Inspected home and existing HVAC system. Discussed client expectations for new system installation. Worked with management to develop best options for system replacement to meet client needs.

Client says mini split that was just installed a few weeks ago by his cousin is not cooling adequately. Inspected system and it’s blowing out 55° air and is working fine, system is undersized for space. Should have an 18 K or 24K mini split installed to keep the whole area cooled. Also client wanted to have RTU’s looked at. The 10 ton system is not that old and wants quarterly maintenance done on it. Noticed the evaporator coil was very dirty, gave client estimate to do quarterly maintenance and chemically clean and power wash evaporator coil.

Called tech support and went over entire system Shane states that the evaporator coil and EEV needs replacing due to the temperature difference between the bottom of coil tubing to the top of coil. Also the LLT AND LSAT is way too high. Cleaned condenser coils and dropped head pressure over 100PSI But still no dramatic change in subcool or sh. Need to return with new evaporator coil and EEV under warranty and remove entire charge replace filter dryer.

Performed tuneup on AC system. Clean indoor and outdoor coils, flushed drain line, inspected blower wheel, checked temperatures, checked refrigerant pressures, inspected all major in minor electrical components. Found biological growth buildup in drain pan, compressor has high startup amps, and dual run capacitor is weak. Gave client solutions for issues with system. Client will look over options and get back to us if the system fails.

Measured home and room sizes for correct duct sizing.

Diagnostic completed. Mini split heads significant impacted by growth, restricted airflow likely causing system and lineset freeze. Unable to measure refrigerant levels accurately with head condition. Client reports having cleaned head units around a year ago. Recommend deep cleaning head units and installing UV sterilization LED strips in each head after cleaning to prevent recurrence. Advised that system is 15 years old and recommended considering replacement of mini split system with Daikin model. Discussed Dailin extended warranty and available financing options. Client wishes to discuss options with spouse who is unavailable at time of service.

Client wants separate circuit install installed for AC system and surge protector installed on package unit.

AC is not keeping up the temp in the house. Thermostat set to 72° and is not getting below 75°. Did a complete evaluation of AC system. Could not find any issues with system itself. Temperatures and pressures are OK, air filter is clean. System is slightly oversized for home, however, original system was a 2 1/2 ton as well. Did notice that the ductwork is undersized and is damaged at certain parts in attic. Noticed some kinks and squashed ductwork in attic as well as low amount of insulation. Recommend replacing all ductwork and blowing in R 38 insulation in attic to resolve issue. Also the return duct is undersized for the size system. Should have a 16 inch return. There is a 14 inch return in there right now. Client is going to review estimate and follow up with tomorrow.

Diagnostic completed. On arrival began diagnostic. Home 90° internal ambient. Activated system and measured refrigerant levels. Inspected evaporator and found filter missing and coil impacted.

All services completed and balance collected via cc. No further action necessary at this time.

Arrived to find system set at 74 and was 75 in home Clients husband stated that system has been performing well but has had a higher electric bill. Ran system in check out mode to verify systems charge is accurate. Made client aware Freon seems to be okay but is hard to tell due to very dirty condenser coils. Also advised that the head pressure is really high. Made client aware that is like running you car with a piece of card board in front of the radiator and will make the car over heat and become very inefficient. Made client aware of a maintenance plan again to return out (2) times a year and perform coil cleanings and checking of entire system to avoid system break downs. Client stated he wants to clean coils himself
