"After Freedom did my tune up for the furnace on the 1st floor it strangely no longer blew warm air; I decided to replace it at that point because it was no longer under warranty. I decided to go with a different well-known Chicago Furnace/AC installer that I had dealt with before. It was later discovered by the furnace installer that the thermostat merely needed replacing - so an unnecessary furnace replacement was just done just to prevent future expense of furnace breakdowns. Last summer I had new A/C units installed on the 2nd and 3rd floors. My 2nd floor tenant just recently complained that there was water leaking through the ceiling of their furnace closet. I remembered that I saw the Freedom tech had disconnected the A/C PVC drain pipe for some reason while he was doing the furnace tune up for the 3rd floor but I assumed he would put it back together and re-caulk it. Since it has been hot my tenants have been running their A/C (beginning of June) which creates more condensation that drains into the PVC pipe then the kitchen drain. The drains were both rodded after the new A/C was installed so that was definitely not the issue. The ceiling above the 2nd floor furnace (and under the 3rd floor furnace) is now ruined - the plaster fell down and the joists got wet from the leak that was not immediately unnoticed because A/C units have just been turned since the beginning of June. Upon inspecting the PVC drain pipe, I discovered all of the caulk had been cut from around the pipe where it connects to the galvanized drain and not replaced. After some silicone application by myself and waiting for it to cure, the leak has stopped. I wonder what the reason would be to disconnect the A/C drain pipe if the furnace is being serviced? When the new A/C units were installed for 2nd/3rd floors and the units ran the entire summer, nobody had complained about any leaks so I do not believe that is when the problem first started. So now I have to deal with a damaged ceiling that a furnace is sitting on top of (there is a concrete block under the 3rd floor furnace) due to contractor error. I really don't appreciate my property being damaged by a careless contractor nor the headaches that I now have to deal with to fix this problem. The old saying goes, "sometimes you get what you pay for" - I am learning that the cheapest deal is not always the best one out there."

"The three installers, Mirek, Mike, and Jonathan arrived promptly for the all-day job. All three were very professional. They came with their own dollies to bring the equipment to my unit, provided drop cloths to protect the flooring in my unit and in the building corridors, and answered questions about the equipment to my satisfaction. Will, the Shavitz Heating and AC Specialist who advised me on the equipment options, also stopped by to check on the installation. When the work was completed, the installers went through a checklist to make sure the installation was completed properly and the fan coil was operating correctly. They also showed me how to replace the filter and how to program the thermostat. Will also contacted me to see if I was satisfied and offered to stop by and program the thermostat."

"Home Comfort Systems did a fantastic job with the replacement of my furnace (and my A/C five years ago). Steve is a highly reputable person and explains things easily for people not in the Heating & A/C industry. He is very straight-forward with his quote and doesn't try to pressure or scare you into purchasing something you do not need. Their 10-year labor warranty is also very impressive, and they stand behind their work. A couple of weeks prior, they were able to take a look at my old furnace right away despite having tons of calls due to the first cold snap of the year. The furnace install only took about three hours and was smooth as can be. The installer took great care in making sure floors were protected when hauling equipment in and out of the house. He also made sure to repair some ductwork that extended off the furnace. My suggestion is to make sure you call Home Comfort Systems if you need service or replacement of your furnace and/or air conditioning."

"These guys are great! We have an yearly maintenance contract with them for our AC and hot water boiler. They are professional and do great work! They are also very responsive as issues arise. Our older hot water radiator system went down on a Saturday night. I called Maggie and and Bob (one of the owners) was out Sunday morning and repaired our unit. They also installed a new hot water heater recently. Highly recommended!"

"Everything went well. Mike D. called me to let me know he was on his way. He and Kevin got here on time. They replaced my four RO filters. They were neat and put a tarp down to protect my floor. As always, they were professional."

"I had a great experience with their HVAC services. They repaired my electrical baseboard heater quickly and made sure everything was working perfectly before leaving. The team was professional, punctual, and very knowledgeable. They also installed our new central A/C system smoothly with no issues at all. Communication was clear throughout the process, and the pricing was fair. Highly satisfied with the quality of work and customer service. I would definitely recommend them for any heating or cooling needs."

"Everything went great from the estimate with Ed to the installation with Wesley and Matt. They were friendly and knowledgeable. It was not an easy installation. I was very pleased with the result. They had respected my property and even called in a roofer to properly vent the system through the roof. They even installed my smart thermostat. I would use them again. Previously, there was electric heat on the second floor. Other companies balked at giving me a solution for gas but they had no problem running the line upstairs. Goodby high electric bills!"

"<p>Thanks to JML, our holidays were warm and cozy for the first time in years.</p> <p>JML were responsive, timely and diligent, working long and uncomplainingly in our 3D (dank, dirty and dismal) basement.  They were consistently professional and congenial, and they were even nice to our big, hairy dog.</p> <p>JML, after completion of the job, returned to our home to patiently babysit me through a false alarm.  They returned once again to perform some additional work that could have been considered outside the scope of the written contract.  On neither occasion did JML levy an additional charge.<br /> <br /></p> <p>JML were honorable, which is something I don't get to say much anymore.  Their primary commitment was to customer satisfaction, as opposed to being primarily committed to wresting every possible dollar out of their helpless customer.  (If it's late November in Chicago and you have no heat, you're certainly at the mercy of the heating guys.)</p> <p>JML were the best contractors we've ever had and, since our house is over a hundred years old, you can bet that we've had quite a few.</p> <p>Because I recently noticed that my original review was somehow lost in transmission and did not post, I have the opportunity to say that our heating system continues to hum along very nicely, and that it worked perfectly throughout last week's "polar outbreak."  The house was cost-savingly cool in the lesser and/or rarely used areas, and delightfully warm in the others.</p> <p>If I worked at it I still couldn't come up with a single complaint against JML.</p> <p><br /></p> <p><br /></p> <p><br /></p> <p><br /></p>  tir <br />"

FAQs for radiant floor heating system installation projects in Arlington Heights, IL

In new construction, installing radiant floor heating costs between $19,000 and $48,000. The price depends on factors such as the heating system type, flooring material, and square footage. Since there's no existing flooring or wall to work around, the installation is more straightforward, reducing labor costs and improving project efficiency.

Radiant floor heating warms rooms by circulating heated water beneath the flooring, while baseboard heating supplies warmth through units installed along the lower wall portions. Radiant flooring systems deliver even and consistent heat, whereas baseboard units generate gradients of warmth. Radiant floor heating also reduces heat loss, making your home more energy efficient.

Tile and stone are the best choices for radiant heating because they transfer heat rapidly and efficiently. These materials warm the room quickly, ensuring optimal comfort. While wood, laminate, vinyl, carpet, and rubber are acceptable alternatives, they conduct heat slower and require extra energy to achieve the same temperature levels.

Radiant floor heating heats an entire house only when every room and area is outfitted with the system. Installing radiant heating across all of your living spaces ensures complete and consistent warmth, eliminating cold spots while enhancing energy efficiency. Installing a whole-home system provides even warmth, eliminating reliance on forced-air systems.

In-floor heating systems deliver long-lasting performance, with tubing and coils lasting 20 to 35 years and boilers operating for 15 to 20 years. Routine maintenance and prompt repairs ensure your heating system reaches its maximum lifespan. A properly installed system provides reliable warmth over decades, making it a durable long-term investment in home comfort.

Radiant floor heating prevents mold growth by actively reducing moisture beneath the flooring. It maintains warm surfaces that dry excess water and lower condensation, which minimizes the conditions needed for mold to thrive. This efficient control of humidity results in a healthier environment indoors, ensuring that moisture issues are kept well below harmful levels.
