I've got a Unico AC unit and everywhere I called told me they couldn't work on it or get parts for it. Then I called Around The Town. Ed asked me clear and specific questions about my unit, quickly diagnosed the problem over the phone, and showed up with the right part in hand. Within an hour, he had everything up and running for a very fair price. A+ service, in the middle of a heatwave no less.

There aren't enough good things to say about this company. They responded quickly to my furnace problem mid-winter in Chicago. I would certainly use them again in the future. Many thanks! Service: Heating system maintenance

Our heating unit was making a high pitch noise and the good thing was that it wasn't cold out in case it went out. Got on the phone and scheduled an appointment, which Ed told me that I might need a tune up on my furnace over the phone. Well Ed came over and took care of our problem for us and just in time as the weather was going to be dropping in a couple days. Furnace has been working very smooth, noise went away after the tune up and much needed cleaning. It was great knowing I was supporting a veteran owned business.

The quality of work and the care for a job well done set's this company apart from the competition. Straight forward explanations and the assurance that the issue will be fixed is something that you can count on when Around The Town arrives to your house or business. Attention to detail and the customer is something that these larger companies can easily overlook.

The job at hand is thoroughly handled and the customer is what matter's when this company is "Around The Town"! Being a former employee of multiple companies in the area I can easily say that I stand by this one and their work.

Absolutely the best service I have ever received getting our heat back up and running and being a new business this was extremely crucial to us. I called in and he was here in 20 minutes after I had already tried 4 other places who could not get to me tell the next day. No matter what you heating or AC needs are this is the place you need to call. Fast, friendly and great service!

Ed is a classic Chicago tradesmen in a sense that you may find his personality a little rough but when you peel back the layers he is exactly who I want in my house working to help me get the right solution for a fair price. High on integrity and a genuine person. Salvatore, his son backs him up and is great with customers. I recommend calling these guys when you need HVAC experts.

I've worked with Ed from Around the Town Heating and Cooling for about 6 years now. I unfortunately own a rental property in Park Forest, IL that seems to have needed every appliance or major operating system replaced in the last 10 years. In any case, Ed is my "furnace guy." I can't remember how I found Ed originally, probably yelp, but man did I find a jackpot.

Let me start out by saying that I leave about 2,000 miles away from my property and most of my interaction with my elderly tenants is of the "this is broken" nature. Routinely they will call saying the furnace has gone out or the stove doesn't work and what can I do but call a repair man. Ed is my guy for anything heating or air conditioning. About 6 years ago he actually did have to replace my furnace, but since has come back around twice a year to inspect and do minor "repairs" on said furnace.

They're not usually repairs folks, usually the batteries are dead in the thermostat or they've turned the electrical switch off. The great thing about Ed is that he always answers his phone, knows exactly who I am, knows my tenants and their idiosyncrasies, and works around us with ease. For example today, I called him late into the evening because the "furnace was broken." Ed said he would be out in about an hour and a half because he didn't want to leave my elderly tenants without heat.

When he was on the property found that the switch to the furnace had just been turned off. He flipped it back on, everything worked perfectly, and did the extra duty of taping it so that the tenant wouldn't accidentally turn it off again. He charged me a VERY reasonable fee for driving 45 min each way and making a call very late at night. He always does. Great work, no BS, love my "furnace man Ed."

My wife and I have been using Around The Town for years now. Ed has always been fair honest and extremely prompt when we have needed his service. It's hard to trust people these days but Ed has always come through and has earned our utmost respect and trust. Fair pricing and professional service. Thanks Ed. You once again saved us from a cold night!

I thought we were going to get gauged for an emergency replacement of our water heater on this sub-zero Sunday. To our pleasant surprise Ed responded promptly with a reasonable price and the qualified service to help us rest easy. Bath, launder and wash.

A Great Heating & Cooling Service that is honest and very good. I had a big problem. My large hot water tank which is all solid state stopped heating the water. I called many contractors and had a different story from each one of them. I called Whirpool, the manufacturer and the gave me the name of a contractor in Chicago. The also told ne that all parts to my heater were covered by Whirpool for 12 years and that I would not get charged for the parts.

I called the recommended contractor and they gave me a crzy price when I asked. So I had heard of Around the Town whom I had used previously for an air conditioning problem. they came the next day. The correct parts were ordered and in 2 days -- had to get the parts -- the hot water heater was as good as new and the price was very good. It is hard to find an honest Heating and Cooling guy but I highly recommend Ed Pavlik--a great guy and hones as the day is long.

I was in need of a new AC unit. I called Ed, and he came out and explained all of my options, and described which unit was best suited for my situation. He did not try to sell me the most expensive unit. He explained why the unit he recommended was the best for my house.

Ed and his crew installed the new AC unit in about a half day. They were on time, and very professional with all of their work.

Everything was clean when they were done. After several weekends of intense heat, the AC unit they installed has worked perfect. Ed followed up a couple of days after the install to make sure everything was working. I highly recommend "Around the Town" for any type of heating/AC needs.

Ed put in a furnace for my mother and father on Friday September 23, 2011 and I am keeping all of their information! I will be buying a house soon and I know who will handle all of my heating and cooling needs! Around the Town gives efficient service, great recommendations and great prices! The crew came and worked morning til afternoon until everything was completed. They didn't leave a mess, like other companies have a tendency to do. Thanks Ed!

Ed installed a high velocity system in my 1949 home. It was a difficult job and we didn't want large soffits. Works fantastic and he was friendly and fast. We had some questions a few weeks after the install and we had no problems contacting Ed and he helped out out again at no cost. Great experience!
