I was called out to a home where a new room addition had no air conditioning, making it the hottest room in the house on this hot July day. The problem was a lack of ductwork to the new space. I solved this by tapping into the existing supply trunk line in the attic, running a new insulated flex duct to the addition, and installing a new supply vent in the ceiling. I then balanced the dampers to ensure the new room gets great airflow without taking too much from other areas of the home.
I was at a home where the owner was struggling to keep their upstairs cool, even with the AC running nonstop. I identified a major source of the problem: their attic pull-down stairs were allowing a huge amount of heat to transfer from the attic into the hallway. I solved this efficiency issue by installing a specialized, insulated attic tent. This device creates an airtight seal over the attic opening, effectively stopping the heat gain and making it much easier for their AC to keep the home comfortable.
A customer's outdoor AC unit was running, but they weren't getting any air at all from their vents. I inspected the indoor air handler and found the problem was a completely failed blower motor; it had seized up and wouldn't spin. I solved the issue by replacing the entire blower motor assembly. Once installed, powerful airflow was restored throughout the home, and the system was able to properly circulate the cold air again.
I visited a home where the customer had a strange issue for July: their AC wasn't working, but the indoor furnace fan wouldn't shut off. I traced the problem to the furnace's control board, which had failed and was no longer correctly communicating with the thermostat or the outdoor unit. I solved the problem by replacing the faulty control board with a new one. This immediately restored normal function, allowing the air conditioner to run properly just in time for the weekend.
I was at a local business today to perform preventative maintenance on their commercial rooftop HVAC units. The manager was concerned about avoiding a system failure during the summer heat, which could disrupt their operations. I solved this potential problem by completing a full service on each unit, which included cleaning the condenser coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting belts for wear, and replacing all the air filters. The systems are now running at peak efficiency, giving the business peace of mind.
A client wanted to proactively prevent a potential mid-summer AC breakdown and address the loss of efficiency that leads to higher utility bills. I solved this by performing a comprehensive maintenance tune-up. My work included a thorough cleaning of the indoor and outdoor coils, flushing the condensate drain line, and verifying all electrical and refrigerant parameters. This tune-up restored the unit to peak operating efficiency, ensuring the homeowner has reliable cooling for the season.
Inspected a non-cooling AC system. Diagnosed failed compressor capacitor, which caused the system to hum but not start. Replaced the capacitor with a manufacturer-approved part, verified amperage draw, and confirmed full system operation after startup. Advised homeowner on signs of capacitor failure for future awareness.
Customer experiencing excessive indoor humidity. Evaluated AC system and confirmed short cycling due to incorrect thermostat settings. Adjusted settings, reprogrammed cycle delays, and educated the customer on proper dehumidification. Also verified condensate pump operation. Conditions improved significantly by end of visit.
Replaced a faulty blower motor capacitor after homeowner noticed reduced airflow. Verified resistance values and capacitor specs before installing a new part. Post-installation testing showed correct RPM and airflow output. Unit back to proper function with quieter operation as well.
Routine check revealed signs of microbial growth in the drain pan. Cleaned with coil-safe disinfectant and installed pan Pure AirX treatment to prevent recurrence. Recommended ongoing IAQ upgrades, including UV light installation and high-efficiency filter system.
Cleaned moldy mini split air handler for garage gym. Removed biological buildup from the blower wheel and coil fins using HVAC-safe cleaner. Advised client to maintain regular cleanings and consider installing a UV air purifier to prevent future issues.
Evaluated a 10-year-old system with a failed condenser fan motor. Quoted for motor replacement, capacitor, and labor. Also noted UV damage on the insulation wrap and recommended replacement for efficiency. Provided pricing and repair timeline so the homeowner could make an informed decision.
Customer had complaints of persistent indoor odors and sinus irritation. I conducted an IAQ inspection and installed a Pure AirX UV light in the air handler to target microbial buildup. Additionally, I treated the drain pan with Pure AirX tablets to prevent bacterial slime and blockages. I also inspected the return plenum for leaks and sealed minor gaps to prevent unfiltered air infiltration. IAQ levels should now improve steadily with active UV sanitation.
Repaired a leaking duct plenum with several gaps around collar connections. Used mastic and mesh tape to seal joints and reinsulated the outer surface. Verified airflow improvements at two supply vents using an anemometer. Reduced conditioned air loss significantly in this zone.
Replaced several sections of deteriorated flex duct in a 20-year-old system. The inner liner had collapsed in two branches, causing airflow restriction. Measured and cut new R-8 insulated duct, sealed all connections with UL-181 mastic tape, and strapped them with reinforced supports. Balanced airflow at the supply registers afterward. Duct system is now fully functional, and static pressure readings confirmed improved efficiency and comfort in all zones.
Repaired a short cycling issue caused by a failed contactor with pitted terminals. Replaced the part, then tested voltage at the control board and capacitor. System now cycles properly with accurate thermostat communication and no voltage drop under load.
While performing routine spring maintenance, I found the condenser fan motor pulling high amps and running hot. Bearings were seizing. Recommended immediate replacement to prevent total system failure. Completed full tune-up including coil cleaning, refrigerant check, and tightening of electrical connections.
Performed a spring AC tune-up. I cleaned the condenser coil, checked refrigerant levels, inspected electrical components, and flushed the condensate drain line. Found slightly low R-410A, so I added 4 oz to bring subcooling into spec. System is now running efficiently.
