Desert Hot Springs, CA

Upon arrival client stated system hasn’t been working for the last few months. Found packaged unit didn’t have power due to a blown high voltage fuse. Replaced fuses and cycled system. Checked all high voltage connections. Recommend surge protection.

Performed annual cooling maintenance on a 2021 Ruud 4 ton split system. Upflow fau is located in garage, cleared condensation line and tested water safety switch. Replaced 16x25 filter located in filter rack. Followed sequence of operations and checked voltage, amperage, capacitor, temperature split, Freon levels, and rinsed condenser coils. Found compressor LRA over amping reading 122 out of 105 max LRA. Informed and recommended to client adding a compressor saver (hard start kit) to lower starting amps and prevent any potential issues. Client to advise. Sent quote via email. Thermostat checked out operational. System is working properly in cooling at this time of service.

Performed annual cooling maintenance on a 2025 American Standard Gold 4 ton heat pump. Upflow fau is located in hallway closet. Replaced 20x25 filter located in filter rack and tested condensate pump for proper operation. Followed sequence of operations and checked voltage, amperage, capacitor, temperature split, Freon levels, and rinsed condenser coils. Everything checked out in range. Honeywell S200 thermostat checked out okay. System is working properly in cooling at this time of service.

Performed annual heating maintenance on 2022 heat pump spit system. Client already changed out filter. Followed sequence of operations checked blower motor speeds, electrical components, and temperature rise. 1050 is operating properly no alerts found on system. Cleared out condensation line to drain properly. System is operating properly at this time of service.

Performed a heating maintenance on a Intertherm Down flow , Filters located on in unit, unit located in laundry room , changed filter, on unit checked for amperage and voltage, checked for blower motor, check for capacitor, check for any loose connections, check for temperature rise, everything within range also cleared dust accumulated inside electrical component. System is working within specification in heating at the time of maintenance

Today’s annual heating maintenance consisted of one upflow package unit. I first began with replacing both of the filters on the system to ensure proper airflow is able to circulate back to the system at minimum resistance. I then make sure that the nest thermostat is properly calling for heat and turning the unit on the blower motor is checking out in the correct amperage range verifying that there’s a controlled voltage being used throughout the system efficiently and safely. There’s a controlled flame, ensuring that the gas pressure is at the right setting. The temperature supply check is checking out in the correct range, ensuring that the home is being warm to the desired temperature. I also made sure that the T stat wiring connected to the compressor outdoors is not eroding or any signs of rodents destroying the insulation around the suction line and liquid line. Overall, this system is operating to the manufacturer specs at this time of preventative heating maintenance.

Arrived at customer’s home to diagnose outlets and lights non op throughout home. Found that two arc fault breakers feeding bedrooms were tripped, but not in a fully tripped position. Turned breaker completely off and on a couple of times and breaker reset to restore power to affected areas. Also checked customer’s car charger to ensure proper voltage/amperage. Found that cord for charger was only rated for 32 amps and informed customer to contact dealer for a bigger cord for charger. Upon departure, customer mentioned using WD40 on breaker in future. I informed customer that this should NEVER be done as WD40 is flammable and will ruin breakers.
