Reviewed information and created and emailed estimate.

Took photos and videos of up and coming BBQ/Kitchen on campus. Room dimensions are 15’x15’ with 8’ ceilings. There is a kitchen with new commercial sink inside. Doorway to outdoor over patio. Will be used as a recreational/kitchen/outdoor dining area. They are interested in installing a Minisplit. Note to Dibiase Staff: if you look up my visit under “Weld Shop” 4/30/25 you will see more relevant photos/measurements/videos.

Completing up for Gas boiler (140,000 BTU input) Cleaned burners and burner compartment (floor directly under boiler) Cleaned heat exchanger, very little debris Inspected flue piping and chimney Inspected wiring, controls, aqua stat setting. Assessed hydronic components/performance. Left previous estimates for backflow preventer and for spirovent air elimination. Current air scoop doesn’t have required 18” of straight pipe to inlet and auto air vent has leaked in the past. Auto air vent still working, used it today to purge some air. Combustion smoke and draft tests: Pass System operating well at this time.

Completed tune up for Natural gas boiler. Weil McClin CGI4 Removed and cleaned burners, cleaned burner compartment. Inspected heat exchanger and cleaned from bottom. Very minimal debris in heat exchanger. Auto air vent, feed valve, expansion tank and pressure relief not working. Have estimate to replace as well as removing the air scoop and installing a spirovent in its place. Although system has air in it, temperature deltas are ok. Not truly air bound. Inspected wiring and controls. I added a metal strap to better secure the vent pipe. Noticed that It rattles after 10-12 minutes run time. This solved the nuisance noise issue. Combustion and draft tests: Pass System operating safely but not at optimal efficiency or performance. If system becomes air bound it will be time-consuming and expensive because ai elimination system has failed. Recommend upgrading system or going forward with repair estimate.

No heat for basement system of Tech center. Initially spark ignitor was not operating: I removed from control and cleaned up contact then reset. During first 10 seconds run time I could smell the odors of a fouled furnace heat exchanger. Flame rolled out once. Flue gas safety test: FAILED ( In excess of 2000 ppm.) Ambient carbon monoxide test in classroom that is served by this appliance: FAILED (20ppm) and climbing. Took apart flue piping and inspected flues and chimney itself for any extreme blockages. Except for minor rust, flue pipe and chimney are clear. Do not operate this furnace. I placed a lockout/red tag on gas supply valve (gas cock) which I shut off. Also turned power off to furnace. If you operate this funace you risk the health, hospitalization and in extreme cases death of occupants in the building. Equipment is 125,000 BTU 80% efficiency funace with 5 Ton R22 AC (2003). System needs to be upgraded. Doesn’t make sense to replace just the furnace considering age o

Completed heat tune up for natural gas furnace. Homeowner replaces air filter on his own schedule Inspected heat exchanger, burners, flue pipe, inducer assembly and hoses Inspected hot surface ignitor and verified resistance with meter Cleaned flame sensor and verified flame rectification circuit Measured temperature rise and static pressure Checked wiring, controls, electric motors and components; Checked manifold gas pressures Inspected drain and pump. Cleared EZ trap. Replaced Honeywell in-line scale inhibitor for water line that feeds steam humidifier. Provided by homeowner. Left estimate for steam humidifier maintenance this should be done every 2 years and in some cases every year. Combustion, draft and smoke tests: Pass Gas furnace is operating well at this time. Homeowner renewed and paid for plan today.

Completed heat tune up for natural gas furnace. 132,000 BTU input 107,000 BTU output. It is a tad oversized. Furnace serial number dates it to 1999. However it has seen limited use. Recently moved into by previous owners son. Furnace is slightly oversized. HEAT ONLY There is an air conditioning coil above furnace but it is not piped into a condensing unit. Serial number dates it to late 90s. Presumably they originally intended to add AC but abandoned the idea. 16x25x1 filter ok. Use Fiberglass filters only to avoid overheating heat exchanger. Inspected heat exchanger, burners, flue pipe, inducer assembly and hoses Polished crossover ports and front face of inshot burners with wire wheel. Recommend and provided estimate for replacing (6) burners. Some surface rust and some rust on sides of burner box. Some rust on heat e changer surfaces and seams Needs new exhaust. There are pinholes which are very likely to become larger and the fitting closest to chimney base is loose. I adde

Completed AC tune up for 3.5 Ton Goodman heat pump system Replaced 20x20x1 filter Indoor and outdoor coils in good condition Inspected wiring, controls, electric motors and components; he currently has a z wave thermostat but z wave is not set up. Recommended WiFi smart thermostat for better control of electric heat use. (Based on outdoor temperature) Will result is savings in winter, Measured temperature split and static pressure Inspected drains; cleared EZ trap Checked integrity of compressor motor (mega ohm test) Assessed refrigerant charge checked pressures. Also discussed and left (2) estimates for air treatment systems. 1. APCOX whole home air treatment system 2. APCOX whole home air treatment system PLUS air ionizer which will help filter collect more particles. Heat pump operating well at this time.

Set new mitsubishi ducted lining split in drain pan.adapted Supply and return ducts to unit. Ran new lineset from branch box outside to new unit in attic. Made connections and leak checked. Ran new condensate drain with ez trap and adapted to gravity. Ensured drain was pitched all the way to exterior of house. Made all high and lowboltage connections to unit. Wired all safeties to dry contacts. Hung new mitsubishi wireless thermostat. Hung new indoornhead on basement wall. Ensured unit was level. Made lineset connections and leak checked. Wired unit. Ensure proper drainage from indoor head. Set unit on new pad and leveled. Hung new disconnect box. Hung slim duct from attic penetration down. Hung branch box and enclosed in weatherproof box. Made all lineset connections to branch box and outdoor unit. Leak checked. Made all wiring connections. Performed all test put procedures cleaned all work areas and reviewed installation with homeowner

Completed AC tune up for 3 Ton york AC system r22 Indoor coil and furnace from 2003 Outdoor unit from 2014 Replaced 16x25x1 filter; very dirty. Recommend replacing every 2-3 months. Indoor and outdoor coils in good condition Inspected wiring, controls, electric motors and components; Measured temperature split and static pressure Inspected drains; cleared trap, tested pump; added treatment tabs to drain pan. Recommend EZ trap drain overfill switch. Recommend wet switch. Left email estimate. Checked integrity of compressor motor (mega ohm test) Assessed refrigerant charge checked pressures. System is low on R22. 27SH. Target is 17° Left estimate to charge system up to 2#R22. Highly recommend upgrading system. It’s well beyond replacement age and has refrigerant leak. We have photo and relevant info on file to make and send system quote. AC system will underperform.
