Plumbing & HVAC in House Springs, MO

Responded to service call for air conditioning unit not activating when thermostat temperature was adjusted. Upon arrival, inspected 10-year-old ground-level outdoor condensing unit located on side of property. Performed visual assessment of condenser coil, which showed moderate dust and debris accumulation between fins, and noted corrosion on mounting hardware and frame components. Examined accessible ductwork in utility area, observing significant dust buildup on flexible aluminum ducting. System evaluated for electrical connectivity and thermostat communication issues to determine cause of activation failure.

Performed inspection of 6-year-old ground-level air conditioning unit in response to customer concerns regarding potential mold contamination on coils and vents. Upon inspection, discovered significant biological growth and debris accumulation in the condensate drain pan, including yellowish-brown organic material and algae buildup concentrated around the drain connection point. Documented conditions with photographs showing contaminated drain pan with fibrous growth on surfaces and around PVC drain fitting. Inspected refrigerant lines, insulation, and air handler interior components for additional mold or moisture concerns.

Responded to service call for reported furnace leak causing damage to flooring in utility closet. Upon arrival, inspected 10+ year old Carrier furnace unit and identified condensate drainage issue. Found PVC condensate drain lines with improper pitch and potential blockage causing water to back up and overflow onto floor. Cleared condensate drain obstruction, verified proper drainage flow, and tested system operation through complete heating cycle. Inspected secondary drain pan for cracks or damage. Checked all pipe connections and joints for leaks. Advised customer of flooring damage caused by prolonged water exposure and recommended monitoring system closely. System restored to proper operation with condensate draining correctly.

Responded to no cooling complaint on residential split system with Janitrol air handler and outdoor condensing unit. Upon arrival, confirmed unit was not operating. Performed complete system diagnostics including electrical testing, refrigerant pressure checks, and component inspection. Identified failed capacitor on outdoor condenser unit preventing compressor operation. Replaced defective dual run capacitor with proper OEM specification replacement. Verified proper amperage draw on compressor and fan motor. Tested system operation through complete cooling cycle, confirmed adequate airflow at registers, and verified proper temperature split across evaporator coil. System restored to full operational status with normal cooling capacity.

Completed comprehensive cooling system tune-up on 11-year-old outdoor AC unit. Performed standard maintenance protocol including inspection of condenser coil, refrigerant levels, electrical connections, and capacitor function. Verified proper airflow through supply registers and inspected return air filter (16x20x1 pleated filter found in serviceable condition). System operating within normal parameters upon completion of preventive maintenance service.

Completed annual preventative maintenance on 3-year-old Lennox air conditioning system. Performed comprehensive tune-up including electrical diagnostics with amp draw measurements, verified proper voltage and current readings on all components, inspected and tested capacitor functionality, and evaluated overall system performance. Unit found operating within manufacturer specifications with no deficiencies noted.

Performed complimentary second opinion evaluation on residential air conditioning system located in side yard. Unit is a Goodman model RP1548AJ1NA manufactured in July 2018, operating on 208/230V with R-410A refrigerant.

Completed comprehensive cooling system tune-up on 10-year-old AC unit located at side of home. Performed standard maintenance protocol including electrical diagnostics with digital clamp meter, recording amperage draws to verify compressor and condenser fan motor operation within manufacturer specifications. All measurements indicated normal operating parameters, system tested and confirmed operational.

# Service Report: No Heat Call - Furnace Malfunction Responded to a no heat service call for a 30-year-old Coleman furnace system that was continuously humming despite the thermostat being in the off position. Upon arrival, performed a comprehensive system inspection of the vertically-stacked HVAC installation housed in an interior closet space. Visual inspection revealed extensive deterioration throughout the system. The evaporator coil exhibited severe rust and corrosion across the copper tubing and fin surfaces, indicating significant age-related degradation and possible refrigerant leakage. The coil assembly showed heavy brown oxidation that compromised its structural integrity and heat transfer efficiency. Examined the air handler unit and identified the source of the continuous humming as a control board or blower motor malfunction preventing proper system shutdown. Traced electrical connections throughout the system, noting aged wiring and multiple connection points showing s
