10/2/23: I watered 1 plant on the lanai based on my plant moisture meter readings. I started the car and let it idle during the service call. The toilet in the bathroom that has a tub will not fill. The fill mechanism is broken. I am using a pan from the kitchen to fill the tank in order to flush the toilet. The front storm door doesn’t latch. The shower head in the bath with the shower is leaking at the wall, so it’s tagged not to run the shower. I am using the pan mentioned above to fill the shower trap. The spot on the ceiling in the hall above the thermostat appears to have gotten larger to me but it does not look to be wet or darker. Could it be the spot bleeding through the paint?
10/2/23: Some mail but just sales fliers. Browning front plant, photo below. Both HVAC filters should be changed as they have mold growing on the top of each, photos below. I could not easily find replacement filters.
10/2/23: I watered 3 plants on the lanai as indicated I should by the soil moisture meter. Circuit breaker 34 (kitchen GFI) will not reset, so it will remain off. Several palm fronds in the yard. Brought in pool slip dated 9/27/23. Browning of the yard still has not recovered, reported previously.

9/29/23: I poured 4 ounces of vinegar down the HVAC condensate tube. I put the air handler door back on securely. There appears to be some ceiling issues that I can’t quite explain. First of all in the living room, there is some paint that seems to be sagging pretty much in the center have been watching it into me. It appears it’s gotten a little bit worse, photos below. There are also some shadows That appear to be old stains that are starting to come through in that area as well, photo flow. They are not wet looking as they don’t have a brown edge, so I think it’s just a bleedthrough stain. However, in the master bedroom, and the guest bedroom closet there are stains on the ceiling that look as if they’re wet, photos below. especially in the master bedroom as that stain is on the far outside corner and there’s paint that has bubbled on the wall. I’m not sure the photos will show that, but that makes me curious as to what may have happened. There is absolutely no dampness, wetness or water sitting anywhere just apparent ceiling damage.
