The hip is a bit high but it is Avery humid and wet day.11/15/23: I poured vinegar down the HVAC condensation evac tube and then chased it with water. I poured a few ounces of bleach in each toilet. Raining too heavy outside I would be drenched upon entering.

11/15/23: I poured vinegar down the HVAC condensate tube and then chased with water. It appears someone has been inside the townhouse. I say this for these reasons: the washer door was open and there are sheets (dry) inside it; the door to the garage was unlocked; and each toilet lid was down, something I never do.
11/15/23: 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 74 for now to circulate air & mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Storm damaged garage overhead door has not been replaced yet.
11/15/23: Monitoring all ceilings closely. Some window screens are dry rotted.
11/15/23: Plants on lanai were currently wet from rain. Pool pavers may need to be pressure washed soon. Mesh storm shutters are closed. Irrigation system is on.
11/15/23: Caught a live gecko off the inside of the front door when I arrived. The humidity level was over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence from the ac not turning on enough throughout the day due to lower outside temperatures. I lowered the thermostat to 76 for now to circulate air & mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Cleaned up several gecko droppings off the floors throughout the residence. Checked all wood floors thoroughly. There appears to be several sections of wood flooring separated near the laundry room entrance & in the kitchen. Checked damp rid bucket in master bathroom shower. Faint water stain around light in shower has not changed in appearance.
11/15/23: Made sure the water heater, range & ice maker were off. 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 humidistat to 50% for now to circulate air & mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Will pour 8ozs of Nuline down the ac condensate drain line every 90 days for preventative maintenance if applicable. Checked all damp rid buckets.
11/14/23: Pool level is an inch above the bottom of the skimmer port. The pool draws from the bottom drain of the pool according to the homeowner.
11/14/23: The carpets are now dry as expected. I move the thermostat from 75° to 78°, which I feel is a pretty fair setting for a vacant home such as yours. I tested again the tile in the guest bathroom, and cannot really determine any that are loose as thought by the previous tenant.
11/14/23: Water main was on upon arrival, off upon departure. The pantry light was on I turned it off. The door between the garage and home was not locked.
11/14/23: I watered all 7 plants on the lanai and the 2 out front based on the moisture reading of my plant moisture meter. I poured 4 oz of vinegar down the HVAC air handler condensate tube followed by 10 oz of water. The front weeds are in very good shape, very few at all. Weeds growing in the lanai pavers. The main long front pool cage screen has separated from the bottom channel, reported previously. The water is beginning to smell like rotten eggs, reported previously. I ran the hot water side of the system as long as possible in the tubs and shower especially hoping to reduce the smell some.

11/14/23: Hey HomeTeam pest Defense Sein was in the yard dated today 11/14/23. By definition. I can’t pull that until the following day so I have to leave it in the yard. There also several circuit breakers tripped photo below. I reset them all at the beginning of the service call and I checked them before I left and none had retripped.
11/14/23: I poured vinegar down the HVAC condensate tube then chased with water.
11/14/23: Browning in the yard persists, reported previously. I activated the alarm upon departure. Armadillo hole in back corner of home looks like it may be now inactive. I watered the plant in the kitchen.
11/14/23: I started the car and let it idle during the service call. Guest bathtub drain covered with cellophane. Your water is beginning to smell a bit like rotten eggs, which is normally caused by the annoyed bar or rod in your water heater, needing to be replaced. You can either have it replaced or when you come back run the hot water side of the system until the smell dissipates. The guest bedroom smoke detector is chirping, which indicates that you have a low battery that needs to be replaced.

11/14/23: I watered all the plants 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. 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?
11/14/23: The humidity level was back under 60% inside the residence after making the last adjustment. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. The last of the vinegar provided for the ac condensate drain line has been used & more bottles of toilet bowl cleaner are needed throughout the residence. A new ac condensate drain line cleaner product called Nuline is recommended.
