Call came in from a homeowner on Ridge Road who said the system just wasn't keeping up — rooms felt stuffy and the air handler seemed to be running constantly without making much of a difference. When the tech got there, he found the air filter was completely clogged, the evaporator coil had a significant buildup of dust and debris restricting airflow, and the blower wheel itself was coated enough to throw off the fan's efficiency. The system was a mid-2000s Carrier split unit, and it was clear routine upkeep had been skipped for at least a couple of seasons. The tech cleaned the evaporator coil, pulled and cleaned the blower wheel, replaced the filter, and checked refrigerant charge and static pressure readings before clearing the job — static pressure had been running high due to the restriction, and once that cleared up the system was moving air properly. Homeowner called back the same afternoon to say the house felt noticeably different, and the unit had finally cycled off for the first time in days.
