Spoke with Bob on arrival who indicated unit was not keeping up consistently on hot days and temperature would climb during the day until is was up in the 80s. Walked the home, the unit installed is for the 2nd floor only. Reviewed installation and inspected ductwork for leakage. Old ducts are not sealed, it is recommended to seal ductwork but this is not related to problem. Inspected wiring and found unit wired as 2 stage and outdoor unit is a single stage unit. Rewired to jump Y1 and Y2 together as recommended in installation manual. Checked dipswitches to ensure airflow is setup properly, set to 390 cfm/ton and set to 2 ton. There was no signs of condensation in pan or around drain line but trap is not insulated. Turned system on and checked system charge and delta across coil. Superheat at 18 degf and subcooling at 8 degf and delta T at 18 degf. System is working properly at this time. It was 75 degf outside so there were no signs of a problem. Instructed Bob to call me
Reviewed jobsite and discussed projects regarding attic insulation, ventilation, and conditioning. Also, looked at releveling outdoor Trane unit and servicing Trane system.
Performed QA on Goodman Air Handler and AC installation. Reviewed installation with homeowner. Tested system in heating mode and took temperature splits. Tested the EZ trap safety and tested the condensation pump. Completed checklist form in system. Corrected any issues that were found during visit. *This is an install we should go back for the Six Month Inspection once it’s warmer outside to verify the refrigerant charge. Lineset is longer and runs through the crawl space.*
Performed QA on Trane Gas Furnace/AC system. Upon arrival homeowner informed me that the system was blowing the fuse and also the drain line had clogged several times. Checked over all wiring on system. Began testing wiring but did not have enough fuses and did not have the Fuse Popper Tool. After Kurt arrived was able to find that the thermostat was bad. We installed the T4 during the install but after we left they reinstalled there own thermostat. Installed the T4 thermostat and programmed. Put system into operation and tested in heating and cooling. Performed combustion testing and tested the vent motor pressure switch safety. Blew through the condensate line and poured several bottles of water through the drain to make sure it was draining. Reviewed thermostat operation with the tenant. Completed checklist form in system.
