A set of normally closed contacts (N.C. 2from SK relay was already. wired to break power to control board.) Originally I wired the other set of N.C. Contacts as well. Tested operations. I also tested secondary drain safety switch and pan safeties as well. System operating well at this time. Ultimately Computer Force and I decided to leave relay wired as I was with 1 set of N.C. Contacts wired to break 24VAC. After testing and confirming that air handler shuts down.

Completed plan member heat tune up for 120,000 BTU natural gas furnace 16x24x1 filter in good condition Inspected burners, heat exchanger, ignitor, inducer assembly, pressure switches and components 20uF blower capacitorln Cleaned flame sensor with 0000 steel wool and verified flame rectification circuit Inspected wiring, controls, electric motors and components; left email estimates for surge protection devices. Confirmed proper manifold gas pressures Measured temperature rise and static pressure Combustion, smoke and draft tests: Pass Discussed and left estimate for AC+Gas Heat plan Membership. Furnace is operating well at the time of this tune up.

Completed heat tune up for steam coil/air handler system Replaced 20x20x1 filter Measured temperature rise and static pressure. Inspected wiring and controls. Left email estimate for X13 surge protector for blower motor. Inspected drain and drap. There is no water safety device for this system. Left email estimate for wet switch. This will shut equipment down in the event of a water leak thereby preventing any water damage to this Appartment and or the spaces below. System operating well at this time.

Completed PECO Tune up for 3.5 Ton Goodman Heat pump system with 10KW electric heat kit. Replaced 20x20x1 filter. Walk through with homeowner how to replace filter (in attic). Replace every 2-3 Months. Inspected drain and components. Left estimate for EZ trap. Inspected wiring, controls, electric motors and components. Left estimates for surge protection devices and hard start kit. Measured temperature rise and static pressure Verified amp draw of 10KW electric heater: 40KW. (60A breaker in AH) Inspected condition of both the indoor and the outdoor coil. Monitored R410A refrigerant pressures and diagnostics. Basement area is cooler than main floor. Left estimate for Ecobee thermostat which includes room sensor. Smart thermostat will also allow for control of auxiliary heat lockout. Heat pump is operating well at this time. Homeowner decided to become AC/Heat pump plan member, to install EZ trap and (2) Intermatic surge protectors today. Collected half of balance today. Our office

Installation of customer supplied Smoke Detectors and Relays for both Furnace systems of the Tech Center. Complete wiring of the smoke detectors and relays on each system. Test operation of systems upon completion. 3/8/24: For basement HVAC system: Wired smoke detector normally closed contacts to break low voltage power thereby shutting down system is in duct smoke detector detects smoke. Tested by removing one of the normally closed contact wires: Good

Completed heat tune up. Equipment is heat only/ steam coil. Located above drop ceiling in bathroom,. Replaced 14x14x1 filter. Filter was very dirty recommend replacing every 2 months during the heating season. Inspected wiring and components. Found weak 5uF blower capacitor. Left estimate to replace. To shut air handler off use breaker, panel is in the same room. Temperature split (70-152) System operating well at this time.

Completed plan member heat tune up for 60,000 BTU natural gas furnace Replaced 16x16x1 filter Inspected burners, heat exchanger, ignitor, inducer assembly, pressure switches and components Cleaned burners with wire wheel. Cleaned flame sensor with 0000 steel wool and verified flame rectification circuit Inspected wiring, controls, electric motors and components; left email estimates for surge protection device Confirmed proper manifold gas pressures Confirmed inducer vacuum in low and high fire operation Measured temperature rise (68°-110°= 42°F) and static pressure Inspected all components of drain Combustion, smoke and draft tests: Pass Discussed and left estimate for AC+Gas Heat plan Membership. Furnace is operating well at the time of this tune up.

Completed heat tune up for 70,000 BTU natural gas furnace 80%Eff. 16x16x1 filter ok Cleaned flame sensor with 0000 steel wool Inspected flues, burners and heat exchanger Measured temperature rise (72-140) Checked gas pressure Inspected wiring, controls, electric motors and components Carbide ignitor is worn and reading just outside of manufacture rating (resistance value of ignitor measured when ignitor at room temperature) Left estimate to replace ignitor with OEM ignitor. Combustion and draft tests: Pass Equipment (including AC) is 24 years old. Williamson should anticipate breakdowns and issues. Would consider upgrading system.

Attic air handler control board had failed. No LEDS. Made sure transformer is providing 24V to board, that fuse in good and that there are no open switches. Several spots of obvious corrosion on control board. System is down and has been down. Undercharged on refrigerant as diagnosed last year. Please consider system replacement quotes provided by DiBiase. Shut air handler breaker OFF Completed tune up for basement (1st floor system) Mr. Fisher replaced failed ignitor and gas valve over this winter. Completed maintenance for 80,000 BTU furnace in basement: Replaced 16x25x1 filter. Was very dirty. Recommend replacing ever 2 months. Dirty filter could very likely e the cause of the failed ignitor Used soap bubbles on all gas piping joins after gas shut off valve to ensure there are no leaks. Gas pressure if new valve needed slight adjustment. Cleaned flame sensor with 0000 steel wool; verified flame rectification circuit. Measured ignitor ohms (71 ohms) Good.271N Combustible and dr

Completed cooling tune up for 3.5 Ton AC system: Replaced 20x20x1 filter; filter was very dirty. Recommend replacing every 2-3 months. Dirty filters cause a number of mechanical problems. Inspected wiring and controls. Megaohm test on compressor motor winding reading caution. Indication that winding on compressor motors are not in great condition/beginning to fail. Dirty filters cause this issue. Inspected condition of both the indoor and the outdoor coil Checked condensate drain and trap. Monitored R410A refrigerant pressures and diagnostics using charging jacket. Pressures 110/300 15 SH 12 SC outdoor temperature 51°F; Good Refrigerant Charge was added in July of 2022. We checked for leaks using UV light. No indication of leaks at indoor coil. The inside of the cap for the port at indoor coil had some dye. We made sure this schrader core was tight and verified that it was not leaking using leak detection bubbles System operating well at this time,
