Kyle TX Heating & Air Conditioning Services

Heat check completed on a six-month-old vertical heat pump system. Both indoor and outdoor units are clean and all electrical is within manufacture specs. No issues found.

Heat check completed on a horizontal gas furnace. I did find that the static pressure in the system is higher than manufacture recommendations. This is putting added stress on the system and its components. No other major issues found.

Performed a heater tune-up on one American Standard heat pump system. Checked the electrical, mechanical and performance systems of the unit. Cleared, cleaned, flushed and treated the drain line and cleaned the exterior of the air handler. The filter was replaced recently and is still in clean condition. I did tape around the filter to prevent any bypass. I washed the outdoor coil and verified the compressor wiring is secure. The system is operational at this time.

Performed semiannual maintenance on one split system heat pump and one mini split system. Tested and verified everything was operating within manufacture specifications for operation. Everything is working at this time.

Performed two heater tune-ups on a Carrier heat pump system and on an American Standard heat pump system. Checked the electrical, mechanical and performance systems of the units. Cleared, cleaned, flushed and treated the drain lines and cleaned the exterior of both air handlers. I did find the starter is pitted at the contacts and the capacitor is starting to lose value on the American Standard system. I spoke with homeowner, and he chose to have them both replaced at this time. I replaced both components and cycled power at the thermostat. Both systems are operational at this time.

Performed a heater tune-up on a Goodman heat pump system. Checked the electrical, mechanical and performance systems of the unit. Cleared, cleaned, flushed and treated the drain line and cleaned the exterior of the air handler. Washed the outdoor coil and secured the compressor wiring. I also replaced the insulation on the suction line which was deteriorating. No other major issues were found, and the system is operational at this time.

Completed a dryer vent cleaning. Ran the brush the full length of the dryer vent pipe multiple times. Then ran the camera to ensure that the vent was cleaned out. Also cleaned out the connection piece between the dryer and the wall and vacuumed the area.

Performed the heater tune-up on a Carrier gas furnace system. Checked the electrical, mechanical and performance systems of the unit. Cleared, cleaned, flushed and treated the drain line and cleaned the exterior of the furnace. I found that the furnace is not moving enough airflow for the tonnage of the system. My static pressure was around 1 in w.c.. No other major issues found.

Performed the heater tune-up on a Carrier gas furnace system. Checked the electrical, mechanical and performance systems of the unit. Cleared, cleaned, flushed and treated the drain line and cleaned the exterior of the furnace. I replaced the high voltage wire nuts with a Wago wire connector. No major issues were found, and the system is operational at this time.

Performed the heater tune-up on an American Standard heat pump system. Checked the electrical, mechanical and performance systems of the unit. Cleared, cleaned, flushed and treated the drain line and cleaned the exterior of the air handler. Washed the outdoor coil and verified the compressor wiring is secure. I found that the outdoor contactor is pitted at the contacts. I spoke with homeowner, and he chose to have it replaced at this time. I replaced the contactor and cycled power at the thermostat. No other major issues were found. Both of the surge protectors and the air purifier are working. The system is operational at this time.

Heat check completed on a vertical heat pump system. I found the outdoor contactor is reading low resistance. I presented my findings to the homeowner along with a repair option for the contactor; the homeowner accepted. The contactor was replaced and the system cycled. The unit is heating properly at this time. No other major issues found.

Performed heat check. Checked electrical, mechanical, safety, and performance of the system. I cleared the drain line and flow tested the drain with water. I also treated the drain line. The surge protection and system sterilizers are operational. No major issues were found, and the system is running at the completion of service.

On arrival the customer informed me that there has been a humming noise coming from the air handler. I began my check of the system and found that the return air filter was slightly bent which was causing air to bypass the filter and vibrate in the filter base. I then performed a heater tune-up on the Carrier heat pump system. Checked the electrical, mechanical and performance systems of the unit. Cleared, cleaned, flushed and treated the drain line and cleaned the exterior of the air handler. Washed the outdoor coil and verified the compressor wiring is secure. No other major issues were found. All surge protectors and UVC lights are working. The system is operational at this time.

Performed a heater tune-up on a Carrier electric heating system. Checked the electrical, mechanical and performance systems of the unit. Cleared, cleaned, flushed and treated the drain line and cleaned the exterior of the air handler. Washed the outdoor coil and verified the compressor wiring is secure. All surge protectors are working. No major issues were found, and the system is operational at this time.

Performed semiannual maintenance on one heat pump heating system. Inspected all Performance, Mechanical and Safety Systems. Tested and verified everything was operating within manufacture specifications for operation. Everything is working at this time.

Heat check performed on a horizontal heat pump system. After checking through the entire system, I found that the outdoor capacitor is well below manufacturer specs. I presented an option to replace the capacitor, and the homeowner has accepted. After replacing the capacitor and finishing up the heat check, the system was cycled and is heating properly at this time.

Service diagnostic found that the flame sensor for the furnace was dirty. Buildup on the flame sensor was preventing flame detection and shutting down the system. I function tested the system and the furnace came on. The hot surface igniter achieved flame ignition but the furnace immediately shut down due to the flames not being detected. The system then gave a code of 34 ignition proving failure. Options for repair were presented to the customer, and she chose to have the flame sensor cleaned. I cleaned the flame sensor and the ignition area in the furnace. I then function tested the system again and the system is now operating normally.

Service diagnostic found that the hot surface igniter had rubbed out and shorted. The wiring for the igniter was broken and the igniter tip was cracked. This prevented ignition of the gas for the furnace. Options for repair were presented to the customer, and he chose to have the igniter replaced and to sign up for maintenance. I replaced the hot surface igniter and adjusted the gas pressure to 3.5 WC. The system was running at the completion of service.

On arrival, I found the Ecobee thermostat not properly wired and programmed for the base model heat pump. Corrected programming and fixed wiring at unit. Tested system and verified operation. Everything is working at this time.

Installed new Carrier gas system. Installed Ecobee Pro thermostat. Installed new secondary drain pan. Rebuilt primary drain with p-trap and SS2 safety float switch. Cleared condensate drain and tested with water. Built and installed new supply and return plenums. Sealed all connections and all buckets with mastic. Pressure tested line set and pulled a vacuum. Installed new disconnect/whip. Installed new hood for line set going outside. Added 10oz of R-454B refrigerant to account for line set length.
