Customer searching for Air conditioning repair due to water leaking from the unit. Upon arrival the technician found a large area in a storage closet was wet where the flooring was soaked all the way through. It is difficult to determine at this time, whether the condensation line is leaking or the evaporator coil drain pan is cracked. Recommended replacing the first section of drain line through the floor and inspecting evap coil. Checked system pressure to see if EVAP coil was freezing and thawing out causing the large amount of water, system may be low on R-22. Also recommend a full system tune up to determine this. Will need another tech to come out with me to make repair. Will call to schedule.

Customer is searching for a Drain professional due to a backed-up sewer line. The technician arrived to investigate backed up sewer on new home. Used sewer camera to investigate problem because line was not currently backed up. Found the line to have a blue conduit through it and the sewer line broken. Located and traced the sewer line. Line is marked with pink paint and pink flags. This was a very difficult locate and took extra time due to heavy interference from a large power line underground. It was necessary to use two different locating devices to verify the location of the damage. After the line increases in diameter near the power box the sewer is under water, further complicating the locate process. It is possible that this sewer is angled down but I can’t be sure.
