AC/ Air Conditioner

If staying cool and worry-free in the summer is important to you, then consider calling for a spring air conditioner clean and check now.  Having the AC unit serviced will not only keep the temperature cool, but will keep your blood pressure down when you don’t have the added concern about paying for an expensive emergency call on the hottest Sunday of the year.

The cost of regular maintenance on your heating and air conditioning equipment can extend their lives by several years, and save up to 15% a month on energy bills.  When you add in the possible savings when the HVAC professional finds and fixes small problems before they grow into larger and more costly ones, and you will appreciate how valuable these service calls can be.

A well-maintained unit can last up to twice as long as a unit that gets ignored.  Units that are not maintained can also lose up to 5% of their efficiency each year, leading to higher energy bills and a more uncomfortable home. 

Homeowners can play their part by changing filters on their ventilation and cooling system at least four times a year (more if there is a lot of dust in the air from construction.)   They should also clean the area around the AC unit, keeping weeds, bushes and leaves away from the unit to facilitate good air flow.    

You’re AC tune-up should include:

  • Inspection of the entire system
  • Cleaning of all coils
  • Condensate line cleaned and drained
  • Lubrication of all moving mechanical parts
  • Replacement of the air filter
  • a check of the thermostat controls and system wiring
  • Fluid and pressure levels checked

T.R. Miller Heating and Cooling offers yearly maintenance agreements that will take the “heat” off for you. 

The advantages of a maintenance agreement include:

  • Longer Equipment Life
  • Higher Efficiencies
  • Fewer Repairs
  • Greater Peace of Mind
  • 15% off parts
  • 13-point Safety Check

And they will call you to set up the tune-up, so you will not even have to put a reminder on your calendar!

    Brian Sloan is the President of TR Miller Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electrical, one of the western Chicago suburbs' leading family owned home service companies, serving homeowners across more than 80 communities throughout Will, Kendall, DuPage, Kane, and Cook counties.

    TR Miller is more than a business to Brian, it's a family legacy. The company was founded by his father, Tim Miller, and Brian and his brother Jim have played an important role in growing the business from a small local operation into a full service residential HVAC, plumbing, and electrical company serving homeowners throughout the greater Chicagoland area.

    Brian's perspective on the home services industry comes from firsthand experience. Before taking on leadership responsibilities, he worked in the field as an HVAC Service Technician and Fabrication Technician, diagnosing heating and cooling systems, assembling custom HVAC components, and supporting residential installations throughout the western suburbs.

    That hands on foundation continues to influence the way Brian leads TR Miller today. He understands both the work taking place inside a customer's home and the systems, training, and support required behind the scenes to consistently deliver a great customer experience.

    Over the course of his career at TR Miller, Brian has worked across nearly every major area of the business, including operations, marketing, sales, job coordination, customer service, finance, and leadership. Today, as President, he is responsible for the overall strategy, growth, culture, and performance of the organization.

    That breadth of experience across both the technical and business sides of home services has helped shape how TR Miller operates: combining the systems and accountability of a professionally run organization with the care, responsiveness, and personal connection of a family business.
    Brian's philosophy is straightforward, make home services convenient and reliable while giving homeowners the information they need to make the best decisions for their homes and families. That means educating customers, providing clear options and upfront pricing, and making sure homeowners understand both what was found and why a repair or replacement may be recommended.

    Under Brian's leadership, TR Miller has expanded beyond HVAC into plumbing and electrical services, grown across multiple locations, invested heavily in technical and leadership development, and been recognized seven times on the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest growing privately held companies.
