Green Works - Chicago's Reliable Plumbing Contractor

In Chicago homes, a hot water recirculation pump provides instant hot water to faucets and showers, eliminating the wait and conserving water. This is especially valuable during our cold winters and can help reduce energy bills by minimizing the time your water heater runs to reheat standing water in the pipes. Our team at Green Works can assess your plumbing layout and recommend the right system for efficient, on-demand hot water.

As licensed HVAC contractors since 2005, we provide a range of solutions tailored to Chicago's climate and your home's needs. Beyond forced-air systems, we specialize in hydronic (boiler-based) heating, high-efficiency tankless water heaters, and whole-home humidifiers to combat dry winter air. For homeowners interested in sustainable options, we are experienced in installing and servicing residential geothermal systems and solar hot water systems, which can offer significant long-term energy savings.

For bathroom drain buildup, we recommend regular professional drain cleaning as part of a plumbing maintenance plan to prevent slow drains and clogs from hair and soap scum. To prevent outdoor faucet freezing, it's crucial to disconnect hoses in the fall and have a plumber properly winterize the faucet, which may involve installing a frost-free hose bib or ensuring the interior shut-off valve is fully functional. Green Works offers plumbing inspections specifically to identify and address these seasonal vulnerabilities before they cause costly damage.
