Performed scheduled heating maintenance on a 9-year-old furnace, inspecting the thermostat, filter, condensate drain, blower motor, inducer motor, electrical wiring, heat exchanger, igniter, flame sensor, and temperature split, with all components operating within normal parameters. Adjusted gas pressure to manufacturer specifications, opened supply vents to prevent overheating, and verified CO levels were safe; the system is operating normally.
Responded to a callback for a non-communicating basement zone sensor and inspected the zone control panel wiring, sensor terminals, and thermostat zone configuration to diagnose the communication fault. Resolved the sensor communication issue and verified the zone control and thermostat were operating properly.
Responded to callback for reported gas odor present during furnace operation following recent maintenance. Inspected the unit and located a small gas leak inside the furnace cabinet at the gas valve and supply piping connection, then repaired the leak. Verified the repair with leak testing and confirmed safe, normal furnace operation.
Arrived for scheduled maintenance on a Trane heat pump system and found it operating abnormally. Inspected the indoor air handler and outdoor heat pump unit, discovering a rodent nest and multiple chewed wires in the condenser compartment, resulting in system error codes. The thermostat displayed a "zone sensor not communicating" fault, and a return visit with an additional technician is required to locate the sensor and complete wiring repairs.
Performed a seasonal tune-up on a 13-year-old gas furnace, inspecting combustion and safety operation, which tested within normal parameters. Observed the unit's age-related wear, including worn foil tape on the supply ductwork seams, and documented the condition of the condensate drain line and surrounding components for future monitoring.
Responded to a callback for a no-heat condition where the furnace was not firing. Diagnosed the draft inducer not generating sufficient negative pressure, with the pressure switch stuck and preventing the ignition sequence from proceeding. Replaced the inducer pressure switch, restored heat, and verified safe operation with a flue gas analysis showing CO at 10 ppm, 95.1% efficiency, and normal stack temperature.
Diagnosed an intermittent no-heat condition on a Carrier furnace caused by loose, unsecured, and spliced low-voltage thermostat wiring at the ecobee smart thermostat base. Re-stripped and re-terminated all conductors and secured them properly at the thermostat terminals, then verified normal furnace heating sequence of operation. After a 30-minute run test, the system heated consistently and raised the home from 69°F to 74°F, reaching the setpoint.
Performed a complete tune-up on a 10-year-old Daikin gas furnace, cleaning the flame sensor and igniter to ensure reliable ignition and replacing the dirty 16x25 return air filter to restore proper airflow. Verified satisfactory amp draws, good wiring condition, and safe, correct operation after service. Noted that the humidifier pad needs replacement and that minor rust inside the furnace cabinet suggests past moisture exposure.
Performed seasonal start-up and tune-up of the boiler serving the basement in-floor heating system, verifying proper operation of the radiant heat circuit, and completed start-up of the newly installed furnace. Inspected the gas-fired equipment, piping, and flue connections, finding no signs of leaks or corrosion, and used a digital dual-port manometer to check gas and pressure readings. Both systems are operating properly with no deficiencies noted.
Responded to a no-heat call on a 9-month-old gas furnace and performed a full startup, observing an initial 5–7 minute thermostat call delay before the blower engaged and the heating sequence proceeded normally. Inspected the control board, ignition sequence, flame quality, and operating temperatures, and verified that the unit started and ran without issue, with no visible damage, rust, or frost at the cabinet, inducer assembly, or gas valve. Recommended seasonal furnace and AC tune-ups to maintain reliable operation.
Responded to a callback on a new installation reporting recurring fault codes, including a 487 EEV high superheat fault, with multiple compressor, low pressure, and communication faults logged due to wiring issues. Found the system low on refrigerant charge, so charged by subcooling per the heat pump charge chart, verified against the pressure chart, and added 8 lbs of refrigerant along with leak detection dye.
Performed annual backflow test on the irrigation system's Pressure Vacuum Breaker (PVB) assembly, which is wall-mounted at the exterior of the home and equipped with Wilkins shutoff valves and accessible test cocks. The assembly was confirmed testable and was tested in accordance with standard PVB test procedures. Note: the supporting galvanized riser pipe shows surface corrosion and a rusted mounting bracket, which may warrant future attention.
Completed furnace maintenance and tune-up in conjunction with tankless water heater installation. During inspection, discovered the gas valve adjustment cover had corroded onto the valve assembly, preventing proper access and adjustment. Replaced the defective gas valve to ensure safe and efficient operation of the heating system.
Responded to service call for non-functioning garbage disposal unit (InSinkErator Badger model #5-84A) in residence built in 2015. Upon arrival, confirmed disposal was jammed due to broken glass lodged in the grinding chamber. Disconnected power supply and removed disposal unit from sink mounting assembly. Disassembled unit and extracted all broken glass fragments from grinding chamber and impeller assembly. Thoroughly cleaned internal components to ensure no remaining glass shards. Reinstalled disposal unit, reconnected plumbing connections and electrical supply, and successfully tested operation. Unit reset and restored to full working condition.
Conducted on-site assessment for water heater replacement at residential property. Evaluated existing tank-style water heater nearing end of service life and inspected current gas supply infrastructure, including gas meter, copper gas line routing, and exterior venting system to determine feasibility of tankless on-demand water heater installation versus conventional tank replacement. Documented existing utility connections, gas line sizing, venting configuration through exterior wall, and available space for equipment upgrade. Provided homeowner with options for both tankless and traditional tank water heater systems, discussing requirements for gas line modifications, venting changes, and electrical upgrades that would be necessary for tankless conversion. Additionally discussed scheduling furnace tune-up and maintenance service prior to heating season as requested.
Replaced faulty solenoid on garbage disposal unit using customer-supplied parts. Customer was informed that contractor does not warranty customer-supplied materials. Unit tested and operational upon completion.
Returned to property to install inducer capacitor on American Standard furnace unit. Successfully replaced failed capacitor and verified proper motor operation. Provided estimates for UV light replacement system installation in furnace upon customer request.
Completed comprehensive pre-winter maintenance on a 6-year-old Daikin furnace system. Performed full tune-up including flushing the condensation drain, cleaning the flame sensor, and conducting thorough inspection of heat exchanger, inducer motor, and blower motor—all components found in good working condition. Tested carbon monoxide levels at 16 ppm, which is within safe operating parameters. Verified air filter condition, confirmed proper operation of 2-zone motor system, and inspected ductwork with no abnormal sounds detected. Measured gas pressure at -0.45" W.C. and static pressure at 0.33" W.C. using dual port manometer to ensure optimal system performance. Despite initial customer concern regarding persistent ticking noise, no abnormal sounds were present during inspection. System tested, tuned, and confirmed ready for heating season.
Responded to call back on newly installed garage heater where gas line pressure had dropped from 30 psi at initial installation to 20 psi.
