Owner needs reasonable notice for suite entry

Q: The superintendent in the condo where I am a director visited an owner's suite at her request to investigate the sound of water escaping, apparently from a steam line. The superintendent advised that a valve probably should be replaced and that he would have to come back with the heating contractor. The following day the superintendent and the contractor entered the suite in the absence of the owner and discovered that water was escaping onto the floor. The problem was solved by replacement of a valve. When the unit owner was advised that a master key was used for entry to the suite she became angry that entry was made without her permission. Doesn't management have the right to enter a unit without consent in an emergency?
