Welcome to Five Star HVAC Services

Preparing for your first appointment with Five Star HVAC Services in Chicago? We’ve put together this comprehensive guide to help you understand what to expect and how to make the most of our professional HVAC services.

Before Your Appointment

A successful first visit starts with proper preparation. Here are some steps to take before our technicians arrive:

  • Make a list of any heating or cooling issues you’ve noticed
  • Clear access to your HVAC equipment (indoor and outdoor units)
  • Secure pets in a separate room for their safety
  • Have your HVAC system’s maintenance history available if possible
  • Note any rooms that seem particularly hot or cold

What to Expect During Your First Visit

Our professional technicians follow a thorough process to ensure your HVAC system receives proper attention:

Initial Consultation

We’ll begin by discussing your concerns and needs, reviewing the history of your system, and answering any questions you might have about our services.

  • Proper refrigerant levels (for AC units)
  • Electrical connections and components
  • Thermostat functionality
  • Air filter condition
