Call for gas leak. Arrived and met with Mr. Craig on site. He explained that the gas company came out and said there is a gas leak. They confirmed that it could be detected inside the home, strongest seeming to be in the bathroom. After inspecting I found the following: Gas main on the left of the home. Home has gas water heater, gas stove, and previously had a gas furnace. Gas leak present and corrected at a union on the gas meter. Inside crawlspace, black iron, galvanized, and copper gas lines were present. When turning the meter on briefly, the meter ran constantly at full capacity, as if a gas line was disconnected somewhere. I verified stove and water heater were not disconnected. Crawlspace showed an old copper line, presumably serving the old furnace. When I turned the valve off, gas stopped escaping. Upon further inspection and during a separate repair, I found that the copper gas line had been severed roughly and left open. It appears that the line was cut with a saws all or

Customer originally called us out due to water damage, discovered on the floor. Upon performing an initial diagnostic evaluation, we determined that the source of leak was a waste line located within the wall that had been punctured by screw or nails. During our investigation, visible corrosion, and rust staining were present around the affected area, indicating that the fasteners had likely been embedded in pipe for an extended period of time. The prolonged exposure caused the screws and or nails to deteriorate and rust, resulting in a leak and subsequent water damage. Presented the customer with options for the necessary repairs, including removal and replacement of compromise section of piping. Customer approved the proposed work. Made appropriate repairs and thoroughly tested. All approved. Work has been completed and is functioning as intended.

Call for water heater estimate. Met with Ms. Marjorie. She had a waterline installed and has been concerned with the noise the water heater is making. I inspected unit, and found it to be approximately 9-10 years old. The unit does not have a thermal expansion tank installed. The gas drip leg has a minor gas leak on the side branch of the tee. This leak was confirmed via gas leak detector and bubble solution, and video is attached. New waterline is 3/4 pex piping. The pipe is brought through the garage foundation without sleeping, using electrical tape asa sleeve. The grounding has been left disconnected under water heater. I was not able to determine if grounding was present elsewhere in the home. When checking the pressure, i found that there is a sure Wilkins double union PRV under the water heater. This has been replaced at some point in the past, but is not functioning. Pressure at front spigot read 100 psi, water heater and back spigot reads approximately 30 psi. Water heater

For this customer, they have a water heater from 2016. It is a green water heater. The water heater has been off for a couple of months and or years unknown and it has started to grow bacteria inside of the unit however, the customer also complains of a smell indicating that it’s a possible issue with the anode rod inside of the water heater. However, the thermal expansion tank is not properly melted nor is the temperature and pressure relief line in order to properly do that would be in for more money rather than actually bringing the water heater up to code and go ahead with just a replacement. That is what I recommend at this time as we were replaced the unit. The customer advised us that he would like to pull a permit, so we can properly get the unit inspected. Customer is getting another estimate for this unit and he will get back to us on when he would like to get it installed. When we do this water heater, we will make sure that it passes inspection is up to code compliance.
