Want to get other quotes since they just spent 20k this summer, they want the furnace almost for free

Went for a service call today. Customer explained they could smell gas inside the house. After inspecting the gas valve, I noticed it wasn’t closing. After I checked for a carbon monoxide leak. There was a leak, so I red tagged the unit and shut the gas off to it. Thank you for choosing LBA services!

Static decline

Arrived to perform previously diagnosed repairs. Cleaned the mating surface for the new inducer. Mounted the new inducer to the furnace collection box. Secured the vent for the furnace to the inducer. Fired up the system and performed a combustion analysis and static pressure test. Found that the system is operating with failing static pressure. Reached out to schedule a field supervisor for Monday before noon. With homeowners approval replaced the failed solenoid valve. Tested operation of the humidifier. System is operational upon departure.

Arrived to customer’s for furnace tuneup in during the inspection I called and static pressure due to the wrong type of filter. Other than that, all other components meds within factory specs.

Arrived to remedy an inoperable furnace. Upon inspection of the furnace found that the system would try to start up the inducer nothing would happen. Tried to manually turn the inducer and found that it is locked up. Checked over the rest of the furnace to ensure system safety. Called and confirmed warranty information and part availability. Spoke with homeowner about the system. With homeowners approval had the part ordered and scheduled a time to return to install the new inducer. System is inoperable upon departure.

Happy Call

Arrived at home with Rob, and did five star, after doing so, we did inspection of toilet to figure out what was going on. After doing full inspection, we were not able to re-create the problem, which stated, which was a backing up, and all the toilets that was happening, as well as a leak. Do the fact that we couldn’t re-create the problem. We are unable to do any further work at home.

Arrived to remedy an inoperable system. Upon inspection of the system found the disconnect switch in the on position. Found that the furnace was doing absolutely nothing. Checked the breaker which was in the on position. Switched breaker all the way off and all the way on. Went over to the furnace and checked the function of the disconnect switch, and labeled the on and off positions. Pushed the door switch in and system started up as designed. Performed a few tests to ensure system is operating properly. Cycled power a couple times to ensure system will start and stop properly. Checked with the control board memory for fault codes, and didn’t find any. Switched system over to cooling and back to heat a couple times. System is operating as designed. Without a smoking gun as to why the system was not operating, determined that there was a bug in the logic on the control board.

Customer called stating thermostat was showing error for unable to ignite when calling for heat. It was found upon initial inspection that gas valve was in the off position. Technicians did duct work modifications in home earlier in year and they removed a portion of gas line to remove and install duct work. Valve was turned off to complete work and accidentally left in off position. System ran full heat cycle with no issues and good temperature split. System operating normally upon departure.

Increased communication signal between the indoor and outdoor units. Tested operations. System operating in cooling mode. Applied a firmware update. Verified refrigerant readings.

Arrived for furnace maintenance today. Checked all electrical components and they are in manufacturing specs. Did combustion analysis to make sure it’s burning properly. Carbon monoxide test was zero. Not seeing any rust or cracks on heat exchanger at this time. Blower wheel is getting dirty and needs to be cleaned. Blower wheel cleaning and renewal of membership were declined today. Thanks for choosing LBA.

Arrived to do a performance maintenance. Set up for combustion analysis and static pressure tests. Found system is operating with failing static pressure. Tested the operation of the humidifier. Replaced and cleaned filter. Performed a retest and found that the system is still operating with double the rated static pressure. Verified operation of all mechanical and electronic components in each furnace. Cleaned the flame sensor and tested its performance. Checked blower for cleanliness and to see if there is any play in the bearings. Checked systems heat exchanger to ensure proper venting of flue gas. Found that the heat exchanger is showing signs of age like, hot spots. This is caused by the system overheating while trying to heat the home. Checked for carbon monoxide in the air stream. Found flue condensation has been dripping into the basement. Spoke with homeowner about the system. Furnace is operational at this time.

Needing to rtp

Upon arrival I began checking out the furnace. First, I did a static pressure test on the system. It is rated for a maximum of .5 and the system is currently testing at .9 which is almost double the max. My Field Supervisor Nick will discuss this information with you in more detail. I checked the inducer motor running amps and it’s rated for 1.0amps and it’s reading at the maximum. The blower motor is also amping higher than it should be at 10.76amps. All these higher amperage we are seeing is due to the high static pressure on the system. I checked the evaporator coil and the heat exchanger. The coil needs to be cleaned so that air can pass through that coil easily. The heat exchanger has a lot of rust and hot spots all over and it will eventually crack and that will lead to CO leaking into the air which is not what we want to happen. I left the homeowner with Nick to go over different options. If you have any questions or concerns please contact us. Have a great weekend ahead!

Turned water back on for sprinkler system.

Today the filter changes and heating function checks were performed. There were several deficiencies that were discovered and a repair estimate for them will be created and sent to Matt.
