Inspected the main breaker panel, noting its available breaker spaces, circuit directory, and accessibility, and reviewed the adjacent basement area as a potential routing path for conduit and wiring. Documented existing conditions, including cluttered access, exposed ceiling insulation, and overhead drain and duct runs, which will be addressed in planning the transfer switch placement and wiring route.

Performed an on-site electrical estimate for installing a dedicated 50-amp circuit to a backyard hot tub, with the service panel located in the unfinished basement, and evaluated the cable routing path and panel capacity. Also assessed two bathrooms for the addition of three new outlets, and documented existing conditions with photos to support scoping of the proposed work.

Performed annual heating tune-up on Goodman gas furnace, inspecting the PVC intake/exhaust venting, flue connection, and coupling clamp, along with the plenum insulation and supply ductwork. Verified the system is properly vented and the 16x25x1 return filter location is accessible, and confirmed the unit is operating normally.

Performed a complete furnace super tune-up, including inspection and cleaning of the gas valve assembly, which showed heavy dust and lint accumulation with surface corrosion on the valve fasteners and mounting bracket. Borescope inspection of the internal heat exchanger surface revealed localized pitting and rust perforation, indicating potential heat exchanger failure. Documented findings with photos and recommended further evaluation and repair or replacement to ensure safe operation.

Conducted an in-home sales estimate for replacement of a propane furnace and central air conditioning system, both operational at approximately 16 years of age. Inspected the equipment and surrounding installation, noting a whole-house bypass humidifier tied into the supply ductwork and drain piping, along with sealed galvanized trunk ductwork and torn R-19 kraft-faced batt insulation in the attic or crawlspace area. Documented existing conditions with photos to support system replacement options and proposal.

Evaluated a reported slow leak on one of two side-by-side basement tank-style water heaters, with the left unit equipped with a power vent blower and PVC vent. Inspected the units, copper supply piping, and PEX manifold connections for leak sources and documented the installation with photos; no visible rust, frost, or active leaks were observed at the time of the estimate. Unit age is undetermined pending data plate verification, and the findings were assessed to provide a replacement recommendation.

Performed a complete furnace super tune-up on an approximately 3-year-old system, including inspection and cleaning of the burner assembly, flame sensor, and heat exchanger; verification of ignition sequence, gas pressure, and safety controls; and testing of the blower motor, capacitor, and airflow. Checked the thermostat operation and flue/venting integrity, and confirmed the system is operating within manufacturer specifications. Inspected the exterior condenser unit (clean, intact, no visible damage) and treated the condensate system with pan tablets to help prevent algae buildup and drain clogs.

Performed an on-site water heater replacement estimate for a 14-year-old Bradford White unit manufactured in 2021, inspecting the existing tank, flexible water connectors, brass fittings with shutoff valve, and surrounding venting, copper supply lines, and PEX distribution piping, which showed no visible leaks, rust, or corrosion. Documented existing conditions with photos and reviewed options for adding a whole-house water softener and a point-of-use reverse osmosis system on the refrigerator supply line.

Installed a new Bradford White power-vent gas water heater on a drain pan, connecting the copper water supply lines with shutoff valves, gas supply with gas control valve, and PVC vent piping with the power-vent blower assembly. Verified all connections were secure and the installation was free of visible leaks.

Performed annual heating inspection and boiler tune-up, including evaluation of the radiant hydronic manifold system, actuators, zone controls, and associated gauges and valves. Noted scorching and discoloration on the plywood backing and adjacent copper piping near the upper right of the manifold cabinet, indicating a possible overheating or electrical concern that warrants further evaluation. Documented system condition with photos; recommend follow-up repair assessment and confirmation that the snowmelt loop is charged with the required glycol mixture.

Replaced the sediment filter cartridge on the whole-house water filtration system by isolating the water supply, relieving system pressure, removing the spent cartridge, and installing a new filter element. Restored water flow, purged trapped air, and verified proper operation with no leaks at the housing or fittings.

Installed a new gas furnace and matching outdoor air conditioning condenser system. The furnace was set on a drain pan with new sheet metal ductwork, PVC condensate and venting connections, and the outdoor condenser was placed on a level pad with an insulated refrigerant line set, electrical disconnect, and control wiring connected. The system was completed and left clean, with no visible leaks or damage.

Performed annual heating inspection and verified system operation, including the installed humidifier. Inspected the condensate pump and discharge piping, confirming secure PVC connections, proper electrical wiring, and unobstructed condensate drainage. Noted light moisture staining near the pump base; recommend monitoring for leaks.

Completed annual heating maintenance visit on EnergiAir system. Performed comprehensive inspection of heating equipment, checked all mechanical components, and verified proper operation. System is functioning within normal parameters and ready for the heating season.
