Don’t Settle for Less than the Best | Lansing, Lemont, Crestwood

Tuesday, February 7th, 2012

When you are looking for a new heating and cooling system or any HVAC services for that matter, choosing a heating and air conditioning company to rely on can seem like an overwhelming task. Flipping through the phone book alone will show you the vast number of companies out there to choose from, and not all of them are good. You can’t just choose anyone but the task alone will make you want to choose whoever you come across first. This could cost you hundreds if you make the wrong choice. Instead, ask yourself what you are looking for in your HVAC company.

Ask Yourself:

  • Does the Company have Award Winning Customer Service?: Four Seasons Heating and Air Conditioning has received several awards for our customer service ethic. For the second year in a row we recently received the Dave Lennox Award, and for the seventh year in a row we have been awarded a special service award from a leading consumer review website. When you treat your customers with the respect they deserve it is noticed, and you can benefit from this type of service as well when you choose Four Seasons.
  • Is the Company Top Rated with the BBB?: The Better Business Bureau investigates complaints made by consumers about various companies. They also look into potential scams that certain companies may be running. Based on what they find, they hand out report card- like ratings. Four Seasons Heating and Air Conditioning carries the highest rating that the BBB has to offer: an A+. (more…)

Frequently Changing Filters | Forest Park, Flossmoor, Evergreen Park

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

As Americans, we inherently have busy lives full of things to remember on a day to day basis. Maintaining the heating and cooling system may not be a task that needs to be completed every day, but for most, checking the furnace’s filter just once a month is still too much of a task to remember. In order to make sure things continue to work properly, many homeowners will invest in fancy filters that can last for multiple months, so that they don’t have to remember to change the filter every 30 days. However, some of these homeowners are finding that despite the manufacturer’s claims that the filter should last 3 months or longer, the filter still needs changing every 30 days. Before you blame the manufacturer, take a moment to consider that the problem might not be your filter; it might be your HVAC system and the air quality in your home!

Finding the Source of Air Quality Problems

It is recommended that once you replace your filter or upgrade to a new type of filter you check it every 30 days to make sure that it is able to handle to air quality in the home. For some, 30 days comes and the filter that is made to last 3-6 months is still in good conditioner. For others, the filter already needs to be changed. The problem lies within the home’s air quality. You may have animals or other factors that are contributing to the dirty air in the home or you may just have filthy ducts. As the furnace circulates air through them, debris is picked up and caught by the filter. When this debris is excessive, it can waste a filter in 30 days or less. (more…)

Wifi Enabled Programmable Thermostats | Oakwood Hills, Palatine

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012

Four Seasons Heating and Air Conditioning has been installing programmable thermostats in homes across Chicagoland for many years now and the benefits of these thermostats have saved homeowners hundreds of dollars over the years. Now, there is an even easier way to get the most out of a programmable thermostat. Wifi enabled thermostats allow the homeowner added flexibility when it comes to setting the day to day program on the unit. The traditional programmable thermostat required manual setting changes and one forgotten adjustment could add up to extra cost that could have been avoided.

Added Benefits of a Wifi Enabled Programmable Thermostat

If you have a wifi network within the home, you can sync this thermostat with that network and access its settings from anywhere. Smart phones, tablets, and computers are all able to communicate with this device, so you could adjust the temperature from nearly anywhere. Instead of having to stick with one schedule every week, you can switch it up. Life is always changing from day to day, and these thermostats offer a new level of flexibility that simply could not be achieved with the old versions. For more information about these thermostats and to learn how you start saving more today, call Four Seasons!

Mild Winter Adds Up to Savings! | Bridgeview, Bedford Park, Posen

Friday, January 20th, 2012

As January inches closer and closer to its close, many of us are beginning to realize that this winter is not going to be as fierce as expected. We haven’t had to rely on the furnace as much as we have in recent years, and the decreased demand for heat has driven down the price of natural gas. The savings have begun to roll in and now all of this money that was to be allocated for heating and home is sitting around in need of use. Why not put that money to good use and invest it in your home? We cannot hope for these mild winters to continue in the future, but you could energy costs down even in the harshest of winters by making energy efficient improvements with Four Seasons!

Efficiency Improvements from Four Seasons

Any efficiency improvement from insulation to light bulb upgrades would make a difference, but upgrading the furnace and air conditioner will literally transform the way your home consumes energy. The combined energy use of these two systems makes up the majority of the energy use within the home. If these units are inefficient, that could add up to a lot of waste especially during the heavy use seasons. (more…)
