Wildomar, CA

Arrived on site to perform to system diagnostic on two 2001 Rheem condensing units. Joshua stated that home warranty has been doing repairs and every time they come out they have done Band-Aids and haven’t really got system running in better shape and electric bill is significantly high. Joshua states that both upstairs and downstairs or not cooling properly. Began diagnostic on downstairs system and immediately saw multiple repairs have been done by home warranty and all components were Mickey Moused in to the unit and not done properly. Found dual secondary motor control was defective. Starter was significantly burnt on contact points. Condenser coil was heavily restricted with Dust and debris. Once system fired up found that R22 refrigerant pressures were significantly low indicating that there is a leak within the system. Unfortunately R22 is no longer manufactured as of 2020. Amps was extremely high putting it at a high chance of failing. Inspected upstairs system and found that

Client stated no cooling -Technician found condenser non operational -The disconnect box was completely melted and was not sending voltage to condenser -Disconnect box was replaced as well as the electrical whip -Capacitor was out of range and was replaced -System was starting, however the condenser fan motor was not -The fan motor was leaking a lot of oil and was replaced as well -System is properly cooling now

Performed an AC maintenance on a 2011 airflow system. System was chemically bathed and thoroughly washed. Checked all electrical components and everything was in range, only thing was the compressor was starting at a high amperage. Checked pressures and temperatures splits, and neither were in range so I informed the client that she is low on charge and that there could possibly be a leak somewhere in the system. The client asked me to charge the system, and to reschedule another day for me to come out next week and install a leak die/sealant. Filters were not changed this appointment the husband just changed them a month ago. System was fully operational on time of departure.

Arrived on site to perform diagnostic on unit. Homeowner states that downstairs system is not cooling. There is air blowing in the home, but only warm air. Cycled system for cooling. Noticed outdoor unit is unresponsive. Checked system for proper high and low voltage power. Found a dead secondary motor control keeping the unit from turning on. Put in new secondary motor control and cycled system on. Unit kicked on and started cooling. Verified proper refrigerant pressures and temp split. Amp draws on compressor and fan motor are within higher end of range. Unit is overdue for maintenance. Checked indoor unit and Ducting. Went over findings and recommendations with homeowner. With approval replaced secondary motor control and added compressor assist kit to downstairs unit. Signed up on maintenance program. Went ahead and thoroughly washed out condenser coils inside and out. Cycled system, system is operational upon departure.

Upon arrival unit was operational. Started at the outdoor unit checked system’s pressures and amps they were in range checked the secondary motor control it was in range. Washed the unit from the inside out then closed it up and moved to the indoor unit.checked systems amps they were in range and blower motor was clear. Upon departure unit was operational and cooling.

Upon arrival unit was operational started at the outdoor unit checked system pressures they were in range checked amps and secondary motor they were in range. Washed outdoor unit from the inside out then closed it up and moved to the indoor unit. Checked blower amps it was in range and the blower wheel was clean. Checked condensation line it was clear of debris and filter was clean as well. Upon departure unit was operational and cooling. I did recommend surge protection for their units.

Arrived on site Perform AC maintenance on 2021 Lenox unit. Upon arrival Mr. Castro had the system replaced in April and has had no issues. Perform deep cleaning on coil. Measured refrigerant pressures and found that they were in range. Electrical checked out properly. Drain lines an attic are clear. Filter needs to be swapped out. Client will be renewing maintenance plan in winter time and would like to hold off at this time upon departure system is fully operational.

Arrived on site to perform AC diagnostic on 2022 Goodman condensing unit. Upon arrival tenant stated that they just moved in a couple months ago and just last month home warranty came and installed a brand new air conditioner. The main issue was that 1/2 of the mobile home was not getting airflow and that his bill was over $500 for last month with a new unit. Begin diagnostic underneath house and found an old ducks were connected but not sealed up properly including at the evaporator coil underneath the furnace they should’ve been done at installation. Also measured refrigerant pressures and found that the system was low on R410a charge either because They never charge it up properly to begin with or there is a leak in the system. Proceeded to evaporator coil and found oil traces on copper line set but wasn’t able to pinpoint location of leak. Evaporator coil has tons of air leakage as well which should be sealed up to maximize airflow to room. Measured temperature split on system

During my 20 point inspection, I started off with hosing down condenser coil of any dirt and debris. Opened condenser cabinet and checked everything thoroughly. Starter (good), fuses (good), motherboard (good), dual secondary motor control (good), 24v (good), 120v (good), refrigerant levels sh 26, sc 10, osa 88, delta 20. Then went onto the furnace and checked furnace cabinet thoroughly. Blower motor (good), single secondary motor control (good), motherboard (good), 24v (good), 120v (good). House cools great and ready for summer. Filter will be replaced by owner. Renewing membership

Arrived on site to perform diagnostic. Homeowner states that his unit works perfectly fine, but he would like to add zoning to separate upstairs from downstairs as his parents downstairs get cold anytime unit is operating. Mentioned our sales guy was out here last week and was mentioning about zoning and is interested in getting that put in. After performing evaluation on whole house and system configuration, found that unit is a single stage equipment. Zoning does not work very well with single stage units. Went over differences between single stage unit, 2 stage units and variable speed. Homeowner understands, and does not want to risk zoning his unit as is, and also does not want to invest a crazy amount for a whole new system with zoning as the problem is not too major. Went over pricing, no other work performed.

Started off with hosing down condenser coil of any dirt and debris. Opened condenser cabinet and checked everything thoroughly.

Then went onto the air handler and checked cabinet thoroughly. Blower motor (good), single secondary motor control (good), motherboard (good), 24v (good), 120v (good). House cools great and ready for summer. Owner had his own air filter and I installed for him. Charging for renewal.

Arrived on site to perform diagnostic on 2003 Lennox unit. Found that owner replaced ECM motor with used unit found online. Original went bad due to backed up condensation line and water leaked onto motor. The motor the owner installed ran for several months but is now not operating. Went to condenser outside and found that it was stuck running due to a welded starter. It is unsure how long the unit was running with the blower motor inoperative. It is unknown how the compressor will run after the new motor is installed due to this unknown variable. Ultimately system is 19 years old and beyond design life. Client is aware of all failure points within system. At this time he does not see it being cost effective to replace the motor on the 19 year old system and is interested in seeing long-term replacement options. Supervisor will arrive later today to go over replacement options and upon departure system is non-operational due to failed motor and starter.

Started with checking out unit on right hand side of house if you’re walking towards front door. Checked out condenser cabinet and found a dual and single secondary motor control that was reading low and needing to be replaced. Also found a condenser fan motor and compressor that are going out and reading at full amps. Compressor and condenser fan motor starting to make a loud noise likes it’s arching when calling for cool. Then went on up to the furnace and found a cracked coil and pan that’s leaking into secondary pan. Secondary pan can be clogged with dirt and debris too because I saw backflow. Found a single secondary motor control in furnace that needs to be replaced as well. Moved onto the unit on left of house, and checked condenser cabinet electrical components. Dual and single secondary motor controls both reading low and need swap out. Condenser fan motor has been replaced on this unit and compressor working good. Went up to attic and same issue with other coil, cracke

Technician arrived to perform spring tune-up -Condenser was cleaned out with water and debris was removed -Refrigerant levels are within range -Electrical components have all been replaced and are working great, except for the condenser fan motor -The fan motor is really struggling, and when the fan motor struggles, other components are severely affected as well -Replacement of the fan motor is highly recommended or else it will cause other expensive components that were just replaced, to fail -However, system is cooling and ready for summer

Came to house and breaker kept tripping while I was here. Found that for some reason both systems are zoned to same breaker some how. Breaker can be faulty for tripping loft and hallway along with ac for downstairs. found compressor that’s grounded. Charging for filter and diagnostic today

Replaced air filter and cleaned restricted condenser coil.

Arrived on site to perform spring tune up on a new unit just installed last year. Client stated no issues. Cycled cooling on and was operational and cooling. Washed condenser coil inside and out. Found dryer vent is right behind our door unit and unit is gunna be getting clogged up with lint from the dryer. Advised client of findings and why we should be out yearly to wash this out. Brushed unit and washed condenser coil. Opened up unit to inspect electrical compartment. Connections are good and unit is in range of amps. Circuit boards look good but advised client there is not protection on this high efficient unit. Cycled cooling and un cooling hole at 20 degrees. Inspected I for unit and found filter dirty but client stated they would replace. Indoor unit is good on dust as it’s new. But advised due to area they live in and dogs they have highly recommended keeping a eye on unit and replace as they should. Found client to still be using filter at the return vent. Advised that he no

Cleaned outdoor condenser coil and recovered refrigerant to drop the refrigerant pressures.

Arrived on site to perform diagnostic on Lennox system. Homeowners states that upstairs unit is not cooling. There’s an error code on nest thermostat that shows problem with Y1 wire. Cycled for cooling. Indoor unit kicked on but would immediately short cycle. Outdoor unit is unresponsive. Checked wiring in furnace and found that the Y1 wire coming from the outdoor condenser is causing a short. Checked outdoor unit electrical and system components. Found that low voltage wire had been chewed up, most likely by the dogs, and is causing a short. With approval went ahead and repaired low voltage wire. Cycled system for Cooling. Unit kicked on and started cooling. Checked outdoor unit amperages. Temperature splits are within range. Unit is cooling correctly. Outdoor condensers are fairly dirty and definitely recommend having maintenance performed. Also, unit is equipped with 5 inch filtration system, but also has 1 inch filters in return registers which I recommend to remove. Having both

Technician arrived to perform spring tune up -Condenser was throughly cleaned out to improve efficiency and longevity of the system -Electrical components were within range, except the fan motor, which was over amping -Filter was replaced (20x25x1) Recommend replacing every 2 months -Refrigerant levels were a little too high with the subcool sitting at 20 and the high pressure being 400 when it should be at about 350 -Refrigerant was recovered to make the subcool 10 which is at the proper levels -Condenser fan motor was replaced, the starter was also recommended -System is tuned up and ready for summer

Performed cooling tune up. Inspected filter and ducting. Tested electrical components and measured amp draws. Recorded temperature and refrigerant charge. Cleaned condenser coil. Installed outdoor surge protector.
