Humidifier is unhooked. You will call us when you get back in town.

Customer called in about not having water to her fridge after we serviced her furnace the other day. Upon arrival, customer stated that after we left the other day, humidifier started running water like crazy and got all over her furnace. Customer shut the water off to humidifier which also ties into her fridge line. Was able to disable humidifier and turn her water back onto fridge. Customer will be leaving for extended period of time before end of day. Informed customer that would recommend turning water off to house if leaving more than a couple of days to prevent any unexpected water line leaks or breaks anywhere in the house.

Today I arrived and was shown where the make-up air unit is that is not heating. I checked the control box and confirmed that there is a signal leaving it for heating mode and the line voltage is in the proper range. The fan does operate however the burners did not light. The breaker box for this equipment was located and the unit was reset. It did not return to heating. Due to the location of the equipment (roof height) a scissor lift will need to be brought in for access to the make-up air unit. Information was gathered and relayed for a diagnostic quote that includes scissor lift delivery, drop off and usage. Thank you, Jon

Arrived for furnace check today. You first told me that it was running loud. I did make some adjustments to system to help with that. Static is passing. Heat exchanger looks good. Carbon monoxide test was 0ppm. All electrical is in range. Humidifier is working. I replaced furnace filter. System is running at departure. Thanks for choosing LBA. Happy Thanksgiving!

Customer called back stating he has another leak in the garage. Same area we just installed a new shower valve and drop ear. Customer stated that after his wife took a shower, water was coming down thorough garage ceiling. Had customer run water and verified that it wasn’t our repair we just made. Had customer running water for a few minutes and no leaks appeared. Checked shower pan and see a lot of gaps between tile and pan. Customer will caulk inside shower. Informed customer that if that doesn’t resolve the issue, it’s going to be the shower pan itself.

11-21-25 Spoke to Gary on site The two Modine unit heaters on the east end of the warehouse are not heating. The blower motor is running on both units. Thermostat is in the center. East warehouse area. One thermostat operates both units. Both units are melted in the corner of the warehouse standard cage on a Ford truck does not work. We would need to use a narrow scissor lift to access the backside of the burner area. 32” I did access the front of the unit heaters. I found the draft safety switch on both unit were tripped The panel to access these safeties has been moved to the side so this is happened before. I did reset both safeties both units came on and are running at this time. I didn’t feel any bad from either one of the units and I did also go up on the roof to take a look at the flue cap. Both have a high wind cap on them that it’s in good shape. I spoke to Gary concerning what I found they’ll keep an eye on it. If they have other problems with the units, we will need to

11-18-25 Classroom EG32 computer Lab2 and the server room AC system has frozen up. Found the blower wheel on the carrier furnace has blown apart and the motor is extremely hot Carrier serial 1201A12388 Ordered and picked up new blower wheel and 3/4 Hp blower motor with run capacitor. The OEM blower motor was not available in any of this stores locally and was also at least a week out. So we installed a non-OEM motor. This was my decision. Install all the new blower wheel and motor check for proper rotation and operation. System is working at this time.

Went for a maintenance call today for heat. Tested for static pressure system is passing when in heat. All electrical components are passing for manufacture specifications. Did a combustion test is within range. Inspected heat exchanger no cracks/leaks were detected. Checked temp split and is passing. Cleaned flame sensor and pressure switch hose.

Did a combustion test and verified the cracked. Will red tag system and will not recommend to have on until heat exchanger replaced. Thank you for choosing LBA services-Johann

11/13/25 - Completed a full heating maintenance on two RTU’s. The filters were changed, the heat exchangers were checked, and proper operation was tested. Overall, both units were in good condition and they were both running well. The only issue found is that the larger carrier RTU has a worn AX49 belt that is also starting to crack, so it will need to be replaced.

Down stair bathroom was cleared before I arrived. Upstairs master bathroom cleared drain. Reccomended pop up assembly with bigger tailpiece if issue is reoccurring

I ran the system in heat and it trip the high limit. I check all components from the broad and everything was receiving the proper volts for everything to run. I found that the blower motor was not working. I tested for voltage at the blower motor and it was received the right voltage. This said the blower motor has failed in this unit and needs to be replaced. I sent info to Rick to email quote to Doug to be approved.

During maintenance today it was discovered that the blower motor capacitor in the west unit heater was underperforming. This capacitor was replaced with a new and tested capacitor. Thank you, Jon

Resent estimate to customer

Today heating maintenance was performed on two unit heaters and two rooftop units. The west unit heater was not operating when I arrived. This was corrected by cleaning the flame sensor which is part of the unit heater maintenance process. This unit also has an underperforming capacitor. Verbal approval was granted for it’s replacement that will occur today. Both rooftop units have a major deficiency with the east unit having multiple components that are recommended to be addressed. These were documented and forwarded for repair quotes. All filters were replaced today and checklists for the maintenance were completed. Thank you, Jon
