Kyle TX Heating & Air Conditioning Services

I performed a complete AC maintenance inspection of the system. I inspected all high- and low-voltage wiring and connections and verified that everything was properly tightened and secure. I inspected the blower motor and assembly. I flushed the primary drain line with hot water and CO₂ to ensure proper drainage and found no signs of blockage or restriction. At the outdoor condenser, I inspected the run capacitor and verified that it was within the manufacturer’s specified range. I also inspected the contactor and found no signs of excessive wear, pitting, or arcing. The condenser coils were thoroughly washed and cleaned from both the inside and outside to ensure proper airflow and heat transfer. I checked the system’s refrigerant pressures and found them to be within the manufacturer’s specifications. After completing the maintenance, I allowed the system to operate for approximately 15–20 minutes and verified that the system is operating properly and cooling at this time.

Performed AC cooling check. Checked the electrical, mechanical, safety, and performance of the system. I cleared the condensation drain line and flow tested the drain with two gallons of water. I also treated the drain line. The air filter was ready to be replaced. I cleaned the condenser coil. No major issues were found. The system was running at the completion of service.

At the outdoor condenser, I inspected the run capacitor and verified that it was within the manufacturer’s specified range. I also inspected the contactor and found no signs of excessive wear, pitting, or arcing. The condenser coils were thoroughly washed and cleaned. I checked the system’s refrigerant pressures and found them to be within the manufacturer’s specifications. I allowed the system to operate for approximately 15–20 minutes and verified that the system is operating properly and cooling at this time.

Diagnostics found the low-voltage fuse burnt. When I arrived, the homeowner had already replaced the fuse and disconnected all low-voltage wires at the thermostat and air handler. Once all wires were reconnected, I was able to determine which wire was popping the five amp fuse. I also found the outdoor coil very dirty, the outdoor torque booster very low on charge, and the outdoor contactor buzzing, I also saw charring and pitting. I went over my findings and repair estimates with the homeowner and he chose to only have the critical issue resolved today. Once the system was rewired, I function tested the system. The system was cooling at completion of service.

AC cool check was completed on a horizontal straight cool system. Drain line was flushed and treated. Outdoor coils were cleaned. All mechanical and electrical components were checked, along with refrigerant levels. Spoke with the homeowner about adding a French drain to alleviate the water around the condensing unit from the drain line. He chose to move forward with installing the French drain. French drain was successfully installed. PVC was rerouted at homeowners request. I did verify proper slope and insured the system was draining before departure. The system is running at completion of service.

AC cool check was completed on a vertical straight cool communicating system. Drain line was flushed and treated. Outdoor coils were cleaned. All mechanical and electrical components were found within manufacturers specifications. Refrigerant levels were also found at proper levels. After completing the maintenance, I did call the homeowner to visit with her about all findings. The unit was on and cooling properly at time of departure.

I performed an AC cool check on the HVAC system. I inspected all high- and low-voltage electrical connections and verified that they were properly tightened and secure. I inspected the blower wheel and found no significant buildup or signs of biological growth. The condensate drain line was flushed with CO₂ and warm water to ensure proper drainage and verify that there were no blockages. The run capacitor was tested and found to be within the manufacturer’s specifications. The contactor was inspected and showed no signs of excessive pitting or arcing. I cleaned the coil both inside and outside to remove any buildup and help maintain proper airflow and system efficiency. Refrigerant pressures were also checked and found to be within the appropriate operating specifications. After completing the maintenance, I ran the system and verified that it is cooling properly at this time.

Diagnostics found the primary drain line completely clogged, sending water into the float switch which was killing control voltage to the outdoor unit. I also found the outdoor torque booster below manufacturers recommended charge. I did go over all findings with the homeowner and repair options. She chose to have her drain line cleared, flushed, and treated. After clearing, flushing, and treating the drain, I cycled the system on to verify proper operation. The system was cooling at completion of service.

AC cool check was completed on a horizontal straight cool system. Drain line was flushed and treated. Outdoor coils were cleaned. All mechanical and electrical components were examined. Refrigerant was also checked. I did find the blower motor leaking lubricant. I went over my findings and repair options with the homeowner. At this time, she has opted to have her blower motor replaced. I replaced the blower motor and cycled the system on to verify proper operation. Before leaving, I made sure the disconnect was in and the thermostat was set to the homeowner's preference. The system was cooling at completion of service.

Performed a semi-annual maintenance inspection on the HVAC systems. I inspected all high- and low-voltage electrical connections and verified that they were properly tightened and secure. I inspected the blower wheels and evaporator coils and found no significant buildup or signs of biological growth. The condensate drain lines were flushed . The run capacitors were tested and found to be within the manufacturer’s specifications. The contactors were inspected and showed no signs of excessive pitting or arcing. I cleaned the outdoor condenser coils, both inside and outside to remove any buildup and help maintain proper airflow and system efficiency. Refrigerant pressures were also checked and found to be within the appropriate operating specifications. The systems are cooling at completion of service.

Upon arrival, I found the 24-volt fuse blown. I inspected the system to determine the cause and found that the float switch was functioning properly and the thermostat was operating as intended. While troubleshooting the low-voltage wiring to the condenser, I found that the fuse was blowing when the condenser signal was energized. During a visual inspection of the condenser wiring, I discovered that the pressure switch wiring was arcing against the copper refrigerant line, causing the 24-volt fuse to blow. I repaired the issue by insulating the affected wiring and installing a piece of Armaflex around the copper line to prevent further contact. I then secured the wiring away from the refrigerant line with zip ties. After completing the repair, I restored power and operated the system. I monitored the system operation and checked the refrigerant pressures, which were within the manufacturer’s specified operating range. No additional issues were found.

Diagnostics found the critical issue of a failed outdoor torque booster. While diagnosing system, I did also find a dirty evaporator coil. I went over my findings and repair options with the homeowner and she chose to have the outdoor torque booster replaced today. After the torque booster was replaced, the system was cycled on to verify proper operation. The system is cooling at completion of service.
