Review:
"Lennox is Awesome!"
Most gripes seen more centered around bad service issues and installation. SLP98V I put 1 in my home, silent operation. 100's installed, yes bad icomforts + 1 out of 25 defective air switches. Lennox resolved, no problems since. Unfortunate that dealers don't bother to train their staff how to troubleshoot and install properly that is the only major problem I see. Excellent engineering by Lennox on these new units.

"1.5 year old, Pressure switches failed, cost $400, Lennox refused to help"
1.5 yr old, pressure switches failed, called Lennox, no backing of the failed product whatsoever, read the fine print, fixing cost over $350+half day off work - very very disappointed.

"My lennox SLP98V furnace"
I've owned my furnace for about six months. It's reliable, quiet, and works well for the most part. It gets pretty cold where I live so having a reliable furnace is important to myself and my other roommates. It's quite efficient and my heating bill last month was as low as it's ever been. It was reduces approximately 10% compared to our older furnace that was replaced last winter. Now that summer is here, our cooling costs have also gone down by the same 10%. It had to undergo one repair because it was not installed correctly, but this was taken care of by the people who installed it within the same week. It sometimes runs a little loudly as well, especially at night when the house is quiet. I would buy this brand again because of its great energy efficiency and overall quality, despite the few issues we had with it.

"Best purchase I have ever made"
I was an installer for lennox for a couple of years and I have now totally changed careers but that is besides the point. My slp98v furnace is the best purchase I have ever made, it runs great and never know its even running. I am a strong believer of lennox products and lennox only because to me they are built the best and lennox I feel is always one step beyond everyone else. now a furnace is much like a new vehicle on the market, if you buy something that is brand new and they havent yet been able to work out any of the kinks in the model you may have problems but that is a risk you must take to get quality and reliability! Best part is if something breaks on a new model and it is to do with a fault, it will be covered by warranty. so dont complain and relax you people.
