Ductless Heating in Bensenville, IL

Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling Offers Seasonal Maintenance Plans

Ductless Heating Solutions for Bensenville Homes

When winter temperatures drop in Bensenville, IL, having an efficient and reliable heating system becomes essential for maintaining comfort in your home. Ductless heating systems have emerged as one of the most innovative solutions for homeowners seeking energy efficiency, flexible installation options, and superior comfort control. At Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, we specialize in installing and servicing these advanced systems throughout Bensenville and the surrounding Northern Suburbs, bringing over 20 years of expertise to every installation since 1997.

Ductless heating systems, also known as mini-split systems, operate without the extensive ductwork required by traditional forced-air heating systems. These systems consist of an outdoor compressor unit connected to one or more indoor air handling units through small conduit lines that contain refrigerant tubing, power cables, and condensate drains. This configuration allows for targeted heating in specific zones of your home, providing personalized comfort while reducing energy waste associated with heating unused spaces.

How Ductless Heating Technology Works

The operation of ductless heating systems relies on advanced heat pump technology that transfers heat rather than generating it through combustion. During winter months, the outdoor unit extracts heat from the outside air—even when temperatures are below freezing—and transfers it indoors through the refrigerant lines. The indoor units then distribute this warmth directly into your living spaces through quiet, efficient fans. This process uses significantly less energy than traditional electric resistance heating or older furnace systems, resulting in lower utility bills for Bensenville homeowners.

The indoor units mount on walls, ceilings, or can be recessed into your home’s structure, offering flexibility in placement and design. Each indoor unit operates independently with its own thermostat control, allowing different family members to adjust temperatures in their spaces according to personal preferences. Our highly-trained technicians at Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling ensure proper sizing and placement of these units to maximize efficiency and comfort throughout your Bensenville home.

Benefits of Choosing Ductless Systems

Energy efficiency stands as the primary advantage of ductless heating systems, with many models achieving efficiency ratings exceeding 30 SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio). Traditional ducted systems lose approximately 25-30% of heating energy through ductwork leaks and poor insulation, especially in unconditioned spaces like attics or crawl spaces common in Bensenville homes. By eliminating ducts entirely, these systems deliver nearly 100% of generated heat directly to your living spaces.

Installation flexibility makes ductless systems ideal for various home situations in Bensenville. Whether you’re adding heating to a new addition, converting an unheated garage or basement, or replacing an outdated heating system in an older home without existing ductwork, ductless technology provides an elegant solution. The installation process requires only a three-inch hole through the wall for the conduit, minimizing structural disruption and preserving your home’s architectural integrity. Our responsive support staff at Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling works with you to develop customized solutions that fit your budget and specific heating needs.

Perfect Applications for Bensenville Properties

Historic homes throughout Bensenville often lack the space for traditional ductwork installation without compromising original architectural features. Ductless systems preserve these historic elements while providing modern heating comfort and efficiency. The compact design of indoor units complements various interior styles, from vintage to contemporary, without dominating room aesthetics.

Home additions and renovations benefit significantly from ductless heating solutions. Rather than extending existing ductwork—which can be costly and may overtax your current HVAC system—installing a dedicated ductless unit provides independent climate control for the new space. This approach proves particularly valuable for sunrooms, converted attics, finished basements, or home offices where heating needs differ from the main living areas. Since 1997, we’ve helped countless Bensenville residents maximize comfort in these challenging spaces through strategic ductless system implementation.

Installation Process and Technical Specifications

The installation process begins with a comprehensive assessment of your Bensenville home’s heating requirements. Our technicians evaluate factors including room sizes, insulation levels, window placement, and sun exposure to determine the optimal system capacity and configuration. Proper sizing ensures efficient operation and prevents short-cycling, which can reduce system lifespan and comfort levels.

Load calculation: We perform detailed heat load calculations considering Bensenville’s climate patterns and your home’s specific characteristics
Equipment selection: Based on calculations, we recommend appropriately sized outdoor and indoor units from leading manufacturers
Strategic placement: Indoor units are positioned for optimal air distribution while maintaining aesthetic appeal
Professional installation: Our certified technicians ensure proper refrigerant charging, electrical connections, and condensate drainage
System commissioning: We thoroughly test all components and provide comprehensive operation training

Maintenance Requirements and Long-Term Performance

Ductless heating systems require minimal maintenance compared to traditional furnaces, contributing to their appeal for busy Bensenville homeowners. Regular filter cleaning or replacement, typically monthly during peak heating season, maintains optimal airflow and efficiency. The absence of ductwork eliminates the need for duct cleaning and reduces dust and allergen circulation throughout your home, improving indoor air quality for your family.

Annual professional maintenance by Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling ensures your ductless system operates at peak efficiency throughout its lifespan, which typically exceeds 20 years with proper care. Our maintenance services include refrigerant level checks, electrical connection inspections, coil cleaning, and performance verification. This proactive approach prevents unexpected breakdowns during Bensenville’s coldest months and maintains manufacturer warranty validity.

Cost Considerations and Energy Savings

While initial investment in ductless heating may exceed traditional system costs, the long-term savings justify the expenditure for most Bensenville homeowners. Reduced energy consumption translates to lower monthly heating bills, with many customers reporting 30-40% savings compared to their previous heating systems. Additionally, utility companies often offer rebates for high-efficiency heat pump installations, reducing upfront costs.

The zoned heating capability prevents energy waste from heating unoccupied rooms, further enhancing savings. For example, you can maintain comfortable temperatures in living areas during the day while reducing heating in bedrooms, then reverse this pattern at night. This flexibility proves especially valuable for Bensenville families with varying schedules or those who work from home and require comfortable temperatures in home offices during business hours.

Serving customers throughout Chicago and the Northern Suburbs for over 20 years has given us extensive experience with local climate challenges and heating requirements. Bensenville’s variable winter weather, with temperatures ranging from mild to severely cold, demands heating systems capable of maintaining comfort across diverse conditions. Ductless systems excel in this environment, providing consistent warmth even when outdoor temperatures plummet. Trust Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling to deliver quality customer service, reliability, and expertise in heating solutions tailored to your Bensenville home’s unique requirements.

Customer Reviews

Danny and the folks at Oasis got us a great deal on a new furnace and AC. The install took about 4 hours, and they were also super responsive throughout the process. It was about as good of an experience I’ve had with an HVAC company. I’d highly recommend!

Brian C.

Oasis was incredibly responsive and efficient! My call to them on a Friday night during a cold spell was returned within 10 minutes and he scheduled a tech to come to my home at 7 the following morning. At 7 the tech was there, examined my furnace confirming that a new motor was necessary. He searched for the part, sent a quote and returned with the motor by noon the same day to install it. You can’t beat that!!! I will be using Oasis for all my future furnace and A/C needs.

Gayle V.

Oasis is great! My furnace is almost 30 years old and for a reasonable price they were able to do the repairs. First Danny came to evaluate. He showed me what was wrong. They had to order the necessary parts to fix it. Today Hani and Fernando came to do the repair. They were efficient and courteous. I will definitely use Oasis in the future.

Emily H.

Oasis has always been great to work with and their staff are quick and efficient if issues arise. When our air conditioning broke down during the heat of the summer, they provided a quick replacement at a competitive price. Their staff are always extremely kind, respectful, and knowledgeable.

Sam C.

I called Oasis this morning because my furnace was not working. Within 20 minutes their technician, Danny, arrived. Danny was able to assess the situation, provide an immediate fix, and even commit to returning Monday morning to provide additional services needed. Danny was friendly, informative, professional and FAST! I am thankful I called Oasis for my immediate heating needs and that Danny was the technician who arrived. Top notch service! Highly recommend.

Megan R.

I had a great experience with Oasis. Our furnace had issues on Thursday night and Oasis came at 7am the next morning, and we found out we needed a new one. They provided all the necessary information to our condo building so we could get an emergency replacement on Saturday morning. Within 36 hours we had a brand new furnace and the installation team did a great job communicating on their work and how to use the furnace. The owner, Mike, and his team are great and I really appreciated the attention they gave to this matter. I would highly recommend and will only go to them in the future.

Shane H.

The folks with Oasis showed up right on time and replaced my entire furnace and condenser in about 4.5 hours. I had just redone my laundry room where the furnace is and they took great care not to damage anything. Overall very happy with the service and very happy with how respectful the installers were.

Josh D.

I have been using Oasis since 2019. They are reliable, efficient, and their prices are reasonable. The customer service is amazing. Every tech I’ve had come out is knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. The owner, Mike, is hands on and works with you every step of the way. Highly recommend Oasis.
Services include: furnace and AC replacement; annual maintenance.

Bad business model. Their approach is: your heater's issue is so bad, it's unsolvable by just getting the one part that's faulty right now. Even if we were to get it and replace it, there might be underlying issues which we can't account for. It's better to just get a new furnace, and if you don't have the money, you can address the so-and-so bank and get credit, they're good people. If we were to translate this model into auto-repair, it'd be like: we could change your tire, but what you really need is a new car. Or - translated in medicine: we could fix your husband's kidney, but how about you get a new husband altogether?

Of course the person that oversaw my furnace this morning was like a witch doctor. Didn't even take the screen off, just turned on the thermostat and listened, then went: "oh, it's so bad it's crazy, the blower motor's gone" and hurried to send me an email estimate of the products they're selling and installing. When all this is happening so quickly, you just know something's wrong. What's wrong is that you brought in and accepted a charge from someone who had no intention of doing any work in the first place, plus they had a ready-made reason to explain your furnace's deficiency without even looking at it. That, in my book, is a scam. It's like paying to bring a store vendor into your house and having them tell you: well, I don't know how to fix this, but we definitely have a replacement in the store. How one can call this "providing a service" is beyond me.

So the firm representative collected a $165 service fee for no service, and to prevent any arguing that there's no service, took the lid off and inserted the screwdriver into the inducer motor to show that it's not rotating. I ended up bringing someone else in, and luckily that person wanted to actually work and get paid for the work, so he replaced the faulty part (which was NOT the blower motor). In a nutshell, my belief about Oasis is that it's filled with people who can only do whole unit replacements rather than actual service. So, next to overpricing, you've got lesser qualifications and false advertising. In an idiomatic sentence, here goes my two cents and 165 bucks.

P.S I won't dispute the demeanor of the representative, he was very courteous and explanatory, except not related to the issue at hand, but merely to the matter of selling a product. I've got no way to verify this, but I bet some of the positive reviews present here were written in exchange for some sort of a discount.

Update: Used Oasis a second time for a completely different problem, and they were equally as excellent as the first time. On time, great communication, thorough, experts in anything HVAC-related. This time, we’d discovered that our developer botched the install of our whole-house humidifier, and Oasis saved the day by properly installing a new one only a couple of days after first discovering the problem. Our days of brutally cracked skin and loose floor boards are now behind us! Thanks again, Oasis team!

When we turned on our central air this season, it didn’t seem to be working at all — it would say it was running but either the air coming out wasn’t cooled or there wasn’t any air coming out at all.

We subscribe to competing company’s monthly maintenance program for our HVAC and plumbing, and they’d tested and passed our unit only a month earlier. I had them come back and they diagnosed the problem as a likely refrigerant leak — they explained how they’d go about fixing it and the cost to repair but highly encouraged us instead to buy a whole new system from them — repair cost ~$2500, replacement cost <$10000!

I decided to get a second quote and found Oasis. I liked that they specialize in heating/cooling, and their refrigerant leak repair process sounded much more thorough and was quoted for about the same as the other company. So I went with Oasis because they gave me more confidence that they could fully fix the problem.

They were available within days. The morning of the service, they called to say that they’d had a bunch of their technicians call in sick so they’d be 2 hours later, which was fine — I was just happy that they gave me the heads up so early in the day. They arrived on time at the later time and spent 2 hours testing, locating, and repairing the refrigerant leak. They were incredibly professional and thorough and our HVAC is back to 100% working order. As an added bonus, they gave us a discount because they’d had to arrive 2 hours later than originally planned!

Excellent service and communication across the board. They deserve all of their 5-star reviews!

Response from the owner:Thank you so much, David! We know your appointment did not go as smoothly as we would have liked, because when it rains, it pours, but you were so understanding and we appreciate it so incredibly much! Thank you for the amazing review, and we hope to come help maintain your system next year. And right on time, too!

Unfortunately we had a terrible experience with them. While the technicians were friendly, they did not fix our issue, 3 days and a dangerous gas leak later, we finally had our heat back. In between this mess the owner didn’t even return our calls and no apology when we had to take our kids out of the house for the night. It was during the bitter cold weekend and had to buy space heaters, and then were charged a huge amount for their mistake. I would not recommend if you have an older boiler or unit. I think the lack of experience showed.

Response from the owner:You must be kidding me.
Totally disagree with your statement.
We tried to help you saving your old boiler with minimum charge.
We lost money on this call, but it wasn’t about money.
It was brutally cold and our job is to help people in those situations.
It’s not lack of experience.Its lack of trying to fix something old..We were responding on every your call and making sure that the boiler is fixed.
We came on Sunday and next day after hours in attempt to fix it.You were informed on Sunday that we don’t have that part and the stores are closed .
We never intended to let you down.
Thank you for one star review .
It’s time to replace that boiler.

Danny and team were fantastic. I had them install two new variable speed furnaces and a zoning system. It was a little complicated of an install so did have some initial issues, but the team came back as many times as needed to ensure the system was working for us. We are now living in much more comfort than before, and at a very competitive price. We received multiple bids, but wanted to go with Oasis due to Danny's excellent ideas and explanations during the estimate walkthrough. Oasis also came in with the most competitive price so it was an easy decision. Highly recommend Danny and the rest of the Oasis team.

David Somogyi

Joseph was quick and professional

Gerald Harris

Joseph was excellent service technician and will want him to assist us again!! 00pm

Chad Osborne

Our unit was having trouble keeping up with the sub-zero temperatures. Damir was excellent. He adjusted the airflow and recommended a different filter. Problem solved.

He didn't believe me when told him its blowing cold air. He stood there hand on the vent trying to convince us it's getting hot. It's lukewarm at best. Waste of money. $165 down the drain. That should be illegal. Didn't suggest a part replacement. Only suggested to buy a $6000 new furnace. It's short cycling that's not a broken furnace that's new parts wear and tear situation. I will never recommend Oasis to anyone.

Nancy Levin

What a great experience: replaced the hot water heater, sump pumps - going above and beyond with their care and attention to the issues I hadn't even noticed. Very easy to work with.

MatthewJN

We hit furnace trouble on one of the coldest days of the year, and Oasis still got us in the same day—on-site within two hours of my call. Naem was our technician and was fantastic: kind, quick to diagnose, and had the heat running again in under 30 minutes. They also installed our rooftop A/C and did an excellent job. We’re really grateful for the whole Oasis team and their great service. Highly recommend them to anyone in Chicagoland.

Michael Berman

I know I can always count on Oasis when I have a problem! Joseph came out and was helpful and efficient fixing our furnace, which is more important than ever during the dead of winter! He even helped fix a closet door that helps keep the furnace shielded from my kids. Really grateful to Joseph and the entire Oasis team for another successful visit!

pawan nadkarni

Fantastic job by Fernando! On the coldest day of the year, he was able to come by within the hour and fix our furnace! Thank you!

Garrett Fenley

Joseph was quick and efficient on getting my heat back in order. He explained everything well and went above and beyond

Chiara Levato

I found Oasis through many recommendations by neighbors in our neighborhood facebook group. I’d highly recommend their service as well! Joseph was very professional and knowledgeable. He was very thorough when explaining the issue at hand and made it clear what should be done to address it. We will be using Oasis for our next service for sure! Thank you!

Andria Hernandez

Joseph did a great job servicing my furnace and explaining how everything works. He was timely, efficient, and clean. 10/10 would recommend!

Thankful that Joseph was able to come out so promptly and ensure all was working well with our system. It was just the reassurance we needed going into this cold spell!

Joseph and Michael and team did a great job replacing my furnace. Very professional and cleaned up well after

Robert Mays

Our heat stopped working on a day where the wind chill was below zero. I called, and the company sent someone out within the hour. Our technician Fernando was efficient, transparent, and fixed our issue very quickly for a reasonable cost. We've had very good experiences with Oasis across the board.

Robert Leung

Great and fast service. Got our new heater working during the freezing cold weather.

Nic Meyer

Excellent, fast service by Fernando on a bitter cold Sunday. He addressed our issue quickly and charged us the fee he stated on the phone, which was one of the better prices we found. Will be calling them again.

Our heat went out mid winter. Oasis sent someone out to diagnose the problem and replace the furnace the very next day. Everyone from their team was super kind and helpful. Fernando and Joseph did the install. They were fast, friendly, and explained everything to me to make sure I knew what was going on.

Sydney Dusel

Tech and installation members were friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. The company is extremely easy to reach / provides fair pricing. Our heat went out on 12/30 and someone was out here the next morning on New Years Eve to check it out. Highly recommend for maintenance and repairs!

Jon Heise

Joseph did a great job. Knowledgeable and fast!

Jennifer Geiman

Team Amir was great! Stayed til everything worked even the day after Xmas. Couldn't recommend them enough.

Joe Davis

Damir, Mark, Joseph, Vaha & Anel installed our new HVAC system and we’re all so profesional and polite! It was a big job and it got done really quickly and felt like they were barely here. We also had duct cleaning which was very though, and Chris did some plumbing and did a fantastic job.

Really blown away by the whole company including Marc the owner who did our quote for the whole thing. Will use for all my hvac needs going forward

Ricky Tang

we have been using Oasis for more than 10 years. they replaced our furnace and AC unit through those years. we have never had any problem with heating or cooling since then. Oasis technicians and managers are courteous and knowledgeable. like today, Joseph, spent extra time to show us how our furnace works and the internal safety features that it has. we really appreciate that!

Great experience with Oasis Heating & Cooling. Damir was on time, friendly, and extremely thorough. My furnace needed to be replaced, and he took the time to explain everything clearly while sharing thoughtful maintenance tips, the kind a caring father would give to make sure you’re set up for the long run. He made the whole process easy and stress-free. Highly recommend Damir and Oasis Heating & Cooling.

Rach Ski

Oasis was the quickest to be able to get to us when our heat went out at 9 pm on the coldest day of the year. Fernando and Michael were out the next day with a new unit and went above and beyond! When noticing how bad the a/c unit was with corrosion and mold they were able to replace that as well, timely, and all for a fair price! They were on time, professional, quick, and skillful-thank you!

Sam Hammett

Oasis always delivers! After doing repair work on our AC last year - because the company that did the install wouldn’t return our calls for service - we knew they were the right call for our furnace!

Our furnace motor went out a few days ago - during the winter/a week before Christmas! What a nightmare. Oasis was able to come out first thing the next morning without charging us for an emergency call! Naheem was our repair tech and within 15 minutes he diagnosed the problem and gave us a couple of options with cost estimates. He provided his professional opinion and it felt genuine and unlike a sales pitch!

2 days later, Serge and Harvey came to replace our furnace! They were incredibly kind, respectful and efficient - arriving on time and finishing within the estimated time window. At the end, they did a walkthrough of the new furnace, answered questions about the filters, and even took time to re-affix and correct the settings on our Nest thermostat (that we fully messed up before calling them).

So grateful to find service we can trust!

Update: I continue to use Oasis for ongoing maintenance and repair. This year Joseph came out for the annual check in. He was very professional, went over the system and helped me to better heat my home for the winter. Thank you!

Zach Kennedy

Great service from Joseph! Diagnosed the issue and was very transparent throughout the whole visit.

Ethan York

Easy and courteous. Joseph was efficient and did a great job explaining my furnace system to me and any issues he identified and how to avoid potential issues. Was very satisfied with Oasis.

A Ho

This company is incredibly responsive and professional. They installed two new furnaces and AC units in 2021 in our home. This wasn’t the easiest with one of the furnaces in the attic. They did an excellent job and the units have been working really well. Today, they did some maintenance service on the furnaces and again were friendly, super helpful and very knowledgeable. This is a great company to work with!

Just an update, 12/9/25. We had the units serviced today and Joseph was great. He texted before he arrived allowing me time to put the dogs in kitchen. He was right on time, quick and efficient, and he communicated really well. Plus, he answered all my questions. Really like this company!

Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're glad to hear about your positive experiences with our team and that the installations and maintenance went smoothly. Your support means a lot to us!

Jon _

Fernando and Michael did a fantastic job with the removal and install of our new furnace. Had some helpful tips on operation and maintenance of the new system. Would likely recommend. Very professional and courteous. Great work!

I’ve used Oasis for years and they are very timely and professional

Curtis Malasky

Hi bought a high efficiency furnace from Oasis in 2021. Since then I've had one service call that went great. Today I can home from a trip to find a house without heat. It was snowstorm season, and the crew were very busy, but in lieu of a service call, they were able to walk me through a very easy solution which worked great. They've always been very prompt and skilled. *****

Mark Humphries

Rolled with the punches. They were able to replace my water heater that was practically blocked in by my furnace, and kept me well informed along the way as new obstacles popped up. Much appreciation for they're plumber and the HVAC guy for getting it done and putting out some fires along the way

Melissa W

Simply the best. These guys have been helping me for years. They are not only excellent at what they do, they are totally trustworthy. I would not hesitate to hire them. They do my biannual servicing and help when I have issues which has been fairly often. Can’t recommend them highly enough!

Jason Benacka

We called Oasis on a Saturday when our furnace went out and they were able to come out within 2 hours. Joseph was great, quickly assessed our problem and explained the repairs. He was thorough and got our heat back up and running
