If your tenant ask you to reimburse the filter cost, I think you will need to pay for it.
Rental unit that allows pet is actually hard to find and usually cost more. I'm a dog owner myself, so I'm not against pet. But don't underestimate what damage a dog could do to your apartment. My friend's dog once dig a hole thru a drywall in a day. Of course he need to repair that before he moved out his rental apartment.

The contract is over and now it is " 生約" , either of us give 1 month notice if any party want to terminate the agreement.
Frankly, those issues particular about RTA that you mentioned we never think or expect it. Now, we know what it is about and are pleased to be a cooperative landlord. At one point, we want to kick out the tenant but consider the market situation; we will try to keep them if they are not demanding. They told us they want to paint the wall as they think it is not match with their furniture/setting when we came to our unit for checking the ice-dispenser. We turned them down as we think it is a not make sense request. If they take this as an excuse to terminate the agreement, we’d let them go.
Thanks for reminding us to complaint to the Strata to see if they can do something on the air vent, at the meanwhile, we will find someone to clean it up. Hope it won't cost too much.
We decided to hire a licensed technician to see what happened to av ...

RTA will always take the side of the tenant (unless they have something super crazy or didn't pay you). Try to complaint to the Strata if the air vent is a known problem.
Sorry, but I'm on your tenant side in this case here. It is well known that RTA protects tenant. So if RTA gets involve in your case, you will have an uphill battle.
1) fridge refers to this one appliance you provided in the unit for the tenant. So if any part of that fridge is malfunctioned, for me it is reasonable to ask you to fix it. If you eventually have to replace the fridge without an ice dispenser, I think you better get the agreement with the tenant first as well.
2) dryer pipe/vent. since your own tendancy agreement doesn't mention about this, RTA will base it off their guideline which means you will have to clean out. What's a reasonable intervals? I can't say. My previous apartment cleans them once a year. You could hire technician to do that inside the house and it shouldn't cost a lot. I will just do that if I were you. Also, sounds like it is a well known problem from the builder. Has your strata brought this up with the builder? My previous apartment has an extra blower fan into the dryer pipe to reduce the build up.
Hope this gives you a different view on your case here.
