Evanston Furnace, AC & Heat Pump Service
MMDS has been fixing and replacing furnaces, air conditioners, boilers and heat pumps across the Chicago suburbs since 2003. Our Deerfield location is about 12 miles away. When you call, you talk to the people who do the work, and most Evanston service calls are seen the same or next day.
Hours: Monday–Friday, 7:30am–5:00pm. Emergencies: we take calls 24/7.
What We See in Evanston Homes
Evanston has some of the oldest housing on the North Shore, including many single-family homes and two-flats heated by steam or hot-water boilers. A few things come up often:
- Small original ductwork. Older duct systems were often built for heat only. We check what your ducts can actually move before recommending equipment size.
- Old venting and chimneys. When older gas appliances are replaced, the venting often needs updating too. We check it as part of every install.
- Boilers and radiators. Many homes here still heat with steam or hot-water boilers. We service and replace boilers and size them to the radiators, not to the old unit.

Replacement Costs in Evanston
Every house is different, but here are honest ranges: AC about $4,000–$8,000; heat pump about $6,000–$10,000 before rebates; furnace about $4,000–$10,000 depending on size, efficiency, brand and location. We install Trane, Carrier, Bosch, Midea, LG, Gree and Goodman, and all equipment comes with a 10-year factory parts warranty, with extended labor coverage included or available depending on the package. In our climate, paying extra for anything above about 17 SEER2 rarely pays back.
Rebates and Utilities in Evanston
Evanston homes get electricity from ComEd and natural gas from Nicor Gas. ComEd offers instant discounts on qualifying heat pumps, which is why heat pumps have become a realistic option here. See our heat pump page for current ComEd discount details. The federal 25C tax credit for heat pumps and furnaces ended for equipment installed after December 31, 2025, so if someone is still quoting it to you, ask questions.
Maintenance
Our one-time tune-up is $150 and includes a real cleaning of your equipment. An inspection is $79. Maintenance plans start at $15/month and cover an AC visit before cooling season and a furnace visit before heating season.

Our Deerfield location is about 12 miles away. Most service calls are same or next day, and emergencies are answered 24/7.
Are there heat pump rebates in Evanston?
Yes. ComEd offers instant discounts on qualifying heat pumps, and after the discount a heat pump often costs about the same as a straight AC replacement.
My home has radiators. Can I still get air conditioning?
Yes. Ductless mini-splits or a heat pump system can add quiet, efficient cooling without new ductwork, and a heat pump can share the heating load with your boiler.
