Trusted HVAC Specialists in Davenport, FL

Completed the scheduled preventive maintenance on the air conditioning system. During the visit, I cleaned the drain line and drain pan and added a treatment tablet to help prevent future buildup. I also removed debris from the outdoor condenser and thoroughly rinsed the condenser coil from both directions to help maintain proper airflow and efficiency. The system was tested in cooling mode, including refrigerant pressures, temperature split, subcooling, superheat, and motor/compressor operation. The air filter was also replaced with the new filter provided by the customer. I inspected the evaporator coil and blower wheel, and both were clean and in good condition. System is cooling properly and operating normally at this time. No issues were found during today’s maintenance visit. Installed a new UV light inside the air handler using a separate transformer and fused power supply for proper and safe operation. Tested the UV light after installation and confirmed it is operating pr

Performed a diagnostic on a 3-ton Carrier system, approximately 14 years old. Upon arrival, I checked the system operation and found the outdoor unit running, but the indoor blower motor was not operating. Testing confirmed that the blower motor had failed. I also inspected the air handler and found significant bacterial growth throughout the blower wheel, evaporator coil, and interior of the air handler. The evaporator coil is badly corroded. The external filter-drier is also severely rusted and should be replaced. I explained the condition of the system to the customer and showed them the findings. The customer stated that they are likely planning to sell the home this year or next year and only wanted to repair the failed component at this time. I provided a proposal for the blower motor replacement, and the customer approved the repair. Replaced the blower motor and checked system operation after completing the repair. Verified compressor amperage, condenser fan motor amperage,

Performed a diagnostic on a 4-ton Carrier package unit, approximately 10 years old, due to no cooling. Upon inspection, I found the system completely frozen. The compressor, evaporator coil, and copper lines were covered in a solid block of ice. I inspected the ductwork and found the 14-inch supply and return ducts severely kinked and crushed, causing a major airflow restriction. The air filter is also heavily compacted with debris and needs to be replaced. Due to the system being completely frozen, I was unable to complete a full system diagnosis at this time. After the system defrosts and proper airflow is restored, further testing will be needed to determine if there is a refrigerant leak or any other system issues. I explained to the customer that there is a high possibility of additional repairs once the system can be fully tested. The customer requested a quote for replacing the damaged ductwork. I prepared a proposal for replacement of the 14-inch supply and return ducts. I a

Performed a diagnostic on the downstairs unit Lennox 2017. Customer reported finding ice on the suction line. I checked the system temperature split and refrigerant pressures. The system is low on refrigerant, with a 32°F vapor saturation temperature, 401 PSI suction pressure, and a 12°F temperature split. I performed a complimentary leak search on the evaporator coil and found a refrigerant leak on the right rear side of the coil. I recorded a video of the leak and attached it to the service call. The air handler is from 2017. Based on the equipment warranty information, the evaporator coil may be covered under the Lennox parts warranty, subject to model, registration, and warranty verification. I provided the customer with a quote for evaporator coil replacement, and the customer approved the proposal. At this time, the unit is cooling, but it is operating outside the manufacturer’s specifications due to the refrigerant leak. The system will require evaporator coil replacement onc

Performed a diagnostic on the Trane heat pump R-22. I was here yesterday, and the unit was cooling properly. Today, the system was operating in heat mode. I checked the O wire at the condenser and measured 26 volts. I also checked the voltage at the reversing valve solenoid and measured 26 volts. This indicates the reversing valve is stuck in the heating position and is not shifting into cooling. At this time, there is nothing further I can do to restore cooling operation. The unit is temporarily down until the customer decides how to proceed. The customer asked about the cost and availability of a replacement reversing valve. I explained that the part may need to be special ordered, and we need to check with Trane for availability. Depending on availability, the part could potentially take approximately 3–6 months to obtain. The customer also asked about replacement equipment options other than Daikin. Kenneth provided a Goodman system option and sent the proposal to the customer.

Performed a diagnostic on a 24-year-old HVAC system. Upon arrival, the thermostat was OFF. The customer stated the system had been running in heat mode the previous day and wanted the system checked because of its age. Turned the system on in cooling mode and verified operation. Checked system pressures, subcooling, superheat, temperature split, compressor amps, condenser fan motor amps, blower motor amps, capacitor, and overall system operation. The capacitor tested within tolerance. The system is cooling and draining properly at this time. Findings: * Contactor is pitted and should be replaced. * Condenser coil is contaminated with debris and needs cleaning. * Evaporator coil is badly rusted. * Blower wheel is dirty and should be removed and cleaned. * Drain pan and drain line have corrosion, algae, and debris buildup. * Refrigerant charge is slightly low. * Performed a complimentary leak search and detected a very small leak at the evaporator coil, with readings between 60–100 pp

Arctic Maintenance Agreement – Summer Tune-Up Customer signed up for the Arctic Maintenance Agreement, and today I performed the summer tune-up and system checkup. I checked the system operation, including temperature split and air filter condition. The air filter was recently replaced. The system is currently operating with a 19°F temperature split, which is within the expected range. I cleaned and flushed the condensate drain line and drain pan and added Viper drain treatment to help maintain proper drainage and reduce buildup. During the visual inspection, I found the following conditions: * The condenser contactor is badly pitted and should be replaced. * The evaporator coil is heavily compacted with debris and bacterial buildup. I recommend pulling the evaporator coil out for a thorough cleaning. * No UV light is currently installed. A UV light installation is highly recommended to help control microbial growth inside the air handler and around the evaporator coil. At this t

Maintenance Plan Coverage The maintenance plan includes three service visits per year. Each visit includes rinsing the condenser coil, cleaning and treating the drain line and drain pan, checking overall system operation, verifying refrigerant pressures and temperature split, and inspecting all electrical components to ensure the system is operating properly.

Performed a diagnostic on the pool heat pump due to the customer’s concern that the pool water is turning green. The pool service company advised the customer that the possible cause was water leaking from the pool heater. Inspected the pool heat pump, including all water connections, joints, and fittings. The pool pump was operating, and all visible plumbing connections were secure with no signs of water leaks or dripping from inside or around the heater. I then operated the pool heat pump for approximately 2–3 minutes to further evaluate its operation. During operation, I observed condensation forming on the coil and draining onto the PVC piping and the bottom of the equipment platform. This is normal condensation produced during operation, especially under high outdoor humidity conditions. The amount of condensation can increase significantly when humidity is high, and the water may collect on the platform or concrete beneath the unit. The pool heat pump is operating normally at

Performed preventive maintenance contract on the HVAC system. Checked system operation in cooling mode and inspected the system filter. Checked refrigerant pressures, subcooling, superheat, temperature split, compressor amperage, condenser fan motor amperage, and blower motor amperage. Inspected the electrical components and overall system operation. During the inspection, I found the contactor badly pitted and in need of replacement. The evaporator coil is also badly rusted, indicating significant deterioration. I found a substantial amount of rust and metal debris inside the condensate drain line, which was restricting proper drainage. I used a magnet to remove the metal debris and blew the drain line from the outside toward the drain pan to bring the debris back for removal. After removing the metal particles with the magnet, I used a vacuum to remove the water and debris from the drain line and then flushed the line thoroughly with hot water. The drain line is now flowing and dra
