Looking at the pictures more closely it is not even the date of when they were here. I had a small locally owned independent company come out to give me their opinion. They found NO cracks and stated the duct work is totally sufficient for my home. I feel I was perhaps scammed. Independent contactor restarted furnace and ran carbon monoxide test and detected absolutely no carbon monoxide. I hesitate but am inclined to inform authorities of possible deceptive business practice.

Technician showed up an hour and 15 min late, shrugged shoulders saying he had a long drive across town. Said it would take him an hour for the check-up on the AC, but he'd try to hurry. He was done in less than 15 minutes so I question how thorough he was. Did not review any of his findings. Did not ask if I had any questions, but asked if I wanted to renew my yearly check-up ... and I said definitely not. Also, was not contacted about my yearly AC check-up until August ... at the tail end of the summer. If I had problems with my AC, they should have been doing check-ups early in the season. In the past, the technicians have been wonderful, but this guy was awful.

It's very nice to have someone sit down and explain things to me, he didn't rush and I felt like he cared about the service he was providing, he's great

The airflow packages and pricing vary per job. They also wouldn’t make sense to customers if a customer doesn’t know what’s going on. Only way for customer to understand wahatsngoinf on Andy the pricing included would be if we go over that stuff with them. That said we don’t just email prices because that would be in vain.
Showed customer failed airflow readings and why we were getting those readings. We talked about options and what could be done and what was most cost efficient. Customer would like a second set of eyes on heat exchanager. I left customer my number and set up a follow up call for next week.
Arrived for AC MAINTENANCE. Ran static pressure test and found it to be operating above designer max static. We opened up vents in the home and installed a clean filter. Static pressure dropped some but is still failing. With the inspection camera we found a crack in the heat exchanger. Showed home owner the crack and signed a red tag. Called out supervisor to finish diagnosis on static pressure. Ran amp draw on outdoor unit and everything passed. Good charge on refrigerant. Performed coil cleaning. AC is operating well at this time, furnace is disabled due to unsafe operating conditions.
Ductless System Installation: Responding to a client's need for targeted cooling, we suggested and installed a ductless air conditioning system. This addressed their desire for zone-specific climate control, ensuring customized comfort throughout the home. Routine maintenance checks were recommended to uphold the system's efficiency.
During maintenance I found that the customer flu pipe is in need of change left customer a quote. Everything else checked out nothing in need of attention today except what was explained
Furnace maintenance CO readings 0PPM, cleaned flame sensor, inspected burner compartment, inspected gas valve and pressures, inspected flue pipe, inspected draft inducer motor, inspected limits and safeties, checked all electrical connections, inspected pressure, switch, inspected heat exchanger, inspected blower wheel and blower motor, inspected circuitboard, tested amp draws, checked filter, cycled unit for proper operation
AC Maintenance Service: As part of AC maintenance, I conducted a thorough inspection of the refrigerant levels. I ensured that the refrigerant was at the correct level, which is crucial for optimal cooling performance and preventing potential damage to the system.
Replace the 240,000 btu dual circuit evaporator in the Lennox air handler serial 5616B05048. Price includes the factory replacement evaporator coil, liquid line filter dryers, evacuation, new R410a and labor. New evaporator covered by a one year parts and labor warranty.
Arrived to do a performance maintenance. Started inspection outside and verified operation of all mechanical and electronic components of the condenser. Checked the condenser for cleanliness. Moved inspection inside and measured a temperature split between return and supply air. Performed an enthalpy calculation and found that the system was not cooling at maximum capacity. Measured power consumption of the blower motor and checked system for cleanliness. Rinsed coil free of debris. Performed a final calibration on the systems refrigerant charge. See estimates for recommended repairs. Air conditioning system is functioning properly at this time.
Arrived at customers house to perform routine tuneup. Checked all electrical components and they were operating within manufacture specifications. Checked refrigerant levels which appeared low. The outdoor coil was very dirty so I performed an ECC and also re-leveled the unit. After cleaning the outdoor coil, I rechecked the refrigerant levels And they were well within the proper settings. Checked static, which was a bit high however, supervisors will be scheduled to make a visit. Thank you for choosing LBA!
Brought the pressure up to 250lbs, and searched for the leak in the evaporator using bubbles. The evap coil was exposed and the bubbles were applied to everything including both circuits, thermal expansion valves, cap tubes, end elbows, line sets next to the unit and outside at the condenser. I was unable to detect a leak using the bubbles. I did release the nitrogen (down to 50psi equalized) after the leak search and opened the low pressure switch circuit for the #1 compressor. This was done to protect it from starting while it has no refrigerant. AHU m/n TAA240S4D-1Y S/n 5616B05048
During this visit I discovered that compressor #1 was not operating due to a low pressure safety switch (18psi). I checked the schrader valves and braze joints outside. The inside braze joints, capillary tubes and the coil elbows that were accessible were checked. I did find that the evap coil is leaking refrigerant. A video was taken and is in service titan.

Arrived to install the fm2 remote mount UVA UVB & UVC light system. Determined mounting points for the separate bulbs and the ballast. Cut protrusion holes in the ductwork for the bulbs. Applied insulation tape around the holes and mounted the two bulbs. Mounted the ballast and cut away any excess insulation tape. Ran wires as out of sight as possible and wired the system to the furnace control board. UV lights will only come on when the fan is in operation. Applied power to the furnace and tested system operation. Furnace and UV system are functioning properly at this time.

Arrived to do performance maintenance. Inspected the condensation drain line for flow. Inspected system air filter and replaced the filter media. Verified operation of all mechanical and electronic components in the furnace. Checked blower for cleanliness and to see if there is any play in the bearings. Checked system heat exchanger to ensure proper venting of flue gas. Checked air conditioning coil for cleanliness and to see if there are any restrictions to airflow. Found that the underside of the air conditioning coil has bacterial growth present. Recommended installing a UV bulb to remove any bacterial growth. Analyzed the combustion gas to ensure safe and efficient flame. Performed an electronic gas leak search. Cleaned the exterior of the furnace and water heater. With homeowners approval reached out to the office to order the remote mount bulb and once parts arrive will reach out to the homeowner to schedule a time for installation. Furnace is operating properly at this time. Vie
On Wednesday, December 28, 2022 at about 1 PM company came out to just open the main line by cabling and run a Camera inspection. There was one tree route intrusion right at the foundation we got it open the line is flowing it’s for a friend of mine so he actually didn’t want any repairs at this time but will definitely always call us back
