A slow drip in the AC closet: a routine maintenance request by phone
At 8:47 PM a resident reports a slow drip in her AC closet, caught by towels. The AI concierge checks that it is contained, verifies her PIN, collects when it started, permission to enter and a callback number, opens a normal-priority request, texts a confirmation and tells her when to turn the AC off.

May maintenance enter unit 1-4-0-7 if no one is home?

Yes, that's fine. Maintenance can enter even if I'm not home.
-
AI concierge0:59
What callback number should maintenance use?

They can use the number you have on file for me. That's fine.

One moment while I take care of that. I've opened normal-priority request 2311 for a slow AC-closet drip in unit 1-4-0-7, noticed about an hour ago, with permission to enter and the number on file for callback. Please keep the towels in place; would you like a text confirmation?
-
Maria1:24
Yes, a text confirmation would be great, thank you.
-
AI concierge1:28
I've sent that text to the number on file. Is the drip still contained by the towels?
-
Maria1:33
Yes, the towels are still catching everything. It hasn't spread at all.
-
AI concierge1:39
Good, Maria. The drip is contained, and request 2311 is open; is there anything else I can help with?
-
Maria1:46
Should I turn off the AC tonight, or is it okay to leave it running until maintenance comes?
-
AI concierge1:52
If it remains only a slow, contained drip, you may leave the AC running, but turn it off if the dripping increases or water spreads. Is the water staying away from any electrical outlets or equipment?
-
Maria2:03
Yes, it's all just in the closet. Nothing's near any outlets or equipment.
-
AI concierge2:09
Thank you, Maria. Keep it contained and turn the AC off if the drip worsens; is there anything else I can help with?
-
Maria2:16
Thank you, Quinn. I appreciate your help. Have a good night. Goodbye.

Thanks for calling Harbor Point. Have a good evening.
What should a building do about a slow leak that is contained?
Compare this call with the ceiling leak call: same resident, same kind of problem, a different priority because the water is contained.
- Ask whether water is coming in now and whether it is contained.
- Verify the resident, then collect when it started, permission to enter and a callback number.
- Open a normal-priority request and send a confirmation.
- Tell the resident what to watch for. Here: turn the AC off if the drip increases or water spreads, and keep it away from outlets.
