On arrival I spoke with the homeowners, who informed me that they felt the east side system was blowing warm air at times and was not cooling properly. I found the primary drain line was clogged and the water was tripping the water safety switch. This was shutting down the outdoor unit and preventing the system from running long enough to remove heat and humidity in the home. It was about time for the homeowners summer maintenance so I completed it today. I performed an a/c tune-up on both Carrier heat pump systems. Cleared and treated both drain lines as part of the tune-up and at no charge to the homeowner.

Diagnostics found the copper line in the attic used as the primary drain coming off the condensation pump had a pinhole leak, which was dripping all the way down to the garage floor next to the unit. I went over my findings and the homeowner has approved the repairs. I cut out a 5 foot section of copper where I believe the leak was starting and replaced 12 foot of clear rubber hose to resolve the issue. Once repairs were done I did have the homeowner pour water into the condensation pump to verify no leaks coming from the repaired section. No issues were found with the air conditioner itself. The system was running at completion of service.
