St. Joseph, IL

Completed quality check on new heating and cooling service install. Verified furnace gas pressure (3.48 inWC) and 3-ton AC refrigerant charge (13° subcooling/8° superheat) to ensure proper airflow (1190 CFM) and optimal system operation.

Completed a plumbing repair on a dripping outdoor spigot by installing a wall hydrant repair kit, stopping the leak and restoring proper function.

Resolved AC not cooling issue on mini-split. Reclaimed existing refrigerant, found the charge significantly low, and recharged system with 4 lbs of refrigerant. Verified proper operation with indoor unit outputting 46°F supply air.

Inspected the Liberty sump pump and alarm system. Diagnosed worn rubber gaskets on the check valve causing the pump to cycle. Replaced the check valve to ensure proper water flow and a reliable sump pump repair.

Cleaned heat pump coils, took static pressure, and tested refrigerant. Detected basement sink pipe leak and corroded washing machine valves. Provided plumbing repair quotes and proposed an 80-gallon electric water heater replacement.

Completed a sump pump repair to resolve crawlspace flooding. Replaced the failed pump (disconnected float) with a new Liberty 457 sump pump and a new check valve. Tested the system to ensure reliable drainage and proper operation.

Inspected storm drains (MH 1-5) with a crawler camera to investigate flooding. Confirmed campus lines have no clogs or defects. Identified a city sewer backup at MH 1. Suggested a discharge pump at MH 4 if storm drainage issues persist.

Resolved an AC not cooling issue by replacing a failed capacitor. Also diagnosed a faulty high-pressure switch; temporarily bypassed it to restore immediate cooling and provided a quote for a permanent thread-in switch replacement.

Resolved no hot water issue after basement flooding extinguished the pilot. Relit the water heater, dried and vacuumed the wet air filter, and advised keeping a fan on the unit to clear remaining moisture.

Cleared a main sewer backup via drain cleaning, rodding 60ft upstream and 100ft downstream to remove roots. Camera inspection confirmed line is clear upstream; notified city public works of a backed-up downstream manhole.

Replaced drained thermostat batteries and tested system operations to resolve the cooling issue. The AC is now responding properly to all thermostat commands.

Performed sump pump repair by removing an obstructing bait trap that stuck the float switch. Confirmed main and backup pumps operate correctly, but advised monitoring the main pump closely due to signs of overheating.

Investigated locker room water intrusion. Televised 124 ft through a 4-inch cleanout to a storm catch basin; line is in good condition. Recommended drain cleaning and a crawler camera inspection of all catch basins to locate the blockage.

Replaced 20x25x5 filter, treated condensate line, and cleaned condenser coils for HVAC maintenance. Tested sump and ejector pumps, dye-tested toilets, and flushed the tankless water heater to ensure residential plumbing efficiency.

Performed seasonal HVAC maintenance. Replaced the furnace filter, checked static pressures, and inspected wiring. Tested the AC capacitor, measured compressor amp draw, and cleaned the condenser coils to optimize cooling efficiency.

Performed HVAC maintenance: replaced filter, cleared condensate line, and verified refrigerant levels. Inspected plumbing drains, toilets, water pressure, and sump pump. Bypassed flushing the aged water heater to avoid damage.

Performed HVAC maintenance: cleaned condenser coils, treated condensate line, and checked airflow. Inspected plumbing: tested sump pumps, drained water heater, and identified a leaking backyard spigot needing replacement.

Cut into 1.5" PVC sump discharge line for camera inspection, locating rocks blocking the pipe 10' out. Completed sump pump repair to clear blockage and installed a new cleanout access for easier future maintenance.

Evaluated crawlspace ductwork condensation. Explained that cold air in uninsulated ducts meeting humid, unconditioned air causes normal sweating. Offered insulation but determined it was unnecessary, successfully resolving the concern.

Completed plumbing repair by replacing a worn cartridge to resolve a water leak. Tested the system under pressure to ensure leak-free, proper operation.

Cleared kitchen sink clog using drain cleaning rodding equipment, running a 5/16" cable 50ft to remove waste buildup. Inspected crawlspace plumbing and recommended weekly warm water flushes to prevent backups due to a flat pipe pitch.

Performed HVAC maintenance: replaced filter, cleaned evaporator coil, and treated condensate line. Resolved pilot issue with water heater repair by flushing unit and cleaning burner assembly. Checked shutoffs and dye-tested toilets.

Replaced the 16x20x4 filter, treated the condensate line, and cleaned condenser coils. Flushed the water heater, cleaned burners, and tested the sump pump and toilets to ensure optimal home plumbing and HVAC system performance.

Replaced a leaking 25-year-old model with a new Toto Drake Comfort Height toilet. Installed a stainless steel repair flange to fix a cracked toilet flange, ensuring a secure, leak-free plumbing repair.

Conducted follow-up HVAC inspection on a newly installed 80k furnace and 3-ton AC. Checked gas pressures, static pressure, and refrigerant charge (16° SH / 11° SC). Confirmed heating and cooling performance meet factory specifications.
