Today, I conducted a comprehensive cooling tune-up on a Trane heat pump system installed in 2020. I inspected and confirmed all electrical connections were secure and free from corrosion. The blower wheel and evaporator coil were meticulously cleaned, ensuring optimal airflow and efficiency. The blower motor was tested and found to be functioning properly. Both the compressor and condenser fan motor were assessed and deemed acceptable. Refrigerant levels were checked and found to be within the optimal range. The outdoor unit was thoroughly cleaned and treated with a protective wax coating. Additionally, I recommended installing a compressor saver to enhance the system's efficiency and reliability.

Upon arrival, I inspected the system and found it was maintaining the desired temperature of 74 degrees, with the thermostat indicating satisfaction. All electrical components were functioning correctly, with amp draws within specifications and refrigerant levels in range. The compressor was louder than usual, but its amp draw and compression ratio were acceptable. The outdoor unit was dirty, so I cleaned it thoroughly and performed a function check. After ensuring the system was running and cooling effectively, I set the thermostat to 74 degrees. I attempted to contact the customer but was unable to reach them. An invoice was sent to the provided email, and the job is on hold until payment is received.

During the service, I thoroughly inspected the 1992 Airhandler, ensuring all electrical connections were secure and tightened. Although the customer did not have an extra filter on hand, I noted that the drain was clear and functioning properly. The blower motor and wheel showed slight dust and dirt accumulation, while the evaporator coil had noticeable dust and dirt build-up. A significant biological growth was found within the airhandler cabin. For the R-22 Straight Cool condenser, I checked and tightened all electrical connections, confirmed that the dual run cap was within the manufacturer's range, and observed heavy carbon build-up on the primary electrical unit. Refrigerant levels were acceptable, and the fan blades and motor were in good condition. The condenser coils were clean, and I cleared debris from the bottom of the unit, washed the condenser coils from the inside out, and waxed the top of the unit.

Upon arrival, the system was not operational, with the outdoor unit's high voltage shut off engaged due to a tripped breaker. The customer reported that the breaker had been tripping frequently. I reset the breaker, and the compressor started immediately, despite no signal from the thermostat. The control board displayed an EE code, which indicated a board failure. To further diagnose, I performed a megohm test on the compressor, revealing that the windings were shorted. I provided an estimate for the necessary repairs and left it with the customer. A comfort advisor is scheduled to meet with the customer later today to discuss the repair options and proceed accordingly.

Upon arrival, I assessed the shower system and identified the need for a replacement of the existing shower valve and trim. The customer had already supplied the necessary replacement parts, which were of suitable quality and specifications. I began by shutting off the water supply to ensure safety and prevent any leaks during the process. Next, I carefully removed the old valve and trim, taking care to preserve the surrounding fixtures. After ensuring the area was clean and free of debris, I installed the new valve and trim provided by the customer. I then tested the system to confirm proper functionality and water flow. The job was completed efficiently, leaving the shower area clean and the new valve and trim operating as intended.

We performed a comprehensive inspection and maintenance on a 2022 Miller furnace and a 2022 Payne Straight Cool unit. Starting with the furnace, we meticulously checked and tightened all electrical connections to ensure safe and efficient operation. The washable filter was clean, and the blower motor and wheel were functioning properly. The evaporator coil was in good condition, and the drain was clear and draining effectively. For the Payne Straight Cool unit, we again checked and tightened all electrical connections. The dual run capacitor was close to its manufactured tolerance but still within acceptable limits. The primary electrical unit and fan blades and motor were in good condition. The condenser coils were clean, and we cleared debris from the bottom of the unit. We also washed the condenser coils from the inside out. Refrigerant levels were slightly low due to poor return airflow, and we recommended a Micro Air Soft Start Kit or compressor saver along with a preventative cap

On 8/25/26, I identified a slight leak at a register where the duct was not properly sealed, and the interlining was exposed without insulation. I promptly sealed the leak using mastic and re-secured the insulation over the inner lining. Following the ductwork, I discovered that approximately 5 feet from the plenum, the duct was severely crushed, compromising its integrity and causing poor airflow. There was no inner lining present in this section, exacerbating the issue. I discussed the situation with Joe, who agreed to schedule a visit from an installation technician to either replace the duct or the affected section. The job is currently paused pending a suitable time for the technician to return.

The customer reported an issue with the evaporator, which Daffan replaced. Upon inspection, the piston was incorrectly installed, leading to refrigerant removal, piston correction, and a partial vacuum pull. The system was charged, but overcharged, causing high suction pressure and low superheat. After adjusting refrigerant levels, the system showed improvement but still had excess oil. The customer opted not to pay for further adjustments and expressed interest in a complete system replacement. A discussion about Comfort Advisor ensued, with the customer planning to purchase equipment and hire a technician for installation.

Upon arrival, I assessed the issue with the customer's Moen faucet, which was experiencing problems with the cartridge. After explaining the situation and the necessary replacement, I proceeded to carefully disassemble the faucet to access the faulty cartridge. I then replaced the worn-out cartridge with a new one, ensuring a proper fit and functionality. Throughout the process, I took care to minimize any disruption to the customer's daily routine. Additionally, I took the time to explain the benefits of the customer care club, emphasizing its potential to provide additional support and services. The customer appreciated the explanation and acknowledged the need to consult with his sister-in-law, who manages the household bills, before enrolling.

Our team meticulously inspected the kitchen sink strainer to identify any gaps or wear. We removed the old sealant carefully to ensure a clean surface.
