Question Answers
What should I do if my furnace won't ignite during a Glenview winter?
A furnace ignition failure is a common and urgent issue in our cold winters. As a family-owned business serving Glenview since 1966, we prioritize these emergency calls. Our NATE-certified technicians are trained to quickly diagnose the problem, whether it's a faulty igniter, flame sensor, or gas valve. We repair all makes and models and can often get your heat restored the same day. For older systems with recurring issues, we can discuss reliable replacement options from trusted brands like Carrier to ensure your home stays warm.
Why is my radiator heating uneven in different rooms?
Uneven radiator heat, often felt as some rooms being too hot while others are cold, is typically caused by an imbalance in the system or trapped air. Our technicians, skilled in servicing systems like Runtal radiators and Weil-McLain boilers, can perform a system balance. This involves adjusting the valves on each radiator to ensure proper hot water flow. We also check for and bleed any air trapped in the lines, a common issue in older Glenview homes. This service restores consistent comfort and can improve your system's energy efficiency.
As a Carrier Factory Authorized Dealer, what does that mean for my HVAC installation?
Being a Carrier Factory Authorized Dealer since 1994 means we are among a select group of contractors nationwide that Carrier has recognized for exceptional business practices and technical expertise. For you, this translates to access to the full range of Carrier equipment, factory-trained installation by our NATE-certified technicians, and the assurance that your system's warranty is fully supported. We handle the entire process from expert load calculation for proper sizing to precision installation, ensuring your new heating or cooling system performs reliably for years.
