A large package has been placed in the garage see photo below. Brought in ten pieces of mail with a stack of sales flyers see photos below. There is a hairline crack in the stucco approximately 12” long below both the windows on the left side of the house. Some of the gutter downspouts around the residence may need some splash guards soon as the ground is starting to erode when it rains. Irrigation system is on. Left the water main on when leaving.12/28/23: Was able to enter the building today as the plastic has been removed from the front entrance since the last service call. The humidity level was over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence when I arrived from the ac not turning on enough throughout the day due to lower outside temperatures. I lowered the thermostat to 72 for now to circulate air & mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Checked all damp rids. Had to replace all bags & refill all small buckets. Sign taped to front window concerning painting. The previous water stain on the master bathroom ceiling above the bathtub has not changed in appearance. Will continue to monitor closely. Storm shutters on lanai are closed. Made sure the front door was completely closed & locked when leaving. Duct tape has been temporarily placed on the front door to prevent it from accidentally opening when nobody is present.

I lowered both humidistats to 45% for now to circulate air & mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Turned the water valve on & off on the front guest bathroom toilet for now when flushing it. A new quarter turn water supply valve is recommended as the older valves start to leak when repeatedly turned on & off. All storm shutters are closed. Closed the shutter over the front door when leaving. The left side of the front door storm shutter is sticking when going down.
12/28/23: Visual check of the car, battery maintainer lights were on. The water main valve under the sink still leaks a bit when turning on or off the water. Lower back wall of master bedroom has not yet been repaired.

12/28/23: There was mail in the mailbox, one looked important, photo below. I tried to start the car. It turned over several times but did not start. I then remembered you had said to pump it several time before starting but by that time the battery had ran down. Then placed a note on the steering wheel so as to remember next service call.
12/28/23: Sections of painting & breezeway ceiling repair on building still waiting to be finished. Replaced the ac air filter with a new air filter provided next to the air handler & wrote the date of installation on it. The humidity level was still over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence when I arrived from the system sitting idle. I lowered the thermostat to 68 for now to circulate air & mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Poured approximately .5oz of algae guard down the hvac condensate drain line for preventative maintenance. Checked the light timer in the living room. Checked all damp rid buckets.

12/27/23: The pool draws from the bottom drain of the pool according to the homeowner.
12/27/23: The watcher main to the home was partially open. I closed it fully upon departure. The car maintainer light was not lit. I found that the GFI under the electrical panel had been tripped. I reset it, and the light came on for the car battery maintainer. I removed all of the alkaline batteries from the remotes in the living room, the bedrooms the TV room/den. Water heater was on at the circuit breaker. I turned it off at the circuit breaker. There are two lights that are to remain on one in the guest bedroom and the other in the TV/den room.
12/27/23: The GFI on the wall where the gray cabinets are was tripped, I reset it. None of the locks on the door between the home and garage were locked upon my arrival but all 3 were locked upon my departure. The guest bathroom toilet had some mold growing inside the bowl at the water line. This happens when the toilet lid remains down and unopened for long periods of time.
12/27/23: I poured vinegar down the HVAC condensate tube chased by water. Only 3 plants needed watering according to the plant moisture meter. One under the enclosed lanai area, one out by the pool and the one inside the front screened area leading tot he front door.
12/27/23: Poured 4oz of vinegar down the HVAC condensate tube and then chased with 8 ounces of water.
12/27/23: The circuit breaker for the kitchen nook and lanai has continuously tripped in the past, so I am leaving it off. You are out of vinegar.

12/27/23: I did not need to water the plants on the lanai based on my plant moisture meter readings. I tried to start the car but it would not start. Could be a combination of a low battery and it’s cold out this morning. 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. Also the toilet in that bathroom runs continuously and is tagged as such. 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, reported previously. Could it be the spot bleeding through the paint? There was several aluminum pans from the carport out back that must have been damaged during a recent storm we had, photos below. I moved the one large piece to under the back area next to the car.

The humidity level was over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence when I arrived from the ac not turning on enough throughout the day due to lower outside temperatures.

Mesh storm shutters are closed. Irrigation system is on.
