2-stage gas valve has failed for 1st floor system. This control board was locked out on E0 error code when I arrived and began working. It is covered under parts only warranty. I completed all tune up procedures for the first floor system that I could. Filter in good condition. I replaced #45 water panel provided by homeowner. Burners are rusted. I cleaned and tested them in the operati furnace and they are lighting across fine for now. Left 2 separate estimates to upgrade burners to stainless steel for ach system. Completed tune up for second floor system. Inspected burners. They are rusted cleaned. This is common for propane furnaces. Inspected heat exchanger, inducer assembly pressure switches. Confirmed gas pressure Cleaned flame sensor, verified flame rectification circuit Ignitor in good condition, measured ohm reading Measured temperature rise and static pressure. Combustion and draft tests: Pass Humidifier saddle valve is failed. I left estimate to replace this and recon

Performed tune up on Amana gas furnace, rain system, and heating mode and tested combustion and gas pressures. Heat exchanger was examined and blower motor and inducer motor retested, hot service igniter was checked, and flame sensor was cleaned and tested. Temperature rise was observed, and the entire flue pipe was examined, the rust that was seen last visit is not a concern right now and combustion test yielded no results it seems like it’s just surface rust. No issues with the unit at this time.

Performed tune up on a a gas furnace, ran system in heating mode and tested combustion, gas pressures, and all related ignition components. Cleaned flame sensor, checked temperature rise, and inspected heat exchanger as well as inducer and blower motor. No issues with unit at this time.

Opened bypass damper and set humidistat to 35% RH. Walked through with Rob and sent him photos as reminders. Furnace operating well at this time. For minisplit: Cleaned filters. Made demand for heating. Defrost cycle the refrigerant flow makes quite a bit of noise and is lengthy 8 minutes. Inspected wiring, checked amp draw with high demand heating and maximum blower speed. Temperature ri

Completed PECO heat pump tune up. 3.5 Ton Heat pump Auxiliary heat is oil boiler. 20x22x1 filter in good condition Indoor coil in good condition. There is biological growth. I made recommendations for this. APCO X nd APCO UB bulb. Inspected wiring and controls. Common wire between contractor and capacitor was burnt common post on capacitor overheated and burnt. Homeowner agreed to replace capacitor. Also replaced burnt wire. Measured temperature rise (68-100) and static pressure. Checked refrigerant charge. 98/476 head pressure is a little high. The indoor coil of this system was replaced by another company and afterwards the system still had micro leaks. That company added leak seal to the system (7/2023) and since then it has been ok. Compressor passes maegohm test which is an indication of integrity of compressor. While refrigerant charge and temperature rise is ok. Given the age of system and its refrigerant issues in the past I would strongly consider upgrading system. Pa
