Serving Cherry Valley
Cherry Valley sits southeast of Rockford in the Kishwaukee River valley, near the Interstate 90 and 39 interchange. Most of the village is in Winnebago County, with a small part in Boone County. It has been a village since 1857, and its 19th-century core still has original brick streets, while newer homes spread out toward the interstate and the CherryVale Mall area.
Heating a historic Cherry Valley home
Homes in Cherry Valley’s older core were built long before forced-air furnaces, and most have been converted and reconverted over the decades. That often leaves masonry chimneys, ductwork added after the fact, and heating equipment that has been replaced several times without the ducts or returns being changed to match.
If you are replacing the furnace in one of these homes, ask two questions: will the old chimney be left venting a gas water heater on its own, and is a liner included if so? And has anyone checked whether the return air can actually feed a modern furnace? Our furnace replacement guide covers both.
A village that crosses a county line
About a tenth of Cherry Valley lies in Boone County, and the rest in Winnebago County. Inside village limits, furnace permits typically go through the Village of Cherry Valley, while homes just outside it may fall under county rules instead. Illinois has no state HVAC license, so these local rules are what count.
Ask your contractor who pulls the permit and which office it is filed with before work begins. Newer homes toward the interstate are a different case from the historic core, so mention roughly when your home was built when you call.
