Millers Area Heating, Inc.

Blower motor on my furnace went out, I was told it would be 149 for the service call he the said to install the blower motor would be 900. I why so much he said cost of the motor and install time plus some bracket he would have to mount it with. What kind of bracket is this? He said I don’t do the pricing. I told him I thought the price was to much he the quoted me 776 dollars they have you over a barrel cause you need heat right. This company are total scammers Don’t use these guys. By the way I looked up the blower motor on line it was $ 120 so yes I got screwed by Miller heating of grayslake and I will tell everyone

How do you Unilocal and HVAC company? They don’t have an in house Chef and I wasn’t offered a side of Foie gras.
However, when I called early in the morning when temps were dipping to sub 30’s and said «I’m the tenant, I’m not paying the bill. My heat is out –help!»
Paula said, «we can have a teammate to you in a few hours. I will call you when he’s 10 minutes out.»
Since I live 12 minutes from home. Perfect
Got my call from the Miller office «our tech is on the way» and was out the door at work.
Arrived to meet Dan ready to go. 15 minutes into the diagnostic — fixed. Bad igniter. Some checking of the PC board and he changed our filter.
No b.s. about a bunch of repairs the home owner would need to deal with, just a great attitude of CAN DO — FOR YOU
Much appreciated «Miller Team». No drama, no rush charge, no «we don’t stock that part.»
Now, if you do ever get an in house Chef, I’m in!

Lazy, dishonest technician. Charged over $ 100 for 5 minutes of service. Didn’t offer to clean the unit since tech was already out there and it was an easy fix. This is second time this happened with Miller. Will never use again.

Had a problem with our furnace this afternoon. Was referred to Millers from a neighbor. They were prompt and the tech was friendly and knowledgeable. He was able to diagnose and fix the problem quickly. Will use them again for sure.

I have not written a Unilocal review in years, but my experience with Miller’s made me want to log back on and share my experiences publicly.
Wow, what a fantastic company to do business with. After another local company came out to diagnose an issue with our furnace, they left after doing a full and thorough analysis of what was going on, skipping something VERY important — a Carbon Monoxide test!
I called Miller’s and spoke with Holly from the office is professional, knowledgeable, and friendly, and made me immediately feel comfortable with working with them.
When Miller’s came to investigate the situation, they first attempted to repair the issue which would have saved us thousands of dollars. After the repair, Miller’s technician did the proper follow-​up testing and found CO (Carbon Monoxide) levels WAY, WAY above the acceptable levels.
I learned that normally, CO levels are basically zero (Parts Per Million), but are acceptable at around 20 PPM. They typically shut a furnace down if the levels reach 100 PPM. When Miller’s tech did the testing, ours was shooting off CO at a level of 1500 PPM! 15 times the limit of where they normally shut down a furnace! In our case, these CO levels were all being vented outside the house, so we didn’t have these deadly levels inside the home, but any Furnace leaking these amounts of CO needs to be shut down IMMEDIATELY, which is exactly what we did.
Thank heavens that Miller’s technician did the job the RIGHT way, or my family could have been in incredible danger. Their installer, Mike, was also great. Extremely personable, professional, and stayed way longer than normal to make sure the job was done right.
I will never look anywhere else than Miller’s for my heating and cooling — they have won a customer for life!
