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…)

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…)

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!

You can’t always control the way that your home was built. When you purchased the home odds are you were looking for the obvious flaws and when those were ruled out, everything seemed to be in order. However, many older homes suffer from problems that lie beneath the surface. The problem is that the older the home is the less air tight it was made. Insulating the walls and attic were not a priority at the time and many of these older homes experience air leaks and drafts that not only disturb comfort but they also cost the homeowners big bucks in energy costs. In the past, the only way to get in and add more insulation was to tear down the walls, fill, and then reseal them. However, with blown-in insulation from Four Seasons, you can add insulation to nearly any crevice in the home without tearing the walls down.
Popular Places to Add Insulation
- Attics: Attics in older homes often have little to no insulation within them. Any insulation that was placed has long since settled and is offering little protection. Have Four Seasons pump in a fresh thick layer of fiberglass and give your home an air tight cap to help keep heat in this winter.
- Crawl Spaces: Many older homes have crawl spaces that lack insulation. A crawl space can be as cold as the chilliest of winter nights and that cold air will seep into your warm home if you do not prevent it from happening. Simply have Four Seasons fill in the spaces with fresh insulation and eliminate this source of heat loss. (more…)

The Federal Tax Rebates may be long gone in 2012, but that doesn’t mean you can’t save on the purchase of a new furnace and air conditioner this winter! Residents of Chicago and Northern Illinois can take advantage of rebates offered by Peoples Gas and Nicor. For a limited time, the local gas companies have partnered with ComEd to offer hundreds of dollars in rebates towards the purchase of select furnace and air conditioning systems. These high efficiency furnaces and air conditioners carry significant rebates of up to $400 per unit. In total, you can get up to $800 in rebates when you purchase a new energy efficient furnace and air conditioner. Even if you choose to only purchase a furnace you can still get rebates of up to $200.
Savings on Top of Savings!
In addition to the savings offered by your natural gas company, there are other savings still available when you get your furnace through Four Seasons Heating and Air Conditioning. We offer our customers Lennox Home Comfort Systems, and Lennox is offering rebates on their furnaces and air conditioners also. That means you can combine your gas company rebates with manufacturer rebates from Lennox for even more savings. As the largest Lennox dealer and leading HVAC company in the Chicagoland area, Four Seasons Heating and Air Conditioning can install your new home comfort system, assist with obtaining rebates and provide exceptional customer service.

Having work performed in the home can create quite a mess. From dirty floors and walls to construction dust on every surface, getting the home back to its original condition after the repairs or remodeling jobs have been completed can prove to be quite a task. Many construction companies will clean up after themselves, but nearly all of them forget about the mess they made of one very crucial system in the home: the HVAC system! All of that dust, debris, and odor will be swept up into the duct work to be transferred through the furnace and then re-circulated throughout the home. Depending on how extensive the work was, you may have a serious air quality and furnace efficiency problem leftover. You are going to need someone to clean up this system, and Four Seasons has got your back.
Cleaning Up After Construction
- Duct Cleaning: Many homeowners have never had the ducts cleaned in the home, so odds are they are not only full of construction debris but also years and years of particle build up. A professional duct cleaning from Four Seasons Heating and Air Conditioning is the only way to restore this part of the system back to peak performance and bring clean air back into your home. Without this service, you could be left breathing in construction dust for years to come.
- Heating and Cooling Cleaning: With all of that debris circulating through the ducts, it will have to pass through the furnace and air conditioner as well. If you aren’t using advanced filtration system to capture these particles before they dirty up the furnace, then you probably have a mess inside your system that could be causing a massive decrease in energy efficiency. Burners and heat exchangers that are coated in a layer or dust and debris cannot transfer heat as effectively and energy efficiency suffers. You will end up paying more to use the furnace every month because the system will need to burn more fuel to keep up. (more…)

In this case, it was the guarantee that we will always be there for our customers when they are in need and that we will make the process of buying a new system for your home as easy as possible.

“On behalf of our family, we wanted to thank Four Seasons for there wonderful service, they were there for us when our old furnace broke in the winter time. They provided us with the best service ever when it came down making the best decision on a brand new furnace as well as helping us with the financing. We sincerely thank you…” (more…)
