Responded to no-heat service call for a Kenmore furnace less than 10 years old. Diagnostic inspection revealed system was operational upon arrival but had failed previously. Internal examination showed significant dust accumulation on circuit board components and blower assembly. Cleaned critical electrical connections, performed system test cycle, and recommended replacement of aging motor components to prevent future failure.
Performed scheduled furnace tune up and inspection. Identified leaking collector box during diagnostic assessment. Recommended collector box replacement and presented maintenance plan options to customer.
Performed furnace tune-up and inspection on 12-year-old natural gas unit. Found filter installed backwards, corrected orientation. Identified blower motor making loud noise during startup/shutdown, indicating potential failure. Discovered critical safety hazard: cracked heat exchanger above high limit switch causing carbon monoxide leakage. Condemned unit as unsafe to operate. Scheduled same-day estimate for furnace replacement.
Performed comprehensive furnace tune-up service, addressing multiple maintenance issues. Cleaned rusty burners to improve combustion efficiency and recommended air cleaner installation to address airflow restrictions caused by inadequate filter size. Visual inspection of heat exchanger and ventilation system conducted with documentation via inspection camera.
Adjusted temperature settings on 50-gallon A.O. Smith electric water heater (Model ENT-50130) that was delivering lukewarm water. Found top element set at lowest temperature while bottom element was at 120°F; corrected by setting both elements to consistent 120°F temperature to restore proper hot water function.
Performed complimentary heat exchanger cleaning on tankless water heater as scheduled. Flushed the water side of the unit, removing a small amount of sediment from the heat exchanger. Disassembled the heat exchanger to clean internal channels. System is now functioning properly with no issues detected. Discussed potential water quality equipment upgrades with homeowners, who will monitor water quality for approximately one year due to recent road construction that may have contributed to sediment.
Completed replacement of PSC draft combustion inducer blower assembly in Lennox system as previously sold by Roger. Replaced draft motor, performed operational testing to verify proper ignition and heating function, and confirmed all other system components operating correctly.
Responded to service call for a 12-4 natural gas furnace with reported loud noise followed by complete system failure. Diagnostic inspection revealed faulty inducer motor as the root cause of no-heat condition. Successfully replaced inducer motor, restoring proper system function and heat output.
Investigated boiler system with leaking pressure relief valve and no heat. Discovered improper installation of customer-added expansion tank, causing water to flow directly from supply through relief valve when unit activated. Identified compromised auto fill valve as primary issue. Ordered replacement parts including auto fill valve, backflow preventer, and pressure relief valve for repair.
Conducted diagnostic inspection of residential water heating system with Rheem tankless water heater and customer-installed expansion tank. Identified active leak at T&P valve occurring upon water activation due to pressure issues. Also noted potential installation error where customer directed water into incorrect tankless heater inlet. Recommended transfer to HVAC technician with boiler expertise as system requires specialized repairs beyond standard plumbing scope.
Performed comprehensive furnace inspection on 11-year-old natural gas system. Identified and replaced multiple failing components including motor starter capacitor, flame sensor (reading under 2 microamps), ignitor, and inducer draft motor (running on high amps). CO levels in flue verified safe and system is now operational.
Completed scheduled furnace tune-up on 7-year-old Lennox furnace. Identified and replaced leaking collector box. System was restored to proper working condition with all connections verified and operation tested.
Performed routine furnace tune-up on new customer's system. Replaced dirty filter and observed early signs of heat exchanger wear. Conducted diagnostic testing with electronic analyzer and advised customer to monitor heat exchanger condition for potential future replacement.
Responded to no-heat call for 1.5 year old natural gas furnace. Diagnostic testing revealed obstructed pressure switch hose preventing proper operation. Cleared blockage, verified proper system function, and restored heat.
Performed scheduled furnace tune-up on 8-year-old system. Inspected burner assembly with visible blue flame pattern confirming proper combustion. Checked all electrical connections, blower motor operation, and gas valve functionality. System is operating correctly with no issues identified. Recommended continuing regular maintenance schedule.
