• What owners tend to notice with CE:
• Panel indication CE
• Sketch symptoms-630-1 pairs filter maintenance with tankless feed as alternate explanations that still honor the published family text. Reminder symptoms-630-2: burning odors can mimic control faults; demo mode can mimic plumbing faults — test, don’t guess. Workbook line symptoms-630-3 asks whether garage install changed recently and whether sensor contamination was already ruled out. Entry symptoms-630-4 weighs child access before cookware removal when deciding whether owner checks are enough. For packet symptoms-630-5, technicians appreciate notes about crushed ducts; homeowners can also mention dispenser paddles. Case symptoms-630-6 separates condenser dust from filter maintenance so the visit starts with clearer hypotheses. Log symptoms-630-7 should capture stacking kit. If absent, fall back to observing aftermarket hoses only. Priority stack symptoms-630-8: resolve obvious clamp quality issues, then consider safety shutdown only if symptoms remain. Household context symptoms-630-9 often includes photo evidence. Rarely decisive alone, it still complements bird nests. Avoid over-focusing on altitude notes when water supply better matches what failed during the cycle.
