Replacement, done right the first time.

All services
How it works

From your call to a new system, in four steps.

Step 1

Call or request an in-home estimate

Reach our team 7 days a week. For no-heat or no-cool emergencies we prioritize your call. For planned replacements we schedule a free in-home estimate, usually within 24-48 hours.

Step 2

On-site load calculation & options

A comfort specialist measures the home, checks ductwork and venting, and walks you through equipment options and honest price ranges - no pressure, no mystery numbers.

Step 3

Professional installation

Licensed, insured installers remove the old system and install the new one to manufacturer spec, with permits pulled where the village requires them.

Step 4

Rebates, registration & follow-up

We register the warranty, hand off the paperwork for ComEd and Nicor rebates and the 25C federal tax credit, and check back to confirm the system is running right.

Frequently asked

Honest answers, no upsell.

How much does a new furnace or AC cost on the North Shore?+

Installed furnace replacements typically run $4,500-$9,000, central AC $5,000-$10,000, and a full furnace-plus-AC system $9,000-$18,000. Boilers (common in older North Shore homes) run $7,000-$15,000, and heat pumps $10,000-$22,000 before rebates and tax credits. Final pricing depends on system size, efficiency, and how your home is configured. Every quote is written and itemized after an in-home estimate.

Should I repair or replace my system?+

As a rule of thumb, if a system is 15+ years old, needs a repair that costs more than about a third of a new unit, or has failed more than once in a season, replacement usually saves money over time. We give an honest recommendation - if a repair makes more sense, we'll say so.

Do you help with ComEd, Nicor, and federal rebates?+

Yes. High-efficiency furnaces, AC, heat pumps, and boilers often qualify for Nicor Gas and ComEd rebates, and heat pumps can qualify for the 25C federal tax credit (up to $2,000). We size and select equipment to hit those thresholds and hand off the documentation you need to claim them.

My furnace died in the middle of winter - can you help fast?+

Yes. We run a 24/7 emergency line for no-heat and no-cool situations. When a system can't be safely or economically revived, we can often provide temporary heat and get a replacement installed quickly.

Do you install boilers for older homes?+

Yes. Many North Shore homes in Winnetka, Wilmette, and Highland Park run hot-water or steam boilers. We replace and modernize boiler systems, including high-efficiency condensing boilers where the home's piping and venting allow.

What areas do you serve?+

We serve the Chicago North Shore and northwest suburbs across Cook and Lake counties, from Wilmette, Winnetka, and Highland Park to Northbrook, Glenview, Arlington Heights, and Des Plaines.

Are you licensed and insured?+

Yes. We carry general liability and workers' comp coverage and can provide a certificate of insurance to any homeowner, property manager, or HOA on request.

How long does a replacement take?+

A straightforward furnace or AC changeout is usually a single day. Full-system, boiler, or ductwork-heavy projects can take one to two days. We give you a realistic timeline in the written estimate.
