Goodberlet Heating and Air was started in October of 1982, by Tom and Anna Goodberlet. Armed with a small customer list from Tom's grandfather, who had ran and operated Coy Heating from 1950 to 1979, as well as building on the relationships of their parents, friends and family, Tom and Anna built Goodberlet Heating from the ground up while raising their three children. As the business slowly grew, Tom and Anna invested back into their home-grown community by sponsoring youth sports teams and participating and aiding local organizations. Concentrating on slow steady growth by offering quality service and installation with a strong focus on personal attention to the customer, Goodberlet's mission statement was simple "always do the right thing." In the beginning, Tom states, "We really were just interested in making a living and raising our kids. We really didn't have a business plan to grow. We both were raised in rather simple households, being our parents were children of the depression. 'Hard work' and 'Your word is your bond', these things are what we grew up with, and we still feel the same way." Concentrating on the energy crisis in the mid 80's, Goodberlet started offering some of the highest efficient heating and air conditioning systems available in the area. As their reputation grew, more employees where added and the company continued to expand within their wonderful customer base and the services they provided. Moving to a new location in 1996 to the high traffic corner of West Superior and Kennedy Dr in Bradley, Goodberlet's new visibility allowed for storefront offices, and a service and installation stock area. In 1999, with the business continuing to flourish, Anna came to work full time at the company and began offering their Planned Maintenance Agreements. "Our service dispatch would consist of a post-it note or a sheet of paper with all the calls on it for the day, Anna states, and we would keep track of all of our customers and service calls in a binder. In 2000 we invested in some computer software programs." Goodberlet Heating & Air remained on Kennedy Dr for 8 years capitalizing on the good economy, local new-construction and housing boom, residential replacements and service market. With a growing staff, the company looked for a larger space. Their current location at 255 E Brookmont in Kankakee suites the company well. "Family owned companies offer a very dynamic and interesting workplace, Tom states, "but we all get along, and we have to really find some different things to talk about at night, instead of 'how was your day?', but it has worked for 29 years." As of 2012, there are 6 "official" Goodberlets working at the company; yet the whole team is part of the family. The honest and fair values and traditions are upheld within all who work with and at the company. As the business moves forward; the changing of ideas, customers, products and markets will occur; however, somethings will not change.
"I have had a horrible experience with Goodberlet heating and cooling. They are liars, manipulators, and deceivers and they never stand by what they said they are going to do. I spoke with Rick as well as a C Parish and all they continue to do is lie. Now they make it my responsibility to cover the trenches in my yard even though I had a scheduled appointment for someone to come out and do it because that is what the company told me that they would do and I have been waiting MONTHS! Now Rick has no idea who I spoke with he says that lady doesn’t even work for the company and he does not want to send anyone to put the dirt back in the trench holes that they dug. Even though I was promised that they would. They get your money then they lie they hide give excuses and they blame you for the reason that they won’t come back to fix the problems."

"The company installed a boiler system & radiant heating system for our home and we called for a repair in year two of operation. The owner, who is the only person in the company qualified for more complex jobs, is either overbooked, uninterested in the business, or some combination thereof. We were told that he would be available in two weeks but that no one knows his schedule. So, we couldn't actually schedule service. He ultimately resolved the issue within a month. The following winter was much worse. The system had issues again. From the first time at which we contacted the company, we waited 8 weeks for him to show up and diagnose the issue, and 12 weeks to fix the problem. Further, the issue was a glycol leak that was (1) expensive to resolve and (2) potential evidence of shoddy work in their first set of repairs. The company's technicians are professional and qualified for routine jobs. They are very responsive. However, given the poor management and excessive reliance on one person who seems uninterested in helping, I'd never recommend this company for any work."

"A complete joke of a company. They tried charging me almost 1000 bucks to install two pieces of used lumber using my ladder because they weren't prepared for the job. They were severely underquoted the project to get the bid then changed to a time and materials. I accepted with the intent they would be prepared for the job. They informed they would be there at 8 am showed up late. Everyone was one the phone while "on the clock." There clock started when they started work in the morning. No materials at jobsite the day of. No plans of the repair other than a brief discussion. After I kicked them out of the job . The carpenter at least calls back asking to pick up his things. Meanwhile the estimator trespassed without even calling to take their things (which I would have allowed if they at least called). Has the audacity to take pictures of the work they didn't do and try to charge me for it. A complete joke that further cements their lack of preparedness and communication towards the job"

Spring and fall offer the optimal time for scheduling an installation. Cooler weather means crews can work more efficiently without the summer heat slowing them down, and contractors often have increased availability between peak seasons. You’ll also avoid winter storms that can delay roof work. If you’re targeting a tax credit for the current year, aim to have the system running by December 31 so the credit can be applied.
Most systems recoup their post-tax-credit cost in six to 10 years. Your exact payback window depends on local utility rates, the amount of sunlight your roof receives, and the amount of energy you use. The higher your electric bill, the faster those panels work off their price tag. Add in the 30% federal tax credit and any state incentives, and you’ll start seeing true savings even sooner.
You can count on most panels to produce power for 25 to 30 years, and many monocrystalline models keep going for closer to 40. Thin-film options sit on the shorter end at 20 years. Staying on top of annual cleanings and quick repairs helps every panel reach the high end of its lifespan and protects your investment along the way.
Yes—if your system is properly sized, you can power an entire home with solar energy. A solar power designer will look at your yearly kilowatt-hour use, roof space, local sun hours, and whether you’re adding battery storage. When those pieces line up, the panels can cover all of your day-to-day needs and bank extra energy for nighttime or cloudy days.
