Hampton, GA Electrical Service And Repairs

For today’s job I did a home care inspection. I also installed an outlet in the upstairs bedroom closet from an existing circuit in the attic.

Based on our findings today, it might be time to think about getting a brand new system. Gas company came out and shut off the valve to the system. Found flame sensor to be dirty. Zone dampers do not close when thermostat satisfies. Lots of bacterial growth in system. Heat exchanger is rusted out. Inducer is over anmoing. Gas connections are very old and corroded. Outdoor coil is very dirty. Do not recommend repairs due to cost and warranty purposes.

Came out today to perform a two system HVAC service call for for no heat. Upon inspection of the upstairs system found that the furnace is from 2006 Rheem, coil that is a carrier, and outdoor system is a Amana from 2018. Upon inspection of the system, customer stated that he had recently just had both thermostats replaced. I found both thermostats properly wired up and set up in the settings proper. This thermostat was turning on the system and cool, but the blower motor would not run, upon further inspection, the system was not sending any signal to turn the system on on heat, upon testing them system found that the indoor blower wheel is dirty, there is no TE standard flood protection, the indoor capacitor for the system was OK. Due to no airflow could not properly diagnose any refrigerant charge. Also inspected the downstairs system, which is a Rheem gas furnace from 2006 with AC and coil from 2007. This system is a R 22 system and R 22 is obsolete. Upon further inspection of this

Installed new gfci breaker and redid taps for lv wire to transformer

Arrived and found water damage to ceiling in foyer by the front door. Issue is coming from the upstairs master bathroom tub spout, which is spraying water back inside the wall when tub is diverted to the shower. Tub spout is worn out and needs replaced. Replaced tub spout and caulked around. Tested and inspected, no other leaks. Customer has a $100 discount due to moving the appointment. Referred mitigation for water damages.

Client has us out today because the master stand up shower leaks when someone uses it. He had a plumber out who opened the ceiling where the water was leaking down through but did not make any repairs. The client noticed a crack in the shower pan but used a repair kit to fix the crack. When we tested the shower we could not get it to leak however when we simulated someone taking a shower you can see the flex in the shower pan around the drain. Found that the top side shower drain is just hand tight. Quoted the client and today we just went with replacing the shower drain and p trap. Water is back on with no leaks.

Responded to a service call to troubleshoot multiple electrical issues, including a non-functional ceiling fan light, three inoperative outlets, two GFCI outlets that were no longer tripping, and a faulty light switch in the master bedroom closet. Upon thorough diagnostics, determined that several devices had failed due to poor backstab wiring practices and age (original to the home). Replaced three technician-supplied outlets and plates, two customer-supplied GFCI outlets, and two customer-supplied switches. Provided a discount to account for customer-provided materials. All systems were tested and verified to be in proper working order.

Neighbor of the home owner called me out for a clogged toilet. Upon inspection I tested for a mainline blockage and found no evidence of one. Used the toilet auger to pull back a wipe that was lodged in the toilet. Flushed fine with and without toilet paper. Home owner is receiving end of life care. Gave the neighbor the cheapest price I could. The neighbor was satisfied with my findings and results. The toilet is operational and works as it should. Did the hallway bath toilet as a courtesy to the home owner.

Troubleshoot outlets and light in the upstairs hallway, bedroom and upstairs sitting area. Found loose wire on outlet in bedroom. Rewired outlet and recommended to do the re-device the entire home to reduce potential hazards and inconveniences.

Came out for no cool call on upstairs unit. Customer let us know nest tstat going out and says it reads “no RC power”. Upon checking unit could not find any cause for tstat to go out. Verified tstat wires tightly connected. Verified float switch not activated and no water in pan. Could be tstat itself giving intermittent issues however the whole time we were here troubleshooting, tstat did not go out and did call for cooling properly. Upon checking all equipment for upstairs unit found they have original 2008 R22 Lennox 3.5ton air handler and newly Installed 2024 4ton Goodman heat pump. Checked system pressures and appears to be low. Took a look at indoor coil was already showing signs of freezing up. Recommend TE flood protection to avoid possible water damage to ceilings. Main recommendation is to have install supervisor come out to give quote for replacing R22 air handlers due to age and obsolete refrigerant. Educated customer on refrigerants and how R22 has been obsolete since 2020

Came out today because customer found water in his basement around his AC unit. Upon inspection of the system found Goodman system from 2010. Heat pump air handler. Upon testing the system found system was about 2 pounds low on 410 a, the outdoor contactor had stuck together, causing the system to run all the time, even when no call was presented, the outdoor capacitor was weak. It was a 70/5and it was reading 31/4.5. The indoor capacitor for the blower motor was also bad, this was a 25 mfd and evading 21. This system also had no UV protection time presenting all options to homeowner. He decided to do the Band-Aid repair. Will need to return Monday to install a new 25MFD blower capacitor. System is up and running, and once we return with the parts, there will be no other immediate issues with this system.

Severely burned outlet in kitchen, box melted as well as receptacle, not a backstabbed outlet, strange rust and oxidation on the receptacle makes me believe that something may have been poured on to it from the top, not a typical failure. This outlet had clearly been burning for awhile, the metal inside the burn area had oxidized, clearly showing that this had been there for some great length of time, wherein there would have been clear burning and smoke coming from the outlet. This had been sitting for way longer than any failed outlet should be and the outlet should have been fixed immediately.

Came out today to give a quote and do a full inspection on system. Upon arrival, customer stated that he already had another company out here. That told him there is a leak of refrigerant in the system somewhere. Upon inspection of the system, found the system still working, but very low on refrigerant and not very efficient. Also, upon inspection found that the indoor capacitor is bad, the blower will has very minimal buildup, there is no TE standard flood protection, this is a zone system. Upon inspection of the outdoor system found that the outdoor capacitor is, the condenser coal has minimal buildup. Presenting all options to the customer today he only chose to add refrigerant to the system, customer is aware that there is no warranty on 410 a, customer is also aware the drain is draining slowly and I recommended cleaning. Upon adding refrigerant to the system, added 2 lbs. 14 oz. to the system.

homeowner had us out today because their main floor system is not cooling properly. Upon arrival we noticed that there is a system that is from 2006. We found that the outdoor fan motor which was recently replaced by a third-party company had failed. We also noticed that the capacitor for the system was installed incorrectly and left inside of a box. We noticed that both outdoor condensers are very dirty and will need to be clean. We also noticed some biological growth on the inside of the system and recommended installing the Apco X air purifier. The contactor for the system was burned out and also needed to be replaced. Homeowner approved to have all repairs made. After repairs were made, we cycled the system to verify proper operation. System is cooling at time of departure.

Ran water lines in garage for dog washing station.

came out to a no cool. The customer explained to me that he change out the thermostat without killing the power to the air handler. I checked the air handler and the 3 amp fuse was popped. I continued to perform a full diagnostic check in the system and here are my findings. I found that the indoor unit was sound and in good shape. The indoor unit did not have UV protection nor did it have TE flood protection. I found that the system was draining properly. i checked the out door unit and the capacitor was out of range and need to be replaced. This causes stress on the compressor so i’d like to install a hard start kit on this unit as well. The outdoor unit also needs to be cleaned. Last i’d like to sign the customer up for a preventative maintenance Home Care plan.
