5/24/22: Left the water main on when leaving per the client.
5/24/22: I turned off the exterior garage light off. The humidity in the home was 52.5%. Garage humidity was 66.7%.

5/24/22: Poured 4oz of vinegar down the HVAC condensate tube and then chased with 8 ounces of water. Browning of the back lawn, reported previously. When I placed my truck keys on the valve near the water main the handle simply fell off, photo below. I could not find the nut in the mulch that holds it on even using a magnet. I brought the handle inside to the garage so it wouldn’t get lost.
5/24/22: Some weeds & grass are starting to pop up in the landscape beds see photos below. There was a message concerning an update on the security system tablet display see photo below. Ran all faucets & showers on the hot side to prevent odors from building up in the water heater per client. Checked all light timers. North lanai door is unlocked on the inside for pool maintenance.

The front door needs new weather stripping. The garage side entry door has wood rotting on the bottom of both sides of the door frame.
5/24/22: The water main valve was on upon arrival I turned it off of Pine departure. The humidity inside your home was nearly 69% this is too high. The thermostat was set to 82° and the thermostat was reading 80° inside. The humidistat was at 60. I move the thermostat down to 75° and the humidistat 250 so that the system would run and begin to cool and it did. Within 10 minutes the humidity had been dropped by 7%. Moving forward a setting of 75° on the thermostat and 55 on the humidistat is suggested as when I try to turn the humidistat back to 60 it’s shut down at 55 which indicates it’s probably not calibrated properly. There’s nothing you can do about a humidistat that isn’t calibrated correctly to the digits on the outside just need to know where to set it during your summer months. The master bath shower only dribbles when I turned it on, and the right side sink has a slow drain. The water heater was on at the circuit breaker and switch above the water heater I turned that switch above the water heater off as there’s no need to heat water that’s not going to be used. Garbage disposal is frozen I Fried it three times and three times it just stopped so it’s gonna need to be looked at eventually.
5/24/22: Ran water into the pool during the inspection to help keep the water level up. Did not find any pool service slips. Ran the outside shower per the client. Both pool cage doors are locked.

5/24/22: One of the screens on the front of the lanai to the left of the screen door is torn along the bottom. Turned all water on first, let it run during the entire serve call & flushed the toilet several times per the client. Poured approximately 2ozs of vinegar down the hvac condensate drain line for preventative maintenance. The left side kitchen sink trap is tagged for leaking when water is running. Visual check of the dock & boat ramp photos below.
5/24/22: I checked the pool first thing found it to be at a third of the skimmer port height so I ran water in it the entire time I was here. The key is in position for this afternoon’s visit.
5/24/22: Brought in one piece of mail see photo below. Both screen doors on the lanai are locked.
5/24/22: The humidity level was below 60% inside the residence again. I raised the thermostat to 76 for now to save energy. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Checked all light timers. The wood siding on the back right side of the house is starting to rot along the bottom. The garage overhead door has light showing through which is allowing dirt & leaves to come into the garage & needs a new weather stripping on the bottom.
