Completed heat tune up for 80,000 BTU communicating Daikin furnace. Homeowner will order replacement feed tray and housing for Aprilaire 700 humidifier. Replaced 16x25x1 filter Inspected burners, heat exchanger, inducer assembly, pressure switches. Cleaned flame sensor and verified flame rectification circuit Ignitor in good condition verified ohm reading. Confirmed proper manifold gas pressures Inspected wiring, controls blower motor has surge protection. I notic d that because the HVAC drain terminates at the sump and the radon mitigation system is pulling from sump, there is a vacuum on the hvac drain. The homeowner has struggled to keep radon under ideal levels. I left estimate to install 115V condensate pump, add a receptacle for pump, repipe the humidifier to new pump and run new vinyl tubing to the standpipe of water treatment system. See photos. This will isolate the hvac drains from the radon mitigation system. *Because the new pump will be outside the equipment pan I als

Found error code “35” at Bryant communicating propane furnace. Gas Valve fault. There is a 4 pin connector between control board and gas valve. There was corrosion and dirt build up on the back 2 pins on the gas valve wiring connection. The corresponding points on the wiring harness where these pins connect also has some watermarks. See photos. I cleaned the buildup off these pins and tested furnace. The trial for ignition completed normal. I also checked for any other causes of interruptions (open pressure switches, open limits, etc.) Measured inducer draft at all stages of modulation using a manometer tee’d into pressure switch. No other faults observed. Combustion test pass. Although cleaning electrical connections fixed problem and furnace is working now, I would still replace valve considering corrosion and likelihood this could happen again. We will provide gas valve replacement quote ASAP.

Inspected all accessible areas of ductwork for air tightness. Turned fan on. Velocity at supply registers Good The closet attic access was not accessible. They didn’t know we had to get there to truly inspect all the ductwork. Homeowner as busy with work and asked that we reschedule inspection for another time and she will have access ready for us. I made the suggestion to inspect the rest of ductwork during next cooling tune up because that is when the system previously was struggling. She know to have area ready for our access when we notify her.

to replace trunk duct will need to open up access point in master bed room closet, also using spare bedroom closet access to get to all the section of duct work. lay plywood down to lay on and work off. Cut out all the old duct board trunk duct in both parts of attic to the air handler and closet and dispose of. Run new metal round Trunk duct from air handler to the closet and up through the attic. Install all new supply take off to adapt to the new round duct and properly seal all connections with mastic tape. Insulate supply trunk and connect all the supply's to new take offs. Turn system blower on and test for no air leaks then test operation of system. We are cutting the access in master bedroom closet. We are not responsible to repair the access we are cutting. Customers is responsible to have access in master bed room repaired.

Performed QA on Trane Gas Furnace/Heat Pump system. Reviewed installation with homeowner. She mentioned the upstairs was warmer than the downstairs. When we checked the system we increased the Minimum Capacity to 50% and increased the Cooling CFM. Also set the blower to Circulate mode. Talked to her about the attic insulation and let her know that would be the next area we would look at if it is still a problem with the temperature differences between the floors. Completed checklist form in system. No additional follow up needed. No yard sign was installed.

Performed gas boiler tune up on Weil McLain ultra 105 natural gas boiler. Talk to customer upon arrival she mentioned some concerns about noise from piping. Test operation before cleaning. Could hear water from supply and return pipes to boiler. Super vent (air eliminator) is not working. Also noticed system is primary/secondary loop is not installed according to manufacturer it currently works the current way but this is also part of system not getting out the air completely. Informed customer about piping she is aware. Clean boiler drain trap, clean sensor/igniter check water pressure and temps. Inputs and outputs from boiler board ok. Performed combustion test ok. Provided estimate for recommendations. Maintenance kit was done about two years ago. Maintenance kit gets done every 4 to 5 years.

Arrive for system not cooling still on hot days. Rechecked refrigerant pressures and temperature split temperature split is low again 18° started adjusting TXB and added 6 ounces pressures and Delta tea got better but not what we originally had and what we like to see an attic access immediately going into the attic, the attic was an icebox, found the last 5 foot section which showed the customer and uploaded to the file came apart. Duckboard is certain to show signs of wearing and breaking down brought to my attention today that he found a few leaks in the past with all this being said, I discussed everything with the customer As far as the ductwork repairs were needing to be completely replaced with metal for it does not Breakdown . We had great improvement and pressures and temperature split . System work properly at this time Travis will be getting quotes together for the customer.

Completed tune up for Williamson oil furnace (105,000 BTU with .75 80°A nozzle) There was no filter; Added 20x20x1 filter Cleaned as much soot and debris from furnace and flue pipe as possible. Left estimate to deep clean heat exchanger because there is soot in between drum. There is no return duct; as it is with return open this can influence combustion and also result in byproducts of combustion entering living space. There is some panning in basement ceiling (see at end of steps) that can be used for return would be at bottom of steps leaking to second floor)in future. There is a small kink in oil line close to burner. This did not affect oil flow during operation but it could kink further. Checked all burner components and ignition transformer. Replaced RF1 oil filter, replaced strainer, replaced .75 80°A nozzle. Electrodes are worn; left estimate to replace Cad cell eye is discolored; left estimate to replace Oil filter canister in bad condition rust at bottom visible from
