PRO-TIPS: Choosing Between Chicago, IL Boiler Installation Companies

Let’s get this out of the way … Not all heating and cooling companies are created equal when it comes to radiant heating systems. While many boiler installation companies in Chicago, IL are capable of hooking up a new system, you may be surprised about the difference in costs, quality, and warranty protection between them.

First, you must decide what type of customer you are. That’s right. Are you the kind of person that chooses cost over quality? If so, no matter what amount of information we provide you with, you are always going to go with the cheapest option. While this may be acceptable to you, it is not the right choice for all of our visitors. That being said let’s break down some tips for choosing boiler installation companies in Chicago, Il & the suburbs.

Alright, first off, EXPERIENCE MATTERS! Do you want a company that installs 5 boilers a year to install your equipment, or would you prefer a company that installs 100 boilers. The answer is that you should only choose boiler installation companies that have a good amount of experience with radiant heating systems. When looking for an estimate, ask how many boilers they install in a typical season. This will give you a pretty good idea of how comfortable they are with installing a new boiler. Also, be sure to ask for references from their customers.

Big Boiler Installation Companies VS Smaller Ones. So you think you are going to get a better deal going with a small HVAC company over a larger one? Maybe get a better deal with a side jobber? Well the truth is, a larger company is probably going to get you the best price. Why? Buying power. These companies have built relationships with parts suppliers and manufactures to work out better pricing. While they may have more overhead than smaller boiler installation companies, they can give deeper discounts. Larger companies offer better warranty protection as well, so go big or go home.

In the end, it is best to do your due diligence and research companies and equipment yourself. The more educated you are, the less likely you are to be taken advantage of.
