Cooling operation and temperature

The system should be operated long enough to observe startup, thermostat response, temperature change, cycling, and visible operating conditions. Readings should be interpreted together rather than judged by one number alone.

Airflow and indoor equipment

Filter condition, blower operation, accessible coil condition, return and supply airflow, cabinet condition, and duct observations can reveal restrictions or maintenance needs. Correct airflow supports comfort and reliable equipment operation.

  • Correct filter size and installation
  • Accessible blower and coil observations
  • Supply and return temperature
  • Condensate drain and visible water
  • Unusual noise or vibration

Outdoor equipment and electrical components

Outdoor coils need suitable airflow. Accessible electrical components, wiring, disconnects, capacitors, motors, and controls should be observed or tested as appropriate for the system and service scope. Power must be handled by a qualified person.

Documentation and recommendations

A maintenance record should identify the equipment serviced, observations, measurements or checks performed as applicable, and recommended work. Documentation can support planning and may help with manufacturer, extended, or qualifying third-party warranty maintenance requirements.
