Break Room AC Units Stopped Working in Friendswood
What the customer reported
A Friendswood business reported units not working in the break room and lunch room, and asked for a look at the other units as well.
What we found and did
On the first visit, Adrian found the compressor was not starting up, and the dual run capacitor was reading 12.6 mf on the compressor side, so he replaced the dual run capacitor on the condenser. On the second visit, Matthew found that the contactor in the air handler was fried and broken up due to rust corrosion, and the drain pan was full of water because the drain line was not glued. He replaced the contactor, glued the drain line back together, and washed out the secondary drain pan.
Result
The system was cooling, and Matthew checked the pressure and the delta T and found them at optimal numbers.
