Get matched with top central a/c installers in Oak Park, IL

"Serviceman was very helpful. Did a nice job completing the installation, cleaning up and walking me through how to use the new unit."

"Joe at Besco came out, gave me several options at various price levels. No pressure in the sales and Joe provided good suggestions for addressing the shortcomings of the system being replaced - particularly related to adding additional return air because my existing plenum is undersized. I ended up selecting a variable speed furnace with a two stage heating system. The variable speed furnace is also supposed to improve efficiency and comfort for the a/c in the summer. The system inside the house (summer only) seems to operate significantly quieter than the prior one, and in a relatively small home, that matters. Too early to say on electrical savings with weather being relatively cool this summer and lack of time to compare, but I do like using the variable speed - always on - fan system. The installers did good work. It was not an easy job. The furnace and coil are situated in a tight closet with other appliances and truly insufficient room for all of the equipment, pipes and ducting that must go in there and the condensing unit is basically five stories up internal stairs. The work took a full business day but at the end, everything worked - I had my Nexia Thermostat programmed soon after the installers left. Due to the tight setup, one tube for the humidifier was too short and required a second visit. Because I don't need the humidifier in the summer it didn't bother me. The sales rep, Joe personally fixed it when he returned for a post installation follow up meeting. The products I bought were eligible for rebates from utility companies. The crew at Besco takes care of the rebate process for you, which is a nice touch. I had 3 highly rated companies on Angie's List provide bids for the work. Besco's price was the lowest of the 3 and they did a nice job and installed top quality equipment. Hopefully I don't have to test out the warranties."

"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."

"Tim and his assistant worked rapidly, but carefully, to remove the old furnace, install the new one, test it and then clean up the furnace area in the basement.  In addition they were able to put the furnace-mounted humidifier back in operation.  Not only was Tim and his assistant prompt, courteous and professional, they explained everything clearly and exceeded my expectations by installing a new furnace on a Sunday morning!"

"I did a full HVAC replacement (2 furnaces, 2 AC units) with Shavitz and have nothing but good things to say. First, the quote process with Ken was both informative and honest. The installation team led by Mirek was great. They were efficient, clean and walked me through everything. All piping and ductwork was replaced in the utility closets and at the AC units and all was properly insulated. Their work is clean and clearly shows they know what they are doing. It was a two-day install and Ken made sure to stop by on day 1 to ensure that everything was completed as we discussed. The furnaces are even quieter than expected! It’s too cold to run the AC units and they will need a return visit to get that system activated but so far so good. I would highly recommend this team to anyone."

"I called and they came out the very next day...arrived promptly and presented themselves professionally. Unfortunately, I was unable to utilize their services (air duct cleaning) because I live in a very old home (86 years old) that has a brand new furnace but the duct work is old. The gentlemen looked everything over before beginning their work and discovered that due to the age of the duct work there was asbestos tape used when they were installed, which effectively brought the whole operation to a grinding halt before it even got started! I am so happy they were professionals because they discovered this fact before they ever disturbed anything in the ducts...therefore, leaving well enough alone and bringing no harm to us or themselves. If I could use them in the future I would not hesitate to call them!"

"My installer was great very personable was ready to go to China when he got there. Highly recommend them."

"Estimate was great compared to several others. Was honest and upfront about costs. A/C working like so much better now after their suggestions. Few issues while installing but they were very apologetic and went above and beyond to fix them."

"Our AC Replacement was done correctly and quickly. The Estimator and Installers were great!"
