Newtown Square, PA

Installed EZ trap @ evaporator drain. Tested. Completed AC tune up 2.5 ton Carrier AC 16x25x1 filter ok. Indoor and outdoor coils in good condition Measured temperature split and static pressure Inspected wiring, controls, electric motors and components. Left email estimates for surge protectors. Inspected drain. Verified integrity of compressor motor Checked refrigerant charge and pressures. System is slightly undercharged. 2.6° SC. Target is 10° I left estimate to charge up to 2# and add leak detection dye. It will perform ok now. She wants to wait to charge system. System operating ok. slight undercharge of refrigerant. Homeowner paid for invoice today,

7/30/25 Tan Performed ac tune up on 7 year old system installed by another contractor. Changed filter supplied by us. Checked temp splits and airflow. Found good readings. Checked blower motor amp and found it within manufacture specifications. Flushed condensate pan and drain line. Cleaned ez trap as well. Natural drain line goes into the floor. Inspected indoor coil and found it without any microbial growth or signs of leakage. Checked outdoor unit and tested refrigerant levels. Found them good. Cleaned outdoor coil with a brush as there’s no source for water to hose it down. Checked electricals and components. Found capacitor within range. Checked motor amp draw and both fan and compressor are within manufacture specifications. System is operational at this time. Performed visual inspection of water heater that is 7 years old. Venting is pitched properly with no indication of leakage. Settings were found at level C which is right below very hot. No signs of water leakage at water

7/25/25 Tan Replaced filter with 14x20x1 and addressed noise complaint at outdoor unit. Door vibrates when it runs so I added foam tape to the inside to eliminate the noise. I did not touch anything else. We spoke about how the system will constantly run due to the weather. System is operational at this time

Estimate

Found water in attic equipment pan. Removed water (about 6 gallons) and cleaned. Drain is hard piped from the attic through a wall down into an unfinished crawl. There we discovered a metal hanger had broken free at the end of the drain line, causing improper pitch and water backing up. I added a plastic strap to support and give drain line proper pitch. Then had John stand outside at drain termination as I poured additional quart af after into drain line. Drain is now flowing. I also showed him how to add monthly drain treatment tabs to the line t keep it clean. Left estimates and explained 1. EZ trap 2. Wet Switch 3. Wrap sections of ductwork and air handler 4. AC only plan membership Checked refrigerant pressures and temperature split. Told him to leave FAN to “On” for a couple days to dry air handler. Also made sure air handler is properly pitched. System operating well at this time.

Completed AC tune up for 2 Ton Rheem AC. Equipment is 80% Efficiency natural gas furnace with AC downflow. Replaced 14x20x1 filter Inspected wiring,controls, electrical motors. Cleared and tested drain. Indoor coil has normal amount of rust/discoloration given the systems age. Measured temperature split (76-62=14°) This is considered low. Target is 18°-20° temperature split, Checked refrigerant pressures. System is undercharged. It has been charged in the past (3# in the summer of 2020) Left estimate to charge system 3# R410A with plan membership. I also discussed upgrading/replacimg the system as it is 15 years old. She will consider options. System operating ok. The air conditioner will struggle on demanding days.

Customer mentioned that second floor doesn’t cool nearly as well as first floor. First floor feels ok. System is not zoned. The basement is finished. I did find the boot of the supply closest to the exterior wall was completely detached from plywood subfloor and sunken down, I was able to prop back up and use 1 1/2 “ wood screw with flat head and anchor it back to subfloor. Then put grille back on. Velocity 533 rpm. Grille size 8”x4” which is 120 CFM. Good. One recommendation is to install an Ecobee smart thermostat with room sensor to be used to average with the sensor in the thermostat. System operating well at this time. He will consider thermostat estimate.

Fully assessed no cooling situation. Found indoor unit running but not outside unit. Found failed 40/5 capacitor. Replaced capacitor and tested operation. 410a refrigerant pressures were 377/151 with 5 subcooling. Found no water protection on indoor evaporator coil, provided estimate to install ez trap. Checked temperature split it was 18 degrees. Customer signed up for maintenance plan. A/c is working at time of service.

Installation of wet switch and condensation pan. Wired pump safety and wet switch in series with unit. Test operation of pump and sensor ok. Customer water heater pilot was off relit pilot and test operation. Provided estimate to replace water heater. We will have to install a 40 gallon due to space limitations. Emailed estimate for water heater options.

Completed AC tune up for 3 Ton Amana AC system; 3 zones Replaced 14x24x1 filter Indoor coil in good condition; cleaned outdoor coil with nearby hose. Inspected wiring, controls, electric motors and components; equipment has surge protection. Measured temperature split and static pressure Inspected drains; tested pump; added treatment tabs to drain pan. Left estimate for EZ trap. Drain device with overfill protection switch. Also left estimate for wet switch. Checked integrity of compressor motor (mega ohm test) Assessed refrigerant charge checked pressures. AC system operating well at this time.
