Today, I arrived on site for heating maintenance on the furnace. Cleaned the flame sensor to improve performance. Noted a faint smell of gas from the burners, indicating a failing gas valve. Observed heavy rusting on the back end of the middle burner, potentially due to improper combustion. Inspected the blower wheel and housing; they were mostly clear of debris but slightly dirty. Checked the furnace condensate, which was free and clear. Inducer motor was making a sound; its FLA registered at 2.8, while the furnace inducer flutes were between 1.6 and 2.2, suggesting the inducer motor is going bad. Blower amps were found to be within specifications. Furnace shut off due to a dirty filter, which was pulled and washed outside.

Instead of going only 100 feet up the channel directly across from the channel going to the city, we now will continue to go 200 feet up that channel.

arrived at location to snake line on first floor public bathroom, when went inside a hole was cut out and the pipe was exposed a Tee, 1-1/2 pipe, ran my cable and about 5ft in my cable was getting caught and having a hard time pulling the item out, after multiple times pulling back and forth I was unable to clear the line, in which we will have to cut a hole in the wall inorder to make the repair, won't be able to do work today due to the occupancy of the building, customer will like to do an after hours job or wait until spring break. customer will like a quote for this job.

Got a call asking me to assist Ramon on a call he was fighting since eleven o' clock the previous night. I went to the job and found Ramon in a difficult situation. I helped him get the 180 of cable out of the sewer and then went and got the jet. We cleared the line from the manhole at 50 feet. I got the camera sent out and found a conduit had impaled the sewer at that 50 foot mark. We are more than certain that this damage to the sewer was caused by the electricians who installed a new outdoor power panel for the booster pumps. I told Kevin I would get him a proposal to repair the pipe but I will also need to talk to the electricians about the service line to this " new panel".

Commercial Hydro-Jetting: went to job with the camera and the jet. Ran camera while jet filled but couldn't see much. Cleared line with the jet and also ran more distance. We looked in the clearer line now and saw a mortar like substance obstructing the first 25 feet of pipe. Some of it I was able to retrieve but the majority I could not. I made video of this obstruction. This material is locked in place and the pipe must be replaced. I will make a proposal.

Leak In Suite Ceiling: arrived at the job site. the showed where the leak was coming from. I took all the soft ceiling off to make sure it was any piping running around the. and it was some.
