Four Seasons Heating & Air Conditioning

What Four Seasons Heating & Air Conditioning does

Four Seasons Heating & Air Conditioning (legal name: Four Seasons Heating, Air Conditioning, Plumbing, Sewer & Electric) is a privately held, full-service residential home-services contractor founded in 1971 and headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, with additional coverage across Chicagoland suburbs and Northwest Indiana. The company operates ten service locations and a 24/7 live customer care center that dispatches NATE-certified technicians in fully stocked vehicles, providing HVAC, plumbing, sewer, electrical, generator, EV charging, and indoor air quality services to homeowners and a smaller commercial customer base. It is recognized as the top Lennox Premier Dealer in the country and is a two-time BBB Torch Award for Ethics recipient (2015 and 2025), with a 4.7/5 average rating across more than 27,600 Google reviews.

The business generates revenue across four primary streams: (1) one-time service and repair fees across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and sewer categories, including 24/7 emergency response; (2) equipment installation revenue, including Lennox-branded furnaces and air conditioners as the marquee product line; (3) recurring preventive maintenance and tune-ups scheduled on an as-needed basis; and (4) customer financing programs offering up to 0% interest for six years, which support higher-ticket equipment purchases. Pricing is predominantly quote-based for services and installations, with promotional fixed pricing on select services such as an $83 drain-cleaning special and discounts of $100 on air duct cleaning and up to $4,000 on new system installations.

The company employs 501–1,000 people and executes a direct-to-consumer go-to-market supplemented by enterprise field sales for commercial accounts, with multi-channel acquisition including paid search, TV, radio, direct mail, community sponsorships, and a formal customer referral program. In November 2022 the company received an institutional investment from The Cortec Group, a private equity firm focused on industrial and business-services companies, signaling an ownership transition and likely growth or add-on acquisition agenda. The operating posture is mature-cash with stable service-revenue economics overlaid with incremental growth into electrified home infrastructure categories (EV charging, smart thermostats, ductless systems, generators).

Broad incumbents

Others

The private-equity-backed franchisor of One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning, Aire Serv, Mr. Rooter, Mr. Handyman, and other home services brands, representing a well-capitalized multi-brand competitor and potential roll-up acquirer that competes for the same residential service dollars in the Chicago metro.
• Lennox International: The HVAC equipment manufacturer whose furnaces and air conditioners Four Seasons installs and sells as the top Lennox Premier Dealer; Lennox supplies the majority of installed equipment and the partnership is a strategic differentiator for Four Seasons' replacement business.
