Woodstock, GA – Electrical, Plumbing & HVAC Service

No Cool Visit - Main/Basement Equipment is completely flat on refrigerant indicating a severe refrigerant leak. Advised customer will have to perform a nitrogen leak check to confirm where the leak or leaks exist. Based upon the age of the equipment and the cost of repairs strongly, recommend looking into replacement options.

We arrived on site with the customer complaining of flickering lights. After a troubleshoot, we determined that the issue was a damaged part in the meter can. We left multiple quotes for service upgrades and meter replacements.

For this job the customer stated that one of the gas lanterns located on the front porch was not lighting. Going into the attic we isolated the copper line that was running to the lantern. Removing the flared fitting from the gas line in the attic showed there was adequate gas, however, disconnecting the line at the lantern itself showed no signs of gas flow. To remedy the situation we disconnected the gas line at both ends and pressurized the line with air. A large amount of debris was pushed out the line and once reconnected the lantern was functioning properly. I also spoke with the customer about the pressure issue for the home which was due to an aged pressure regulator and failed expansion tank. The customer is considering the options and will let us know in the near future.

Completed a 1 system Homecare and cleaned the condenser coil. We were out a few weeks back and completed a comprehensive evaluation of the systems performance. We arrived back onsite today to completed quoted repairs. We deep cleaned the condensing unit to take some stress off of the condenser during calls for cooling. We began by removing the large debris from the coils, sprayed chemical cleaner and deep cleaned the remainder of the coils removing all dust, dirt and debris from the condensing unit. System is operating properly and home is satisfied at 73 degrees. Payment collected via credit card. Call complete.

Customer will have Sheetrock removed prior for access. Will install tee and extend cold water supply from basement to kitchen for ice maker, connect, and test for operation. 6-26-26 replaced hosebib on exterior wall of garage as courtesy.

Initial observations of 3 zone system revealed water in the auxiliary drain pan. 20x22x1 filter is currently clean. Drain line is clogged and requires clearing and reconfiguration for proper flow and easy cleaning. There is insufficient flood protection and recommend upgrading with an inline switch and wet switch for the pan replacing the existing float switch as this switch allows too much water to fill the pan before shutting the system off. This leaves the pan vulnerable for overflowing or leaking onto the ceiling below. Cycled all 3 zones in cooling and system is slightly low in refrigerant. The evaporator coil temperature is below freezing at 31 degrees and this will cause inefficiencies. Complimentary leak test revealed refrigerant leaks at the evaporator coil. This system is only 4 years old, however it is only single stage equipment with 3 separate zones. This causes inefficiencies and stress on the system as it attempts to heat/cool a small zone and cannot regulate its airflo

Check out power outlet if is ok to use for laminator

Installed whole home surge protection

Performed spring maintenance on whole home system. Replaced air filter, checked blower wheel for built up dirt/dust, cleaned flame sensor, cleared inducer port, tested hot surface igniter, took delta Ts, cleared drain line, tested safety switch, tested all electrical components, tightened all electrical connections, took running volts/amps, checked refrigerant pressures, and monitored systems operations. Replaced thermostat with Ecobee The subcool and superheat are high. The suction pressure is low, the head pressure is a bit low, delta T is low. Consequently system has a liquids line restriction. Needs to replace TXV an filter drier to mitigate issue. No wet safety swich

Arrived on site to troubleshoot a system that wasn’t working properly a few weeks back. Recently the system has been running normally but a few weeks ago they had the thermostat set to 76 and inside got up to 84. It’s a 9 year old Lennox without any faults or failures. Operating pressures were good with a 14 degree superheat and 9 degree subcool. Temp split wan22 degrees and the filter and drains were clean. The blower capacitor is out of spec and the condenser coils would benefit from a wash but as it stands today there is no mechanical or electrical issues causing performance drawbacks. We were unable to reverse engineer or duplicate the issues from last week but today the system ran flawlessly.

For this Job, I replaced a ceiling fan. Everything was tested and is working properly.

Added 20 amp circuits and outlete

No cool upstairs unit. Previously service with replacing blower motor last week. Upon arrival asked customer what was happening. Customer stated drain pan was full of water and it was leaking down from evap coil. I Had previously flushed drain line on last visit. Customer stated system has been off for two days since it was discovered. Upon inspection found system to have debris from evap coil falling apart to have clogged drain in evap coil allowing the drain pan to still be holding water after two days of not running. Informed customer. Waived cleaning charge in lieu of customer signing up for Homecare. Cleaned drain pan with vacuum getting as much debris as possible out of pan, then flushed drain pan with 2 gallons of coil cleaner and water mixture. Pumped drain as well and flushed again with more water and coil cleaner mixture ensure drain to be as clear as possible. Informed customer that more debris would fall as system is way past life expectancy and coil is very rusty.

Customer called us out for a clog exiting the grease trap under the triple sink in the kitchen. On arrival the trap was full and not draining. I gave the customer an estimate and they agreed. I removed the piping going into the floor from the grease trap and ran my flex shaft into the baffle. The baffle is coated in grease. I successfully restored flow from the grease trap, tested and cleaned throughly. Customer also had a leaky faucet that I tightened.

The customer had lost power to the GFCI outlet left of the stove and also the kitchen island. We preformed a minor troubleshoot to verify that power was still present on the line side of the device and it was. We noticed that a black mark, indicating damage was done on the device. To correct this we supplied and installed a new GFCI outlet and tested the safety feature. I am highly suggesting to have a lifetime warranty surge protector installed at the main panel.

Remove Sheetrock in basement closet to expose shutoff valve and water piping. Install new 3/4” shutoff valve, pressure regulator, and connect back to existing copper. Remove two 3/4 grey poly valves in drop ceiling and hard pipe back together. In this same area, remove grey poly coupling/piping and install shutoff valve for hose bib. Customer is aware of the concerns and issues with the remaining water piping and possibilities of other leaks happening while the water is being turned on and off, TE is responsible for existing water/drain piping. Will also look at water supply for ice maker 6-23-26 Fridge box is hooked up to dead grey poly line. New line will have to be ran from basement for supply.

For this job, we ran a 30 amp circuit out to the back side of the house and installed a disconnect for a future sauna.

For this job, I replaced (4) smoke detectors and installed (5) smoke detectors. Everything was tested and is working properly.

Arrived to a no cool under 10 commercial package system Rheem 2023. Owner is saying system kept freezing up. Came across dirty filters. Also sensing bulb was not located in correctly and not insulated. Found my vsat temp dropping as the unit was running, got a screen shot at 38 degrees but temp was dropping even more. Fixed sensing bulb and informed owner either you keep the filters at the grilles or you keep them at the unit , extra filter would just cause more restrictions. Added 8oz to the system and system pressures did not change. Added due to superheat being slighter higher. Checked my return static. Ran system for 25+ minutes, and system was no longer freezing vstat temp was sitting at 45 degrees. Fixed wiring for safeties so they are no longer bypassed. System is now cooling upon technician departure.

The bare minimum basic repairs to get the system running today. Condensate pump failed due to restricted tubing. Unable to locate the other end of tubing. With approval, the condensate pump and tubing were replaced. New tubing completely rerouted. Advised homeowners that there is not a clean out for the drain line/P-trap. There is also no water safety in the drain pan to prevent any potential flooding. Estimates for both or attached. New home care plan added. Used wet vac and mighty pump to clear upstairs drain line. Upstairs system otherwise not looked at at all on this visit. First home care visit will be this fall. Main floor system operational upon departure. Thank you for choosing TE certified!

Replaced ceiling fan

Customer called us out for a repeated gurgling noise in the master bathroom toilet. On arrival I tested all of the fixtures in the master bathroom and could not get the issue to reoccur. Customer stated they have been having this issue roughly once a week for a year. Customers master bathroom toilet also does not consistently refill the tank. I gave the customer multiple options and recommended having a sewer supervisor out to scope the line. Customer did not want to do work today or have the sewer supervisor out.

Panel restorations and label panel along with hanging a light and replacing a 20 amp outlet.

Customer noticed a water stain on the ceiling directly below the master bathroom shower. I removed the trim plate and check for leaks from the shower valve and saw no water or signs of leaking. Removed the drain and noticed that the putty had been mostly washed away and the cork and rubber seal on the bottom were both wet. I concluded that the seal between the drain body and sower base ad failed. I replaced the washers on the bottom side of the base and installed a new drain top and grate. I sealed the drain to the base with silicone to allow flexibility. I instructed the customer to not use the sower until tomorrow. Thank you for choosing TE Certified!

Upon arrival spoke with customer about their water heater that was leaking. Gave options. Removed heater from the system. Installed new heater in a pan with a water alarm with a 4 year warranty extension kit. Installed new venting and connected to heater with 3 screws per joint. Extended gas line and added new shut off valve. Installed new gas whip and sediment trap and connected to gas system. Installed new piping, shut off valve and thermal expansion tank mounted to a bracket mounted to the structure. Restored water and tested for leaks. Insulated piping with fiberglass, mounted gas line and added valve tag. Fixed 4 additional leaks in the basement on dripping copper joints.
