10/28/21: The humidity level was over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence when I arrived. I lowered the thermostat to 76 for now to circulate air & help mitigate the high humidity level. The current container of vinegar for the hvac condensate drain line is empty. Will need another container of vinegar by next service call. The storm shutters on the back lanai are closed.10/27/21: Photos of the new ac system below. The humidity level was slightly over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence. I lowered the thermostat to 78 to circulate air & help mitigate the high humidity level. The new ac came on & appeared to be working correctly. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. The guest bathroom toilet is tagged for leaking from between the base & the floor when flushed. Was unable to run water in the guest bathroom shower as it is currently under construction. Poured approximately 2ozs of vinegar down the hvac condensate drain line for preventative maintenance. Visual check of the car. Made sure to turn off both water mains when leaving.
10/26/21: The pool level is 1/2 skimmer port. Water main to the house is off.
10/26/21: Pool level is now 1/2 skimmer port. Water main to the house is off.
10/26/21: 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. I found a permit for storm shutters at the front door under the slate rock that came off the front months ago, photo below. I left it there as it is required to be there for county inspectors.
10/26/21: Found the pool level a bit concerning so I hooked up the hose to run while I go do another home or two and I’ll come back and shut the water off. Weeds on the lanai as described in past reports
10/26/21: The right side screen door to the pool area had been propped open about an inch and a half. The pool itself is very low so I’m going to leave the water running into it as I do the next 2 homes and I will return to shut it off. Found the green security sign out front snapped off. I looked at the front door sweep as I said I would, and found that it was the leading edge of the bottom door sweep that is ripped halfway. There are several other edges leading to the house pass that one and I could not see any light under the door. I looked but couldn’t see any place to adjust the door sweep. I would think that just cutting that piece off that has ripped will not harm the rest of the functioning door sweep.
10/26/21: Put fake palm tree plant back on lanai. Hose reel was out of place on the side of the house, I put it back.
10/26/21: The armadillo hole that was dug at the corner near the water main is active again, photo below. The armadillo is also digging in the muck, photo below.
