Arrived at our clients home to how. To the outdoor unit not running. I proceeded immediately outside and found the outdoor heat pump on a hard lockout. I reset the lockout and began to monitor the refrigerant pressures. Something was off and I went to the attic. I found the indoor blower motor not running. Mr smith said it was running this morning but he also mentioned that he saw flickering lights in the home when he attempted to turn the unit on this morning. I further diagnosed that the motor had failed. I also found the wire harness had visible corrosion on both the high and low voltage side. And there was a spot on the furnace control board that also had corrosion. The motor was getting power to it but I was unsure if this was an intermittent issue. I showed all my finding to Mr smith and we agreed that replacing all the compromised parts would be best. I picked up the parts and replaced them today. Once replaced I tested the unit. I checked refrigerant pressures and ensured e
Performed single system cooling maintenance on a 2022 mini split unit with 2 heads. I checked the system for cleanliness, washed the filters, washed outdoor unit, checked supply temperature, and checked the surge protector. The system is performing well, but could use a chemical cleaning on the outdoor unit. This is due to water not fully cleaning it as it appears to have a cottonwood substance in the fins. The head in the main potion of the house was spitting water out yesterday. After investigation, I determined it was due to the door being wide open on an extremely humid day and the filter being dirty.
I performed a single system cooling maintenance on a 2023 straight cool unit. I checked amps, capacitor, filter, electrical, drains, safeties, cleanliness, and temperature differential. The system is cooling inside of manufacture specifications and is clean. The drain was not draining correctly due to not having the vent capped. This is a negative airflow system and could not drain with a vent because of the suction. The outdoor unit does not have surge protection to protect the outdoor components. The compressor isn’t over amping on start up, but it is starting under a higher load. The airhandler does not have any water safety switches to protect against water damage via draining issues. I provided options to add water protection, a hard start kit, and a surge protector.
Perform system maintenance on multi head unit inverter. System Has two head units & 1 Condensing unit. Debris buildup across coils on indoor & outdoor coil. Clean outdoor coil using water only indoor head units are going to require a light chemical clean As well as blower motor as you will be able to tell in the pictures from buildup and debris, causing a lack of airflow on both and coil.
