About Us

A Local HVAC & Plumbing Company Serving Chicago’s North Shore

Choosing a company to handle your heating, cooling, or plumbing is a significant decision. These aren't just mechanical units; they are the backbone of your home’s comfort and safety. Most people simply want a team they can trust to show up on time, communicate clearly, and do the job right the first time. 

That’s the driving force behind Pure Air Heating & Air Conditioning. Our company has been a fixture in the Chicagoland community since 1974, working alongside homeowners and businesses in Glenview and the surrounding suburbs. Today, our team continues that tradition under the leadership of Brett and Jake, childhood best friends born and raised right here in Illinois. Instead of the rigid feel of a distant corporate brand, we focus on local relationships and the kind of follow-through you’d expect from a friend.

A Company Built on Local Roots

Growing up in Illinois means understanding the unique rhythm of the seasons. We know how the winters stretch on with freezing lake-effect winds and how the summer humidity pushes air conditioning to its limit. Our shared background as local homeowners shapes our business model today.

When you call us, you’re connecting with people who understand the specific construction styles and seasonal challenges common to the North Shore. Many of the homes we visit were built decades ago, requiring a nuanced understanding of everything from vintage boiler systems to the latest high-efficiency HVAC equipment. Our goal is to maintain the personal attention of a neighborhood business, keeping the same community-focused approach; the company started with in 1974.

Serving Homes & Businesses Across the North Shore

Every neighborhood in our service area has its own architectural character. We regularly work in communities throughout Glenview, Northbrook, Winnetka, Wilmette, and Highland Park, as well as Deerfield, Lake Forest, Skokie, and Des Plaines. Our team also provides reliable care to neighbors in Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, Mount Prospect, Lincolnshire, Crystal Lake, and the greater Chicago area.

Whether you own a historic property or a modern development, our decades in these communities have provided the hands-on experience needed to navigate any mechanical layout. We understand the specific demands our local climate puts on these diverse homes, and we are ready to help yours stay comfortable year-round.

Comprehensive Care for Our Local Climate

Heating and cooling in Northern Illinois involve dramatic seasonal swings. Because your equipment often runs for months at a time, we provide a full range of HVAC support designed for these heavy-duty conditions. Homeowners across the region rely on us for furnace repairs, air conditioning replacements, radiant heating, and heat pump installations.

We also handle the "unseen" parts of your comfort, such as ductwork repair and thermostat upgrades. Because we know emergencies don't stick to a schedule, we offer 24/7 emergency service and same-day appointments, so you're not left in the cold. To help make larger installations more manageable, we provide financing options and payment plans.

Indoor Air Quality & Plumbing Expansion

As homes have become more tightly sealed for energy efficiency, indoor air quality has become a major priority. We help regulate your home’s environment with whole-home humidifiers, air filtration, and purification systems that remove dust and allergens.

We’ve also brought that same level of commitment to our plumbing division. Many of our customers told us they’d prefer to work with one company they already know rather than calling separate contractors for every issue. From leak detection and hydro jetting to water heater installations and water treatment, we handle the pipes with the same local care we bring to the furnace.
