Kyle TX Heating & Air Conditioning Services

Upon arrival, the homeowner stated that air was blowing inside, but no cold air was coming out. He also stated that he thinks the unit went out around the same time as the storm that blew in two nights ago. Diagnostic found that the condenser fan was spinning but I could not hear the compressor. I checked the capacitor and found that it had failed. I also noticed a loud hum coming from the contactor. I went over my findings with the homeowner and presented options for repairs. She decided to have the capacitor replaced today. I replaced the capacitor and function tested the system. The system was cooling at time of departure.

AC cool check completed on four year-old vertical Carrier heat pump. Drain line was flushed and treated. Condenser coil was cleaned. I did find the capacitor reading below manufacturer specs. I spoke to the homeowner about repair options and he chose to move forward with replacing the capacitor today. I replaced the capacitor and function tested the system. The system is cooling properly at time of departure.

AC cool check completed on horizontal Carrier system. Drain line was cleared and treated. Condenser coil was cleaned. I did find low refrigerant levels. Was able to locate the source of the leak at the Schrader core. I did replace the Schrader core free of charge today and the homeowner chose to recharge the system to manufacturer specs. No other major issues were found. The system is cooling properly at time of departure.

Performed diagnostic on the system and found the primary drain line was clogged. Water had backed up into the primary pan and was slowly overflowing into the closet. I also found the system is low on refrigerant. The outdoor contactor and fan motor are showing wear and tear as well. I spoke with the homeowner and she decided to have the drain cleaned, add refrigerant to the system, and sign up for our maintenance agreement. I cleared, flushed and treated the drain line. I then added 1lb 4oz of refrigerant and performed a leak search. I was getting inconsistent hits at the indoor coil but couldn’t determine for sure if there is a refrigerant leak. After completing the repairs, I cycled the system at the thermostat and verified the system is operational.

I spoke with the homeowner and he stated the HVAC system froze over on the weekend and they shut it off to prevent damage. I turned the system on and found that my suction saturation temperature was at 40 degrees. After the system ran for 15 minutes it would slowly drop below 34 degrees then below freezing temperature. I found the indoor coil is clogged up with dirt and causing an airflow restriction which is causing the system to freeze over. I also found the drain line and primary pan are clogged and the outdoor fan motor is showing wear and tear. I spoke with the homeowner and he chose to have the coil cleaned in place, have the drain line cleaned, and sign up on our gold maintenance plan. I vacuumed and rinsed the indoor coil as best as possible. I then cleaned the primary pan and cleaned, flushed and treated the primary drain line. I watched the system run for 35 minutes and the suction saturation temperature was at a constant 45 degrees after cleaning the indoor coil.
