Found condenser locked out on low pressure fault code. Found system pressures dropping after a few minutes of operation. Found high side king valve had a slow leak. Recharged system to proper operating pressures and temperatures.
Noah D.
Arrived and heard a slight whistle coming from the return. From previous calls and experience this has happened due to the way the air passes over the return grill. I removed the grill and the sound stopped. Simply flipped the grill the opposite way and the noise stopped. The system is operating normally.
Noah D.
Performed ac tune up x2. Replaced the filters and cleared the drains. Both the systems are in rough condition. Went over the systems with the customer. They are 20 years old. I would not recommend putting any money into the systems. Replacement is the best option at this point. The customer will wait till they break down to replace them.

Found dirty fingerprint marks on both attic hatches. Repainted with customer supplied paint. (She had very little paint, hardly any). Covered fingerprints up and customer is satisfied. Also examined hard wood floors upstairs for any signs of dirt, scuffs or scratches. Customer states we dragged a ladder across her newly finished floors during last service. I found absolutely no scratches or scuffs anywhere on hard floors. Customer states she cleaned the scuffs upon my arrival. Attached are several photos of paint and floors.
Greg M.
Completed installation of communicating system thermostat. Performed installer configuration and start up of system. System cycled in first and second stage. Checked pressures and temperatures. Emergency drain pan in attic tilted to side. Not sure of reason but no water in pan at the moment. Took pictures. Need to call customer for balance payment in morning. Customer was not home.

Re-routed 16x8 supply truck coming off front of plenum. Trunk now runs along outside wall. Moved supply on other trunk from endcap to side for clearance. Changed 8†return to flex from hard pipe, all modifications were to create more space and ceiling height as they are finishing the basement.

Arrived and found power to the air handler. Had 24v to the thermostat but the thermostat was not coming on. The thermostat is specific for this unit. We would have to order the thermostat. We need to replace the thermostat to have the screen come on to see if there are any other issues. The customer is ordering the thermostat herself with amazon. She will call if it does not work.

Customer had another company that said second floor unit has a leak, power was shut off to second floor condenser. Customer was debating to do a leak search, gave him rough estimates of coils and compressors if there is a leak. Customer does not spend a lot of time at house mostly weekends and decided he will get a couple mobile AC units for the second floor to put in bedrooms instead.
Noah D.
Arrived and customer stated the last company to come out said the boards were bad in the furnace and they could not get them from Lennox. Diagnosed that the board are bad, you’re not able to get the boards anywhere even from Lennox. Spoke to billy who already came out for pricing. He is going to talk to Allison and give her prices by tonight.

Arrived and customer stated all the indoor units were blowing warm air. Found almost no refrigerant in the system. Pressure tested the system and did a leak search. Found the leak at the flare fittings on the first floor system in the sun room. Tightened connection and left the system on pressure. Pressure was holding. Evacuated and charged the system.
