4/21/22: Drive by. Met with handyman Mike Lewis & let him into the residence to give estimate for repairs. I made sure to activate the alarm & lock the front door when leaving.4/21/22: Drive by. Picked up a package & one piece of important mail see photos below. Will be bringing to the post office for forwarding.
4/20/22: Drive by. Opened up the residence for clients return. Turned the water heater on, lowered the ac thermostat to 71, turned on several lights & left the water main on when leaving.
4/20/22: The water main valve was on upon arrival, I shut it off upon departure. The alarm pad next to the door to the garage continues to beep. I removed all the alkaline batteries from the remotes to prevent possible corrosion while not in use. The ceiling fans are running in the master bedroom, the living room, the den and both guest bedrooms. It’s my experience and also a suggestion of FPL not to run ceiling fans when people or pets are not in the residence. Many people feel by moving air it helps prevent mold and mildew however that’s not the case if you have humid air fans will not dry the humidifier it just moves it around. So my suggestion would be to turn them off the next service call to save wear and tear as well as electricity.
4/20/22: The watcher main valve was on upon arrival, I turned it off before departure. There was a door knob hanger on the front door indicating on April 15 the boil alert had been lifted or rescinded, photo below. This could be why much of the water that I ran or flushed was murky looking and there was a great deal of air in the lines. I ran the water for an extended period of time in all sinks, tubs, showers and flushed the toilets several times. The water heater circuit breaker was on as well as the switch above the tank was on, so I shut the switch off about the tank.
4/20/22: Poured 2oz of bleach in each toilet.
4/20/22: I moved each thermostat up one degree to match last year’s setting. The humidity is exceptionally low so I’m sure it will be fine.
4/20/22: Dehumidifier read 45 and was running. Poured vinegar down the HVAC condensation evac tube chased by water. The door between the garage was cracked open, the handles was locked but not the deadbolt, photo below. I made sure the door was closed and both locks engaged.
4/20/22: I watered both plants in the kitchen, I put one glass of water in the plant on the counter and three glasses of water in the plant on the floor. The plant on the floor lost 6 leaves photo below. This is why I put an additional glass of water in this plant.
4/20/22: I poured 4oz of vinegar down the HVAC condensate tube chased by 10oz of water.
4/20/22: Picked up the check from the dining room table. Made sure the water heater, range & ice maker were off. The guest bedroom smoke detector battery compartment is open & the 9v battery is missing see photo below. The humidity level was over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence. I lowered the ac thermostat to 75 for now to circulate air & mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Mini fridge in dining room is off & door propped open.
4/20/22: Started the car & let it idle during the service call. I disconnected the battery maintainer before starting the car. There is a hairline crack in the stucco starting to show through underneath the right side of the back guest bedroom window. The smoke detectors are missing from all the ceilings throughout the residence. Checked the light timer in the living room. The left side lanai screen door is locked. Poured approximately 2ozs of vinegar down the hvac condensate drain line for preventative maintenance.
4/19/22: Run into pieces of mail from the mailbox they where sales flyers.
4/19/22: When I drove up there was a blue car pulling out of your driveway. When I walked in I see that there’s a bunch of cleaning supplies all over the house photos below and thermostat was turned down to 74° it hadn’t quite gotten down that low yet. Also the alarm was off upon entry. I’m assuming that the cleaning staff will be back later they might be just breaking for dinner at least that’s the way it appears. Do not change any settings on thermostat I did not change or move anything inside the house and I left the alarm off as I found it because of the circumstances. The pools is low and should be filled more than I can do in the time I’m here today. It’s not dangerously low but it needs water this week sometime. I could come back tomorrow but have several house yet today and won’t be able to get back here yet tonight. When does your pool company provide service this week?
4/19/22: Walked the house twice to ensure the water faucets were off to all showers, tubs, and sinks. I turned the valve to each toilet tank off because the client wants to leave the water main on.
4/19/22: I’ve pulled a dozen weeds from the lanai area around the pool. I’ve brought to the curb one large royal palm frond that is fallen next to the driveway. I found the water heater on at the circuit breaker so I shut it off. I found the front door unlocked so I made sure it was locked before I departed. The Xfinity cable box front is off and quite a ways down that bush line side of your home, photo below. Normally I would grab that box and try to put it on however all of those bushes along that side of your home are poisonous to me, just like poison ivy so I can’t get in there to get it.
4/19/22: Ran the storm shutters down & back up. The humidity level was back under 60% inside the residence after making the last adjustment. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly.
4/19/22: The ac thermostat still had a message on the display concerning the wi-fi signal. The humidity level was back under 60% inside the residence after making the last adjustment. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly.

4/19/22: There is a section of wood soffit that needs to be repaired above the water main handle on the right side of the house see photo below. The alarm system keypad had a warning on the display concerning an update when I arrived see photos below. Made sure the water heater, oven & ice maker were off. The lamp in the living room was on. I left it on. Found the batteries in the Roku tv remote severely corroded see photos below. All storm shutters are closed. Poured approximately 2ozs of vinegar down the hvac condensate drain line for preventative maintenance.
4/19/22: The Watermain valve was on when I arrived I turn it off upon departure. The water heater circuit breaker was on I turned it off. The dehumidifier was situated such that they warm air from the exhaust was blowing down the hall onto the thermostat. So I moved it slightly toward the living room so that it would blow onto the wall between the desk and the thermostat. So you understand what I did there’s a photo below. I found that the setting for the dehumidifier is working quite well it cycle several times while I was there. I removed all the alkaline batteries from the remotes that I saw, I do this so that they don’t corrode the inside of the remote.
4/19/22: The lawn has excessive browning in the front & back see photos below. The exterior left side garage light was blinking on & off when I arrived. The plastic sensor on the light appears to be broken causing the light to turn on & off see photos below. The pool heater appears to be on. Made sure the water heater, range/oven & ice maker were off. The garage side entry door & guest bathroom door handles were unlocked. All the dining room & living room sliding glass door pins were in place but the handles were unlocked. All the master bathroom water supply valves have excessive corrosion on them.
