Replaced the furnace burner assembly, removing the corroded burners and installing new ones, then verified proper furnace operation. Performed maintenance including cleaning the flame sensor, testing the igniter, and clearing the condensate drains and pressure ports. Confirmed the air filter is clean, temperature rise is within range, and gas pressure is set properly, with the system operating as designed.
Completed comprehensive heating maintenance visit on dual-system setup consisting of geothermal heat pump and gas furnace. Performed full seasonal tuneup per manufacturer specifications on gas furnace, inspected all geothermal system components, and verified operating pressures and temperatures on both systems. All equipment tested and confirmed operating within normal parameters.
Completed scheduled heating maintenance on Lennox furnace system. Performed comprehensive inspection including cleaning flame sensor, verifying all electrical components and connections, confirming evaporator drain and pressure switch hoses were clear and functioning properly. Inspected heat exchanger and burners which were found to be in good condition. Verified proper gas pressure settings and confirmed unit operation with 55-degree temperature rise across heat exchanger. Noted 5-inch air filter showed minor dirt accumulation but remained serviceable, with homeowner planning replacement. System operating within manufacturer specifications with no deficiencies noted.
Responded to service call for noisy condenser fan motor on York unit. Upon arrival, discovered the York condenser utilizes a separate condenser fan motor and control module configuration. Attempted to install replacement condenser fan motor but encountered compatibility issue with electrical connector not matching existing module plug. Determined both the motor and module assembly require replacement to ensure proper fit and function. Temporarily reinstalled original motor and module, which remains operational despite excessive noise, to maintain system function until correct parts arrive. Ordered compatible condenser fan motor and control module for return visit to complete repair.
Responded to no cool complaint on 6-year-old system. Upon inspection, found AC unit operating properly with adequate cooling capacity. Customer reported uneven airflow with certain vents delivering weak airflow compared to others. Investigated ductwork configuration in attic and basement areas. Determined that vents with strong airflow were supplied by proper trunk line distribution, while underperforming vents were connected via extended 20-30 foot straight runs without trunk line support. Explained that airflow imbalance was due to inadequate duct design rather than equipment malfunction. Recommended either installing additional trunk line to affected zones or adding supplementary vents to improve air distribution throughout the home.
Performed preventive maintenance inspection on 10-year-old air conditioning system and identified failing dual capacitor and condenser fan motor producing excessive noise. Replaced defective dual run capacitor and condenser fan motor to restore proper system operation. Verified all electrical connections, tested system performance, and confirmed unit is operating within manufacturer specifications.
Responded to no cooling complaint on 20-year-old heat pump system with outdoor unit failing to start. Diagnosed failed dual run capacitor with zero microfarad readings on both terminals. Replaced defective capacitor with proper OEM replacement, performed coil cleaning on condenser unit, and verified system operation. Tested refrigerant pressures and confirmed all parameters within manufacturer specifications. System restored to full cooling operation.
Responded to service call for excessive condensation on ductwork, venting system, and AC supply vents with unit running continuously. Upon inspection, found high indoor humidity levels and system operating with 64°F return air and 44°F supply air temperatures. Diagnostic testing revealed refrigerant charge was low at only 6° subcooling. Adjusted refrigerant charge to manufacturer specifications and increased cooling airflow by 10% via dip switch adjustment to address condensation issues. Verified air filter was clean and airflow was within proper range. Advised homeowner to operate dehumidifier continuously and run system fan constantly to reduce indoor humidity levels and prevent further condensation on supply vents and ductwork. System operating properly at conclusion of service with improved subcooling and airflow parameters.
Responded to no cooling complaint at main office with two units down. The newer 23-year-old unit was off upon arrival; restarted unit and performed condenser coil cleaning due to heavy dirt accumulation. Unit operational after cleaning but noted possible low refrigerant charge and fan motor wobble requiring future attention. The second unit, approximately 60+ years old and severely deteriorated, was tested with new capacitor replacement but failed to maintain operation after brief runtime. Recommended complete replacement of older unit due to age and condition.
Responded to repeat no-cool complaint with system freezing and water accumulation at furnace. Upon arrival, verified coils were clean and air filter was new. Placed system in charge mode and confirmed refrigerant charge was adequate with 12° subcooling. Identified root cause as insufficient airflow—thermostat settings showed maximum airflow for high cooling below 1200 CFM. Adjusted airflow parameters in thermostat for high cooling, low cooling, and dehumidification modes to proper levels. Tested system operation in all cooling modes and confirmed low-side pressure remained above freezing saturation temperature, eliminating freeze-up condition. Addressed secondary issue of condensate pump discharge line leak by installing hose clamp at connection point, which stopped water leakage. System operating normally with proper airflow and no freezing upon departure.
Responded to no cooling complaint on Goodman air conditioning system. Upon arrival, found condenser operating but system not cooling. Connected manifold gauges and measured 18 psi on suction side, indicating severely low refrigerant charge. Inspected evaporator coil for signs of oil indicating leak location but found no visible evidence. Noted service valve caps were missing from outdoor unit upon arrival; however, valve cores tested and were not actively leaking at time of inspection. Provided refrigerant recharge estimate to restore cooling operation, but homeowner declined service.
Performed annual plumbing inspection with no major issues identified. Customer reported slightly lower water pressure than desired. Adjusted pressure settings on both the pressure tank and pressure switch to optimize system performance. Inspected water heating system, copper piping network, circulation pump, pressure tank, and all associated valves and fittings, confirming all components were functioning properly.
Responded to service call for furnace that would not shut off. Thermostat wire had been severed during recent basement construction work when support beam was installed, causing system control failure. Located damaged wire section, repaired broken thermostat wire connections, and properly re-stapled wiring along pathway to prevent future damage. Tested and verified proper operation of both heating and cooling cycles on heat pump system. Unit now cycling correctly with thermostat commands.
Responded to no cooling complaint on 17-year-old geothermal system that was running continuously without producing cold air. Upon inspection, discovered high pressure switch wire had disconnected from the high pressure switch terminal. Reattached wire securely to high pressure switch, verified all electrical connections, and tested system operation to confirm proper cooling function restored.
Responded to no-cool call with system experiencing ice buildup on indoor evaporator coil. Upon arrival, unit had been shut down to allow thawing. Connected manifold gauges and monitored system operation, observing abnormally high refrigerant pressures. Inspection revealed severely restricted airflow due to heavily contaminated outdoor condenser coil. Performed thorough condenser coil cleaning, which restored proper airflow and normalized system pressures. Monitored system operation for 15 minutes post-cleaning with no ice formation observed on evaporator or refrigerant lines. Verified system cooling properly with normal operating pressures and temperatures.
