Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling Offers Seasonal Maintenance Plans

Heat Pump Installation in Addison, IL

Heat pump systems represent one of the most efficient heating and cooling solutions available for homes in Addison, IL, offering year-round comfort while significantly reducing energy costs. At Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling, we specialize in professional heat pump installation services that transform how your home maintains comfortable temperatures throughout Illinois’s varying seasons. These versatile systems provide both heating and cooling capabilities through a single unit, extracting heat from outdoor air even in cold temperatures and reversing the process during summer months to cool your home efficiently.

The technology behind modern heat pumps has evolved dramatically over recent years, making them increasingly viable for Midwest climates where temperatures can fluctuate drastically between seasons. Our installation process begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your home’s specific requirements, considering factors such as square footage, insulation quality, existing ductwork condition, and your family’s comfort preferences. This detailed assessment ensures that we recommend and install the perfect heat pump system sized appropriately for your Addison home’s unique characteristics.

Understanding Heat Pump Technology and Benefits

Heat pumps operate on a refrigeration cycle principle, moving heat rather than generating it through combustion like traditional furnaces. During winter months, the system extracts heat from outdoor air and transfers it inside your home, while in summer, it reverses this process to remove heat from indoor spaces. This heat transfer method typically uses 50% less energy than conventional electric resistance heating systems, translating to substantial savings on monthly utility bills for Addison homeowners.

The coefficient of performance (COP) for modern heat pumps ranges between 3.0 and 4.5, meaning they produce three to four and a half units of heating or cooling energy for every unit of electricity consumed. This exceptional efficiency rating surpasses traditional heating systems, which typically achieve efficiency ratings below 100%. Additionally, heat pumps eliminate the need for separate heating and cooling equipment, reducing maintenance requirements and saving valuable space in your home’s mechanical room or basement area.

Installation Process and Technical Requirements

Our certified technicians at Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling follow a meticulous installation process that ensures optimal performance and longevity of your new heat pump system. The installation typically begins with removing any existing equipment and preparing the installation area, which includes verifying electrical service capacity, as heat pumps require dedicated 240-volt circuits with appropriate amperage ratings based on system size. We carefully position the outdoor unit on a level concrete pad or wall-mounted bracket, maintaining proper clearances for airflow and service access while considering aesthetic placement that minimizes visual impact on your property.

Indoor component installation involves connecting the air handler or furnace unit to existing ductwork, ensuring all connections are properly sealed to prevent energy loss. We install new refrigerant lines between indoor and outdoor units, using proper insulation and protection to maintain efficiency and prevent condensation issues. The control wiring connects thermostats and system components, enabling precise temperature control and advanced features like programmable scheduling and zone control capabilities. Our experience serving customers in Chicago and the Northern Suburbs for over 20 years ensures every installation meets or exceeds manufacturer specifications and local building codes.

Selecting the Right Heat Pump System

Choosing the appropriate heat pump for your Addison home involves evaluating several critical factors that impact both performance and long-term satisfaction. System capacity, measured in British Thermal Units (BTUs) or tons, must match your home’s heating and cooling load calculations to ensure efficient operation without short-cycling or inadequate temperature control. We consider seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) ratings for cooling efficiency and heating seasonal performance factor (HSPF) ratings for heating efficiency, recommending systems that balance upfront costs with long-term energy savings.

Variable-speed compressor technology offers superior comfort control and efficiency compared to single-stage systems, adjusting output to match real-time heating or cooling demands. These advanced systems maintain more consistent temperatures, reduce humidity levels more effectively, and operate quieter than traditional fixed-speed units. Since 1997, Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling & Cooling has delivered quality customer service, reliability, and expertise in heating, cooling, and ventilation to our residential and commercial clients, helping homeowners select systems that provide optimal comfort while maximizing energy savings.

Key Considerations for Addison Homeowners

Cold Climate Performance: Modern heat pumps designed for northern climates maintain heating capacity at temperatures as low as negative five degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring reliable comfort during Addison’s coldest winter days
Backup Heating Integration: We can configure hybrid systems that incorporate auxiliary electric heat strips or integrate with existing furnaces for extreme temperature conditions
Ductwork Evaluation: Existing duct systems may require modifications or sealing to optimize heat pump performance and ensure even temperature distribution throughout your home
Electrical Service Upgrades: Some homes may need electrical panel upgrades to accommodate heat pump power requirements, which we coordinate with licensed electricians
Smart Thermostat Integration: Modern heat pumps work seamlessly with WiFi-enabled thermostats, providing remote control and energy usage monitoring capabilities

Maintenance and Long-Term Performance

Proper maintenance ensures your heat pump system operates efficiently throughout its expected 15 to 20-year lifespan. Regular filter changes, typically monthly during peak usage seasons, maintain proper airflow and prevent system strain. Annual professional maintenance by our highly-trained technicians includes checking refrigerant levels, cleaning coils, inspecting electrical connections, and verifying system performance parameters. These preventive measures help identify potential issues before they become costly repairs, maintaining peak efficiency and extending equipment life.

Our responsive support staff offers customized solutions to fit your budget, including maintenance agreements that provide priority service and discounted repairs. We recommend scheduling maintenance visits in spring and fall, preparing your system for the demanding summer cooling and winter heating seasons. Regular maintenance not only preserves manufacturer warranties but also maintains the system’s energy efficiency ratings, ensuring continued utility cost savings throughout your heat pump’s operational life. Investment in professional heat pump installation by Oasis Plumbing, Heating & Cooling provides Addison homeowners with reliable, efficient climate control that adapts to changing seasonal demands while reducing environmental impact and operating costs.

Customer Reviews

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 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.

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.

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 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.

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 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.

Nicole U.

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.

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!

Heather Cuff

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!

Robert Milchling

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!

Carson Heims

Joseph we extremely helpful and gave an in depth explanation of the systems/issues

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!

I have been using Oasis since 2019. They are reliable, efficient, and their prices are reasonable. The customer service is amazing.

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
