TUSCOLA, Ill. (Chambana Today) — A local veteran in need will receive a **brand-new furnace—fully installed and free of charge—**thanks to a Veterans Day giveaway from All-Pro Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing LLC, based in Tuscola.

As part of its annual “Veterans Day Giveaway,” All-Pro is asking community members to nominate deserving veterans who could benefit from a new heating system. The giveaway aims to honor those who have served by helping ensure their homes are safe and warm as winter approaches.

Eligible veterans must:

  • Have been discharged under general or honorable conditions

  • Own and reside in the home where the furnace would be installed

  • Live within a 40-mile radius of Tuscola, Illinois

Nominations are due by November 4, 2025, and should include your name, the veteran’s name, and a short explanation of why the nominee deserves to be selected.

How to Submit a Nomination

  • Email: 1allprohvac@gmail.com

  • Mail: 1100 S. Washington St., Tuscola, IL 61953

  • Questions? Call 217-599-1046

The winner will be announced on Veterans Day, November 11, via phone and All-Pro’s Facebook page.

Bonus for All Nominees

Veterans who are nominated but not selected will receive 10% off a new heating system, if purchased by November 30, 2025.

Note: The giveaway covers the cost of the furnace and basic installation. If additional work is required—such as new ductwork, gas lines, chimney liners, or asbestos removal—those upgrades must be completed before the prize is awarded and will be at the winner’s expense.
