| At 2030 hours, the Po-Mar-Lin Fire Company was alerted to 688 Unionville road for a building fire. Reporting party stated they have an odor of something burning.
Upon Chief 36's arrival there was nothing evident from the exterior and established Willowdale Command.
Engine 36 then arrived on scene and crew entered the building to investigate. Captain 36 advised they had an odor of electrical and some light smoke on the second floor.
Ladder 25 arrived and ladder the building and check the roof. Rescue and Engine 25 crews assisted Engine 36 investigating the source of the smoke.
Engine 24-1 staged at the entrance to the complex at a hydrant in the event they needed to lay a supply line.
After crews searched for the source, the problem was found to be a HVAC unit in a closet on the second floor that had a malfunction when the power came back on from the storms.
Building was turned over to the property manager.
