Performed a complete inspection of a 40-year-old boiler, including combustion analysis with a UEi C161 analyzer to evaluate flue gas O2, CO, and CO2 levels, stack temperature, and combustion efficiency. Readings were recorded during testing to verify safe, stable operation and assess the unit's overall condition given its age.

Responded to a no-hot-water and leaking complaint on a gas tank-type water heater and inspected the unit, including the gas control valve, gas piping and connector, burner access panel, and surrounding fittings. Diagnosed the cause of the heat loss and leak, performed the necessary corrective work, and verified the unit was restored to safe, proper operation.

Performed a furnace tune-up, inspecting the burner assembly and confirming a uniform blue flame pattern, and checking the wiring harness, which was secured and in good condition. Ran a combustion analysis on the unit, which read O2 8.5%, CO 43 ppm, CO2 7.1%, and a flue gas temperature of 366°F, confirming safe and proper operation. The furnace was operating correctly at completion, with no repairs required.

Performed a flush of the tank-style gas water heater by connecting a drain hose to the lower drain valve and draining the tank to remove accumulated sediment and mineral deposits. Inspected the unit, gas control valve, shutoff valve, and surrounding piping, and found no areas of concern. Noted dampness on the surrounding floor from the draining process.

Performed a heating tune-up on the Bryant gas furnace, inspecting the burner assembly, gas valve, flame sensor, ignitor, and wiring connections. Burners displayed a stable, evenly distributed blue flame, and a combustion analysis recorded O2 at 8.4%, CO at 14 ppm, and CO2 at 7.1%, confirming clean and efficient combustion within safe operating parameters. System operated properly at completion.

Responded to a no-heat call and diagnosed a malfunctioning White Rodgers digital thermostat as the cause of the heating failure. Replaced the thermostat, verified proper operation and furnace response in heat mode, and noted a heavily soiled return air filter that should be replaced to maintain proper airflow and system efficiency.

Replaced the existing furnace, evaporator coil, and outdoor condenser with a new two-stage air conditioning system, and installed an ecobee smart thermostat. Completed system installation with a 700M model, with the new condenser set level on a pad and the refrigerant line set and electrical disconnect connected. The system was left clean, intact, and ready for operation.

Responded to a heavy leak at the bathroom sink drain line and inspected the drain assembly and associated PVC drain piping, including the wye branch fitting and connections in the basement run below. Identified and addressed the leak source, then verified the drain system was sealed and draining properly with no further leakage under flow.

Performed a routine tune-up on a 10-year-old gas furnace, including inspection of the burner assembly, gas valve, inducer motor, and wiring, with no abnormal conditions found. Conducted combustion analysis with burners firing a stable blue flame; readings showed CO at 0 ppm, O2 at 9.4%, CO2 at 6.6%, and flue temperature of 440°F, confirming safe and proper combustion. Furnace is operating normally with no issues identified.

Performed annual maintenance on a 2-year-old gas-fired heating system, including inspection of the heat exchanger and combustion components. Verified safe, proper operation using a combustion analyzer, with flue gas readings recorded at O2 9.4%, CO 23 ppm, CO2 6.9%, and stack temperature of approximately 316°F, all within acceptable limits. Noted that a replacement filter is needed.

Accessed the tub waste and overflow assembly through a wall opening and removed the obsolete drum trap, replacing it with a modern PVC waste and overflow configuration to restore proper drainage and venting. Inspected the surrounding corroded brass fittings and supply piping, noting heavy deterioration and debris in the floor cavity, and verified the new connections were secure and free of leaks.

Performed seasonal heating maintenance on a 3-year-old gas furnace, inspecting the burner assembly, gas valve, flue connections, and control wiring, with stable blue flames and no abnormal conditions observed. Verified combustion performance with a calibrated analyzer, recording O2 at 7.5%, CO2 at 7.6%, and CO at 8 ppm, all within acceptable operating limits. Noted light surface rust on gas piping fittings and brackets for monitoring, with the system operating safely and ready for the heating season.

Performed a flush on a tank-style water heater estimated to be over 10 years old by draining sediment from the tank and flushing until clear. Verified static water pressure at the heater at approximately 80 psi using a gauge on the hose-bib fitting, and noted heavy dirt, debris, and particulate buildup on the surrounding floor and wall area. No operational concerns were found with the unit.

Performed a seasonal heating tune-up on the gas furnace, inspecting the burner assembly, manifold, gas valve connections, and wiring harness, and verifying proper flame characteristics with a stable blue flame pattern. Conducted combustion analysis, recording O2 at 8.4%, CO at 8 ppm, and CO2 at 7.1%, confirming safe carbon monoxide levels and efficient combustion. System was left operating normally with no obvious signs of rust, breakage, or venting issues.

Performed a routine tune-up and inspection on a 20-year-old furnace, including cleaning and inspection of the centrifugal blower wheel, which had a light accumulation of dust and debris on the blades. Conducted a combustion analysis at the flue, with readings of O2 12.1%, CO2 5.0%, and CO 19 ppm, confirming the unit is operating within safe carbon monoxide limits. No frost, rust, or major damage was observed at the cabinet or ductwork.

Performed an on-site assessment for replacement of the existing furnace and air conditioning system. Inspected the outdoor condenser unit and its electrical disconnect and wiring, and evaluated the basement mechanical area, including the supply ductwork and available clearances, with no visible frost, rust, or damage noted. Gathered the information needed to size and prepare a replacement estimate for the new equipment.

Performed seasonal heating maintenance on a 3-year-old gas furnace, inspecting the burner assembly, gas valve, manifold, wiring harness, and inducer motor with the access panel removed. Burners displayed a stable blue flame with no signs of rust, ice, or damage, and components showed only light dust and normal wear. Combustion analysis was performed with a calibrated analyzer to verify safe operation, and the system was confirmed to be operating properly at completion.

Performed annual tune-up on a four-year-old furnace, including a combustion analysis with a calibrated analyzer to verify safe operation and proper combustion performance at start-up and during steady-state operation. Flue gas readings, including CO levels and stack temperature, were recorded and the unit was confirmed to be operating properly with no additional issues or concerns identified.

Performed a scheduled tune-up on a 4-year-old furnace operating properly with no reported issues. Inspected the condensate drain line, couplings, and cabinet connections, and verified combustion performance with a calibrated analyzer (O2 12.2%, CO 22 ppm, CO2 4.9%), confirming safe, normal operation. Noted loose foil-faced insulation at the cabinet; unit left in proper working order.

Inspected the leaking faucet and the slow-draining bathroom sink drains, and assessed the supply and drain lines in the accessible crawl space beneath the fixtures. Found heavily corroded cast iron drain fittings and aged, deteriorated piping with dust, debris, and wood decay in the surrounding framing, which are consistent with restricted drainage flow. Documented the condition of the lines with photos for further evaluation and recommended repair.
