Air conditioning installation Chicago

Air conditioning installation Chicago contractor says hey let get real about the installation of your central air conditioning system. Installations of central air conditioning is not brain surgery however the a/c system needs to be installed correctly for it to give you the performance you purchased.

Around The Town Heating and Cooling is not a big outfit like Four seasons, nor would we want to be.

Around The town Heating and Cooling` s claim to fame is simple, one customer at a time. That may sound ridiculous but we need to have satisfied closer to each individual customer and the job they hired us for and trusted us with.

With the changing of refrigerants from HCFC R-22 to 410 A the supposedly ozone friendly refrigerant blend, the installation procedures have changed. Let me explain a few scenarios for you. You have your furnace in the basement and your basement is fully remodeled and your refrigerant lines run from your furnace to the out door unit called the condenser.

With the changing of refrigerants you suppose to change the copper tubing that carries the refrigerant back and forth to the evaporator coil to the condenser unit. How ever your refrigerant copper lines are buried in the walls or ceiling of your beautifully remodeled  basement or your lines are buried in the walls off your condo and your a/c condenser is on the roof, what ever do we do. The manufactures sells a flush kit that suppose to clean the system free of HCFC r-22 so we can install your 410 a ozone friendly refrigerant. If this 410 a refrigerant is ozone friendly then why can`t we vent it to the atmosphere? I query that Question to the manufactures and there has not been a reasonable answer given.

Consumers shopping heating and air conditioning equipment, do yourselves a favor and give Big Ed and company a try. We promise reasonable rates, courteous service and respectful installation procedures.

We`re at your service day and night, we do the job and do it right!  Don`t call the other guys call big Ed instead.

Remember this if nothing else we are here to provide you with Warm winters and Cool summers.

This Heating air conditioning Chicago job takes us on many journeys through out the days and weeks of air conditioning season and There is no other job I would rather do!!

With  the new change overs from freon r-22 to the new ozone friendly refrigerant 410a the cost of change over has risen greatly, there are many new steps in the change over process especial if your refrigerant piping is inside the walls and you live in a high rise building. The two refrigerants r-22 and 410a cannot be mixed, if either refrigerant even slightly mixes with each other the system becomes contaminated and procedures will have to be redone at your expense, do not try to haggle the price of change over because it will only affect the outcome later. I know this because I see it every day. Home owners be aware that the cross over from r-22 refrigerants and 410a can be costly. Go Green. Thanks Government.

Air conditioning Chicago air conditioning/freon

Air conditioning Chicago air conditioning/freon and Hoop dreams and stifling hot gyms. The other day I was watching my son play summer league baseball At Brother Rice High School. Today I was watching him play summer league basketball. Yes, yesterday sitting on the bleachers frying in the boiling hot sun, and today sitting in a stifling hot sweat box called a gym.

We played our games at St. Ignatius College Prep. When I first laid eyes on the school I thought I arrived at Hogwarts. For you that haven’t read a Harry Potter book or watched one of the Harry Potter movies, Hogwarts is the school Harry attends. I expected to see Harry Potter flying around on his broom.

The school was awesome the heat was not. I was glad to go home to my nice cool air conditioning. Around The Town Heating and Cooling a Chicago air Conditioner Service Repair company can keep you cool in comfort in your home.
Did you know that an Air conditioner is basically a refrigerator without the box. The Air Conditioner system uses the evaporation of a refrigerant, Freon, to provide cooling. The A/C uses chemicals that convert from a gas to a liquid and back again. This chemical is used to transfer heat from the air inside of a home to the outside air. The end result is a cool comfortable environment for the whole family.
