The gas company was out on-site previously and turned off the gas to the office suite due to not being able to turn a gas shut -off that serves a furnace. The gas shut off was replaced and left in the off position. Blake has called the gas company and they will be returning this afternoon. Blake will contact me when they are en route. Thank you, Jon Tech notes: a p.o. was used to obtain a new gas shut off valve.

After some extensive searching, the initial cartridges I had planned to pick up were actually for local pickup in Tulsa, for whatever reason my tablet sometimes thinks I’m there, but I was thankfully able to find and get a full rebuild kit ordered for this valve from neenan coordinating with Tom, they said it’ll most likely be here Monday and that they’ll call me when it’s here to pick it up, after looking there wasn’t a single place locally that we could have sourced this kit from so I’m really glad we found one, even if we’ve got to wait

Plumbing Installation: A client requested a bathroom upgrade with dual vanities. I rerouted the plumbing to accommodate two sinks, installed high-end faucets, and connected everything to the home’s water supply and drainage systems. The sleek, functional upgrade enhanced the bathroom’s appeal and usability.

12-16-24 Return visit to check garage make up air unit#6 also, upon arrival found unit # 1 both units are not heating correctly.. Did find the temperature sensor for the maxi control system completely plugged up and defective. I will order two sensors and then install one of the units potentially has the amplifier not working either. Unit #6 Parts are on order

Upon arrival I began the furnace tune up. First, I did a static pressure test. This unit is rated for a maximum static pressure of .5 and the system is testing at .28 total which is passing. Next, I checked the running amps on the blower motor and it was testing within manufacturer specifications. I took a temperature split and the supply air was at 121 degrees - return air temp of 74 degrees = 47 degree temperature rise is within specs. The blower wheel is dirty and needs to be cleaned very badly. I also noticed the Evaporator Coil has lots of microbial growth on the top side of the coil. The underside is also very dirty. We recommend a Pristine UV light air cleaner and an electrostatic media filter to help keep the system clean and operating properly. If these things are not done, the unit will fail at some point. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to call us! Your LBA Technician, Tyler Rickard P.S. i took payment in the amount of $47 via CC for todays tune up spe

After running camera, we determined that it was too risky to run big auger machine due to the fact that the line had a high pitch and we were unable to push camera through. We created quotes for a Jetter and presented that to homeowner after he saw them we had him sign off so he could think about them for a few days.

I’m gonna have to return on this one. I’ve gotta pick up some parts. for now. Today I closed the ball valves. In the left side the center unit its blowing cold air I was able to exercise the isolation valve manually and get it to work. Also, the third one is doing the same thing. I will recheck these again when I come through the steam leak repair. The third floor bathroom washroom is reported that there was water on the floor underneath the radiator. We ran it and cycled it didn’t find any leaks. Also, the unit is working. The third floor bedroom I don’t have the exact number. that also I had to exercise the isolation valve and that one has been cycling fine. Down in the border of the room, the chemical feed tubing had a small leak in it. I got a hold of the chemical company and they came out and replace

Completed turnace maintenance and inspection. I checked airflow and temp splits. I tested for carbon monoxide and found none. Furnace is 4 yrs old. Furnace is running within manufacture specifications. I spoke with customer about ductwork and the dirt getting into the system. Eventually customer would like to have ductwork fixed and blower compartment cleaned out at the same time.

DATE: 12/10/24 Detailed description of what was done today: arrived at home and spoke with Brian about reason I was called today, for a kitchen sink that was clogged. After doing inspection of sink and pipe I had him sign off on our drain clearing special before getting started. I ran 65 to 75 feet of cable hallway to main stack and ran line inside to scrape the sides of pipe. After removing pipe out, I ran water which was flowing properly for about one minute. Then suddenly started to fill up again, I took P-trap off again, and ran back back down one more time for a little bit longer. After second, running with backpack, his line was opened up from all the grease that was in his. I let them know that if we have to come back out, it would be myself and another supervisor, because the grease it doesn’t just go away overnight. After collected payment and signatures, I cleaned up and headed out. Wear and Tear: -Drain clearing special . After reviewing the entire house I went over ever

12-10-24 Make up air units # 3,6 and 4 are not heating Units 3 and 6 were tripped off the high temperature limit, which is set @ 170° reset limit unit to running this time. We may have issues with dirty blower wheel. Unit # 4 The belts are off the pulley. Thr pulley are out of alignment by probably a good half inch I made those adjustments then I picked up new belts and installed checked. I went ahead and heavily grease the blower wheel bearings. Unit #6 Start again by the high limit I checked the temperature at the limit. It’s raining about 168 and the limit is at 175°. This could be airflow it could be a number of things.

One unit heater in the soap room for the wash bay serial 5199 has a locked inducer motor. The other unit is in the small wash bay on the north side of the truck wash building serial. 7008 has a bad gas valve. I order the parts from Lennox and will be shipped to the shop by end of this week and will need to return to install.

Arrived to remedy a system that is making excessive noise. Upon arrival homeowner mentioned that the system will make a popping noise when the fan would turn on and off. Upon inspection of the unit found water pouring out of the humidifier and humidifier drain. Restricted the humidifier water flow to keep water off the ground. Tried to recreate the noise the homeowner was talking about and was not successful. Turned the humidifier water back to full open and operated the humidistat to turn the humidifier on and off. Found that the solenoid valve would make a hammering noise when it would turn on and off. Set the water valve back to 25% open in an effort to prevent this. Installed a homeowner provided water panel and installed a metering orifice to make sure the system isn’t wasting excessive water. Tested system operations. Furnace is functioning properly at this time.

12/9/24 - Completed a full heating maintenance on one RTU. The filter size needed was (4) 16x20x2, but they have now been replaced. The heat exchanger was breeched, so the gas was shut off the unit. The unit did heat properly when tested, but it will not be heating until the heat exchanger is replaced.

Upon arrival I began the furnace tune up. First, I did a static pressure test on the system. This system is rated for a maximum static pressure of .5 and your system is testing at .48 which is below the maximum. Next, I checked the running amps on the inducer and blower motor and both were testing within specifications. I changed out the filter on the left side today which was a size 20x25x1 inch high velocity filter. The other filter on the right side was still clean today and it’s a size 20x25x4 inch filter. The temperature split in the house was within specifications at 47 degrees. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to call us! Your LBA Technician, Tyler Rickard P.S.
