I found the breaker tripped to the outdoor unit. I checked all electrical wiring and verified it was in good shape, then reset the breaker. I did find the compressor was pulling 70 amps on start up out of the rated 63. After further diagnostics, I found the compressor start assist had failed. This was causing the compressor to pull higher amperage which could have been the reason the breaker tripped. Repair options were presented to the homeowner and she chose to have the start assist replaced. I replaced the start assist and cycled power at the thermostat. After replacing the start assist the compressor pulled 58-59 amps on start up. No other issues were found. The system is operational at this time.

Service diagnostic found that the primary drain line was clogged. This tripped the water safety switch and shut off the outdoor unit. I also found the outdoor fan motor is showing signs of wear and tear. Repair options were presented to the homeowner and she chose to have the drain line serviced at this time. I cleaned, cleared and tested the drain line. Then verified it is flowing outside and treated the drain line and primary pan. Cycled power at the thermostat and function test the system. The system is now operational.

Installed new plywood overlay and filter base for the furnace to sit on, with 20x25 filter. Installed all new flue pipe up to the roof. New gas connections for the furnace. Installed Ecobee pro thermostat. Built and installed new extended supply plenum. Cleaned out the return chase. Sealed all connections with mastic / hardcast. Pressure tested system with nitrogen and pulled vacuum. Adjusted gas pressures for propane operation. Charged AC with R-454B refrigerant.

Performed AC cool check on two systems. Checked the electrical, mechanical, safety, and performance of the systems. I cleared the condensation drain lines and flow tested the drains with two gallons of water. I also treated the drain lines. The surge protectors on both systems are operational. The air filters were replaced by the homeowner. I cleaned the condenser coils. No major issues were found. Both systems were running at the completion of service.

I performed my diagnostic and found that the primary condensate line had backed up, tripping the emergency water safety switch. I found a considerable amount of dirt and dust inside the return air ducting. I went over repair options with the homeowner and he chose to have the drain cleared today. I cleaned and cleared the drain line until the line was clean and water was running smoothly through. Tested and verified the slope of the drain to ensure proper condensate removal. Cycled high voltage power back on and function tested the system. Everything is working at this time.

Removed existing supply plenums and zoning equipment. Built and installed new supply plenums with built in dampers for zone 1 and zone 2. Attached existing flex duct to the new plenums.

Service diagnostic found that the condenser fan motor had failed. I also found that the capacitor for the condenser unit was below value and the capacitor for the blower motor was below value. Options for repair were presented to the homeowner and he chose to replace the two capacitors and the condenser fan motor. I replaced the condenser fan motor, the condenser capacitor and the blower motor capacitor. I function tested the system and the system is now operational. The system was running at the completion of service.

On arrival, I found the system running in cool mode with a head pressure of nearly 500psi and a 40°SC. I rinsed off the coils to ensure proper airflow across the condensing unit and confirmed the system was overcharged. I went over my findings with the homeowner and they chose to have the repair done today. I recovered 3# of R-410A to return the system back to the required 8°SC value. The system was operating with a 20° temp split between return and supply plenums prior to departure. Everything is working at this time.
