Tim was here today to service all four AC units. It takes a long time and endless trips up and down stairs and in and out of house! He was also here recently to help with an evaporator installation for one of the units, which resulted in many hours outside in rain and cold! His work and concentration are amazing! Very pleased with him and his work, and appreciate all the info I learned along the way!read more

Nick and David did an unbelievable job in replacing my spacepak system. Timely, professional and friendly. Highest quality job - exceptional attention to detail. Worked long hours the first day to insure system was cooling before leaving for the day and then returned the next day to balance air flow and recheck everything. Jeff Johnson has also been great through both the sales and installation process quick to follow up and everything. I have never been disappointed with Ravinia service but this experience has been the best by far.read more

Charlie came to my house on October 27, '16. Originally, a different date was scheduled, but Ravinia called to reschedule another day and was very kind to make it close to the original date. Charlie arrived here on time. In fact, he was waiting in my driveway when I got home from work. He was very thorough, very helpful, and is/was always nice to see and talk to. That's why I request that Charlie be the technician to come and do my furnace work. I think that the fees charged are comparable to other companies.read more

Reed arrived on time after calling when he would arrive. He was very polite and informative about what was wrong with the air conditioner and gave me a quote before working on the unit. He also checked the filters and suggested how often we could take care of them to get better air flow from our unit. I will highly recommend your services to friends and use Ravinia for other needs with heating, air conditioning and plumbing.read more

the service man was prompt, courteous, and patient when teaching me how to change the batteries on the thermostat. He was efficient and pleasant. He used coverups on his feet prior to entering any carpeted area. He was thorough and efficient. He cleaned and checked everything so I know that I will be in good shape with the A/C for the summer and fall. I am very pleased.In the fall I will call the office and easily schedule a convenient time for the winter to check & clean the furnace.read more

Saturday at 1:00 I noticed water coming up from the floor drain in the basement, I called Ravinia and was told Ray was on another job, but could be over by 2:00. Needless to say I was thrilled that someone was available so quickly. Within a half hour Ray called me to say he was on his way and would be to my home shortly. When he arrived he was pleasant, remembered being at my house for other service before and he got to work rodding the sewer drain from the street toward the house. We talked while he worked and explained to me that roots are always growing and this maintenance should be done on a regular basis. I truly appreciate the prompt and efficient service on a Saturday afternoon. Thank you Ray and Ravinia Plumbing for being consistently dependable ! Your sincere service is appreciated.read more

I called Ravinia when appliance store technicians, who were installing a new dishwasher, discovered a hose leaking under my kitchen sink. My Ravinia technician, Chuck, arrived within the hour. He was friendly and professional. Chuck gave me the option of letting him try to find parts for my 28 year old faucet or replacing the faucet with a new one. I selected one from his book, someone delivered it within 15 minutes, and Chuck installed it in a short time. Overall, I was very pleased with the experience.read more

Jose Guerra, electrician, completed 3 projects with exceptional service. His advice necessitated a return visit in order install specialty bulbs with greater performance than those sold by a supplier. I am extremely satisfied. Cesar, heating and cooling technician, performed a clean and check on my furnace with noted courtesy and attention to my questions regarding humidity. He has serviced me in the past including when an house emergency occurred. He made arrangements for Ravinia Plumbing to fix the problem which was not within work domain.read more

You guys were easy to work with. I called, made an appointment, both technicians showed up on time. You even called ahead to give me the heads up they would be arriving. That's very helpful for scheduling the day. Friendly, knowledgeable guys. They did the estimates, then the work and away they went. Easy. Thank you.read more

Great service from Kevin H., the service technician. He arrived as scheduled, and did a thorough inspection of our furnaces and thermostats. I appreciated that he covered his shoes with paper booties as he entered my house. He answered my questions about ways to try and save money on my heating bills this winter, & I felt confident with his expert knowledge. He also took the time to explain what is the new Ravinia Plumbing & Heating Family of companies and how my new membership gives me options and benefits. I will absolutely ask for Kevin for the Spring inspection of my air conditioners.read more

We have used Ravinia Plumbing for many years. They have proven themselves competent, reliable and competitive. They have made me feel that we are in the best hands on the north shore. Now, for the past several years we have used them for our heating and air-conditioning needs and electrical services. Each of their technicians that have come to our home are diligent and professional in their work. We joined their club which gives us a 10% discount on all of their services. We couldn't be happier.read more

The person doing the scheduling was on top of things and willing to work with me when I needed some flexibility in the middle of the day with who the plumber would arrive. Kevin is great plumbing professional. He was friendly and courteous. He knew his stuff and systematically problem solved the very slowly draining bathtub which had been a issue for a year. He fixed it. He also quickly took care of a leaking toilet. Also I called on a Sunday an d talked to a live person, got a call from the office on Monday and repair was scheduled for Tuesday. That was fast.read more

Sumps & Pumps

Nobody wants the expense or inconvenience of a flooded basement. That is why having an effective flood prevention system is so important. Since 1928, Ravinia Plumbing & Heating has been a North Shore plumbing contractor that has solved sump pump problems for customers throughout Chicago’s North Shore with our trusted solutions.

Our long-term experience with sump pump drainage and repair services has provided us with a thorough knowledge of pumps, and our experts will point you toward the most reliable systems for keeping your basement dry.

We provide a full line of

Ground water sump pumps
Emergency battery back-up pumps
Sewage ejector pumps
Pump accessories

Sump Pump Drainage Solutions

Compared to cheap pumps found in home centers, our pumps:

Have a greater capacity
Use a fraction of the electricity
Come with a 3 or 4-year manufacturer’s warranty
Include improved switch and alarm features that pinpoint sump pump problems before they become emergencies

To improve the life of your pump, our experts will install a properly sized basin. Used for collecting ground water, this basin must be sized correctly to prevent reduced pump life and sump pump problems like a flooded basement.

To further reduce the likelihood of a flood due to a failed pump, our alternators allow two pumps to act as one. And high water alarms and phone dialers can alert you to a problem wherever you are.

Battery Back Up Pumps

Battery back-up pumps protect your basement in the event of a power failure or primary pump failure, and help if more water enters the basin than the primary pump can handle.

But not all batteries are created equal: our experts match batteries to the pump charger. Although it is possible to hook up any battery to the back-up pump, only an AGM deep-cycle battery properly matched to the manufacturer’s charger will provide increased battery run time and increased overall life.

Like an emergency vehicle, battery back-up pumps must undergo regular, professional maintenance to reduce failures that could result in flooding. Our service specialists will help keep you on schedule, providing better sump pump drainage when you need it most.

“Our basement flooded for the first time in 28 years. Your response was quick and wonderful. You guys rock.”

“The technician who came out to service our outdoor and indoor sump pumps, did a great job. He was very knowledgeable and efficient. Scheduling was also very easy and the whole process was just great.”

"We had an issue with the sump pump for the ejector pit. The technician was sent out almost immediately. The problem was completely solved within 2 hours. Amazing!”

“I recently noticed on a rainy day that I had not heard my sump pump run all day. I quickly called Ravinia and explained that my house is on the market and I had showings later that day. If there's an issue, I said, I would really like to resolve it ASAP. Ravinia had someone out to me within the hour! Thank goodness I called because it turns out that the pump was on its last leg and needed to be replaced.”
