Elgin, TX

Heat Pump Installation in Elgin, TX I completed a precision heat pump installation featuring variable-speed compressor technology. I performed a detailed heat load calculation using Manual J methodology, custom-sized a 3-ton system for optimal residential cooling and heating efficiency, and completed comprehensive refrigerant line set brazing and insulation.

Today I arrived in Elgin and met with the homeowners. I completed the fall evaluation for both hvac systems today in the primary home. I labeled the units today ‘Master Side’ and ‘Guest Side’. Customers concerns of master side unit sounding louder than guest and the smell coming from the indoor unit. I investigated these concerns and found the indoor unit had bacteria present within the indoor unit causing the smell, I noticed the outdoor unit had the wrong size copper piping which is associated with the sound concern but not entirely. A portion of the sound described is due to the decibel rating of the unit and location as it’s able to resonate the mechanical operations are also louder as the unit isn’t running as designed it’s slightly elevated. During evaluation of both units, I added unions to the water removal systems and I flushed and treated them today. I also washed both outdoor units using water and treated them with electrical insecticide.

Today I arrived and met with Mrs Laura. I completed the fall evaluation today. I verified system performance and the safety system inside gas furnace. I cleaned off the flame safety system, during performance test I scanned home for c.o and found zero. System is operating very well and at this time I recommended installing surge, we also talked about installing Reme Halo LED. Upon departure left both upstairs and downstairs in auto mode set for 68 heating, currently both zones are reading 70.

Today I arrived and met with Mrs farmer. I completed the evaluation today of customers hvac system, I began by verifying the system is performing well and that the auxiliary heating system is safely operating. While testing the auxiliary heating system I noticed 1/2 of the heater is inoperable. I recommended replacement of the auxiliary heating system but I also recommended waiting to see how it would perform when it gets cold and stays cold consistently. I also stressed the fact the unit is 14 years of age and to consider an upgrade prior to approving repair. Going outside I washed the system using water, I was sure to wrap the exterior hose bib with the customers insulation the way I found it. Upon departure I left system operating in heating mode set for 74 currently reading 76 inside.

Today I arrived and Mr Buchanan had stated the heating wasn’t working. I noticed the remote was set to cooling (snowflake icon) I then placed to heating (sun icon) and unit heats beautifully.

Today I arrived and met both customers. I evaluated customers concern of burnt rubber smell. I removed air movement system and inspected motor, I also inspected the auxiliary heating system. I found the auxiliary heating system to be operating too hot, causing the temperature safety switch to engage, while this is happening it’s producing a foul odor. I went over pricing with customer of replacing the auxiliary heating system and cleaning the indoor unit. Customer would like the estimates emailed to them and they will make a decision this evening. Upon departure left system in off mode.

Upon my arrival I performed the heating evaluation on the furnace system. During the evaluation I found that the flame ignition system is dirty and needs to be cleaned. I spoke with the customer about the different options for repair and he would like them emailed over to view. He wants to think on it since the system is getting aged and thinks it maybe time to upgrade his equipment. He doesn’t want to consult set up just yet but I did give him a ball park to think about on newer equipment. He plans to take this all into consideration and get back to us.

Upon my arrival the customer had concerns that the system on the smaller home was not dehumidifying. I looked into their concerns before performing the heat evaluation. I found that the system is dehumidifying properly and that areas of concern with the white substance building up are in the vaulted ceilings. With the air flow coming from the wall there is stagnant heat staying at the top of the ceiling. I made some adjustments to the vents pointing them up towards the ceiling to see if that helps the customer with their concerns. I then performed the heating evaluation on both heat pump systems and found that the indoor air movement systems are dirty. Customer would like the options emailed over to view and I will follow up after the holidays. Both system were performing properly in heating. I did and update on the main home outdoor condense while on site.

Upon my arrival I performed the heating evaluation on the heat pump system. I found everything operating properly at this time but the system is starting to age. I spoke with the customer to see if they have given any thought to upgrading their equipment. They have been giving some thought towards it but do not wish to move forward at this time due to other unexpected events they had come up. They would like us to reach out in march to see if they want to move forward with having a consult set up. Renewed maintenance contact while on site.

Upon my arrival I updated the comfort control system for the master bedroom. After the update I tested the system in low & high heat on the furnace then tested the system in cooling. Found that everything was coming in and operating as it should. I then replaced the filter on the main system. Left both systems operating in auto mode.

Upon my arrival i spoke with the customer about their concerns on the comfort control system. I found that the control was operating properly just that the customer was not making a good contact with her finger to the touch screen control. I then went over how to operate the control in auto mode so she doesn’t have to worry about switching it back and forth from heat to cool. After helping the customer understand her control I then performed the heating evaluation on the heat pump system. Found that everything is operating without manufacture specifications at this time. Once the evaluation was complete I spoke with the customer about Reme halo. This is something she is interested but with the holidays coming out she doesn’t want to have to spend that much right now. I told her we can go over everything again at the spring evaluation when the holidays have passed. She was happy with that and will re-evaluate at the spring eval on installing Reme halo. Left the system in auto mode betwe

This morning's maintenance on a Carrier 25HCB6 heat pump included cleaning the outdoor coil with Nu-Calgon evaporator cleaner, checking refrigerant pressures, and testing capacitor function. I also replaced the worn contractor and calibrated the thermostat.

I serviced a failing Goodman GMEC96 furnace this afternoon. The pressure switch showed 0.5 inches water column, indicating restricted airflow. After cleaning the condensate drain line and replacing the clogged air filter, proper operation was restored.

Today I arrived and met with the homeowners. Concern of thermostat stating high humidity alarms. I checked and found it to be off by 4%rh I made the adjustments needed. I completed the fall evaluation today, I verified system performance and verified it’s safe. I flushed and treated water removal system today, I also washed outdoor unit with water and treated the electrical panel with electrical insecticide. Moving forward I asked the customer watch the humidity periodically as it shouldn’t be an issue again. Upon departure left system operating in cooling mode set to 78 currently 75 inside.

Today I arrived and met with Mrs Marla. I completed the fall evaluation today. I evaluated unit safety and performance. System performs well and is safe, home has 0 c.o detected while in operation. I mentioned that there is slight rust signs within burner cabinet and this is something to keep an eye on. I noticed the emergency pan underneath the evaporator coil was rusted. I mentioned that the cause of this is most likely due to the furnace condensation hose back feeding into pan. With these things mentioned customer is going to leave system be until it’s time to replace. Customer also has no fresh air system for the hvac system. Upon departure left system operating in cooling mode set to 79 currently 77 inside.

Upon my arrival I looked at the Reme halo that was coming down and found that it was not operating properly. I verified proper voltage coming to the system and found that the Reme halo itself was faulted. I installed a new one under warranty then sealed the system back and attached the Reme halo to the duct board with screws to help with stability. I then proceeded to perform the heating evaluation and found everything operating properly at this time.

Performed the heating evaluation on the furnace system and found that the air circulation system is dirty. All other operations of the system were operating properly at this time. Spoke with the customer about having the air movement system pulled and cleaned and went over his different options for repair. He would like them emailed over so he can look them over further but is still on the fence about upgrading his equipment.

Upon my arrival I performed the heating evaluation on the heat pump system. I found that everything is operating within manufacture specifications at this time. Customer mentioned they did not like the thermostat because it always goes below the temperature they set it to in cooling. I went over what their dehumidifying system does with cooling the home below the set point to pull the humidity out for better comfort within the home. They plan to adjust the thermostat up some moving forward to get the temperature they would like it to feel within the home.

Upon my arrival I spoke to the customer about their concerns on the HVAC system. I then performed and diagnostics and found that the main control board on the outdoor unit is faulted. This is something that should have been replaced when we performed the repair back in July. I informed the customers that we will do our best to return asap to get them back cooling. Currently the customer with not have air conditioning until the repair is performed but they will have heating if the temperature drops since it is a furnace. Spoke to the customer about maintenance and they did not elect to go with it at this time.

Upon my arrival I spoke with the customer about the update on her thermostat. She doesn’t want to update it because she does not want to run into the issues that the last one had. I dismissed the update on the screen today. I performed the heating evaluation on the 2 furnace systems and the mini split. Found that everything is operating within manufacture specifications at this time. Customer wanted me to replaced the electronic filter on the main system but the filters the last technician helped her order were the wrong ones. I helped her find the correct filters to order. When she receives the filters she is going to call the office to schedule a time for someone to come out and replace it for her. She understands there will be a service charge for us returning to replace the filter. Left the furnace systems operating in auto and the mini split set to 68° heat upon customers request.

Upon my arrival in Elgin I spoke to the customer about any concerns they may have and they did not have any at this time. I performed the heating evaluation on the heat pump system and found everything operating properly at this time.

In Elgin, I performed the heating evaluation on both furnace systems. Found that both systems combustion exhaust systems are over-amping, the pressure switch on system #2 is not operating properly, the air movement system is dirty and both systems are not completely converted from natural gas to propane. I spoke with the customer about their different options for repair and they chose to go with HM8E on both systems. I will be getting parts ordered and collecting 10% down on both repairs. The customer wants the repair to be scheduled further into December. This repair will take 2 technicians 2.5-3 hours to complete.

Working for a great client in Elgin today; I spoke with the customer about what I would be evaluating today. I evaluated the furnace system and found that it was never fully converted from natural gas to propane. I found that the kit was still in the attic and since we did the install I properly set the system up for the propane conversion today. I then proceeded to test the system and found that everything is operating properly at this time.
