Upon arrival tech found both systems not working, main split system is cutting out due to TXV restriction. Indoor TXV will need to be replaced customer is working with home warranty on this system. Bedroom’s system is low on refrigerant tech was unable to find leak due to snakes in crawl space customer called exterminator and will call us back when it’s taken care of. Tech charge system to spec to get system back up and cooling. Tech informed customer about maintenance plan customer is interested but needs to talk to wife. Tech informed customer on ductwork in poor condition

Tech reinstalled capacitor for blower

Upon arrival tech was informed system was freezing up. Tech turned system on and found the blower motor did not initially come on and had to cycle power to get it on, condenser did come on. Tech checked pressures and subcool was low at 2 degree and called for 8 degree. Tech believed it was low on Freon. Pressures began to jump up and tech found blowing slowing down then ramping back up. It would completely stop then after a power cycle would come back on. Tech informed homeowner that blower motor was failing and that is potentially why system was freezing. Homeowner refused replacement at this time and said she would go to her bank to try and get new system she was quoted by field supervisor. No charge due to premium customer. Tech reinstalled blower motor but left system off at breakers in system.
