Homer, IL

Completed troubleshooting for a propane water heater repair. Replaced the thermal cutoff, pressure switch, gas valve, and burner. Determined the issue is likely a propane supply shortfall, as the home furnace also failed to ignite.

Verified system voltage, tested static pressure, and replaced a broken electrical disconnect on the basement outdoor unit. Measured supply and return temperatures to ensure balanced airflow and proper HVAC system performance.

Replaced 16x20x1 air filter and checked system pressures during HVAC maintenance. For plumbing, adjusted water heater temperature down from 139°F for safety, verified sump pump operation, and dye-tested toilets for leaks.

Resolved error code 3 on State power vent water heater. Confirmed no vent blockages, disconnected pressure switch tube, and cleared debris from ports. Reassembled and tested to restore proper hot water operation.

Replaced a section of kitchen cast iron drain pipe in the crawlspace with 1.5” PVC. Cleared downstream blockages using a drain cleaning rod to resolve the clog, tracing the line to an old grease trap to ensure proper sink drainage.

Inspected 6” clay basement drain with a camera, finding no structural issues. Investigated water intrusion in the northeast corner; identified potential footing tile damage and sinking dirt outside caused by a past water line installation.

Cleaned outdoor AC unit, verified refrigerant levels, and checked system airflow for HVAC maintenance. Inspected plumbing shut-off valves, checked water pressure, and conducted a toilet dye test to ensure system efficiency.

Conducted post-installation HVAC inspection on new 3-ton AC and 80k S9X2 furnace. Verified gas pressures, static pressure, and refrigerant charge (15° superheat/8° subcooling) to ensure efficient heating and cooling service.

Replaced 20x25x5 filter, treated condensate line, and cleaned condenser coils. Diagnosed a faulty UV bulb in the air scrubber. Verified static pressures, refrigerant levels, and a 23°F temperature split to ensure efficient cooling.

Cleaned mini-split filters and treated condensate lines during HVAC maintenance. Inspected residential plumbing fixtures; advised water heater replacement or gas valve repair due to corrosion and overheating issues.

Diagnosed AC blowing warm air and found the system completely out of refrigerant. Provided a detailed quote for a new air conditioning installation to upgrade the home's cooling system.

Resolved AC not cooling by evacuating and recharging R-410A to factory specs. Increased indoor fan speed to correct a poor airflow issue causing the system to short-cycle. Restored proper suction pressure and cooling performance.

Cleared a clogged kitchen sink using professional drain cleaning. Rodded 40 feet into the plumbing line, removing root intrusion that caused the blockage. Reassembled the pipes, tested for leaks, and verified restored drainage.

Flushed the water heater, adjusted temperature down from 140°, and checked pressure (100 psi). Inspected toilet and sink stops, and completed a toilet dye test. HVAC maintenance was deferred due to the recently installed new system.

Diagnosed combi-boiler lockout causing no hot water. Found the pump failing to engage despite correct voltage. Temporarily restored pump function, but recommended immediate descaling maintenance and potential pump replacement.

Finished installing the water heater venting system and flue pipe to resolve draft issues, ensuring safe and proper exhaust ventilation.

Replaced a malfunctioning propane unit under warranty for a complete water heater repair. Installed the new water heater with a full port drain valve, tested for leaks, and cycled the thermostat to ensure reliable heating.

Completed precision HVAC maintenance. Replaced air filter, verified electrical voltage and amperage, measured return/supply temperatures, and checked static and refrigerant pressures. All system readings are normal and operating efficiently.

A/C not cooling due to refrigerant loss. Quote provided for unit upgrade.

Inspected toilet, found leak from tank-to-bowl bolts & gaskets. Provided quote for toilet repair.

Performed drain cleaning for a backed-up kitchen sink, resolving foul-smelling water backup into the dishwasher and restoring proper drainage.

Boiler maintenance performed. Resolved hot returns by pulling & cleaning burners and cleaning boiler environment for improved heating efficiency.

Replaced leaking urinal gasket to resolve active plumbing leaks.

New water heater installed, ensuring reliable hot water supply.
