    We hired Heat Cool for maintenance at my family member's condo in Chicago. They arrived quickly, offered fair prices, and got the job done fast. Extremely satisfied with their service - I'd definitely call them again. Thanks for doing a top-notch job.

    We've been with HeatCool for years and genuinely enjoy working with John Freson's team. Their commitment to our needs and budget, combined with excellent installation and service, solidifies their 5-star rating for us. As a local, family-owned company, they offer a personal touch. Joining their annual Club Service has proven to be the best investment we've made - it's a wise decision for loyal customers like us.

    We recently replaced our blowers with new units. The technician, along with another staff member, got the job done quickly and professionally. Everything seems to be running smoothly now, so far.

    HeatCool operates a small, well-informed outfit that prioritizes quality over profit maximization. When we hired Sam and his assistant Omar for an HVAC installation, they delivered exceptional results. Both were knowledgeable, professional, and accommodating, especially in the challenging space they worked with.

    Their experience - decades of industry expertise from John, the boss - shines through in their work. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend HeatCool to anyone. Unlike larger companies like ABC that might sacrifice quality for a low upfront price, HeatCool stands by its work and maintains reasonable pricing. Don't settle for subpar maintenance with ABC; instead, choose HeatCool for genuine expertise and reliable service.

    Sam is a pro. Shows up right on schedule and delivers top-notch service. I've had him handle all my HVAC needs - both residential and commercial - and can confidently say you're in good hands with HeatCool.

    Heat Cool truly exceeded expectations from start to finish. Their professionalism, competence, and efficiency set a high standard. The replacement of our air conditioning equipment was done flawlessly, with impressive attention to detail in the finishing touches - drywall and painting included. Our apartment looks stunning now, thanks to their expertise and courteous service.

    The Heat Cool team exceeded expectations. Due to another tenant's carelessness, I needed professional help with repairing the condo's damaged AC unit. The repair required specialized labor and expertise. Samir, Josef, Larry, and the owner worked together calmly to install and fix the issue over three days. Their expertise is top-notch - I'm grateful for their service. After four weeks without air conditioning in my luxury high-rise, it's finally back up and running.

    I booked an appointment for two air conditioners to be replaced. The person on the phone was friendly and assisted me with selecting the right units for my space. When the installation process began, I decided to add two more units, ensuring all ACs in my apartment were new. Although these additional units were the same size as one of the newly installed ones, they were more expensive - it turned out they were newer models.

    However, the unit installed on the first day was an older model that had likely been sitting in storage for a while. It doesn't cool the room effectively. I contacted the company, and they sent someone to investigate, who informed me that there's nothing they can do with this issue, citing manufacturer support instead. Despite paying for a brand new unit, mine still doesn't function as it should.

    This experience has left me with mixed feelings - Heat Cool seems great if everything goes smoothly, but be cautious if you encounter problems. Buyer beware - the company might sell older equipment that doesn't work properly and then shifts the blame to the manufacturer.

    We've relied on HeatCool for HVAC needs for nearly 25 years, starting with central air in 2001. The upgrade to our new furnace and AC in 2019 was seamless thanks to their expertise. They've consistently demonstrated reliability and exceptional customer service - a huge thank you to Theresa! Sam is an outstanding technician, possessing great knowledge, consideration, and work ethic. We're extremely satisfied with their performance, deserving of the highest rating.

    Five stars for their technician, who consistently delivered top-notch service. Unfortunately, the sales team fell short in comparison.

    The technician's work was exceptional - thorough, professional, and focused on getting the job done right. The quality of their work instilled confidence in me regarding the service provided.

    In stark contrast, the salesman struggled to provide clarity on the diagnosis. He pushed a hard sell for full replacement without engaging in meaningful discussion or addressing my concerns. Despite multiple attempts to have a constructive conversation, he repeatedly shut down any opportunity for exchange.

    I had planned to share written confirmation from his colleague that contradicted his sales pitch. However, he chose to ignore this information and instead continued to push the sale with little regard for my questions or concerns.

    The initial quote was also significantly higher than competitors', which only became apparent after I brought it up. The salesman's response felt more like pressure than professionalism.

    It's a shame that their approach cost them the sale, as they had a solid technician in place.

    Sam spent an entire day at our place installing a new AC system, which was a huge job given the sweltering heat. Despite it being a scorching day, he showed no signs of fatigue and got the job done efficiently. The result? My place was cool by the end of it all. Kudos to his hardworking helper who put in a full day's work - they both deserve recognition for their efforts.

    Sam provided top-notch customer service, clearly explaining his work and reasoning. He's familiar with specific tools, such as the pipe valve with a basket, and did an excellent job flushing it out. His attention to detail is impressive, as evidenced by draining the bottom of the hot water tank and checking for leaky valves. I found him knowledgeable and competent, which put my mind at ease.

    Sameer Shahab did an outstanding job servicing my HVAC system - thorough explanation, great attitude, and very reasonable pricing. Highly recommended!

    Sameer was a top-notch technician who gave me plenty of notice before arriving, showed up right on time. He thoroughly evaluated my AC system and provided sound guidance on maintaining it. His friendly demeanor made an especially nice impression - warm and kind, he genuinely cared about his customers. I wholeheartedly endorse his services.

    I've repeatedly declined their offers for reviews, yet they keep trying. I'll give one because they won't take no for an answer. Heat Cool visited our three-unit property last season to fix a steam boiler issue. We had a faulty flame sensor causing a shutdown problem. The technician was friendly, but he refused to replace the sensor, just cleaned and purged the system instead. Given his approach, I'm still expecting the issue to recur this upcoming season. It's been tough finding a reliable steam boiler maintenance service that knows what they're doing. Unfortunately, I won't be using Heat Cool again.

    We needed a smart thermostat for our apartment that could be controlled remotely. Unfortunately, the Nest unit wouldn't work due to the building's wiring setup. After researching, HeatCool suggested an alternative that fit our needs and offered flexible scheduling options. Their technician, Sam, did a great job setting up the system quickly and ensuring it worked flawlessly. The whole experience was excellent, and I highly recommend HeatCool for their top-notch service.
