Tax Time is here.  If you are getting a refund this year it is a great time to allocate that money for big ticket items that protect your largest investment – your home.

If your furnace is older than 15 years or your central air conditioning unit seems like it is limping along lately it may be time to replace your system. Using your tax refund isn’t just a great way to spend that money, it’s a smart way to spend that money and when you purchase a new heating and air conditioning system this month, you can get a free furnace with our special offer.

 

Why Buy New?

The life-span of a furnace or air conditioner depend on several factors.  But most experts recommend homeowners replacing older units after around 15 to 20 years.

Not only is this a wise investment for your home, it can be a smart move for your monthly budget.  Many newer units feature energy saving features that will save you monthly.

In fact, according to ENERGY STAR, by choosing ENERGY STAR certified heating and cooling equipment and taking steps to optimize its performance, you can enhance the comfort of your home while saving energy. Saving energy helps you save money on utility bills.

 

Why Replace Both Units at the Same Time?

The central air conditioning unit needs a blower motor.  The blower motor is usually part of the furnace. This blower motor helps to blow the cool air through the duct system in your home.  To ensure that your air conditioner is performing efficiently it is recommended that you replace the furnace when you replace the AC unit.

Connecting a new energy-efficient AC unit to an older furnace and blower motor means your system will not perform to its rated efficiency.

 

Need Another Reason?

The best reason to replace both units at the same time is that right now, at TR Miller Heating & Cooling we are offering a free furnace with purchase of a central air conditioner.

Through March 31, 2017 when you purchase an AccuComfort System you can get a free furnace, which is up to a $2,600 rebate!

We can’t think of a better way to use your tax refund!

    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.
