Licensed Electricians, Plumbers & AC Repair Company in Atlanta

Estimate is to install new Daikin Minisplit for basement and verify function for new unit.

Today I came out due to system not cooling. System is a 2009 Bryant furnace located in basement servicing whole home. Upon arrival thermostat was turned off. Turned it on AC mode and indoor unit came on but not the outdoor unit. Reason was a bad capacitor. It’s rated for 45/5MFD +/- 6% and its actual readings were 0/0. Swapped out capacitor and system kicked on. I inspected everything else and found several concerning issues. There is biological growth all over evaporator coils and outside of evaporator door. There are several cracks in the heat exchanger get and even more areas where it’s going to crack even more. Burners are rusted out, flame sensor and Ignitor have heavy carbon build up. There is no secondary drain pan underneath unit and no flood protection. Blower wheel is heavily impacted with dust and debris on fan blades. Compressor is struggling to keep up. Contactor on the outdoor unit is heavily pitted. After going over all findings and options, customer has agreed for a pro

Performed 1 system diagnostic on system that serves whole home. Found unit low on charge, broken and failed disconnect, low R22 charge, dirty blower, blower motor dirty however unit is not serviceable due to being too close to the wall, furnace is 12 years old, ac and coil is 24 years old. Due to age of system and type of refrigerant . Recommend replacement only. There are no repair options. As well as to relocated unit so it is in a more Serviceable location. Based on our findings today, it might be time to think about getting a brand new system.

Homeowner called us out to investigate possible water loss, at foundation wall. After exposing the area, I found a section of failed copper piping from the exterior leading into the interior of the home at the penetration wall. We replaced the PRV, main shut off, irrigation shut off and main waterline via bore. We dug at the meter, where we found another failed section piping, and at the penetration of the home. Everything was cleaned and tested all as well. There is no evidence of further water loss at this time. Pressure set to 65psi

Ran new section of water lines for the tub filler. Removed section of piping and ran new pex and installed ball valves to isolate. Will return Tuesday to install the tub filler.

Install a new 2 way PVC clean out on original cast iron sewer line right outside the house. Will also replace cast iron through penetration and reconnect to PVC in crawl space.

No Cool- 2022 Carrier Main floor system was not cooling when I arrived. Thermostat was reading 80° and indoor unit was running. Noticed water in the pan. Checked the outside unit and noticed oil on top of the unit and underneath. Lots of oil inside on the refrigerant lines. Performed a leak check and the factory aluminum/copper connection has failed and all the refrigerant has leaked out. Brought my findings to the customer and customer agreed to replace the coil. Coil is under manufacturer warranty. Charges are for labor and refrigerant. Customer would also like to have his HomeCare completed on the day of the main floor repair.

For today’s service, I swapped PRV that was installed by TE that would get clogged up often in the filter under warranty and put in new PRV that will not get clogged up and clean out tankless unit of scale build up by flushing the unit out. Advise to Mark to keep an eye on the toilet in the hallway that he thinks is running on and off periodically and to give us a call back to take a look at the toilet again no work was done on the toilet. Work is complete and Mark has no other plumbing issues at the moment.

Arrived at the property and spoke with the homeowner, who stated they have lived in the home for approximately five years. The homeowner mentioned experiencing a similar issue in the past, although that incident was related to the washing machine. Today, the homeowner reported waking up and noticing water dripping from the living room ceiling. A leak diagnostic was performed, which required cutting access openings in the sheetrock ceiling to expose the plumbing. The homeowner was informed and acknowledged that TE Certified is not responsible for sheetrock repairs or replacement. Due to the way water travels and collects at the lowest point, the initial area where water was dripping did not contain any plumbing. A second saturated area was identified closer to the front door, and an additional access opening was made. Upon inspection, we found two 1/2" hot and cold water service lines supplying both the washing machine and the utility faucet located directly above. No leaks were found

Customer called us out for a clog g in the same bathroom in the basement. I inspected the sewage ejector pump closer and found that the sewage was getting stopped by a pipe that was to close. I recommended repiping the ejector to provide more space for the sewage leaving the bathroom grouping. Customer agreed. I got the supplies I would need. I removed the lid, cut the parts of the pipe that I wouldn’t need out, rotated where the pump was, reinstalled the lid and gasket, screwed them down, put in the new check valve ball valve combo, built the vent up, rerouted the discharge line, put all gaskets around the pipes and wire, tested everything and cleaned up.
