Leak coming on 2 inch main gas line found with gas sniffer and soap test. It was in a bad spot so we had to shut the gas down bleed the gas out so no sparks and cut out bad 2 inch BLk tee. After getting it all put back together we turned the gas on half way and tested for leaks. We then put it full and tested again. No leaks at the moment. Brad hit a conduit line behind the gas line that controls the heater. I believe they are calling an electrician. We came this morning to fix the leaks but as we were setting up the guys came up to us and said they smell gas again even when the gas meter was turned off. We diagnosed multiple things and narrowed it down to one of there machines causing the bad smell. It wasn’t a gas. Nicor came back out and tested things and found that there was a bad regulator out side. We pressure tested the system up to 10 psi and it dropped slowly so the leaks are still prevalent. We talked with there managers and they still want to continue on fixing the leaks asa

Medical center plumbing repair. The hot water sides in Suites 440 and 450 were not working at all sinks. Had to pull all supply lines from angle stops and bleed sediment from all lines till water was clear. Also had to pull all mixing valves under sinks and clear screens from debris. I identified 3 faucets with blockages in the faucet itself and replaced 3 customer-supplied faucets in unit 450. After everything was cleared and replaced, I ran water for 30 minutes to ensure everything was working properly. Everything has been tested, cleaned, and is working as expected. The hot water line was completely full of sediment, while the cold water side was minimal. I blew the system out from all angles under the sinks.

Boiler repair, no heat call. Found chimney damper motor not engaging and opening the damper. Manually opened the damper and switched it over to hold open for now. Will need to order a new motor. Also, the customer would like to replace the sump pumps (3) in the sump room/pit. The system is up and running, and heating at this time.
