Kevin was very professional and friendly. It was important to him that I understood what he was doing. That is greatly appreciated.
An awesome technician who thoroughly went through my system to ensure trouble free operation for the coming cold season. He explained everything he was doing and ensured I understood how I could maintain the equipment and prevent problems.
One of the best technicians we have ever had the pleasure of having!
He is the best technician we have EVER had. We truly feel like he cares about our health issues and always has amazing solutions. Clean air inside is so important and he has been helping us get the best clean air that we can. Having the AC and Heat work at the appropriate time but for us, the inside air quality is actually more important.
Very thorough. Checked the entire system from top to bottom and corrected problems as he found them. Explained everything, both positive and negative.
He listened and really helped us with questions and then put what we wanted into action!
Quick response, professional work. They helped identify a major design flaw with the system that was installed by the previous owner.
Today I had the pleasure of conducting maintenance on a 6 year old Carrier system. Upon arrival , homeowner stated that the system has been working fine and alerted me that I’m only checking the upstairs unit. I started by verifying system cleanliness. I found the blower assembly and ducts dirty and in need of cleaning but there’s a strong possibility that the downstairs ducting were damaged so he elected to not take a chance on the cleaning. I then verified all amps, temps, and pressures. I found the contactor had some charring and the capacitor was failing. I also found the system inrush (LRA) was out of manufactures specifications. I discussed my findings with the homeowner who agreed to replace the contactor, capacitor, and add a hard start kit. Once new devices were installed, I reverified system performance. All conditions were normal at this time of departure.
Jake K. I arrived for a thermostat not getting power problem after a tune up. I spoke with the home owner and found that they can’t turn the system on because the thermostat is blank. I inspected the system and found the drain line to be stopped up and shutting the system off on a float switch. I cleaned the drain line and found the thermostat to come on and the system to run normally. We also decided to add one surge protector on the outside system and install a compressor savor kit and clean the blower wheel indoors. After all recommended work was completed I tested the system and found it to operate properly.
Jake K. I arrived for a blue club membership no heat call. I spoke with the homeowner and found that the system will not run. I checked the system and found the unit on permit lockout due to the limit switch on the blower motor was tripping. I checked the motor and found that the motor is ,locked up. I let the homeowner know what the first issue is and that it’s about 1/3 of the cost of a heater replacement. We decided to look at the cost of a new heater and compare that to today’s repair. We decided to only go with the diagnostic fee at this time so he can get with his wife and decide to repair or replace this 19 year old furnace.
Completed dryer vent cleaning for the Sommer family. Arrived to jobsite and spoke with Mr.Sommers. He was getting a new dryer and was wanting a dryer vent cleaning since he’s never had it. Performed an inspection and confirmed to Mr.Sommers using via pictures to help him decide to continue with cleaning today. After confirmation, I took apart dryer vent piping and used to dryer vent cleaning brush with hammer drill attachment to clean out the dryer vent and went on top and hand picked dry condensed lint at the top as well before putting everything back and recapping with MrSommers what I did using photos to show. After completing job, I made sure I completed everything before closing out with Mr.Sommers and once confirmed, I packed up all my things and moved onto the next. 04/02/24 -Jeremiah V.
Today I had the pleasure of maintaining a 13 year old carrier heat pump and condenser unit. Upon arrival, the homeowner asked about duct cleaning in regards to if it’s necessary and if it’s possible in his home. I explained that duct cleaning should typically be conducted every 3-5 years and that even though he has floor vents, duct cleaning is possible. He also had concerns with his REME HALO UV light. He wasn’t sure if it was operating and felt he needed to replace the bulb. I verified that the bulb was still illuminated and didn’t need to be replaced. He then asked about the process of rewrapping his return vents in the attic. I explained that we don’t typically rewrap ducts. He remembered that the last technician gave him a quote to replace the return ducts and stated he’d rather do it when he has to replace his system. He then asked if we conducted water tank flushing because another company gave him an estimate for the service but he wasn’t satisfied with the price. I explained t
Today I had the pleasure of conducting maintenance on a 13-year old Lennox heat pump and condenser unit. Upon arrival, the homeowner stated that the system had been working fine. I noticed the home had 4 electrostatic filters and asked the homeowner if she had replacement pads and has replaced filter prior to my arrival Upon visual inspection, I found the blower assembly and ducts dirty and in need of cleaning. I then verified all amps, temps, and pressures. Upon diagnostics, I found the gas valve operating out of manufacturer’s specifications and made adjustments accordingly. After discussing my findings with the homeowner, I recommended blower assembly and duct cleaning. Homeowner would like to think it over before committing. The system is operating to the best of its ability at the time of departure under the current conditions. I took pride in fulfilling your heating and air needs and I appreciate the opportunity to inspect and operate on your system. -Kevin
