I will contact the customer for location. Bothe toilets had lids down, the guest toilet had the staring of mold at the waterline. I brushed cleaned each and then left the lids and seats in the upright position.
4/20/21: The kitchen sink faucet drips slightly. Dusty dirty conditions found in the bathroom being worked on. Some drywall paste found on entry carpet, photos below. Humidity is very high I like to see it under 60%, I turned the thermostat down see if I could get the humidity down. I waited for over 5 minutes after the system began to run however the temperature nor the humidity came down. I tested the temperature of the air coming out the guest bath vent and the lowest it would go down to was 77.5 degrees, this should running at least the low 60s. I put the Settings back to where I found them and notify the client.
4/20/21: Brought a new battery maintainer/charger for the vehicle & connected it after starting the car & letting it idle during the service call see photos below. The humidity level was over the acceptable level of 60% inside the residence when I arrived. I lowered the ac thermostat to 76 to circulate air & help mitigate the high humidity level. Will continue to monitor closely & adjust accordingly. Moved the storm shutters down then back up. 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.
4/20/21: The garage overhead door needs a new weather stripping on the bottom which is ok to wait until client returns to replace.

4/19/21: Went back to the residence to check on the pool water level & turn the well pump breakers off. The well pump was still working & the pool water level was back up to the optimal level of half the skimmer port after approximately 4-5hrs of filling the pool with the hose see photo below. Will run the hose in the pool during service calls going forward to try and help offset any evaporation of the water in between monthly service calls.
4/19/21: Watered 3 interior plants. Ran the dishwasher and ran the shutters up then down. Pulled the weeds on the lanai while the shutter was up. Moved the thermostat up to 76 based on the humidity today especially such a humid day. The outside concrete of the lanai is very dirty and should be powerwashed.
4/19/21: Noticeable smell of gasoline in the garage. I turned the thermostat down to 79° to help mitigate the high humidity inside the home.
4/19/21: Met with Travis from Gator Water Analysis & Treatment inc at the residence to turn on the breakers for the well pump equipment. Travis stated that ants had gotten into the equipment causing a short. Travis cleaned out the ants & was able to get the well pump equipment working again. I confirmed with Travis that the well pump & equipment were working before he left. I put the hose back in the pool & turned it on to raise the water level back up to the correct level see photo below. Will return in several hours to check the water level of the pool & turn the well pump breakers off. 2:15pm-3:15pm.
4/19/21: Toilets are off at valves as previously reported. Guest bath tub fixture valve is leaking, previously reported. Watered 0 plants on the lanai, as it had rained earlier. The alarm is to be off per client’s text earlier today.
4/19/21: Walked the house twice to ensure the water faucets were off to all showers, tubs, and sinks as well to ensure neither toilet tank was running. I found the humidity very high so I turn the thermostat to 76° and waited for the humidity to come down 4% so I could be assured and only was it cooling but also removing the humidity. This service call and the previous I had to hold the enter button down on the keypad for the garage door to close all the way. If it any point I pull my finger off it would stop and go back up.
4/19/21: Garage dehumidifier read 42. Both toilets water valves are off at the tank. Wine cooler read 55. Brought in seven sales flyers from mailbox. Kept thermostat at 76 degrees to help mitigate the humidity.

4/19/21: I found the ring at the top of the pool filter container was dripping photo below. I also found that the Watermain was on upon arrival which would indicate may be the filter is moved and cleaned but the water not turned off. The humidity inside was high but we have an exceptionally high humid day so I just turn the thermostat down by 1° to 77.
