Chicago Furnace/Chicago HVAC

Chicago Furnace , Big Ed at Around The Town Heating and Cooling a Chicago air conditioning repair service and air conditioning installation contractor; says This is the best time to buy a new High Efficiency air conditioning system.  Why? Because at the end of the summer season is when you can get the best deals on air conditioner systems; you can still purchase a new air conditioning system at this year’s prices.

With the cost of living going up ever year, and the labor prices increase, so will the cost of HVAC equipment.  High efficiency Furnace and a/c equipment prices seem to always be on the rise (the rich get Richer), but you can still purchase A/C systems at this year’s price. It makes a lot of sense and if your air conditioner has been giving you problems and you have reoccurring repairs.  It may be time to purchase a new system.

Big Ed says Around The Town has many models to choose from on High efficiency furnaces and boilers as well as central air conditioning systems.  Let our HVAC service technicians (Not salesmen) help you find a new A/C unit to fit your needs and stay within your budget. When purchasing new hvac equipment look at the strength of the warranty, make sure the manufactures are giving the warranties not just the promise from the heating and air contractor, hvac contractors come and go and so do your warranties unless you have a manufactures guarantee behind the equipment you purchase.

Big Ed and crew use no salesmen to push you into a sale, we have no high pressure sales tactics and will never have, a decent caring hvac contractor should be able to be flexible enough to sell a product to the consumer and match their budget so the customer can get a fair shake when needed.

Winter is coming, is your  furnace and boiler ready for it? This should be on your mind for safe and efficient operation. Call Big Ed and Crew Today.. South suburbs 708-388-2247 Chicago 312-243-9896.

Getting your furnace cleaned and checked before the bitter cold weather is here is important. Preventative maintenance for your home’s furnace helps ensures your system stays strong all winter. A well maintained furnace can improve your furnace efficiency and can save you money on your energy bills.

Our HVAC technician when performing a furnace tune up will adjust and clean the blower motor and  components. By removing the excess dirt buildup this will insure proper airflow.  proper air flow  increases heat capacity and furnace  reliability. Check and adjust air flow and fan control for accurate temperature.  This is called delta t or temperate differents.  (Furnace Repair)  By doing this the fan will come on and off at the predetermined temperature, making the room heat more accurate. Check and replace standard air filters. A clogged filter can reduce airflow and cause a system to cease operation.
During a furnace clean and check.  Lubricate moving parts. Poor lubrication can cause motor drag requiring more use of electricity. Checking the heat exchangers. This can locate cracks and separations. These cracks and separations can result in dangerous carbon monoxide leakage. Checking the high limit and other safety controls. This is the main control in the furnace to prevent it from overheating.

The HVAC technician will also check for flue obstructions. Most furnaces today have safties for this as well. He will tighten all electrical connections and check belts for cracks and wear.

The burner operation should be checked and cleaned is necessary, and the thermocouple should be checked to see if it needs to be replaced. Also your gas line should be checked for leaks from the furnace shut off valves to the burners.
Your furnace and heating system is mechanical just like a car, and needs regular maintenance to continue run properly. Call us today to schedule an appointment for your furnace tune-up.  A little furnace maintenance prevention goes a long way.
