9/15/22: There appears to have been activity inside the residence since the last service call & the dishwasher was running when I arrived. The portable dehumidifier in the garage storage room was off & the bucket was full of water when I arrived. I discovered that the dehumidifier was not draining through the drain hose due to not enough pitch on the drain hose because the new dehumidifier is shorter than the old dehumidifier. I had to cut several inches off the drain hose & raise the dehumidifier off the ground using some old floor tiles in the storage room to get enough pitch on the drain hose to start draining. Will continue to monitor closely. Checked the damp rid bag in the master bedroom closet. Checked the old water stain by the upstairs window. It is currently dry to the touch & has not changed in appearance. Monitoring all previous water stains on the ceilings closely.

9/15/22: Weeds growing in the cracks of the pavers on the lanai, reported previously, current photos below.
9/15/22: Checked plumbing inside residence before turning the water main on. Kitchen remediation photos below. Breaker panel is too difficult to figure out which breaker is for the water heater. Breaker panel needs to be relabeled.
9/15/22: The deadbolt on the front door would not release the key in the locked position when I was trying to leave. I was almost unable to remove the key in the unlocked position after trying for several minutes. The front door is currently in the unlocked position. The deadbolt will either need to be repaired or replaced by a locksmith. Will contact the client & advise them of the situation. There were no vehicles or watercraft in the parking space. Checked all damp rid buckets. Storm shutters on lanai are closed.
9/15/22: The left sink in the master bathroom has half the water pressure the right has. Your water has a sulfuric smell to it which usually indicates that the anode bar within the water heater needs to be replaced. A temporary solution could also be to have someone flush your water tank or run your hot water side valves for an hour or two prior to your arrival in Florida.
9/15/22: The storm shutters on the lanai are closed.
9/15/22: Poured approximately 2ozs of vinegar down the hvac condensate drain line for preventative maintenance.
9/15/22: I walked the house twice at the end to be sure all valves and showers were off. I also made sure the toilets were not running either. I do this because the water main is to stay on. The bush/tree out front is leaning even more, as reported previously. The water has a sulfuric smell to it indicating the anode bar in the water heater may need replaced. The other temporary solution would be to flush the tank or run the hot side water only for an hour to an hour and a half to flush the tank prior to anyone coming down to occupy the home.
