Heating and Cooling Shelby Township

Provided comprehensive estimate for complete HVAC system replacement in basement location. Evaluated existing Bryant gas furnace and non-operational air conditioning system, both with unknown age but last serviced in 2008-2009. Assessed current equipment condition, ductwork configuration, venting system, and utility connections. Documented existing installation with detailed photographs showing furnace cabinet, exhaust venting, and horizontal duct distribution system. Reviewed customer requirements for new natural gas furnace and air conditioning replacement to restore full heating and cooling capabilities to the residence.

Installed customer-supplied chrome pull-out kitchen faucet with matching soap dispenser on double-basin undermount sink with granite countertop. Verified all supply line connections, tested faucet operation and spray function, confirmed proper drainage, and ensured no leaks at mounting points or under-cabinet connections.

Responded to warranty concern regarding previous kitchen sink valve repair. Upon inspection, determined the active leak was not related to the prior valve replacement work. Investigation revealed severe mineral buildup and corrosion within existing PVC drain piping beneath the kitchen sink, which was the actual source of the water leak. The deteriorated pipe sections showed significant scale accumulation and rust-colored deposits that had substantially reduced the interior diameter and compromised the integrity of the drain system. Disassembled affected PVC drainage components including straight sections, elbow joints, and T-connectors to assess extent of damage. Documented the corroded pipe condition showing heavy mineral deposits on interior walls. Explained findings to customer that the leak originated from the deteriorated drain piping system rather than the previously completed valve repair work, confirming the prior repair remained intact and functional.

Completed installation of 5-ton air conditioning system with matching evaporator coil in left-side configuration. Installed new outdoor condensing unit on concrete pad with proper refrigerant line routing and electrical disconnect, and indoor coil assembly with containment system for debris control during installation. Obtained mechanical and electrical permits, reconnected all electrical components per code requirements, and performed final system measurements to verify proper operation and refrigerant charge.

Responded to callback for condenser unit short cycling after previous service visit. Upon arrival, found 10-year-old AC system failing to maintain setpoint with indoor temperature at 76°F versus thermostat setting of 73°F. Condenser unit exhibited abnormal operation pattern—running briefly, stopping with audible noise, then restarting in repetitive cycle. Performed diagnostic inspection of outdoor unit. Identified failed dual-run capacitor as root cause of compressor short cycling and unusual operational sounds. Capacitor showed signs of deterioration and was unable to provide proper starting and running voltage to compressor and condenser fan motor. This component failure likely occurred due to stress from refrigerant adjustment performed during previous service appointment. Removed defective capacitor and installed new dual-run capacitor with proper microfarad rating for unit specifications. Verified all electrical connections at terminal block were secure and properly torqued. Rec

Responded to no cooling complaint on 2016 central air conditioning system. Upon arrival, confirmed unit was blowing warm air with inadequate temperature differential. Performed diagnostic temperature measurements at supply ductwork, recording wet bulb and dry bulb readings to assess system performance. Supply air temperature measured at 60.52°F WB and 50.5°F, indicating insufficient cooling capacity. Inspected outdoor condensing unit and refrigerant lines. Observed significant dust accumulation on ductwork and system components. Diagnostic testing completed to identify root cause of cooling failure.

Performed comprehensive evaluation of residential Lennox air conditioning system experiencing refrigerant leak in evaporator coil. Conducted thorough leak search diagnostics and documented existing outdoor condensing unit condition. Provided estimate for complete system replacement due to leaking coil requiring repair beyond economical service threshold.

Completed comprehensive Gold AC Inspection on 11-year-old basement-located air conditioning system. Performed full system evaluation including visual inspection of all accessible components, verified proper operation of equipment, and documented condition of HVAC infrastructure including humidifier control settings and associated ductwork. System found to be operational with homeowner present during inspection, weather conditions suitable for accurate assessment and testing.

Completed full residential generator installation including electrical hookup, gas piping with pressure testing, and automatic transfer switch integration. Installed and wired transfer switch panel with dual disconnect breakers, contactors, and multi-circuit wiring distribution for seamless power transfer between utility and generator sources. Ran and connected natural gas supply line with appropriate shutoff valves and fittings to fuel the generator unit. Performed pressure testing on all gas piping to verify system integrity and code compliance. All electrical connections terminated per manufacturer specifications with proper wire sizing and color coding for phase identification. Transfer switch mounted in weatherproof enclosure on exterior wall with complete integration to existing electrical service panel. System tested and verified operational for automatic startup and power transfer functionality.

Responded to gas leak call affecting both furnace and water heater in basement mechanical room. Performed comprehensive leak detection inspection on 4-year-old furnace and 10+ year-old water heater, checking all gas supply lines, connections, and fittings using electronic leak detector and soap solution. Identified leak source, tightened gas line connections, and verified proper sealing at all joints. Conducted combustion analysis on both units to ensure safe operation, confirmed proper venting, and tested all safety controls. Re-pressurized gas lines and performed final leak check to verify complete resolution. All equipment returned to safe operating condition with no detectable leaks present upon completion.

Completed comprehensive estimate for full HVAC system replacement in manufactured home. Assessed existing aging furnace and air conditioning equipment, both showing significant wear and requiring extensive repairs that make replacement more cost-effective. Documented current indoor wall-mounted HVAC cabinet unit and outdoor cylindrical condensing unit, noting advanced age and deterioration of components. Provided detailed replacement options and financing information for complete heating and cooling system upgrade.

Completed warranty inspection on Bradford White residential water heater installation. Identified code violation where PEX piping was improperly used for temperature and pressure relief valve discharge line, which requires metallic piping per plumbing standards. Documented incomplete installation requiring necessary corrections including proper T&P relief valve piping, water heater platform or stand installation per code requirements, and wall access closure. Unable to perform complete inspection due to ongoing construction conditions with exposed wall framing and unfinished surfaces around installation area. Provided callback instructions for final inspection upon completion of required repairs and proper access restoration.

Responded to mechanical code violation requiring B-vent tee installation per MRC 2428.3.9.1. Installed compliant B-vent tee assembly on Bradford White water heater venting system in basement utility area. Reconfigured metallic vent piping with proper elbow joints and metal clamps to meet code requirements, ensuring proper draft and safe exhaust ventilation. Verified all connections secure and system operating within manufacturer specifications and local mechanical code standards.

Technicians returned to the property to replace the evaporator coil as previously scheduled. The new evaporator coil (Part #29A30) was successfully installed and system diagnostics were performed using digital testing equipment to verify proper operation and refrigerant levels.
