Consumer Comments for Discount Heating & Cooling

Consumer from Buffalo Grove, IL
Feb 25, 2025

Air conditioner installed seemed to be a factory second as it had dented coils, peeling paint and was manufactured more than a year prior. Reluctant warranty service. At best, average prices. Unfriendly and unpleasant owners that do not stand behind their products or installation.

Consumer from ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, IL

We first used Discount Heating and Cooling when we needed an emergency furnace replacement. Their pricing and availability made them an easy choice at the time. We have since used them for our annual heating and AC cleanings and tune-ups. Everything continues to work well, and they let us know if there is anything that needs to be addressed. Very happy with the service and pricing.

Choosing New HVAC Equipment and Getting It Installed Properly

How well a new HVAC system performs, and how much it costs, depends heavily on its design and the quality of installation. It’s important to make the right decisions—and there are many to make. You also must make sure to get a fair contract.

HVAC Equipment Features to Consider

If you are installing new equipment, in addition to making choices about energy efficiency, you will need to decide whether to pay extra for various features. Here is a summary of the types of add-ons.

Are Heat Pumps the Future of HVAC?

Improved technology, generous tax credits and rebates, and lower utility bills might have us reconsider how to heat and cool our homes.

Maintaining Your HVAC Equipment

The most important maintenance task for HVAC systems is something you can do yourself—replacing the air filter. Check your filter monthly. When a filter has a matting of dirt—i.e., it’s difficult to see through when you hold it up to a light—it’s time to replace it.

HVAC Maintenance Contracts Are Usually Bad Buys

Rather than paying for individual maintenance visits and repair jobs, you might consider getting a service contract for air-conditioning and/or heating equipment. Many companies try to persuade customers to enter into such contracts.
