4/26/22: 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 remain on. The pool water timer valve was leaking quite a bit when I first arrived, photo below. I removed it to see if the gasket had any issues but it didn’t. After I put it back on and retained it it didn’t leak anymore. The pool is it about a third of the skimmer port so I put the timer on 120 and left it run while I was providing the service call and after. There are two plants that are dying around the house photos below. The front lawn is quite dry, photo below.

4/26/22: The water main valve was on upon arrival, I turned it off before departure. I said the battery maintainer up on the car and it was operating upon my departure. I found the thermostat fan setting to ON when it should be set to AUTO. Due to the setting there was high humidity inside your condo. The fan runs constantly actually helps build humidity inside. I turned it to AUTO and set the thermostat to 76° for the next two weeks in order to draw the humidity out. I waited several minutes until the system kicked in and was cooling when I left.
