A Garner homeowner reported that the A/C was not working on their Fujitsu ductless mini split, and the unit was flashing 2 9 LED codes.
Jeorell and Bernard determined that the 2 9 LED codes indicate a 4 way valve error. After doing research, they found the system was about 15-16 years old and discussed replacing the mini split with the homeowner. The homeowner approved the replacement, and the team arranged to confirm an installation date.

A Garner homeowner in the 27529 area reported that the unit was not working and the system was not cooling.
Dexter, Jeorell, and Manny found the thermostat wires connected to the wrong ones. They rewired the system properly so each thermostat wire was on its correct connection.
After the rewiring, the unit started working.

A Garner homeowner in the 27529 area reported that the system keeps blowing fuses.
The fuses were blowing because a wire was touching in the condenser unit. On the first visit, the wire was traced, moved, and taped up, and the fuse was replaced. On a return visit, Bernard found the condenser fan motor unbolted and re-secured it, read a low-pressure switch open fault on the defrost control board, and connected gauges to find the system completely depleted of R-410A refrigerant, then pinpointed the leak to a crack in the copper tubing/capillary connection running from the outdoor TXV into the suction line. He recommended repairing the damaged tubing, replacing the filter-drier as needed, pressure testing with nitrogen, evacuating the system, and recharging with R-410A to manufacturer specifications.
After the wire repair and fuse replacement the system was working properly, and the refrigerant leak source was confirmed and documented with photos.
Jeorell
August 2026
On a return visit to a Garner home in the 27529 area, where a drain line safety switch (SS2) had been installed to prevent condensation issues in the crawlspace, Jeorell found the SS2 was tripping because a wire nut was not tight enough. He fixed the wire so the safety switch connection was secure.
The system was cooling at the time of departure.
I hired Element Service Group for a tune-up on my HVAC system. The tech, Manny Teagan, greeted me with a smile and was exemplary in his professionalism and consideration for protecting my property. I really appreciated the way he communicated with me—not only regarding his arrival time but, more importantly, the steps he would be taking to service my unit, why they were necessary, and a verbal report of his findings when he was finished. He answered my questions clearly and patiently, advised me of the benefits of a maintenance plan without pressuring me to commit, and followed up with information via email for my consideration, in addition to a detailed report of the services performed. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, especially since I received VIP service at a discounted rate.

I had Element Service Group install a new AC system at my home, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. They were professional every step of the way, communicated clearly, and did quality work. Everyone I dealt with was friendly, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. Great people and great service. I would definitely recommend Element Service Group.

Read articlePopular Garner neighborhoods like White Oak Creek and Buffalo Creek have homes with original builder-grade AC systems now 15-20 years old, past peak efficiency and increasingly repair-prone.
Garner's established areas like Vandora Springs and Heather Hills have homes with AC systems still using phased-out R-22 refrigerant, making even simple repairs prohibitively expensive.
Many Garner homes built in the 1990s-2000s have single-zone AC systems where upstairs bedrooms run 5-8°F warmer than the ground floor during summer months.
Garner's explosive growth from Raleigh spillover means high demand for AC services during summer, making preventive maintenance and early scheduling essential for homeowners.

Answered by our licensed technicians serving Garner.
AC replacement in Garner ranges from $5,000 to $13,000 depending on system size, efficiency rating, and home configuration. Older Garner homes in Vandora Springs may need ductwork updates. We provide free estimates with transparent pricing and financing.
Most AC systems in Garner's climate last 12-15 years. Homes in White Oak Creek, Heather Hills, and Buffalo Creek built in the 2000s are entering the replacement window. If your system uses R-22 refrigerant or needs repairs costing more than 50% of replacement value, it's time to upgrade.
For Garner's hot, humid summers, we recommend 16 SEER2 minimum with 18-20 SEER2 ideal for larger homes. The higher efficiency offsets Garner's long cooling season from May through September and maximizes Duke Energy rebate eligibility.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency AC service throughout Garner. Our technicians reach Garner quickly via US-70, I-40, or US-401. No extra charges for emergency calls, which is important during Garner's high-demand summer months.
