Performed a QA on a heat pump system. Took photos of the equipment and looked at the overall install of the indoor unit and the outdoor heat pump. Looked at the wiring connections and the voltages. Inspected the drain lines and tested the condensation pump. Inspected the air filter. Looked at temp splits for the system . Outside unit checked the disconnect and the outdoor unit level and made sure all connections are sealed and wiring was completed in a neatly fashion. Refrigerant Charge was good and checked compressor and fan amp draws. New equipment is working fine at this time of service

Installed new Goodman communicating air handler on existing return base. Installed a custom transition to adapt to supply duct work. Installed new 10kw electric heat kit, installed new ez trap and condensation pump and wet switch. Installed a blower motor surge protector. Installed new Goodman heat pump on new heat pump risers and a new plastic pad. Installed new mars disconnect with a built in surge protector. Flushed line set, brazed line set in and pressure tested to 350 psi and leaked checked all joints before evacuating system down to below 500 microns. Charged system with a 1lbs 6oz

Fully assessed no cooling situation. Found indoor unit sending signal to c&y to outside defrost board but nothing was running. Could smell a Burt smell at electrical relays on defrost board. Tapped on relays and everything started up. Defrost board needs replaced. Defrost board is still under parts warranty. Got our office to pick up new defrost board install and test operation. System is working properly at time of service.

7/11/25 Tan Client was referred by mold and more for dehumidifier system in basement and crawlspace. They just had remediation done and want to address the moisture issue in the basement. When I arrived the entire basement was gutted. Client plans on refinishing the basement. The challenge is figuring out applications to suit the future finished basement. Took pictures and measurements. Initially inspected hvac equipment and took pictures of model and serial. Ductwork is sweating but after confirming airflow settings, it’s most likely due to humidity in basement. Majority of ductwork is insulated. Just the supply plenum is not. Crawlspace will need dedicated dehum and access will need to be vented to support the room next to it. Client will need to have electrician run dedicated outlet to this crawlspace to support the dehum and condensate pump. Condensate pump can run to nearby drain pipe that is taped off. The basement will need dedicated dehum to support the remainder of baseme

Found no surge protection on blower motor , installed Ecm surge protection. Also performed precision a/c tune up on amana a/c system. Replaced 16x20x1 air filter. Checked all electrical connections and components. Checked temperature split. Tested outdoor capacitor. Checked refrigerant pressures and temperatures at indoor and outdoor units. A/c is working properly at time of service.

Capacitor tested at 18/4.3 very weak, replaced 45/5 capacitor. Also performed precision a/c tune up on Goodman heat pump system. Replaced 20x20x1 air filter. Checked all electrical connections and components . Checked temperature split. Checked refrigerant pressures and temperatures at indoor and outdoor units. A/c is working properly at time of service. Also provided estimate to install ecobee pro.

Performed ac tune up on 3 ton American standard unit. Check electrical low and high voltage connections and components. Test drain and pump check supply and return air temps ok. Check amp draw on motor. Air filter ok at this time. Check outdoor unit refrigerant pressures and levels. Capacitor and contactor ok. Refrigerant sub cooling is reading 2.4 nameplate calls for about 10 degrees plus or minus 3. Called land lord and explain situation, he’d decided not to add any refrigerant at this time moment. Emails estimate to come back to add refrigerant And dye.

Found the system no running. Thought package unit was low on 410a. Started to add some and found when compressor came on found both high and low side around 200 psi. Txv does not seem to be operating correctly. Will need to call manufacturer to find out how difficult it is to change txv on this type of system. Replacing the system may be the only option. Will call manufacturer and provide an estimate after talking to national comfort products.

Completed 6 month inspection for 3.5 Ton Amana AC system: Indoor coil and furnace was replaced; outdoor unit was not (Installed 4/7/22). *Plumbing leak flooded out original indoor equipment. Replaced 16x25x1 filter Indoor and outdoor coils in good condition Inspected wiring, controls, electric motors and components; left estimate for surge protector for outdoor unit. Indoor blower motor has surge protector. Drew agreed. Completed work today. Installed surge protector at outdoor disconnect. Tested systems Measured temperature split and static pressure Inspected drains; clears EZ trap, tested pump; added treatment tabs to drain pan. Checked integrity of compressor motor (mega ohm test) Assessed refrigerant charge checked pressures. AC system operating well at this time.
