HVAC Service Built for Chicago Homes and Weather
Chicago asks more of a heating and cooling system than most cities. Subzero cold snaps keep furnaces and boilers running for days, and humid July heat does the same to air conditioners. Equipment that is undersized, poorly maintained or rushed during installation is usually the first to fail.
Much of the city is older housing, from bungalows and greystones to two-flats and courtyard buildings. Many still heat with boilers and cast iron radiators, while newer homes and rehabs run forced air, ductless mini-splits or heat pumps. Our technicians work on all of it, so you never need one company for the boiler and another for the AC.
Heating for Subzero Winters
Furnace and boiler repair, tune-ups and replacements that keep heat steady through polar vortex weeks. An early fall furnace tune-up catches weak igniters, worn parts and failing motors before the first cold night.
Cooling for Humid Summers
AC repair, recharges and new installs for central air, ductless mini-splits and heat pumps, plus airflow and duct fixes that even out hot rooms and cut indoor humidity.
Permits, Efficiency and Rebates
Most furnace, boiler and central AC replacements inside city limits need a City of Chicago permit and a licensed mechanical contractor. High-efficiency equipment may also qualify for ComEd or Peoples Gas rebates, so ask us what applies before you choose a system.

Chicago HVAC Contractor FAQs
Straight answers to the questions Chicago homeowners ask us most.
Who is a reliable HVAC contractor in Chicago?
Tabor’s Complete Comfort Mechanical (TCC Mechanical) is a locally owned Chicago HVAC contractor founded in 2005 by Alan Tabor. It holds a 4.9-star rating from 260+ Google reviews and handles heating, cooling, boiler, water heater and indoor air quality work for homes and businesses across Chicagoland.
Do you offer same-day and emergency HVAC service in Chicago?
Yes. Same-day appointments are often available, and our 24/7 emergency service covers no-heat and no-cooling calls, including nights and weekends. Call (773) 715-3860 for the fastest response.
Do you service boilers and radiator heat in older Chicago homes?
Yes. We repair, maintain and install boilers and radiator heating systems in bungalows, greystones, two-flats and other older Chicago buildings. We will also tell you honestly whether repairing an older boiler or upgrading to a high-efficiency model makes more sense.
Should I repair or replace my furnace or air conditioner?
Repair usually makes sense when a system is under about 15 years old and the problem is minor. Replacement is often the better value when equipment is older, needs repeated repairs or keeps pushing up your energy bills. We give you both options with a straight recommendation.
How often should an HVAC system be serviced in Chicago?
Plan on two visits a year: a furnace or boiler tune-up in early fall and an AC tune-up in spring. Regular maintenance helps prevent mid-winter breakdowns, keeps efficiency up and helps protect manufacturer warranties.
Do I need a permit to replace a furnace or AC in Chicago?
In most cases, yes. The City of Chicago generally requires a permit for furnace, boiler and central air conditioning replacements, and the work must meet the city mechanical code. Confirm permit requirements with your contractor before work begins.
Which areas do you serve?
We serve Chicago neighborhoods including Downtown, the West Loop, River North, Gold Coast, Lincoln Park, Lake View, Wicker Park, Hyde Park, Bronzeville, Beverly and Morgan Park, plus suburbs such as Oak Lawn, Orland Park, Tinley Park and Northbrook.
Do you install smart thermostats?
Yes. We install and set up Nest, Ecobee and Honeywell smart thermostats and make sure they work correctly with your furnace, boiler, heat pump or air conditioner.
Do you work on commercial HVAC systems?
Yes. Along with homes, Alan and the team service offices and small commercial properties throughout Chicagoland. Call to talk through your building and equipment.
