I hired Lockwood Furnace after having several technicians come to the house to provide free estimates. I honestly expected a lower quality of product, and customer service, when the price quoted is almost $1k lower then the nearest competitors quote for similar equipment/ services. I was pleasantly surprised!Not only did I save on the cost, but Lockwood also spent the time to walk me through the financing process, contacted me prior to the installation to walk me through what to expect, and followed up after to ensure I didn’t have any questions or experiencing any issues.I would never wish the headache associated with furnace/AC repair or replacement on anyone, I would strongly recommend Lockwood to anyone finding themselves in need of an affordable, quality, and honest furnace/ AC technician.
Great service and price! Bob really explained everything that they would do. Quick installation. Love our new stay!
Best price in the area by far!! Extremely professional. Explained every aspect of the new system. Extremely pleased with the product and service. Highly recommend!!
I requested a diagnosis of the ac unit, as it suddenly stopped working. The technician arrived completed the diagnosis which turned out to be a fan module. Part ordered and the repair was completed, at a very reasonable price. Will definitely use their svc again when needed.I
They knew exactly how to Install the new air conditioner. The have backed it up with a 10 year warranty. The people in the office are willing to help as well. Im confident with Lockwood.
We have relied on Lockwood Furnace for all of our heating and cooling needs for the past 16 years with no complaint, We don’t have to call on them often but when we do they arrive on time and repairs were completed in a timely manner. After our last repair in February we had a related issue hours later that was our error, but they came back the same day to correct the issue. Always professional and they always get the job done right.
A neighbor recommended Lockwood and Im so pleased she did. Matthew was professional, knowledgeable, personable, and timely. When I had a follow up concern, he came the very next day accommodating my schedule. I have no reservations making this a solidly high recommendation and recently suggested Lockwood to a family member.
Great experience with Lockwood. Just upgraded our furnace and AC unit. Bob came out gave me an estimate pretty much on the spot and answered all my questions. Andy installed and was in and out in less than 2 days. Explained every question I had and was super qualified. Highly recommend.
Responsive, courteous, and knowledgeable. Resolved the issue quickly and explained well the next step.
Jeff our technician was great. He was very polite and helpful in helping me understand the new thermostat he replace into a programmable on. Good company and were responsive right away to my need.
Very professional and easy to deal with to set everything up for my AC install. Very fair pricing (price match guarantee) and easy scheduling process. Thank you Lockwood Furnace!
My story starts with needing a AC / Furnace install, big job that required running new lines, everything new. I call the 2 big players in Joliet Lockwood being one of the 2, I also called a 3rd union company here in Joliet wanting quotes from all three.. Lockwood sends Bob, he runs the show over there for the owner.. I get my 3 quotes and ya, like I figured Lockwood blew everyone out of the water with a very aggressive quote! I than stopped by there office in Joliet and spoke to Nina who helped me get my quote finalized, and get me set up on the calendar for a date and time for the install...One big problem, the weather was in the 90s, and with my job being such a large job, a 3 day install, I was looking at almost a month out, all of the HVAC Companies at this time of year are flooded with calls, and backed up big time.. But Nina, with her compassion told me she would try??... She had compassion for my situation, because I had no AC. I exchanged emails with her at the office, and she stayed in touch with me to keep me positive, and informed... Nina pulled a trick out from under the table, boom, she emails me.. I switched a few things up, your up next, can we please come Monday!!!.... Than Monday comes, and in walks Andy a company employee of about 20 Years... This guy is amazing, his helper even told me off to the side Andy is amazing, he is like magic... How right he was.. Andy was personable, hardworking, focused and engaged at the task at hand...I was following Andy and his helper around allot just to watch, and learn a few things. What I liked most about Andy was he did not cut any corners, he does it like Lockwood expects, the right way, no cutting any corners, no shortcuts period...If your in the Will County area, down by Joliet this is a must quote to get.. CALL, Ask for Nina, she will get you set up, she will get Bob out there to meet with you. Bob is cool, a knowledgeable professional, he wont say a real lot, but just point a few things out, he has been doing this a long time, over 20 years, so his quotes are short and sweet.. he just looks, and he knows!.. Bob emailed me my quote in a day, one of the other companies I quoted never got back to me?, so I complained and told them they made a big mistake, my Job was big, BIG bucks...I live in a big condo complex of about 240 neighbors of mine... Any chance that I get, I will be praising Lockwood Furnace Company to all my neighbors...They exceeded my expectations big time .. One final point that I want to make, and its probably the most important, and best part of my experience, was the fact that not only did Bobs quote blow the other 2 companies out of the water, but his quote all came with Trane Equipment, Trane is the best you can buy, cant get any better... I am soooo happy that I picked Lockwood for my install, Give Nina a call, trust me you will be pleased.. I Am ..!!
I moved into my house 6 years ago and they had this company install a hot water heater prior to this and their name was on the thermostat, hot water heater, AC, and heater. Our hot water heater went out without any warnings. I called them for a service call and they came the same day. Unfortunately for me the hot water tank needed to be replaced. My technician Matt came out and advised us on our options. We chose to have it replaced. He was able to get this done in the same day. He was so customer friendly and was knowledgeable on my older system. He went up and above to finalize the process in just one day. They were very respectful to the social distancing and did not make any mess. I will recommend this company and Matt to all my family and friends. This is a very reputable company for anyone who is looking to get any work done. I will be a returning customer when I need something.
They have installed furnace and air conditioning at separate times. Very professional and good looking results. Service was very timely and friendly when needed. Would recommend.
Very professional and know exactly what you need. Quickly answer the questions you have. Would highly recommend doing business with them.
All employees involved were professional and courteous. Installers did a great job and cleaned up after.
Very good people to work with. Polite and very knowledgeable.
Great company. My family has been using them for years.
Always professional and great at explaining what is wrong. Ted was able to make it to our house in a timely manner and repair the furnace.
I bought my home in Kendall Ridge about 17 years ago and have dealt with Lockwood since then I have used them for semi-annual maintenance and any needed repair work and my AC and furnace have lasted 19 years. I have recently chosen to have Lockwood replace my AC and Furnace and I Confident they will do the same great job for me. I am a huge supporter of local business and Lockwood is a great one. Very highly recommended by a very loyal and supportive customer.
The tech, Jeff, did a great job reviewing his maintenance observations after cleaning our furnace. He was thorough, friendly, and very professional. From scheduling my service to performing the work, Lockwood Furnace Company hires excellent people and does a great job. Thank YOU!
What a wonderful experience working with Lockwood Furnace. Such professional people. And the price was right. On top of a new HVAC system they were kind enough to also install a new water heater for me. Everything was priced right. The work was done neatly, again professionally, and on time. The product is top of the line for both HVAC and water heater. I want to thank Lockwood for going above and beyond.
Quick, Honest and Dependable. Brandon the technician was professional and extremely knowledgeable. Our household has used Lockwood for years and will continue to do so.
Installed new AC/ Furnace as well as humidifier and ductwork
My family has used Lockwood since we bought our first home in 2007. Lockwood has always been professional, on time, knowledgeable, and most of all, high quality. Over the years they have really kept our furnace and A/C systems in tip-top shape, with excellent office staff. We just installed a new furnace and hot water heater at our current home, and from the initial estimate of services through installation Lockwood was realistic about install times, talked with us about our options, stuck by their original estimates, and the work included a lot of re-routing pipes, sheet metal fabrication, and more. I really cant say enough about them. They have never disappointed us - their employees seem to stay with the company a long time. The estimator had 40 years, the install guy had been with the company for 14 years. This is a sign not only of a business who knows their job, they seem to treat their employees right, too.
Came exactly when they said they would. Did a thorough job. Found an unexpected problem that was still under warranty.
Was there for 10mins did literally no work... theyve been to my house before for the exact same thing everytime why would I pay for a home visit for you to come out and look at your own work the problem basically fixed its self before he got there and still charged me a $100 just to tell me my furnace has a short life thanks for nothing will not be using them again and do not recommend
Technician was prompt and very courteous. I also appreciate his knowledge of heating systems, how thorough he was in the inspection and his suggestions.
Showed up on time. The attention to detail was great. Replaced furnace, humidifier, and filter. Also cleaned out blocked pipe to roof from nesting material and replaced cap on roof so it wont happen again. When you see the professional job they do you feel like it was money well spent, and at a good price too.
Very courteous and knowledgeable. The service man pinpointed and fixed the problem in a very short time. I will use Lockwood for any HVAC issues in the future. I highly recommend this company.
Have had Lockwood for many years they have always been exceptional on their services. From installation to regular maintenance
Technician was extremely competent and professional. Diagnosed problem immediately, went to shop to get parts and repaired furnace efficiently and in a timely manner.Very impressive.
Lockwood actually called me to pull up my appointment when an opening came available. Technician quickly identified and corrected the issue and was very personable.
Great service and quality products. Efficient and effective
Very knowledgeable and professional install team. Extremely happy with our experience with Lockwood Furnace.
I have always been very happy with the service from Lockwood Furnace Co. I’ve had them service my units since 2007! The installers Doug Price and Jeff were every professional and knowledgeable! I highly recommend this Company for all your heating and cooling needs!
Couldnt be happier. Lockwood was responsive, and the price was reasonable. Wish I had done years ago.
Cleaned and checked Furnace for winter.Followed check list.Came early ok.Still working fine.Thanks good job.
The service was fine, however the service technician was not personable at all. He acted like he didnt want to be there and it seemed like an inconvenience if we asked a question. My husband asked him if everything checked out with our furnace and he said See that rag. It was clean when I started. Did not say it in a joking manner. He acted like he was reprimanding us. We have never had anyone like him before from Lockwood Furnace and hope we dont again!
Great customer service. They are proactive, pleasant to work with and very professional
Yesterday I had Lockwood Furnace Company come to my house and do seasonal maintenance on my two furnaces. Yes, I have two furnaces. One serves the downstairs unit that I own and in which I live. The other furnace serves an unoccupied upstairs apartment. (The ultimate disposition of the upstairs apartment is undetermined for the present. It would require an investment in remodeling and repairs in order to bring it into rental readiness, and I would rather put that kind of money into financial investments for my approaching retirement. And once I am retired, I am not sure whether I will keep the house or sell it. So, for now, the upstairs is a small drain on my pocketbook, due to the unavoidable utilities of heating and cooling it to a minimal degree.)I bring up this level of detail to mention the highlight of the visit of the Lockwood technician to do the seasonal maintenance on the two furnaces. In order to keep my gas bills low for the upstairs, I was in a habit of keeping its thermostat set at 50°F except for the most bitter of arctic cold spells when I would raise it to a higher setting to protect the water pipes from freezing. The Lockwood technician noticed this and made it a point to mention to me that the research that he has read indicates that it is far better to make 58° the minimum for a standby furnace such as this, because a lower setting subjects the heat exchanger to dealing with condensation that forms when the furnace begins heating from such a cold setting. Now that was rather bold advice for this technician to give me, given that he barely knew me and I hadnt asked for his advice. But it so happened to be the case that this very lightly used furnace had suffered an inexplicable cracked heat exchanger which wasnt cheap to repair just around a year ago. All of a sudden the light bulb went on in my brain and I realized that I had probably contributed in my furnace ignorance to that heat exchanger breakdown. So I actually really appreciated this Lockwood guy being confident and knowledgeable enough to give me news that I didnt want to hear. So after he left I adjusted the constant setting for the upstairs unit from 50° to 56° and my away and nighttime setting on my downstairs furnace from 52° to 56°. ( Okay, I chose 56° instead of 58°. Call me cheap but I dont like giving more to the gas utility than I absolutely have to. )So, another good reason to use Lockwood for your HVAC needs is that they are experienced, knowledgeable and concerned enough to tell you what you need to hear, when they perceive that what they know can help you.So I continue to be a Lockwood Furnace customer and am happy to share why.
Been a customer for years they are always courteous and professional and explain what was done
We moved in to a larger home that has 2 furnaces & 2 a/c units & saw that Lockwood had initially installed the systems so it was a no brainer on who we were to choose for maintenance. They were on time, honest about the 20 year furnaces & saved us money from having to buy 2 new ones with the repairs they made. I highly recommend!
I was very pleased with the final product and workmanship. The guys made sure every aspect of the job was done properly. They even mounted the outside AC unit to the foundation. It was previously on a thin cement pad. They reviewed the filtration and humidifier with me. Discussed the manuals, warranty and new thermostat. I even got a list of names of all the workers, in case of any future questions.Additionally they did a nice job cleaning up the work area and removing the old equipment.This is the second job i have used them on within a year. I had them do my rental house as well as my primary residence. I highly recommend them on price, equipment selection and honesty.
Excellent, professional service. Took their time to explained everything to me. Friendly and respectful. Would highly recommend.
Lockwood Furnace has provided annual HVAC service at my residence for more than ten years. I have been completely satisfied the professionalism of the staff. I highly recommended them
I have been a customer of Lockwood Furnace for many years at my previous home and now in my condo. They are very accommodating and professional always taking time to go the extra step to assure satisfaction. You get what you pay for, but Lockwood is a bonus and you won’t be sorry.
Technician was professional, quick to diagnose the problem, able to fix within 30 minutes, with a very reasonable price. Thank you.
Have been using this company for 20 years and they are professional, prompt, honest, trustworthy.
My water heater went out yesterday and Matt came out immediately to check it out.They ordered a new one and had a team out early this am. to install. Everything went well they all did a great job, in fact, they removed an additional water heater from my basement at no additional charge.I have used them in the past on my HVAC as well and they are great!
We’ve been using Lockwood Furnace for 30 years and are very happy with their work. Our tech Sam was very professional & polite!
We have been doing business with Lockwood for many years, always quality work.
A/C, furnace, humidifier and media air filter replaced. Outstanding customer service, extremely responsive and informative. Installers, Andy and Josh, were professional, timely, conscientious and really nice guys. Would definitely recommend. We are super pleased with entire process from bid to installation! Lockwood exceeded our expectations...all during some of the hottest weather of the season. 5++ stars.
Lockwood Furnace was able to schedule me quickly. The guys who came out were very courteous and efficient. They got the job done faster than anticipated.
Been with Lockwood last 8 years and a very satisfied customer. On time, no surprises, great techs, what else does one need with a furnace and AC dealer.
I have been using Lockwood for quite a number of years for my heating and cooling work. I am impressed with their fine service and constant professionalism. Today a new HVAC system was expertly and meticulously installed by Matt and Andy. They were on time, courteous, and did beautiful work. I highly recommend Lockwood for your heating and cooling needs.
Have used Lockwood for both furnace and AC installs. Very professional, showed up earlier than expected and finished earlier than expected. Would recommend to a friend or family member without hesitation.
Electrician came and solved my A.C problem.
Would recommend Lockwood furnace for air conditioner. It was easy to get quote, price beat everyone for name brand air conditioner, fast friendly install
They are good for furnace and AC cleaning. But when I had a technician install a Smart thermostat he was disrespectful and cut a wire to my humidifier. Im good with electricity so I was able to figure out why the humidifier was not working. But Im sure they would over charge me if I called them to fix it.
Outstanding service in installing our new furnace and air conditioning. Couldnt be more pleased. Highly recommend Lockwood Furnace Company.
The technicians did a thorough and excellent jobThey were courteous and efficientThey were also conscientious and cleaned up all the old parts and removed from my houseThey answered all questions and explained anything I asked aboutI highly recommend using Lockwood
Great company!!! Someone you can trust, very respectful. Just very good people.
Lockwood Furnace is consistently professional. Maintained our previous furnace/ac, installed new unit, and continues to be extremely reliable.
Have utilized Lockwood Furnace Company for over twenty years. They have always been reliable and honest.
I liked the products I purchased from them. I liked the quality of the installation. The workers were very helpful answering my questions. The installers went above and beyond my contracted work, because they noticed a problem with my water heater and they fixed it. The quoted price was less than the other 3 quotes I received. Doug, Ted, and Brett were great!
We had our entire HVAC replaced and added both an air purifier and humidifier. From the sales person, Bob, to the installers, Doug and Brett, they were all fantastic to work with, answering questions thoroughly, working well with our 130 lb German Shepherd, cleaning up after, the care taken while carrying in the supplies and wearing PPE. We cannot say enough good things about you guys!
Reliable, friendly, professional service. Always. We’ve been customers over 10 years.
Great company and well run. Bob came out next day for a quote on a new A/C unit and explained every detail of the install along with any other questions I had. Had three other quotes and Lockwood blew them out by nearly $800 on the same exact unit or comparable units. Lockwood installed the original furnace when the home was built (before my ownership) and it’s a Trane so they’re built to last. Can’t go wrong with Trane and liked the fact Lockwood is local and employ hardworking techs who were very professional and personable. All other companies I called sent “comfort consultants” which is just a fancy way of saying a HVAC salesman and not a tech. Bob knows his stuff and there was no hard-sell like the other places calling me day after day. If you’re in the Joliet area you shouldn’t be calling anyone else but Lockwood!
Ted was very helpful in explaining what he was doing and answering some questions that we had.
As a loyal, 20 customer of Lockwood Furnance, I feel the $96 service charge of 8.13.20 should be refunded to us.1. On 7.20.20 Lockwood performed an AC service checkup which per your phone rep is essentially a cleaning.2. On 8.13 I called due to water leaking under the furnance. Your tech poured a little water in the A/C drain tubing, remove it, blew with his mouth and used a screw driver to remove a little debris. No parts were required.3. During the 7.20 visit I did not see the rep remove and/or otherwise clean the drain tubing.4. Since I paid for a CLEANING on 7.20, I do not feel charging a 2nd $96 service fee for a truncated version of CLEANING is legitimate. Especially only 2 weeks after your 1st visit AND, the 2nd service call required no parts and was unilaterally covered your 1st CLEANING visit.5. I feel the above falls firmly within the statutes: BUSINESS TRANSACTIONS(815 ILCS 513/) Home Repair & Remodeling ActRegards,
Had a 2 1/2 ton central air installed and working in 6 hrs. anyone else would be done in a couple of days. Thanks Lockwood and even cheaper than other bids. your Guys did a great job. Thanks again....
I’ve always turned to Lockwood for professional level of workmanship. They are knowledgeable and I consider them ‘A friend ‘ in the business. Ive had others provide quotes for services but always choose Lockwood because they do quality and trustworthy work. They installed a hot water heater for me in Joliet ( plainfield) and I was very happy with their work.
It was great. Matt was a real professional and have had you guys for 15 years.
This company is now my go to for any HVAC issues. I needed a new furnace and they were quick and reasonably priced. The tech went out of his way and rebuilt some of the ductwork during the install. I highly recommend Lockwood Furnace.
Lockwood Furnance Co. went above and beyond my expectations from Bob with his through explanition of my homes specific need and the options to get me the most effecient system that fits within my budget. This along with the two installers that walked me through the install process, took the time to make sure I understood the functions of my new system, cleaned up after install, and made sure they answered any questions that i had. Excellent job by Lockwood. I would highly recommend this company.
Rep was not a sub-contractor, and was fully knowledgeable, made a quick assessment, showed me pictures of internal issues with my AC/ made quick, accurate, and edfective repair, and made quick estimate on replacement. Then the company owner areived next-day and began replacement estimates. All wore masks, no goofing around. Glad I called them as they were terriffic last winter when blower went out on coldest night of the decade! Their name was on the originalnunit in my house, and theor great performances proove why they are still in business 20 years since.Shawn McConnell LTC USA (Ret)Plainfield, IL
I have been using them for the last 10 years or so to clean and maintain my furnace. I also use them for my AC maintenance.
Has a new A/C installed today. Excellent, informative and friendly service. Thank you.
Andy taught us a lot about our system we didn’t know after repairing our unit. New house still learning it all. He could’ve fixed and left on a Saturday but saw humidifier wasn’t set right and outside air intake. Took the time to max out our efficiency and comfort. You can still find real pros out there!
A great company to do business with!
A NEW FURNACE AND AIR CONDITIONER WAS INSTALLED AND WE ARE HAPPY.
Matthew came out today to work on my ac unit. Im very satisfied with the job he did. Matthew was very efficient and knowledgeable of his work! I would definitely refer him with my friends and family.
Prompt and efficient service.
If you are looking for a reputable company, knowledgeable and professional technicians who provide custom solutions and excellent service, I would highly recommend Lockwood Furnace Company.
Very professional and fast service.
Excellent service- very knowledgeable and professional
Great company!
My husband, and I are very pleased with our New Install of AC, and Furnace. The 2 gentleman who did the work Andrew, and his assistant were very efficient, and polite.Went above, and beyond. We have a dirt crawl where Funace was installed not the best place to work. They handled the job like champs. Lockwood has very fair pricing. I would Highly recommend this company.
Lockwood was able to get the capacitor I needed after a few hours but told me there was no return or warranty offered after purchase. At $35 for a made in China Titan Pro, the price was also on the high side but they were local and I had 3 dogs at home that were already panting and a wife that was potentially coming home from work in a few hours to a hot house. When I went to pickup, I asked if I could test it with my ohm meter before purchase since there is no return and one of the ladies at the desk got up and rather rudely told me no and grabbed the box out of my hand and said you see its new in a box?. My thought was, come on, you havent dealt with any new DOA parts at all? Really? Also, how about a little respect to customers and your elders? Yes, at the end of the day, Lockwood was able to get me the capacitor I needed for my 5 ton unit and it did resolve the problem so both the dogs and the wife came home to a cool home but the ladys nasty attitude and customer service brings the rating down. If youre not going to offer any warrant or return policy at all, then maybe test it in front of customer to show its good upon sale. At least that removes the seller, in this case Lockwood Furnace Co. from being accused of selling DOA parts which is a reputation no business wants. Grainger in Downers Grove was originally my first choice and had better prices matching online stores like Amazon but couldnt get one in until the next day. To avoid this situation in future, I just order the same Titan Pro capacitor as a spare online at nearly half the price.
On a Saturday morning in late February 2020 the furnace went out at our rental property. We called Lockwood because their website said open 24/7, Trane dealer, services Chicagoland area .The repairman said its $144.00 to come out. We said please come out because our tenants needed heat as it was going to be in the 20s that night. He did come, but said he didnt have parts and could not get them. He told our tenants to get portable heaters until Monday when he could come back. We called someone else who knows about HVAC for help. He called Munchs Supply and paid $150.00 for them to open doors on a Saturday. He got parts, fixed the furnace and our tenants had heat within 2 hours. Open 24/7 to do a drive by and collect $144.00 is unacceptable. I WOULD NOT RECCOMEND LOCKWOOD.
Professional and efficient service. I have used Lockwood Furnace Company since 1998.
Awesome company. Very professional and courteous. Was able to fix our furnace within a half an hour and at a reasonable rate. Thank you for making our home warm again!
We needed a Furnace and Air Conditioner in our home. Bob came out and went over our options. We decided to go with the Trane high efficiency models. Andy and Doug did our Installation, and did a wonderful job. I highly recommend Lockwood Furnance for any of your needs.
Prompt,clean,competent and trustworthy! I couldnt be more satisfied.
Excellent service and work !
Very prompt. Diagnosed the problem and fixed it in a very short time. Pricing was very fair!
We have had 3 technicians out to look at our unit. We still have no air conditioning. I gave them 1 star for showing up. This whole situation is totally unacceptable.
Excellent workmanship. Went above and beyond expectations.
Called on a Friday at 5:30 p.m.; spoke with an answering service. Said it wasnt an emergency and they said someone will give you a call. Today is Saturday at 1:53 p.m. and still have not received a call. Decided to call another service this morning around 9:45 a.m. and they had a guy out here around 12:30 p.m.
