Acworth, GA

During our visit, the customer mentioned she has been noticing water pooling up on the back patio. After running water from the upstairs bathroom, I noticed water dripping from the exterior wall. Considering the location of the pipe, we had to do a leak search from the exterior wall. After removing the siding we could see the wall was completely rotted out with mold. I finally located two holes in 3” pvc drain stack that is in the wall. Appears that someone previously drilled two holes in the pipe and used silicone to repair it. A small section of the pipe was cut out and replaced. After the drain repair was complete, we tested water pressure which read. 110 psi. The customer agreed to have us go ahead and replace the Prv. A new dual chamber pressure reducing valve was installed along with a new main shutoff valve. These repairs were tested for leaks after completion.

I was called out to Terry’s house to replace the zone board, dampers, install a bypass, DATS, coil safety, and wet switch. Based on our findings today, it might be time to think about getting a brand new system.

Annual Inspection of 1 HVAC System Checked Heating and Cooling. Customer changes own filter. Checked water safety and flushed drain line. Checked refrigerant levels in first and second stage. Checked heat strips and outdoor electrical. Offered HomeCare Blower is dirty and needs cleaned. Outdoor disconnect could use upgrading.

Today we performed a troubleshoot on a tripping gfci circuit, separated neutrals in the main and sub panels, moved two circuits from the sub panel to the main panel, and replaced a customer supplied gfci outlet.

I was called out to Terry’s house for a cooling issue. Terry let me know the zoning seems to be having issues with the dampers not opening and closing properly. During the thorough evaluation we discovered the furnace is from 2009 and the ac is from 2012 making them past normal life expectancy, the zone board has significant visible heat stress, there isn’t any flood protection, the plenums are duct board and are dirty, the ductwork is undersized for the system, the inducer is rusting through its seal, the ac is missing its locking caps and its disconnect, and the heat exchanger is in poor condition meaning it may fail in the near future making it unsafe to use for heat. Due to the advanced age, cost of potential repairs, and lack of warranty replacement is a viable option to update the system to today’s standards.

Arrived for no cooling. Zoned system in attic was freezing Lineset out to condenser. System is low on R-454B leaking around schrader valve for suction line. Inspected furnace heat exchanger, ductwork, zoning system and electrical. Supply and return do not have enough ductwork for 4 ton system. Both supply and return are almost a ton short on airflow. 90% furnace has a failed primary heat exchanger as seen in images. Parts of the heat exchanger have fallen off and show signs of holding to much heat. Low levels of carbon monoxide were detected after checking gas pressures and testing furnace operation. Honeywell zone board has light flashing on purge indicating failed Discharge Air Temperature Sensor. Also recommended installing proper flood protection on attic system. Recommended having install supervisor quote furnace replacement in addition to correcting ductwork. Informed homeowner of findings and recommendations.

Camera inspection from front existing clean out

Arrived for no cooling. Inspected zoned Carrier system in attic. Zone board is missing D.A.T.S., Discharge air temperature sensor. Attic system does not adequate flood protection, only has a pan switch installed. Zoned system does not have an by-pass damper and is recommended by Honeywell. Inspected condenser electrical and refrigerant levels. Condenser coil is dirty and recommended cleaning. The 45/5mf dual capacitor has failed and needs replacing to get cooling running. Informed homeowner of issues found and presented estimates for repairs. Replaced dual capacitor it given temperature was in the low 40’s and could not accurately read refrigerant pressures. Recommend scheduling condenser coil cleaning for a warmer day. Emailed estimates and today’s invoice to Viraj as his mother was the only person on site today.

For this job we ran a trouble shoot we found a wire pinched under a pipe that caused some abrasion which was the reason for the living room outlets not working tripping breaker.

Did a home care inspection. Customer had issues with a drip faucet in guest bathroom. With customer approval I installed a moen 1225 shower cartridge. Once installed I check for leaks no other issues was found thanks for choosing TE Certified.

Troubleshoot: Ran a new coax line from the utility box directly is to the office on the backside for a dedicated run from the xfinity line for the home.

Remove section of 3” pvc in crawl where two 45 connections are leaking and install new piping/connections. Remove existing strapping in area and set piping at proper slope then add necessary hangers and support. Also remove section of 3” pvc where coupling is leaking just before clean out on horizontal run in crawl space. If we can manage replacing a smaller section and still catch grade, we can reduce the price to reflect the scope of work (best case 2500) Removed section of pipe that was bowed from strapping and all leaking fitting. We replaced these sections with brand new pvc. Ensured the pipe was pitched correctly and was no longer leaking. Cleaned up work area.

No cool on the upstairs system, due to a leak in the system. System is 24 years old and works with r22 Freon. Also, compressor has high amperage, condenser fan motor also (high amperage), dual capacitor going weak (42 on a 45 microfarad). System is freezing up and not cooling the house. Best option would be to upgrade the system, and bring savings comfort and efficiency back to the house. New systems come with 10 years warranty and WiFi thermostat. Set a lead to quote upgrading for tomorrow after 9am. We should credit back 98,00 spent today, if customer replace the system with us.

Replaced communicating TRANE thermostat. Calibrated thermostat to communicating settings. Verified cooling operation. Also verified heating operation with Daikin fit system to ensure homeowners will have heating during cold spell next week, while we wait on the outdoor board. Thank you for choosing TE certified!

No cool. Only system, 2 zones (zone board is bypassed and both thermostats controls the system). Turned system on cool mode, and system works. Main level thermostat is not calling for cool, only fan works. Upstairs thermostat is working fine. Outside condenser is very dirty, dual capacitor is weak (reading 38 on a 40 microfarad) and no in line switch ( drain line was clogged and I was able to unclog, but it can clog again during hot days). Furnace is 21 years old and ac 8 years old. Also, zone board is bad and it was bypassed by the last tech. As of repair, recommend to install a wet switch, replace dual capacitor, do a chemical wash on the outside condenser and replace main level thermostat. Also, replace zone board, and have thermostats working separately. But, due to the be of the system, highly recommend to upgrade at least the furnace , to make house more comfortable and system more efficient. Also, recommend to sign up for home care maintenance program.

Upon arrive I installed a Gfci breaker for pool, installed 2 GFCI, and installed dimmer in theater

Homeowner was experiencing a high water bill. After assessment, the homeowner spotted water pooling near the walkway in the from yard which indicated water loss from a ruptured pipe. We abandoned the old main waterline and installed a new sleeved HDPE water line. We also replaced the PRV, Main shutoff and Hose Bibb shutoff. The pressure was set to 65psi. All work was tested and checked for leaks. There were no other leaks present at this time.

Home care completed on two systems. Flushed and cleared upstairs drain line. Several potential issues noticed with main floor system. Discussed and presented all options. Necessary repairs made with approval. System is currently operational. Thank you for choosing TE certified!

For this job, I installed a customer supplied kitchen faucet, and installed a badger garbage disposal. I performed work, and tested everything.

In the back closet come off the existing 20 amp quad circuit and complete a circuit extension to the left of the door and wire in and install (2) new location outlets, (1) up high near the light fixture and (1) down low. We will have to make an incision into the wall due to framing in order to fish the new wires and we will install a new plate when completed. In the closet adjacent from the panel room wire in and install a new dedicated 20 amp circuit utilizing a CH duel function breaker.

Replaced switch in garage, gave estimate for whole home redevice due to speed wire and adding a new flood light

On arrival I found that the customer didn’t have pressure out the shower head. With customer approval I removed the shower head to find that it was completely clog. After clearing out the debris I removed the water saver out the shower head as well no other issue was found thanks for choosing TE certified.

Today we ran a new 60 amp circuit from the panel to the garage where we installed a customer supplied Tesla Charger
