Gladstone, MO HVAC & Plumbing Services

Arrived for furnace maintenance today. Checked static pressure which passed. Checked furnace filter and it’s still good. Ran combustion analysis to make sure fuel is burning properly. Carbon monoxide test was 0 ppm. Heat exchanger has no rust or cracks. Blower wheel is clean. All electrical components are running properly at this time. The flue had rusted through in a couple spots. With approval I replaced the pieces. The parts have a two year warranty on them.

Airflow decline

Went for a maintenance call today. When going furnace tested for static pressure. Static pressure was passing for system. Did a co test for furnace. No co was detected when testing. Inspected heat exchanger no wears tear. All electrical components are passing for manufacture specifications. Temp split was passing for system. Did notice the blower wheel has a lot of dust. Did inspect the duct work. There is a lot of up dust in the return. Will recommend a duct cleaning, and UV light for customer. Cleaned out drain line, flame sensor, and pressure switch hose. System is up and running before leaving. Thank you for choosing LBA services-Johann.

Upon arrival I began the furnace tune up. I started with a static pressure test. This system is rated for a maximum of .5 and the system is testing at .7 in 2nd stage. Customer is aware of this and Nick is talking with her about that and possibly having the ducts cleaned. I continued with my tune up. I checked the running amps in the inducer and blower motor and both tested within the manufacturer specifications. I replaced the filter today. Cleaned the flame sensor. I did a CO test to make sure the furnace is safe and it is safe at Zero PPM(parts per million). There are no leaks in your system at this time. The control board looks good, the blower wheel looks pretty clean still. The temperature rise was at 62 degrees which is within specs at well. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to call us. Your LBA Technician, Tyler Rickard P.S. No payment was due for todays visit, it was covered with your membership today. Have a great weekend!

Upon arrival we were shown to the kitchen sink that is draining slowly and when speaking to the customer she mention she’d just gotten a new garbage disposal. The rubber insert so things don’t fall through the garbage disposal is so new it is not allowing all the water to flow through and creating a seal and causing it to drain slow. I mentioned to the customer that the seal will wear down over time and use and allow the water to flow through better.

No charge

Arrived for ac not blowing cold air. Upon inspection I found the capacitor on the condensing unit outside was bad and the compressor was not running. With approval I replaced the capacitor. I then checked the refrigerant on the system and it was good. There is also an 18 degree temperature split inside, which is good. System is running upon departure. Thanks for choosing LBA.

Performed annual cooling maintenance. Found that the system had extremely high static pressure and customer didn’t wanna do anything about it at this time. Recommended leaving dampers all open and he said he will not be doing that cause he wants to get more air upstairs. Recommended zoning to the system, but he wasn’t interested in hearing about it

Came out to unclog drain line from a kink we had left on the line unit is now flowing properly

Upon arrival I began the AC tune up. I started down in the basement at the furnace. I checked the running amps on the blower motor and it was within manufacturer specifications. The blower wheel itself looked pretty clean to me today. I also did a static pressure test on 5r system. The system is rated for a max of .5 and my test showed it to be at .7 which is significantly better than where it was before the airflow improvements. I checked the temperature split between the return air temp and the supply air temp and I had a nice 17 degree split. I cleaned the outdoor unit off with water before taking any readings. The running amps on the compressor and fan motor are both within specifications. The refrigerant charge looks good. Subcooling target was spot on for your system. Your system is cooling your home properly at this time. If you have any questions or concerns please contact us! Have a nice week!

On this job, I was showing up due to some water pooling up around the furnace. After checking the system, it was clear that water was backing up into the drain pan and down the sides of the furnace as well as the inside of the furnace. I installed a new drain line And sealed some of the cracks in the furnace box. Everything is running good at this time. At some point a UV light might be utilized to clean out the bacteria in the furnace.

Customer complaint

Upon arrival I began the AC tune up. First, I did a static pressure test on the system. The manufacturer has it rated for a maximum of .9 and your system is testing well below the max at .5 which is great! Next, I checked the running amps on the blower motor and it was within specifications. The blower wheel itself looked pretty clean to me today. I then went to the outdoor unit and cleaned the cottonwood off the AC. I checked the running amps on the compressor and fan motor and both were reading within specs. The dual run capacitor on the unit was within specs on both sides. Lastly, I checked the refrigerant charge and it was spot on with a subcooling target of 11 degree and it’s right at 11 degrees subcool which is perfect for your system. The temperature split in the home is at a nice 20 degree split. Your system is cooling your home properly at this time! If you have any questions or concerns please contact us! Have a great week!
