5/18/23: There was water around & underneath the ac air handler inside the residence when I arrived see photos below. The ac condensate drain line was full & the safety float switch on the drain line appears to have failed when the drain line clogged allowing condensate water to back up into the air handler & overflow out onto the water heater below. I turned off the ac for now to quit producing more condensate water & cleaned up all of the water I could with some towels. Will contact the client & advise them of the situation.

5/17/23: The pool level is below the skin report. However, there is water in the pool pump site glass. I talk to the homeowner and she said that the pool people were there yesterday, which is Tuesday. We together assume that the pool pump must be pulling from the bottom drain. The old granite countertop is still on the side of the house. I discussed with the homeowner and I believe the shutters that were cut down to a different size to fit hurricane shutters out front may still be in need of cutting down. I asked her if maybe the handyman tested any shutters to ensure they are size properly. There are two lamps in the dining room that are on and the homeowner said she would be turning them off remotely. Weeds growing in the pool/lanai paver cracks.
5/17/23: The pool was very low almost to the very bottom of the skimmer port. I ran the water all the time I was at your home and also when I went down to do another, and then I’ll come back to shut off the water.
5/17/23: The pool level was a little above a third of the skimmer port, so I ran water while I was here which brought it up an inch or so. The exterior sconces lighting on the garage above the house number was on upon arrival, I shut it off. I pulled the plug on the Alexa in the kitchen as suggested by the client. I found some dead flying ants just inside the slider to the lanai pool area, photo below. I left them there in the thought that you may want to call an exterminator and they should see and know where the problem is by leaving them there. I can sweep them up the next time I’m here. Some browning of the grass in the side yard, photo below.
5/17/23: Soon as I walked in the front door, I heard the front left guest bathroom toilet running so that is where we were having the issue with the water.
