Mario
October 2026
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.

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.

August 2026
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.
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.
After the door was re-hung, the technicians confirmed proper airflow at that location.

The crawl space was sealed and the fresh air pipe was not extended to outside. Dexter performed heat maintenance on two systems and replaced the second floor capacitor and contactor.
The system was working properly after the work.
I had a great experience with Element for my HVAC tuneup. They were on time and pleasant and professional. No high pressure sales tactics. I recommend them !

Read articleRaleigh'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.
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.
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 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.

Answered by our licensed technicians serving Raleigh.
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.
Your furnace should be professionally serviced once a year, ideally in fall before the heating season. Annual maintenance extends equipment life by 5-10 years, maintains efficiency (saving 10-15% on heating bills), catches small problems before they become expensive repairs, and keeps your manufacturer warranty valid.
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.
