Arrived at our clients home for the cooling maintenance inspection. Our client had recently replaced his air filters and did not need them changed today. We first began by inspecting if we could relocate a thermostat for Lynn in the upstairs hallway. We are able to preform the service but she declined to have it done today. We then proceeded outside to the condenser units and tested all of the electrical components for each unit. The smallest unit for the media room is struggling to cool. Our client is aware of this and is potentially interested in removing it completely and adding the ductwork to another unit. We discussed how only changing the duct work to the unit would cause stress on the unit due to the extra demand. And the better option would be to upsize the system for the entire upstairs space. The main downstairs unit passed today’s inspection and is running properly. The master bedroom unit has very high start amps. This unit is already 11 years old. I did create an estim

I arrived at our clients home for a second opinion for items found on an inspection report. The inspector identified the downstairs unit making a “loud noise” in the attic. I proceeded into the attic and turned the unit on to cool. This unit has a variable speed blower motor and on the low stages I could not hear anything. When the unit increased its speed I could not identify any loud noise outside of the units normal operation. We also turned on the upstairs unit and could not identify any noise outside of its normal operation. Everything is testing within range and there is not a loud noise identified on either units.

I arrived at our clients home for a two system cooling maintenance inspection. I began by changing all of the air filters inside the home, which our client provided today. Once all the filters were replaced, I proceeded to test and inspect the electrical components for both outdoor. Rinsed the outdoor coils as part of today’s maintenance. Once that was completed, I proceeded inside to test and inspect the blower motor and the blower wheel. Our clients had concerns for two bedrooms, receiving too much cold air. Previously, they were not using these bedrooms, but more recently , they have their grandchildren staying in the bedrooms. I did find and identified the duct work that went to these bedrooms, respectively. I did reduce the dampers for these rooms and our clients will monitor the airflow. I did also create and send an estimate to perform full system airflow to help the system. Everything is running properly on departure and our clients renewed their maintenance agreement for one m

Perform single system cooling maintenance. The system was installed in 2023. It is a communicating heat pump. I checked amps, filter, drains, electrical, thermostat, refrigerant temperature, and temperature differential. The system is cooling inside of manufacture specifications. I presented the air scrubber audio book and spoke about insulation. The customer is not interested in insulation or the Airscrubber at this time due to other projects. A price for the Airscrubber was requested for future reference.

I returned to our clients home with concerns that the unit for her bedroom was not cooling properly. She showed me that the indoor unit was responsive and pushing air but it was not cold air. I immediately requested we go outside to the condenser units. I found one of the unit breakers to be left off and immediately after turning it on it began to run and cool the bedroom. We then discussed the leak that Cesar had found and we also discussed how the coil replacement was not going to rejuvenate the system or extend its life any longer than normal. We discussed how the thermal overload is a protective function of the compressor but it still produces a lot of ware and gate on the compressor motor. She is now aware of this and would still like to move forward with the repair tomorrow.

Performed a 6 system spring maintenance ( heat pump/AC /Gas). Tasks performed. 1. Visually inspected condenser coil for debris/ dirty 2. Inspected condenser fan motor. 3. Inspected condenser fan blades. 4. Inspected/ cleaned wiring connections. 5. Tested compressor/ condenser fan motor capacitor. 6. Checked refrigerant pressures. 7. Checked compressor amp draw. 8. Checked condenser fan motor amp draw. 9. Inspected / replaced return filter. 10. Inspected return plenum for debris/ dirty,,,,,#2,4,6,7 will need a duct cleaning, return plenums are very dusty. 11. Inspected evaporator coil. 12. Inspected blower motor/ blower wheel,,,#2,6,7 are dusty , highly recommend a blower cleaning. 13. Checked blower amp draw. 14. Measured temperature differential . 15. Inspected drain lines. 16. Washed condenser unit. Found #6 low on refrigerant, proceeded to do a leak search, found it at the evaporator coil,,, this will be replaced. Outdoor unit #1 guest room capacitor outside of manufacturer specs 3

I investigated the customer’s concerns about an odor in the upstairs area. The smell is confirmed to be Dirty Sox Syndrome but it is more noticeable on the upstairs. This is because the upstairs zone has fewer ducts and more air flow. I presented the airscubber digital book and offered biocide treatment on the evaporator coil. I informed the customer that it is not a guaranteed long term fix of the issue especially if only the treatment is done.

I arrived at our clients home for a unit not cooling. Our client noticed the issue in the evening. I began upstairs and confirmed the indoor unit was running. I proceeded outside and found a burnt wire that had damaged the contactor from the capacitor. The capacitor was still testing in range. I further tested the unit because I was not getting proper voltage to the contactor. I found that the low voltage had shorted the thermostat and it was not sending the correct signal to power the outdoor unit. This most likely happened due to the contactor back feeding and damaging the thermostat. I showed all my finding to our client and he elected to replace the thermostat with a trane 824, replace the contactor and add a Hardstart kit to help the compressor. The outdoor coils were completely restricted with pet hair and debris. I did also preform a cooling maintenance today and washed the outdoor coil. Mr Bruno also provided a filter to be replaced today. We did discuss replacing air filte
