Bryan Orr continues his residential heat pump maintenance training for the Kalos team. In this lesson, he covers condenser coil cleaning, checking condenser components, indoor unit inspections, and more.

Key topics include:

Properly washing condenser coils with water or cleaner
Inspecting condenser components like mufflers, accumulators, crankcase heaters, contactors
Suction line and liquid line filter driers
Compressor plugs and terminals
Splitting condenser coils on clogged multi-row units
Indoor observations - supply ducts, air leaks, evaporator cleaning
Cleaning evaporator coils, including cleaning in place vs. pulling and cleaning
Customer communication around needed repairs and upgrades
Media filters

Bryan emphasizes doing quality work without throwing others under the bus when previous maintenance procedures weren't done very well. He challenges the team not to get bored with maintenance procedures but to dive deeper and find ways to improve each system. The goal is to provide real value to customers while continuously honing their expertise.
