5/4/21: Dehumidifier read 40. Poured vinegar down the HVAC condensation evac tube.
5/4/21: I found the humidistat set to off which is not where you need that set. Once at the office means don’t run the AC at all so your AC has not been running from the time that you left until now. I said the humidistat to 55%and waited for the humidity to drop down some it’s dropped two percentage points already so I think we’re good.
5/4/21: Water heater was on I turned off at breaker
5/4/21: Put the garbage cans in the garage, made sure the pool heater was off, turned the water main off when leaving & activated the alarm. Brought in a sun newspaper that was in the driveway when I arrived. The irrigation system is on. All storm panels are on the windows & storm shutters are closed. The ceiling fan by the front door is on. The master bathroom toilet water supply valve has corrosion on it see photo below. The humidity level was over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence. I lowered the ac thermostat to 79 to circulate air & help mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Poured approximately 2ozs of vinegar down the HVAC condensate drain line for preventative maintenance. Visual check of the boat photo below.

5/4/21: Humidity is still high and the AC system is not cooling I can’t stress how important it is to get this fixed I’m finding evidence of mold the longer it goes on the more problems you’re going to have with cleanup. The humidity inside should be somewhere below 60% it has been consistently 66+ percent and higher today I’m getting readings on 2 hygrometers of nearly 70% one actually was higher than 70%. Photos of the mold evidence below. Water main was on upon arrival, turned off upon departure. Kitchen cabinet door broken.
5/4/21: The humidity level was below 60% inside the residence when I arrived. I raised the ac thermostat to 75 for now. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. The garage overhead door needs a new weather stripping on the bottom which is ok to wait until client returns to replace.
5/4/21: The humidity level was back under 60% inside the residence after making the last adjustment. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. There is a section of floor tiles approximately 3’x 3’ in the den by the front door that are starting to raise, I have tagged them as such.
5/4/21: I found a Watermain on upon arrival shut off upon departure. It looks like a shelf collapsed in the freezer, photo below. There was some sort of pest dropping in the master bath tub, photo below. Could not determine that it was a gecko but I did not see anything damaged or chewed so I’m assuming it was. I clean these up we’ll see what it’s like next time
5/4/21: The screw that was laying on the master bedroom floor last service call came from the inside of the plantation shutter on the lanai door. I put the screw back into the middle hole and tried screwing it back in but it still appears to be loose in the hole and may fall out again see photos below.
