🚨 No cooling? It might not be your AC — it might be your drain. 🚨
On this residential call, the unit had completely shut itself off. The culprit? A clogged condensate drain line that filled the drain pan with water and tripped the emergency float switch — exactly what that safety switch is designed to do. 💧
Here’s how Robert got it back up and running:
✅ Traced the blockage (water at the P-trap, but a bone-dry condensate pump)
✅ Vacuumed the line to clear the obstruction
✅ Cleaned out the drain pan and flushed the system
✅ Tested the full draining system end to end
✅ Re-secured loose wire nuts on the float switches and zip-tied everything above the water line to prevent future low-voltage shorts and control board damage ⚡
That last step is the difference between a quick fix and a job done right. We don’t just solve today’s problem — we make sure it doesn’t come back. 🐧❄️
