Fan Coil Units

A fan coil unit (FCU) is a type of heating and cooling system used in many commercial and residential buildings. It is a self-contained unit that consists of a fan, a coil, and a heat exchanger. The fan is used to move air through the system, while the coil is used to transfer heat from the air to the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger then transfers the heat to the air or to the water in the system. The fan coil unit is a very efficient way to provide heating and cooling to a space, as it is able to transfer heat from one medium to another with minimal energy loss. Additionally, fan coil units are relatively quiet and require minimal maintenance. They are also relatively inexpensive to install and operate, making them a popular choice for many homeowners and businesses.
