HVAC Service in Homan Square, Chicago

Homan Square stands on the site of the former Sears, Roebuck and Co. headquarters and catalog center, which ran here for most of the 20th century. The original Sears tower on the campus has been restored as a community building.

Since the 1990s, the area has been redeveloped as a mixed-income neighborhood with townhomes, single-family homes and rental buildings, most of them built with forced-air furnaces and central air.

That makes Homan Square different from the older blocks around it: the equipment is newer, the ducts were designed in, and many systems are now reaching the age when the first major replacements come due.

Common decisions here are about replacing original furnaces and ACs, sizing, and keeping systems maintained in rental units.
