Start with the condition.
Understand the scope.
A coil-cleaning proposal needs to identify the coil, its observed condition and the access available. Ask the responsible HVAC provider which cleaning and condensate-management tasks are included and which findings require other work. Confirm how results and unresolved access or drainage issues will be documented.
What may be involved
- cooling coil
- drain pan
- access panel
- collection equipment
Ask the provider to distinguish existing parts to inspect, proposed replacements, and tools, materials or reports included in the service. Confirm the work and exclusions after assessment; this list does not mean that every item will be supplied or replaced.
LOCAL RESEARCH / Winter Park
Planning your work
Winter Park's permit guide treats replacing garage doors and replacing exterior windows or doors as alterations that need a permit, while listing re-glazing windows and doors among the items that do not. It also states that starting work without a permit carries a penalty of triple the permit fee. For duct and air-handler work, agree with the provider who applies for the permit and confirm the current scope with the city, as the published guide cites an earlier Florida Building Code edition.

Before the visit
Building age and weather cannot establish duct contamination. The system itself needs to be inspected.
