Performed diagnostic on the system and found the primary drain line was clogged. This caused some water damage on the ceiling in the living area. Also found the outdoor fan motor is showing signs of wear and tear. I spoke with the homeowner and she chose to have the drain cleaned at this time. I cleared, cleaned, flushed and treated the drain line. I also insulated the suction line better to help prevent any condensation in the attic. The system is operational at this time.

Arrived to find the system set in the off position. Customer stated the indoor unit would not run but the outdoor unit would run. During diagnosis of the system, I found a faulty fan relay switch. I also found the indoor torque booster well below manufacturer specs. I went over repair options with the homeowner and they chose to replace the fan relay and indoor torque booster. I completed the repairs and the torque booster and relay switch were replaced. The system was cooling at time of departure.

Upon arrival, customer stated that the unit was not turning on inside or outside, thermostat was set to cool. Found a blown fuse on the air handler. I checked the low-voltage wiring at the heat pump and did find two rub outs which I then repaired. Cycled the system on and checked the temperature split. Found temperature split to be 5°. I went over my findings with the homeowner and they chose to schedule an appointment with one of our project managers to look into replacing their system. The system was running at time of departure.

AC cool check completed on vertical Carrier system. Drain line was flushed and treated. Condenser coil was clean. No major issues were found. The system is cooling properly at this time.

Service diagnostic found that the evaporator coil and air handler were dirty. The system was performing poorly. I checked for leaks on the system and did not find any leaks. Options for repair were presented to the homeowner and he chose to have the air handler and evaporator coil cleaned. I cleaned the evaporator coil and air handler. I also sealed around the outside of the air handler with hard cast tape. I function tested the system and the system was running at the completion of service.

On arrival, I found that the outdoor fan motor was spinning backwards and the compressor was not pumping any refrigerant. I found that the run capacitor had failed across both the HERM and FAN terminals. I presented repair options to the homeowner and they chose to have the repairs done today. Installed a new run capacitor at the condenser, installed all new insulated wiring terminal connects, and properly secured. Cycled high voltage power to system and checked over operations. Everything is working at this time.

Performed semiannual maintenance on one straight cool AC system. Inspected all performance, mechanical and safety systems. I lowered the blower speed to match the 3 ton AC system to ensure proper heat and humidity removal. This also helped lower the static pressure of the blower to .40inWC, which is now within range for manufacturer specifications for operation. Homeowner installed a new AprilAire 213 air filter prior to us coming out. The old one she showed me appears to not have been changed out in at least a year. Verified everything was operating within manufacturer specifications for operation. Everything is working at this time.

Installed new gas furnace in closet. Rebuilt drain line and added safety switch. Added new vertical supply plenum and replaced all upstairs ducting. Sealed and hung flex and set outdoor unit. Installed Ecobee thermostat and verified system operation. Everything is working at completion of service.

Performed AC cool check and 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. I did find a dead bird inside the furnace. I removed it and checked for how it may have gotten into the furnace. I couldn’t find anywhere the bird could have gotten inside. The air filter was replaced with a client supplied filter. The condenser coil was cleaned. No major issues were found. The system was running at the completion of service.

Performed diagnostic on the system and found the outdoor capacitor had failed on the fan side. I also found the outdoor fan motor is showing signs of overheating. I spoke with the homeowner and he chose to have the fan motor replaced at this time. I replaced the fan motor and secured the compressor wiring. I then cycled power at thermostat and verified the system is operational. The system is running at completion of service.

Installed new evaporator coil fitted with new TXV metering device and new primary drain pan in the attic. Installed new liquid line filter drier. Pressure tested system with nitrogen and pulled vacuum. Cleared primary condensation drain with CO2 and primed trap with water. Sealed access holes in the supply plenum with mastic/hardcast. Charged AC with R-410A refrigerant. Tested operation of system. Everything is working at completion of service.

AC cool check completed on one Trane system. Drain line was cleared and treated. Found water was leaking from a loose coupling on PVC. I resecured the PVC free of charge today. Condenser coil was cleaned. I found the outdoor capacitor below manufacturer specs. The condenser fan motor is showing signs of overheating. Presented options for repair to the homeowner and they chose to replace the capacitor today. I completed the repair and function tested the system. The system is cooling properly at time of departure.

AC cool check completed on vertical Goodman system. Drain line was flushed and treated. Condensing coils were cleaned. I found there is no surge protection on the unit and the condenser fan motor is showing signs of overheating. I went over my findings with the homeowner. No other major issues were found. The system was cooling properly at time of departure.

Performed diagnostic and found the TXV metering device has failed. I also found the outdoor capacitor is rated for 35/5 and reading 29/5. The outdoor fan motor is also showing signs of wear and tear. I spoke with the homeowner and he chose to have the metering device replaced, the capacitor replaced, and the drain line cleaned and flushed. We Pumped down the system. Removed the old TXV metering device and filter drier. Installed new TXV and filter drier. Pressure tested the system and verified it is leak free. Pulled deep vacuum on the system. Performance and safety test was done on the system. We did add 1lb and 3 oz of refrigerant. Replaced outdoor capacitor. Cleaned, flushed and treated the drain line and verified it is flowing and there are no water leaks. Homeowner also chose to have the outdoor fan motor replaced at this time. After completing the work we verified the system is functioning correctly. Everything is working at completion of service.

AC cool check completed for a vertical Carrier system. Drain line was flushed and treated. Condenser coil was cleaned. I found buildup on the blower motor wheel. I went over repair options with the homeowner. No other major issues were found. The system is cooling at time of departure.
