Service diagnostic found that the condensation drain line was clogged. Water had backed up into the secondary drain line and tripped the safety switch. Options for repair were presented to the homeowner and she chose to have the drain line cleared. I cleared the condensation drain line and flow tested the drain with two gallons of water. Clear water was observed flowing out of the drain line. I also treated the drain line. I function tested the system and the system was operational. The system was running at the completion of service.

Performed a/c tune-up on a Carrier straight cool 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. Verified compressor wiring is secure and washed the outdoor coil. I did find the outdoor fan motor showing wear and tear and leaking lubricant. No other major issues were found. The system is operational at completion of service.

Added sheet metal wyes in place of the old triangles. Removed old flue pipe and installed new one with straps for support. Sealed all duct connections with mastic / hardcast. Added 2lbs 12oz R-410A refrigerant. Tested operation of system. Everything is working at completion of service.

AC cool check completed on one vertical heat pump. Drain line was flushed and treated. Condenser coils were cleaned. I found biological growth inside the air handler. No other major issues were found. The system is cooling properly at time of departure.

Performed AC cool 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 clean and had been recently replaced by the homeowner. I cleaned the condenser coil. The condenser fan motor showed signs of overheating. The system was running and cooling at the completion of service.

Installed and sealed new supply plenums. Installed new zoning dampers and sealed. Attached all ductwork to their respective zones. Pulled and cleaned the blower wheel and blower housing. Tested the system and zone operation. Everything is operating at completion of service.

On arrival, I found the system operational. The thermostat was set to 70 and reading 70. I checked over the system and found that it is slightly undercharged with refrigerant. There is also some build up on the drain line as well, but it is currently still draining outside. The return air filter is also dirty. Repair options were presented to the homeowner and he chose to have refrigerant added to the system. I added 2lbs 3oz of refrigerant and performed a leak search on the system. I did not find any refrigerant leaks at this time. I cycled power at the thermostat and the system is operational. The system is running at completion of service.

Performed semiannual maintenance on one straight cool AC system. Inspected all performance, mechanical and safety systems. I did note that the indoor humidity levels were high (upper 60%) with an indoor air temperature of 68°. I was able to determine the Ecobee dehumidifier mode was not setup properly and was allowing for the indoor blower motor to run during the off cycle of the AC unit. Cleaned and cleared the primary drain line and washed the outdoor condenser coil to ensure proper heat transfer. Everything is working at this time.

Recovered existing refrigerant from system. Installed new compressor and bi-flow filter drier. Pressure tested system with nitrogen and pulled vacuum. Weighed in factory charge of R-410A refrigerant. Charged the system to 15 degrees subcooling per data tag. Cleared primary drain with CO2 and primed trap with water. Tested operation of system. Everything is working at completion of service.

Removed 2 sections of existing trunk line supply duct. Installed new flex duct with upsized buckets and new supply registers going to the office and the powder room. Sealed connections with mastic. Installed Carrier ductless mini split in guest bedroom. Leveled outdoor unit on new pad and installed all new wiring. Pressure tested system with nitrogen and pulled vacuum. Tested operation of system. Everything is working at completion of install.

Performed AC cool check on one horizontal Carrier gas system. Drain line was flushed and treated. Condenser coils were cleaned. All mechanical and electrical components found within manufacturer specs. No major issues were found. The system is cooling properly at time of departure.

Installed Payne 5 Ton R-454B condenser, evaporator coil and horizontal gas furnace. Installed new disconnect box and wiring for the condenser. New flue pipe and gas pipe connections for the furnace. Installed new secondary drain pan. Rebuilt primary drain and added SS2 /SS3 safety switches. Built and installed new return plenum. New supply plenum with dampers for 2 zones. Cleared primary drain with CO2 and primed trap with water. Pressure tested system with nitrogen and pulled vacuum. Installed 2 Ecobee lite thermostats. Upstairs and downstairs. Charged the system with R-454B refrigerant. Tested heating and cooling operation. Everything is working at completion of install.

Service diagnostic found the outdoor capacitor had failed on the fan side. This caused the outdoor system to overheat and shut off on thermal lockout. I also found the outdoor fan motor and starter are showing wear and tear. At the indoor unit I found the blower wheel is dirty. I spoke with the homeowner and he chose to have the capacitor replaced. I replaced the outdoor capacitor and cycled power at the thermostat. The system is now operational.

AC cool check completed on one vertical heat pump system. Drain line has been flushed and treated. Condenser coils have been cleaned. All electrical and mechanical components are within manufacturer specs. No major issues were found. The system is cooling properly at time of departure.
