AccuMax Incorporated

Dan at Accumax has installed not only my furnace and AC, but also recently my new hot water tank. He is professional, on-​time, and helps explain how things work to help better educate you in the inner workings of your home. When he came out to do my water heater, he also took it upon himself to inspect my furnace/​humidifier to ensure proper functioning and gave me a new filter as my humidifier pad was on its last legs. You can’t go wrong with them — I have trusted him with my home when having to run out a few times. Great company.

What a change for once when it comes to something in your home! First time home buyers and we discover our AC is done and our furnace is also on its last leg. We got quotes from several other companies. A few were just crazy expensive for what seemed to be absolutely no reason, but Accumax was by far the lowest for what actually seemed like the most. Not only was the pricing where we needed it to be (without having to try to get there either like with other companies), Dan was great to work with, explaining the AC’s and furnance and just being honest about things too. He had brochures that we could look through, and for the first time since we bought the house, we finally didn’t feel like someone was trying to capitalize on our misfortune. We felt like we were getting a great deal and a really quality product — this was all just during our initial meeting.
Installation day came and Dan and his guys came in and got the work done fast! They were very mindful of our floors, laying mats down for where they were going, didn’t leave any sort of mess, barely even noticed them really! It was really nice to see an owner (Dan) there working and supervising the process to insure it went smoothly. After it was all done he walked us through the filters and the thermostat which was great! On top of that, Dan & his wife take care of the Nicor & Comed rebate paperwork so you don’t have to deal with that because apparently it’s a really horrible process… some of the other companies said we would have to do it ourselves.
Finally, we got a touchscreen thermostat installed. Dan said it was being slow to touch and he was going to come back the next at noon and put in a whole new one instead of us trying to reboot and hope it works all right. We played with a lil after he left… it was slow, but something we feel like another company would pawn off being like «that’s just the way it is»…not Accumax! Dan was there right at 12 the next day, installed the new one, and it worked great — just like the touch on your phone or tablet.
Overall, couldn’t be happier about going with Accumax — so glad we gave them our business, so much we signed up for their service plan!

Dan from AccuMax is a honest guy who wants to help his clients. He has flat pricing and makes you aware of details that could affect matters.
In the recent super cold weather of Feb. 2014 my furnace went out and Dan talked me through a problem on the phone and came to fix things as soon as he could the next morning.

My furnace decided to start getting finicky on one of the coldest days of the season… it was –15 outside. We also had a leaking humidifier and a home inspector claimed there was a small gas leak in our fire place. I called Accumax on a Monday morning and they got out to my house around 2pm and fixed everything within a half hour for a reasonable price. The technician. Daniel Baloun, was very friendly and professional. I absolutely recommend their service.

Few things can be more terrifying than having to call someone to repair major appliances. Unless you have a recommendation from a friend, you are blindly trusting that the business you hire will not gouge you on the price and will do the work right.
In addition to HVAC, Accumax also provides appliance repair. My dryer stopped heating yesterday but the rest of the functions seemed fine. I found Accumax on the web and there were also a few reviews that were very positive. Given that I did not want to buy a new dryer, I took a shot.
Excellent service from the moment I called! Very friendly on the phone and I was able to get an appointment that afternoon. They showed up right on time, isolated the problem (burned out fuse) and were on their way in half an hour. Service call + labor + parts were $ 100 which was very reasonable. Would highly recommend Accumax for any HVAC installation and service or appliance repair.
