Installing a snow melt system begins with contacting Polar for a free in-home estimate.

Each home offers its own set of unique challenges and factors such as driveway or walkway length and topography will be taken into consideration and included in the estimate.

    With Indian Summer arriving with a bang, our unit began to function less efficiently and was blowing air that wasn't as cool as before. We immediately called Polar Heating & Air (Chicago location) and left a detailed message regarding our problem. Our call was returned quickly and an agent gave us the option to have our situation diagnosed immediately. An hour later, Jerry (HVAC Technician) arrived at our home. He immediately went into action, diagnosed the problem and addressed it successfully! And did this all with uber professionalism and a wonderful smile in this dreaded humidity! That definitely counts for a lot! 😄 The price we were quoted was very reasonable and my dad received a senior discount as well! That was clutch! 💯 Need an HVAC issue addressed speedily with care and attention to detail? Check out Polar Heating & Air! Thanks again Jerry! ☺️

    I have used this company since i lived in Chicago over 25 yrs and they are very very courteous and respect my time by calling before coming out and in the time frame they give you. They're work and products have never failed me and if the service visit is minor, they dont try to squeeze extra money out of you to fix anything. Very honest.

    Jerry is one of the best technicians at Polar. Very timely, experienced, friendly, and knowledgeable. Jerry took the time to answer my questions and show me were the concerns were with my furnace. He gave insightful advice as to the make/model and condition of my furnace. Upfront pricing with suitable discounts. With Jerry, Polar HVAC is much better than the nearest competitor.

    My family and I contact Polar for all of our heating and A/C needs. Most recently I contacted them when my furnace suddenly stopped working. They responded quickly and sent out a tech (Joe), who was very knowledgeable, personable, and professional. Polar has never disappointed. I highly recommend them for their services and reasonable pricing. I cannot say enough about this company!

    Very customer friendly and over and beyond in terms of explaining my AC failure and able to give clearly what options were available without ANY sales pressure. I'd rec Joe B. for complicated cases when you might need to buy so you can make well informed decisions.
