As winter approaches and the weather changes, we become more concerned with our furnaces, and we stop thinking about our air conditioning units until summer returns. One group of people that won’t forget about your air conditioner is thieves! They know that the copper in your air conditioning unit is worth money and realize that winter is the perfect time to strike since people aren’t using and are therefore not thinking about their air conditioner. Countless homeowners will call in at the beginning of the cooling season with complaints about their air conditioner only to find that the system or the copper within the system was stolen when they have one of our servicemen investigate the issue. This doesn’t have the situation in your home, but you have to take certain steps to protect your system from the hands of thieves.
A Four Seasons Security Cage
At Four Seasons we recommend you protect your investment this winter with a Four Seasons Security cage! Our cages are made of iron and painted with high polish, black gloss paint so it won’t rust. We offer the most durable and sturdy cages on the market, so when thieves drive by, they won’t even think to mess with it. Give us a call today and we’ll provide you with a free quote. For all the right reasons, call Four Seasons!

We just had our first warm day of spring, and in some parts of Chicagoland the temperature reached 82 degrees! Where you tempted to use your air conditioner? Maybe it’s just me, but the first warm days of spring make me what to open up all of the windows and air out the staleness of winter. Enjoy the mild weather while it lasts, and don’t waste your money starting up the air conditioner too early. You will have plenty of hot Chicago days when your air conditioner will be a life saver. Let’s face it, during the heat of the summer the weather demands that we use our air conditioners, and though they can make our homes very comfortable, nothing beats the feeling of a cool breeze off of the lake.

During the winter season, many Four Seasons customers took advantage of the exceptional deals that we offered on the purchase of a new air conditioning system. Whether you had the unit installed on its own or with a new furnace, the system is not yet ready to operate this summer. The snow and blistering cold of winter prevented our servicemen from properly filling and calibrating the refrigerant in your new system. Therefore you need to have us back out for an air conditioner start up as soon as possible!
Start-Up Tips!
This spring, Four Seasons has already begun scheduling in their customers for start-ups and tune-ups, and we figured that we would offer a few tips to keep in mind when scheduling your appointment:
- Temperature Matters: Scheduling your appointment early in the spring season may have its benefits, but it also comes with the possibility of weather complications. If the temperature is below 60 degrees, our servicemen will not be able to get accurate readings on your air conditioning system. If we were to perform the service despite this fact, your comfort and energy efficiency would be seriously compromised once summer actually arrived. So, though we will do everything in our power to schedule your appointment on a fair weather day, there are still changes that can’t be predicted. (more…)

As with most problems in life, you can only put them off for so long before you finally have to do something to solve the issue, and problems with your air conditioning system are no different. This spring, many homeowners across the Chicagoland area are realizing that their air conditioner is in no shape to begin another hot summer season. Many put off repairs or replacement all winter long, but as we enter the thick of spring, many are resolving to finally take care of their air conditioning problems once and for all, and there really could not be a better time to do so! From now through April 15th, Four Seasons is running our annual Spring Air Conditioning Sale! During these few weeks, you can save thousands on top of the line, energy efficient Lennox central air conditioning systems.
Benefits Beyond Belief
During this sale, Four Seasons is able to offer our customers other special benefits. Many of these are standard guarantees that come with every Four Seasons system, but we also threw in a few add-ons that we simply will not have once the real summer heat arrives. These guarantees include:
- 2 Year 100% Satisfaction Guarantee
- Guaranteed SAME DAY Installation
- 24 Hour Service Guarantee (more…)

One of the more recent additions that Four Seasons has made to our long list of services is professional home energy assessments. With all of the craze surrounding the “go green” movement, we wanted to offer our customers an easier way to choose exactly which energy efficient improvements they should make in their homes, and spring is the best time to have this service performed. With the summer season ahead, every penny that we can help you pinch will matter, and saving money on your energy bills is defiantly an easy place to get started.
Perfect Weather for an Energy Assessment!
The main reason why spring is the best time to have this service performed is because of the weather. It is warm enough to run the air conditioner to check for efficiency and yet it isn’t so hot that running the furnace would be unbearable. In fact, running the air conditioner during the cold of winter could cause damage to the unit in minuets, but neglecting to check the a/c for its level of efficiency leaves a major appliance out of the energy assessment equation.

The gloom and doom of winter has left many Chicagoans in a funk. The dreary weather and bitter cold temperatures make it extra hard to drag yourself through life’s many stresses, but luckily, spring has arrived and with it will come a plethora of sun filled days. The warmth of this season will melt into a hot and sticky summer, and the air conditioner will be in full operation nearly 24 hours a day. There are many times when Four Seasons will visit a customer’s home and find a burnt out unit very early in the season. The problem is usually due to running the air conditioner before the weather truly calls for cooling. What many homeowners don’t know is that there are certain temperatures that air conditioner should not run at.
Compressor Safety Vs Your Comfort
Although the weather outside may only be in the fifties, many homeowners find that the sun does a very nice job of keeping the inside of their home much warmer than the outdoors. Passive heating works even better in the spring than it does in the winter, but the only problem is, it may get to warm for comfort. The extra heat often leads many homeowners to turn on the air conditioner prematurely. As a result, the compressor may suffer damage and lead to an unwanted breakdown. (more…)

The weather outside may not be comfortable enough to abandon outwear just yet, but the weather is defiantly improving and relieving some of the winter blues that have set in over the past icy season. Late winter in the Chicagoland area is characterized by great fluctuations between cool and warm temperatures. The weather is generally mild and we all wait anxiously for the summer sun! While we wait, why not save? Late winter is the perfect time to turn back your thermostat and save a few bucks before the air conditioning season hits.
Small Change= Big Saving!
You may not believe it, but when it comes to the temperature in your home, every degree counts. A 2 degree change can save you 10% on your energy bills, and the more you turn back the thermostat the better. Right now, everyone is still relying on the furnace to keep their homes at a comfortable temperature. However, many homeowners probably still have the thermostat set at a high temperature. During the thick of winter, those high temperatures were needed to keep the home warm. (more…)

The summer heat may seem like it is still months away, but like the old saying goes, “The early bird gets the worm.” In this case, the worm is a functional air conditioner on the first hot day of the upcoming summer season. Once the temperature is high enough, those that are on top of their home maintenance can call Four Seasons and have their air conditioner cleaned and checked. These are the homeowners that will enjoy easy scheduling, fast service, and of course a comfortable home when the heat finally does arrive. Those that wait may find themselves with a hot and sticky home and the need for emergency service from Four Season. We are always here for you no matter what issue you may have with your heating and cooling, but wouldn’t you want to prevent problems rather than wait for them to happen? (more…)
