HVAC in Niles homes
Niles was mostly built out between 1940 and 1989. More than 4 in 5 homes date from those decades, and fewer than 1 in 200 was built after 2010. So in most Niles homes, the furnace and air conditioner in the basement are replacements, while the ductwork is often the original.
The median Niles home was built in 1965, right around the time central air became standard. The Department of Energy notes that most new homes had central air by the late 1960s (Department of Energy history of air conditioning). Some Niles houses came with it, and many had it added later. Either way, when we quote a new system we size it to the house and the ducts as they are today, not to the label on the old unit.

Condos and townhouses in Niles
About 1 in 4 Niles homes is in a building with 20 or more units, and about 1 in 14 is a townhouse. If your unit has its own furnace and air conditioner, we service and replace it the same way we would in a house.
If the outdoor unit sits on the roof or in a shared area, check with your association about access before the visit, and tell us where it is when you book so we plan the right time.
Replacing a furnace or AC in Niles
ENERGY STAR suggests thinking about replacement when an air conditioner is more than 10 years old or a furnace is more than 15 (ENERGY STAR's replacement guide). Frequent repairs, rising bills and rooms that never get comfortable matter more than age alone.
- Sized to the house. We size the new system during a free in-home estimate instead of guessing from square footage.
- 80% or 95% furnace. A 95% furnace needs new PVC venting and a drain. We price both options so you can compare.
- Matched equipment. If the AC is also near the end of its life, a matched furnace and AC usually work better together.
- Payment plans. Monthly payment plans are available through Wisetack. See financing.
We are a Lennox Premier Dealer and install other major brands too.

Niles HVAC FAQ
How much does HVAC repair cost in Niles?
It depends on the part and the time the repair takes. Cleaning a flame sensor is a much smaller job than replacing a blower motor or an AC compressor. We diagnose first and give you a written estimate, so you know the price before any work starts.
Do you service condo furnaces and air conditioners in Niles?
Yes. If your unit has its own furnace and air conditioner, we repair, maintain and replace it like any other home. Tell us where the outdoor unit is when you book.
Should I replace my furnace and AC at the same time?
If the AC is more than about 10 years old, it is worth pricing both. The furnace blower moves the air for the AC too, so a matched pair usually runs better together. If the AC is newer and working well, keep it.
How often should my furnace and AC be serviced?
Once a year for each: the furnace in the fall and the air conditioner in the spring. A heat pump should be serviced twice a year because it runs in both seasons.
Are your technicians certified?
Yes. Our technicians hold EPA Section 608 certification, the federal credential for handling refrigerants.
