I performed a thorough furnace tune-up to ensure safe, efficient, and reliable operation. This included inspecting the heat exchanger for cracks and corrosion, verifying the operation of safety controls, and checking the venting system for proper draft and obstruction-free flue path. I cleaned the burner assembly, tested the flame sensor, and inspected the igniter. Additionally, I balanced the blower wheel, checked electrical connections, and tested the thermostat. I also cleaned the flame sensor and ignition components, and verified the system's operation through a complete heating cycle. The furnace is now operating safely and within manufacturer specifications.

During the service, I replaced the batteries and the filter to ensure optimal performance. I also identified that the water flow for the humidifier was excessively high, which I adjusted to the appropriate level. This adjustment will help maintain the desired humidity levels. The system is now functioning correctly and efficiently.

Upon inspection, it was determined that the air filter was excessively restrictive, causing the furnace to repeatedly cycle off due to the limit switch being triggered. I replaced the old, clogged filter with a new one, ensuring proper airflow. This adjustment allowed the furnace to operate efficiently without frequent cycling, enhancing overall performance and comfort. The system is now running smoothly, with no further issues detected.

During the inspection, I identified a leak on the vapor line near the condenser. To prevent any air or moisture from entering the system, I refilled the unit. I advised the customer to refrain from using the AC until the issue is resolved. Our team is scheduled to return on Wednesday, March 18, in the afternoon to repair the leak and ensure the system operates efficiently.

The customer approached me for assistance with a home improvement project that required financing. After evaluating their financial situation, I helped them understand the financing options available. Despite our efforts, the customer was unable to secure the necessary financing. I provided guidance on alternative funding methods and offered to assist in exploring other avenues to make the project feasible. Throughout the process, I ensured clear communication and maintained a professional approach.

I was dispatched for an unresponsive Aprilaire thermostat displaying “OFF” and a non-operational HVAC system. Upon arrival, I confirmed the thermostat was off and unresponsive. I conducted a thorough diagnostic, checking the thermostat’s power source and control circuit. I found the thermostat relies on battery power, and a depleted battery caused it to shut down. I reset the thermostat using the internal reset button, restored power, and verified battery placement. The thermostat powered on, and the HVAC system responded correctly to commands, now operating as designed. Thank you for trusting our service.

I conducted a comprehensive plumbing maintenance service. I fulfilled the customer's request by delivering two bags of salt for their water softener. I identified an issue with the tub spout in the hallway bathroom, which was not directing water properly to the shower head. I addressed this by adjusting the spout. Additionally, I discovered a leak in an outside hydrant, originating from the handle. I tightened the handle to resolve the issue, but if the leak continues, the hydrant may require rebuilding or replacement.

I delivered a set of four air filters to the customer's residence. After confirming the correct model and size, I explained the benefits and maintenance tips for the new filters. I then collected the old filters from the customer, ensuring they were disposed of properly. Throughout the process, I maintained a professional demeanor and ensured the customer understood the importance of regular filter changes for optimal system performance. The customer appreciated the thorough explanation and the efficient service provided.

Upon inspection, the drainage system exhibited an offset at 22 feet, leading to a complete blockage at 43 feet. The existing pipe traversed beneath outdoor steps and the sidewalk, complicating the repair. The primary issue was extensive root infiltration, which had caused significant backups. Each section of the pipe had a broken entry due to the roots. I meticulously cleared the roots, ensuring the pipe was free from obstructions. Additionally, I assessed and repaired the broken entries to restore proper drainage flow. The system is now functioning optimally.

I successfully completed the installation of a mini split system, ensuring optimal performance and efficiency. The process began with a thorough assessment of the designated area to determine the best placement for both the indoor and outdoor units. I meticulously installed the indoor unit, ensuring it was securely mounted and properly aligned. The outdoor unit was then installed, with careful attention to the necessary electrical and refrigerant connections. I conducted a series of tests to confirm that the system was functioning correctly, including checking the airflow and temperature settings. The job was completed with a final inspection to ensure everything was in perfect working order.

Today, I successfully completed the installation of a new water heater for a customer. The process began with a thorough assessment of their existing system and requirements. I then proceeded to remove the old unit and installed the new water heater, ensuring all connections were secure and efficient. Throughout the installation, I maintained clear communication with the customer, explaining each step and addressing any concerns. The job was completed on time, and the customer is now enjoying reliable hot water.

HP tune up

Upon arrival, I addressed an inoperable system. The homeowner had partially removed the cover, which I fully removed to inspect. I discovered the condensation pan was filled with refrigerant oil, indicating a complete loss of refrigerant. After discussing with the office, I confirmed that the unit's evaporator coil is not serviceable. I contacted a field supervisor for replacement pricing, comparing options between a similar unit and a Mitsubishi mini-split system. The Mitsubishi mini-split system is scheduled for installation next week.

I performed a thorough furnace tune-up to ensure safe, efficient, and reliable operation. This included inspecting the heat exchanger for cracks and corrosion, verifying safety controls, and checking venting for proper draft. I cleaned the burner assembly, tested the flame sensor, and performed a full combustion analysis. The blower wheel was inspected for dust, and airflow through ducts was confirmed. Electrical connections were tightened, and thermostat functionality was tested. The system was run through a complete heating cycle to ensure smooth operation.

I was scheduled to install a new kitchen exhaust system. I arrived on time, prepared all necessary tools, and began by inspecting the existing setup. After ensuring everything was in order, I started the installation process, which included precise measurements and careful wiring. Unfortunately, I fell ill and had to cancel the job midway.

Upon arrival, I conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the HVAC system, inspecting the outdoor condenser, indoor evaporator coil, refrigerant line set, blower assembly, and electrical components. The evaporator coil was found to be punctured, leading to refrigerant loss and system inefficiency. Given the severity of the damage, the coil was deemed irreparable and required replacement to restore proper operation. Further inspection revealed that the existing refrigerant line set was undersized for the system's refrigerant type and capacity, which could cause improper refrigerant flow, reduced efficiency, and increased compressor strain. To ensure optimal performance and longevity of the new coil, I recommended replacing the line set as well. The recommended repair includes replacing the evaporator A-coil, installing a properly sized new refrigerant line set, evacuating the system to manufacturer specifications, recharging with the correct refrigerant, and verifying system performance.
