What Does a Four-System Heating Tune-Up Include in Raleigh?

Raleigh · November 2026 · Nick, Matthew & Dexter · From our service records

What we found and did

During the inspection of the 1st floor gas pack unit, Matthew found some corrosion on the heat shield, flame sensor and flame ignitor, as well as a weak inducer motor capacitor. On the three gas furnaces, he inspected and cleaned the flame sensors, tested the flame ignitors, the amp draw to the blower motors and inducer motors, the run capacitor, the pressure switches and the gas manifold pressures, and took a temperature split between the supply and return duct work. On the heat pump, he tested the amp draw to the outdoor compressor and fan motor, the dual run capacitor, refrigerant pressures and the contactor, tested the blower motor amp draw at the attic air handler, and cleaned the condensate P trap. He also strongly suggested surge protection for the 2nd floor heat pump (one for the air handler, one for the condenser) and one for the 1st floor addition furnace in the crawl space, with estimates to be sent by email.

Result

All four systems were operational when the technicians left.

Heat Exchanger Crack Found During Furnace Check in Raleigh

What we found and did

Mario found that the heat exchanger had a small crack and discussed its replacement with the homeowner. He started inside the home by checking thermostat operations and filter conditions, then moved to the attic furnace to visually inspect the ductwork, refrigerant lines, drain lines, wire connections, and blower wheel cleanliness. He measured voltage, blower amps, inducer amps, and the blower capacitor, cleaned the flame sensor and igniter, and adjusted gas pressures to manufacturer specifications.

Is Growth Inside My HVAC System Normal in Raleigh?

Raleigh · October 2026 · Dexter · From our service records

Is Growth Inside My HVAC System Normal in Raleigh?

What we found and did

The 2nd floor unit had growth in the system, and the ductwork needed an upgrade to reduce infiltration of air. Dexter handled the heating maintenance on all 3 systems at this home in the 27607 area. He noted that the 2nd floor unit needs blower wheel cleaning and UV protection to remove the growth, and that all systems need ductwork seal and UV added to the units.

Third Floor Running Warmer Than Second in Raleigh

Raleigh · August 2026 · Mario & Dexter · From our service records

Third Floor Running Warmer Than Second in Raleigh

What the customer reported

A Raleigh homeowner in the 27609 area reported that the third floor was running warmer than the second, since it is controlled by the second-floor thermostat, and that the storage closet was getting hot.

What we found and did

Mario and Dexter observed that the warm third floor and hot storage closet were related to the attic door being open. They re-hung the fallen door and checked the airflow at that location. During the heating maintenance, they checked the operations of the two-zone thermostat and the condition of the filters, inspected the ductwork, refrigeration lines, drain lines, wire connections, and blower wheel cleanliness, checked voltage, blower amps, inducer amps, and the inducer capacitor, cleaned the flame sensor and spark igniter, and adjusted gas pressures to manufacturer specifications. The homeowner approved a recommended blower wheel cleaning, which will be done on a return visit.

Result

After the door was re-hung, the technicians confirmed proper airflow at that location.

Why quality heating tune-up matters in Raleigh

Extreme Summer Heat

Raleigh's hot, humid summers with temperatures often reaching 95°F+ put tremendous stress on HVAC systems. Systems must be properly maintained and sized to handle the extended cooling season from May through September.

Diverse Buildings

The city's diverse neighborhoods from downtown high-rises to suburban homes to historic properties each have unique HVAC needs. Our technicians are experienced with all building types and their specific challenges.

Building Permits

Wake County building codes and city permits have specific requirements for HVAC installations and replacements. We handle all permitting to ensure your system meets local compliance standards.

Urban Heat Island

Urban heat island effects in downtown Raleigh can increase cooling demands by 5-10 degrees compared to surrounding areas. This requires careful system sizing and efficient equipment selection.

FAQ

Heating Tune-up in Raleigh: questions answered

Answered by our licensed technicians serving Raleigh.

What's included in a heating tune-up?

Our heating tune-up includes a 20+ point inspection: cleaning the burners and heat exchanger, checking gas connections for leaks, testing the ignition system, inspecting the flue and venting, lubricating moving parts, checking electrical connections, calibrating the thermostat, replacing the air filter, and testing safety controls. We also measure system efficiency and airflow.

How often should I service my furnace?

Your furnace should be professionally serviced once a year, ideally in fall before the heating season. Annual maintenance helps your equipment last, keeps it running efficiently, and catches small problems before they become expensive repairs. Some manufacturers also require regular maintenance to keep a warranty valid.

Is it too late to schedule a fall tune-up?

It's never too late to service your heating system. While fall is ideal, a winter tune-up still provides benefits: improved efficiency, safer operation, and catching issues before they cause a breakdown on the coldest day. We have availability throughout the season and can often schedule within a few days.
