Word of Mouth
Comments on HVAC-Talk message boards and heating contractor sites are mixed
regarding the Goodman Furnaces:
- One service tech at HVAC-Talk forums says that his company
has preferred selling Goodman over Lennox for two years. Goodman, like Amana, has had
absolutely no problems whatsoever and is deemed superior over Lennox, which has been known
to be problematic.
- A few people observe that Goodman units have weak control response and
initiation. Even new wire boards, which are expensive, don't bring forth any positive results.
- Yet others at HVAC-Talk have asserted that Goodman is one of the most inferior makes on
the market. The biggest gripe: They don't last very long.
- Another service tech at HVAC-Talk claim that Goodman units generally receive less-than-
enthusiastic support from professionals, but, on the flipside, receive positive reviews from
many buyers in the residential sector.
Warranty
Goodman equipment has a 10-year replacement limited protection on all models, and a lifetime warranty
on the heat exchanger. Note, however, in 2005 a Goodman representative told FurnaceCompare.com that
they WILL NOT BACK their warranty if you buy your furnace online. Double-check on this before you
you buy a Goodman furnace online!
