Our technician completed heat pump maintenance, including replacing the air filter, rinsing the coils, flushing the drain line, and inspecting the electrical components, ductwork, blower, and refrigerant system. Dirt and dust buildup was found on the blower motor, ductwork, and outdoor coil. We recommended cleaning the blower wheel and outdoor coil, professional duct cleaning, and an optional whole-home air purification system to improve airflow and indoor air quality. After maintenance, we tested the system and confirmed it was operating properly.

Our technician completed a full AC maintenance visit, replacing the filter, rinsing the coils, flushing the drain line, checking the drain pan, electrical components, refrigerant system, and overall operation. We found that the emergency drain pan lacked a safety switch and showed signs of previous water. We recommended adding a switch to help prevent water-related damage. The outdoor coil was also heavily clogged with dirt and debris, so the homeowner approved a thorough cleaning. After cleaning the coil, panels, and fan, we tested the system and confirmed the AC was operating properly.

Our technician performed a complete seasonal AC maintenance visit. That included checking the temperature split, evaluating ductwork condition, replacing the air filter, and checking the amperage of the blower, compressor, and fan. We also rinsed the coils, flushed the drain line, inspected the drain pan for cracks, tested the capacitors, and verified the refrigerant charge.

During the visit, we identified two items worth the homeowner's attention. First, while there was a safety float in place at the condensate trap, the emergency drain pan had no safety device of its own. We found evidence of past water in the pan (light rust), though no active water was present during the visit. We recommended installing an emergency drain pan safety switch that shuts the system off automatically if water ever backs up or leaks, protecting the home from potential water damage.

Second, we found the outdoor unit's coil was clogged on the back side. A clogged coil makes the system work harder, which hurts both performance and long-term reliability. We recommended a heavy scrub to restore proper airflow. The homeowner chose to move forward with the heavy scrub, completed on-site that day. We removed the fan and panels and washed the coil from the inside and outside several times until it was completely clean, then cleaned the panels and fan and reassembled everything. We verified full operation upon completion. The system is cooling properly under present conditions.
