Get matched with top air conditioning pros in Carol Stream, IL

"Excellent service from my first call to Hope and then Linda who explained in complete detail what would be required to service my air conditioner and the cost. The servicemen, Branden and Jose, were very professional and went over my HVAC unit completely. The only access to the unit’s condenser coil is from the outside which needed to be cleaned/hosed down. I’m in a 3rd floor condo which requires an extension ladder to reach. Most HVAC service will not go any higher than 25 feet but the Shavitz servicemen had no problem reaching my unit which is approximately 35 feet up. Price for the service was a little higher than I expected but I fully understand after observing the work done. I will highly recommend Shavitz to others in my condo building including our building manager and also anyone who is in need of HVAC service. Great service from my initial call thru service completion."

"Very well. The tech did a thorough job checking both the furnace and air conditioning unit. He answered any questions we had,"

"I was very happy with this company. They did not try to over sell me stuff I did not need. This is a real plus. They were friendly professional and cleaned up after themselves. All my questions about the unit were answered so I understood what they were talkin about. Their pricing is reasonable. They promptly provided info I needed to get the permit from the village for install. There is nothing negative about my experience with them. I believe from my experience with ALL TEMP Heating and Air Conditioning was fair and honest. I will be recommending them to others as they were recommended to me"

"We purchased a new central air conditioner and a 2-stage furnace. In addition, they needed to update the air circulation to and from the system, which was nicely done. Needed a little tweaking, and one of the owners came out to perform the simple task himself."

"Andrew and his assistant were very professional in their approach to cleaning our air ducts and dryer vent. The services they provided were totally consistent with how they describe their approach to the service they provide. This included the very helpful before and after pictures taken which would convince anyone of the need to have this work performed in their homes."

Jim is awesome. We called, he came (on time), and conquered our issues ? for a reasonable price to boot! I called him because our indoor forced air unit was leaking water. In the process of clearing some debris from the drainage tube running from the evaporator coils to the floor drain, we found some mold growing in an old unused humidifier unit connected to the furnace. The unit was not supposed to have water running to it, but my plumbers turned it on anyway and I did not realize (a story for another day). After having kids perpetually sick all winter long, I wanted that unit immediately removed. Despite a busy schedule, Jim obliged, ran out to get sheet metal that he didn't have in the truck and removed the unit / patched up the hole where it was. We had a mold and air quality test done immediately afterwards to make sure nothing made it's way out of the humidifier unit ? all good on that front :)

I'd like to give an update on my situation. My unit began leaking again from the area near the evaporator coils the day after Jim was first here. It leaked much less now, but I had him come back out to investigate the matter further. After checking the flexible drain pipe from the indoor unit, Jim said we should install new indoor evaporator coils and a new outdoor cooling unit. I was a little surprised because our current unit runs very, very well. It is old, but is historically a long-lasting model (as mentioned by every A/C guy that has ever stepped foot in our home). Our neighbors actually have the same unit as us and it runs just as well for them.

So I told Jim that I would have to think about such a large expense. After he left, I turned to Google to triple-check any reasons why my unit might be leaking. After some digging around, I learned that dirty evaporator coils might be the culprit. So I got my screw gun out and removed some of the sheet metal panels in order to access the evaporator coils. Low and behold, I found .25" of black dust and cat hair caked onto the under side of the coils. I cleaned the coils with a soft bristle brush, turned the unit back on, and voila, it stopped leaking! This is presumably because the air flow was much better over the coils now and they stopped freezing and blocking normal drainage. 

I can't help feeling that Jim should have at least mentioned to me that the evaporator coils could be an issue and that cleaning them was an option before wanting to install a new outdoor cooling unit / new indoor evaporator coils that was ball-parked at $3,000.00. No doubt we will probably need a new unit within five years, but the fact is, it still runs very well. 

Jim is a very nice and friendly serviceman. All services that he did perform he performed very well. It's what he didn't do that was disappointing and is my reason for giving him an overall rating of 'C'.

Jim unexpectedly called us last night to check in on our unit. He said that he was thinking about our issue and that it dawned on him that the evaporator coils might need to be cleaned. I'm changing the overall score to a "B".

"He was very good.  I had some company coming from out of town and my air conditioning wasn't working.  He came that day to fix it.  He knows what he is doing.  He gets the job done.  He came within 1/2 hour of my phone call because he was in the area.  He got my air conditioner going right away.  It was really hot that day.  He took care of it right away.  He could have tried to tell me it was the compressor or something, but he didn't.  He was prompt, he did a good job, and he was fair.  He installed a furnace and air conditioner at my mother's house as well.  He did a good job there too.  He was here previously to try and quiet down my air conditioning, but nothing seemed to work too well.  He was really good on the installation, but I thought he was a little high on the repair. "

"Very impressed with their heating and air conditioning maintenance. They explained everything clearly, worked efficiently, and left no mess behind. Our home feels fresher after the air duct cleaning. Definitely a trustworthy team you can rely on."

"We had a great experience with Four Seasons Heating & Air Conditioning during our recent replacement of our furnace and AC unit. They were very professional and completed the job on time and answered all of my questions. Would recommend them for our Heating, Air Conditioning, Plumbing and Electrical needs."

"I replaced the air filter and water filter myself and save more than $90. I was forced to renew the maintenance contract.."
