just another day 😂 It's ok, they pay my bills 😁 Thanks for watching!
Another fan coil unit its a beautiful thing cash is the bag hotel style 😂
That dirty filter......"dude!"
The new filter......"That's a beautiful thing!"
Must have a share in that bldg by now!
I wish! Thanks for watching! 🔧⚡️
Oh yeah, air comfort restored.
JMT: Look at this filter
Me: holy s#*t
As a engineer in a hotel who takes care of all fcu and ahu I’m disgusted by those units.
I would also like to add I love the vids you helped me alot when I first started
78 here in Florida
38 here in New York 😂 I wish I was in Florida! Thanks for watching 🔧⚡️
Yes I know I'm a retired oil burner mechanic from long Island. I worked in all 5 boroughs and on long island. I know your pain parking and working in Manhattan. Snowbirding now, no more winters for me lol.
Long did this take mate?
Glue a magnet to the back of your meter.
Is that normal to have to different voltage heaters in those fan coil units?
This call is a mess… how much is a filter and how much do they pay rent? Lord where’s the maintenance
Great vid and info but dude you makin me dizzy with the filming.... :P
What supply house or vendor did u pick up the thermal overloads?
I picked these up at a small supplier in my area which was walking distance from where I was working. "Economy refrigeration & Ventilation supply". They are great and got what you need for good prices. Thanks for watching!
😻💚💜💚
💜🔧⚡️
Where are you guys located ?
I got made redundant Thursday
23 years and who would not fancy new york as a new option
I couldn't do 1 day as jumper man 😂
Kinda odd they would have heat strips up there.
Why do you say that? Thanks for watching! 🔧⚡️
I would have thought it would have been hot water or steam. @@JumpermanTech
Hurry up and get that heat on and working! Your mayor, Eric Adams, needs to get them migrants out of the cold ASAP! Money is not a problem!
They can wait
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I’m starting to think where you at there in New York is some of the worst let go equipment around the country. Pitiful
