Semi Annual membership 2 systems. Upon arrival to the scheduled system maintenance, was informed the air handlers were in the closets and condenser units are on the roof. I pulled off the panel door to the indoor units and inspected all electrical components connections inside the air handlers, collected amp draw and voltage readings off electrical equipment, and check the units for cleanliness. The air handlers unit have started to accumulate some bio growth and will continue to get worse. The UV bulbs should be replaced to help keep the indoor units clean including the indoor coils and produce better indoor air quality. The upstairs thermostat had been giving intermittent issues, homeowner has the new thermostats we left behind and was informed to replace it at no cost for them. The evaporator coils and blower fan wheels are clean. The temperature splits are 20 degrees in cooling mode and within normal range on both units. Checked and tightened all electrical components to make sure

I returned to complete recommended repair of in place evaporator core cleaning and blower assembly cleaning. After completing the work, I noticed that the fan belt had a crack in it and I am recommending that it gets replace immediately. I provided customer with an estimate via email as the customer was not available for me to discuss with.
Second opinion. Customers evaporator core is heavily impacted out, as well as the blower assembly and compartment. The condensing coil is also slightly impacted. I provided customer with the options of repair, which is inclusive of cleaning of the evaporator coil and cleaning of the blower assembly as well as the outdoor condensing unit versus replacing.
I returned to install new Honeywell T6 programmable thermostat and rewired the AirHandler system.
Upon arrival to scheduled system maintenance I was shown to a A/H unit located veritcally in a closet space. Pulled panel doors off the unit to inspect all electrical connections, collect electrical readings and check the evap coil for cleanliness. Evaporator coil is clean with pictures uploaded to ST. All electrical components connections are secure and readings are within range of specifications. I am recommending some type of UV purification for the air handling unit inside to negate biological/microbial growth build up to keep the system clean. No attic access to view duct work at this time. Collected temperature differentials in cooling mode, and verified functions in the heating mode. In the cooling mode had a 20° delta T. And then the heating mode had 82° at the supply Plenum. Went to the side of the building to the C/U to verify system refrigerant charge, inspect all electrical components connections, and collect electrical readings. Outdoor unit is not surge protect
Upon arrival to scheduled system maintenance I was shown to a A/H unit located horizontally in the attic space. Pulled panel doors off the unit to inspect all electrical connections, collect electrical readings and check the evap coil for cleanliness. Evaporator coil is clean at this time with pictures uploaded to service titan. All electrical components connections are secure and readings are within range of factory specifications.

Called out today for a no heating call on an eight year old system. Property owner stated that the system wouldn’t reach to the desired setpoint on the thermostat would just run for hours. Upon inspection, I found a 10kw heating kit that was only operating on one bank. One of the banks inside of the heater kit has melted due to age/overuse. This heater kit needs to be replaced to restore, proper heating capabilities to the commercial space. Completed for system inspection found a well working system and cooling mode. I did notice that the dual run capacitor on the outdoor unit is running below factory rated capacitance, and should be changed out to avoid breakdown of the outdoor equipment. Property owner agreed, and would like to do the heating kit installation as well as the capacitor change out at the same time whenever the heater kit is available. The office should reach out to schedule an appointment to return to get these repairs completed. I spoke to property owner on site
Upon arrival to quoted repair, I was showing to an air handling unit located in the garage space that needed a fan cleaning. Upon starting the cleaning, I noticed the evaporator coil and surround electrical components were pretty impacted with growth build up. I recommended to the homeowner that we do a complementary cleaning of the blower wheel and install a pure air XUV light system inside the A/H cabinet to negate the growth. This UV light comes with a complimentary cleaning of the evaporator coil as well. Fully sanitize the inside of the air handler cabinet, pulled out fan housing, disassembled and fully cleaned and sanitized the fan housing and fan. Wheel. Disassemble the rest of the air handler cabinet to clean the evaporator coil. Cleaned and sanitized the evaporator coil as well as cleaned and sanitized the entirety of the air handler cabinet. Reassembled the system and started the units in the cooling mode. System is operating very well in all modes at this time. Left the

Immediately pulled panel doors to inspect all electrical components connections, collect electrical readings and check the evaporator coil for cleanliness. Evaporator coil is clean with pictures uploaded to ST. All electrical components connections are secure and all readings are running within range of factory specifications. Collected a temperature differential in the cooling and heating modes and had over a 21° Delta T. Spoke to the homeowner about the systems impacted blower wheel which is cutting down the system’s efficiency significantly. I highly recommended pulling this wheel and having it cleaned to ensure less loss in the system’s efficiency. Homeowner agreed and would like the cleaning to be scheduled for the second week of January. Going along with the cleaning I’m also recommending installing UV purification inside the A/H cabinet to prevent the return of th
Upon arrival to scheduled multi system maintenance (4) I was shown to two A/H’s located in the attic space as well as two A/H’s located in the kitchen closet and the front mother in law suite. Completed full inspection on all A/H’s. Pulled off panel doors to inspect all electrical components connections, collect electrical readings and check the evaporator coils for cleanliness. All electrical components connections are fully secure and all readings are running within range of factory specifications. All evaporator coils are very clean with pictures uploaded to ST. Each A/H is equipped with a Pure Air X UV, oxidizers, and EAC’s that are all fully functional at this time. Changed all EAC filter media as well as changed all customer supplied filters at filter back return grills. We did use basically the last of the EAC replacement pads so we are going to order 2 more sets to ensure enough media for this coming year. (1) 24x18, (1) 24x24. I did also notice the newest system locate
Customer concerned about unit not cooling properly. Customer has mentioned the thermostat is blank and will start again automatically than turn off again. Checked thermostat calibration and filter location. Customer has replaced filter. Checked blower motor operation and inspected equipment cabinet. Checked safety float switch and inspected drain line. The safety float switch is tripped with water and drain line is clogged and stopped unit from cooling. Checked blower motor operation and inspected evaporator coil condition. The coil is clean and free of debris. The air handler unit has existing elite uv light that is dim and not very luminous. Uv was installed 6/2021. Recommended uv light probe to be replaced and have full effect on germicidal uv light and luminous. Checked refrigerant levels and check test start up components. The capacitor has tested good and refrigerant pressure is working properly. Recommend new safety surge protector on condenser unit to prevent voltage spikes an
Customer noticed staining on the ceiling near where the air handler is above in the attic about 2-3 weeks ago. I visually inspected attic, space above stains and found a 3 to 4 foot portion of exposed uninsulated PVC. Because the PVC is in a horizontal position it is prone to sweat when the attic space is much hotter than the ice cold water flowing through the drain line. There is evidence where the drain line meets the wooden beam of water, stains, and the water stains are directly above the staining in the ceiling. The water followed the path of least resistance about a half a foot away, and dripped down above the ceiling, causing the staining. While visually inspecting the air handler and drain, I also looked inside of the air handler cabinet. The evaporator coil is fairly clean. However, I still suggest some type of indoor air quality unit to help keep the quality of air in the home, and the inside of the air handler and duct clean. I created an estimate for today’s repair with a
Upon arrival to scheduled system maintenance I was shown to a traditional split system located in the bedroom closet. This is a 23y/o system. Opened up the panel doors to inspect all electrical components connections, collect electrical readings off all electrical equipment and check the evaporator coil for cleanliness. Evaporator coil is lightly impacted. Pictures uploaded to ST. I am recommending a clean in place to help ensure proper airflow in the system to avoid potential breakdowns. All electrical components connections are fully secure and all readings are running within range of factory specifications. With the amount of growth built up in the air handler cabinet I am recommending some type of UV purification to avoid this growth buildup. This buildup can cause premature breakdowns in the equipment due to gunking up electrical components, this can also affect the homes, indoor air quality. I added estimates for both UV purification systems we offer to view pricing. Went ou
Upon arrival to quoted system repair I was shown to a C/U on the roof that had very exposed low voltage wiring, and a contactor that was burnt and pitted. Pulled out all old low voltage wiring splices, cut apart and pulled back to get a hold of new wiring, connected back to factory specifications with wire nuts and ensured all wires were secure before electrical taping to ensure all wiring wouldn’t be exposed to the outdoor elements. Replaced the C/U’s high voltage contactor and rewired to factory specifications. Went back down to the indoor unit and put power to the air handler. Started the system up in the cooling mode and verified proper functions. This system is operating well in the cooling mode at this time. I spoke to the homeowner over the phone and collected payment/signatures for todays visit. She mentioned that a different property of hers had just had a duct inspection but she is wanting a second opinion on the state of the duct work. I informed her that the office s
