San Marcos TX Heating & Air Conditioning Services

Diagnostics found the downstairs unit primary drain clogged, tripping the float switch. I also found both outdoor capacitors well below manufacturer specs. I went over repair options with the homeowner and he chose to resolve the drain line issue on the downstairs unit and replace both outdoor capacitors at this time. I completed the work and cycled the systems on. Both systems are operating at time of departure.

Installed new Payne heat pump. Installed new extended supply plenum. Installed new plywood overlay. Re used existing thermostat. Rebuilt, cleared and insulated primary drain line. Installed SS2 Safety float switch. Installed all pre existing duct work and sealed all seams with mastic. Installed new outdoor disconnect. Ran low voltage in 1/2 inch sealtite. Pressure tested lineset and pulled a vacuum. Weighed in additional charge to meet manufacturer specifications. Tested system operation. Everything is working at completion of service.

Performed AC tune-up on a Trane 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 outdoor compressor wiring is secure and washed the outdoor coil. No major issues were found. The system is operational at this time.

Performed AC 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. I replaced the high voltage wire nuts with a Wago wire connector. Also found the pressure switch wiring was rubbing out on the inducer motor. I secured the wiring to prevent any electrical damage. I also found there is no water safety switch on the secondary drain line and the outdoor fan motor is showing wear and tear. No other major issues were found. The system is operational at this time.

AC cool check completed on a horizontal gas system. Drain line was flushed and treated. Condenser coils were cleaned. I found some buildup on the blower wheel and lubricant leaking from the condenser fan motor. I also found leakage of cold air from the furnace and ducts and recommend a complete furnace and duct sealing. I went over my findings and presented repair options to the homeowner.

AC cool check completed on horizontal Carrier gas system. Drain line was flushed and treated. Condenser coils were cleaned. All electrical and mechanical components are within manufacturer specifications. No major issues were found. The system was running at completion of service.

Customer noticed the house was warmer than normal. I went through the system and found that the primary condensate line had backed up, tripping the emergency water safety switch. I also found that the outdoor run capacitor has fallen below rated value across both the HERM and FAN terminals. Customers approved the immediate repairs. I cleaned and cleared the primary condensate drain line and installed a new outdoor run capacitor. I also installed all new wiring terminal connections to ensure a proper and secure fit across terminals. I started up the system and verified operation. Everything is running at 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. Cleaned the exterior of the furnace and washed the outdoor coil. I corrected the airflow of the system and found the static pressure of the system is at .83 total static which is higher than recommended by the manufacturer. No other issues were found. The system is operational at this time.

AC cool check completed on horizontal Carrier heat pump. Drain line was flushed and treated. Condenser coils were cleaned. All mechanical and electrical components are within manufacturer specifications. UV lights still operational, surge protection still good. The system was cooling at time of departure.

Service diagnostic found that the safety switch inside the primary condensate drain line was rapidly tripping when water was flowing through the drain. The rapid start stop signal to the condenser unit had overheated the compressor. Options for repair were presented to the homeowner, he chose to have the safety switch moved to the secondary drain line. Cooled the compressor with water and installed a safety switch in the secondary drain line so that if it trips, the switch turns off the condenser and the condenser stays off. I function tested the system and the system was running at the completion of service.

Diagnostics found the outdoor torque booster dead on the fan side with burned wiring. I presented repair options to the homeowner and Hillary chose to have the torque booster replaced. I replaced the torque booster and function tested the system. The system is running at completion of service.

Service diagnostic found the outdoor capacitor failed on the fan side. The outdoor unit then overheated and shutdown. I also found the outdoor fan motor is leaking oil and the starter is pitted. At the indoor system, I found the drain line has some build up in it. I spoke with the homeowner and she agreed to have the outdoor capacitor replaced at this time. I replaced the outdoor capacitor and cycled power at the thermostat. The system is now operational.

Service diagnostic found that the drain line was clogged before getting to the condensate pump. The primary pan would then overflow and leak water into the closet. I also found the blower wheel is dirty. I spoke with the homeowner and he chose to have the drain line serviced at this time. I cleared, vacuumed and then tested the drain line and condensate pump. Verified the system is draining outside. The system is working at completion of service.

Service diagnostic found that the low voltage wiring at the outdoor unit had come loose. This was preventing any electrical signal from getting to the outdoor unit. I also found the drain line has some build up in it. I spoke with the homeowner and presented repair options. She chose to have the outdoor electrical wiring repaired. I stripped back new wire and tightened all outdoor connections. I also used electrical tape to help prevent any loose connections in the future. I then cycled power at the thermostat and function tested the system. The system is operational at completion of service.

Service diagnostic found that the thermostat had failed and was not sending any signal to the system. I also found the drain line has some build up in it which could cause a clog in the future. The outdoor capacitor is below value as well. I spoke with the customer and he chose to do the immediate repair and have the thermostat replaced. I removed the old thermostat and installed a T1 thermostat. Programmed the thermostat and cycled power. Function tested the system and it is now operational. The temperature in the home went down 5 degrees while on site.

nstalled 4 ton 2 Stage R-454B Carrier heat pump system. Installed vertical air handler with electric heat kit. Installed new plywood overlay for air handler to sit on. Built and installed new supply plenum. Sealed all connections with mastic and hardcast. Installed new disconnect box and wiring for the condenser. Rebuilt primary condensation drain and added SS2 safety switch. Pressure tested system with nitrogen and pulled vacuum. Installed Ecobee pro thermostat. Cleaned out return chase under the air handler. Cleared primary drain with CO2 and primed trap with water. Charged the system with R-454B refrigerant. Tested heating and cooling operation. Everything is working at completion of install.

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. No major issues were found. The system was running at the completion of service.

Cool check completed on two horizontal inverter systems. Both drain lines were cleared and treated. Both condensing coils were cleaned. During maintenance I found that all mechanical and electrical components were within manufacture specifications. Both systems were cooling properly at time of departure.
