Air Conditioning Installation and Replacement
If your air conditioner has reached the point where repairs no longer do the job or your home’s energy efficiency is at an all-time low, you may need a new system. When your Sycamore, IL, home is ready for a new or replacement air conditioner, our Service Now Home Services professionals will install your cooling system without delay.
How do you know if you need a replacement air conditioner? Here are some of the most common issues. Your unit is:
- Approaching the end of its life span, usually between 15 and 20 years
Efficiency decreases as your system gets closer to the end of its life. You want to act proactively to plan what your replacement purchase will be instead of acting reactively when your system unexpectedly quits. This can save you money.
- Experiencing more and more repairs
Similar to when your car requires more and more repairs, there comes a time for evaluation. Are you spending more in repairs than it would cost to invest in a new system? If the answer is yes, call and talk to one of our knowledgeable team members to discuss your options.
- Showing signs of running inefficiently
How can you tell if your air conditioner is running inefficiently? A good indication is if your energy bills are increasing and your utility company’s rates remain steady.
This typically demonstrates it’s taking longer for your heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system to cool down your Illinois home to your preferred comfort level. Your system is running longer and using more energy than it should in this case—an increase in energy costs.
If you notice any of these signs with your air conditioner, or if you suspect another reason for needing a replacement, talk to one of our Service Now Home Services team members. We will design a system best matched for your comfort needs and budget. Our experts are always here to help you.
We also offer several financing options to help if this is a concern. Contact us to discuss how our team can guide you through our process.

“We came home on 7/11/26 to find our AC frozen up again – second time in 2weeks. The unit had just had its yearly inspection 3weeks prior. I placed a call for service and was assigned a time slot for the next day. The technician called the next day to confirm the appointment and ask several pertinent questions to help him prepare while he drove from Starve Rock area to our house. Once here he quickly identified the problem (s) and told us there would be no service fee for his call since the installation had not been done properly leading to three leaks in the system. He then spent almost 3 hours in the heat tearing apart the system, replacing a coil, replacing the refrigerant and fixing the leaks. When I ask Ian, the tech, what we owed he said nothing. He considered it a warranty situation and it was covered even through the system was several years old. Many other companies would have charged us anyway. ServiceNow continues to amaze me with their promptness, their products, their honesty and their dedication to providing true customer service. Ian was absolutely great saying several times that with the heat wave coming this week he just wanted to be sure we had AC. You cannot find a better company to work with- period.”
“I had issues with my air conditioning in the middle of a heat wave. I made a call to Service now and within a few hours Stella showed up. She was professional , hard working and did everything she could to get it up and running. Unfortunately I need a new unit . 2 days laterJesus and Anthony showed up to replace the unit. They were professional and hardworking as well. I highly recommend Service Now for all your HVAC needs!”
“Your team came, I had an air conditioner, furnace and water heater installed. Everyone I encountered was polit, neat and professional. They all worked so well together. I was impressed!! Thank you Chris, Bre, Jimmy, Eric, Anthony, Stella & Andy! -Grateful homeowner. “
“Anthony came and explained the problems and did several things to make sure everything was working.”
“Anthony was on time, courtesy, professional and efficient. Thank you!”
“Prices were extraordinarily high. 2 parts that probably TOTALED a cost of less than $150 and my elderly mom was charged $304.70 FOR EACH! Call and ask about it and get told "It's the price of doing business." What a crappy operation that is being run here! First tech couldn't even get it fixed after 4 hours, and had to go back and get help to finally get it working. I told the manager that I was surprised they even had a business, and in a smug tone was told "have been for 35 years."
Steer clear of this business if you value money and quality people to help with your A/C repairs!
Can't give ZERO stars for the review, but would if I could!”
“Ethan was very polite, respectful, and knowledgeable. He completed our repair during a scheduled maintenance right on the spot. Thanks Ethan!”
“Ethan came to my house on time. Fixed my central air conditioning he was amazing and a sweet sweet young man highly recommend him come back anytime.”
