"Poor quality"
Very disappointed to my Lennox unit. I purchased a CBX27UH last November of 2009. After 3 1/2 years I have to replace the evaporator. I had an old Carrier that came with the house built in 1993 and other than regular yearly maintenance, it lasted till 2009. I purchased this unit due to the Lennox name and reputation. Now, just the labor to replace the part is about 10% of what I paid for the unit. I wonder what the next 13 years will bring, especially once it is out of warranty in another year and a half!

"Not happy"
Problems started just within warranty period. Maybe not!!! Have had to be jump started a couple of times a year since new. I was told this is normal. For the past 6 months have been trying to have the problem fixed with no success. Heat pump shuts down and the furnace fan will keep running for hours cooling the house to about 5 degrees below where the temperature is set. Not very impressed with paying for a new furnace and heat pump when the old one worked better than the new.

"Never shuts off"
Unit never shuts off. Set it at 68 and it goes to 67.5, then blows cold air until back to 67, goes back to heat to 67.5, then cold Air again. Cycle again. Problems started at three years. Company no help. Everything has been replaced at least once. Electric bills have doubled. Any suggestions?

"3ton"
I've had this heat pump about two years and during a routine maintenance the tech found mold growing in the blower. I Did see it, so no problem there but my old Carrier was 20+ years old and never had a mold problem. The reccomendation to correct it was a 600.00 ultra-violet light permanemtly attached. I have had more frequent upper respiratory problems and wonder if the mold ha been the cause. Has anyone else had a mold problem with the heat pump? I was told that this is very common. I contend that it has to do with the design of the heat pump.

"DON'T BUY LENNOX HEAT PUMP"
Do not buy a lennox heat pump...they are crap!! I had to replace a compressor which was out of warranty by a few months and lennox would do absolutely nothing about it! They don't need a customer service department becasue they don't care about customer service!! $2,000 out of my pocket, I'll never buy another lennox product and hope you don't either!!

"Poor installation. The company that installed the outdoor did so incorrectly"
The hp 26-30 Heat pump was installed in 2004. From the outset the unit was unusually noisy & vibrated. The installation technician checked the unit several times as did the company manager. Both advised that the unit was okay. I sent faxes to the Lennox offices in Dallas Texas, they didn't give me the courtesy of a reply. About 2 years later a neighbor was having a heat pump installed, I spoke with the installation tech about my problem. He checked the outdoor unit. His findings included: The outdoor unit was incorrectly installed, the compressor hadn't been balanced, the feet under the unit hadn't been correctly set up, incorrect sizing of copper tubing between the outdoor unit & indoor unit was used. This 'visiting' technician corrected these defects, the unit is now quieter & doesn't vibrate anymore. Cost to correct this sloppy work $480. Given the lack of response from the Lennox head office I doubt I would install any Lennox products in the future.

"Get 10 year parts & Labor warranty"
I got a 3 ton elite I think. It has failed a couple times both I think to loss of refrigerant. Another time the tech who sets up the computer board had to come out and replace it and adjust it. So I have had some down time in the summer mostly with the ac. I sprung for the 10 year parts and labor though and will make sure when it comes to a heat pump I do that in the future. The company who sold and installed it for me is on the hook for the labor so they really do bust their butts to get the thing right. Its been running well since spring and its now December 2012 and it transitioned to heat just fine. There have been more problems than I would have liked if I had to cough up the cash to cover the labor. With the warranty when I call they jump, they are a good company and believe in and back the Lennox units they sell. 10 year parts and labor makes it their problem so they have taken the opportunities when my unit breaks to fix it right. I think they finally have it running well. I give all the credit to the hvac company that did the install and is on the hook to repair it when it breaks. They have taken responsibility and I feel pretty good about they way things have gone.

"Worse purchase of my life"
Had the product installed late 2004. Problems started in 2007. Had 17 repair calls and $5200 of repair bills since. Virtually every part failed, including the compressor. The worse thing is I hardly used it as we cool perhaps 10 days each summer and the heating is limited only during the spring and fall before the furnace takes over at low temperature. In my book, Lennox equates to only problems, expenses and anger.

"PIECE of CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
We purchased this unit in May 2010. On Thanksgiving Day 2012 the unit ran for 4 hours and only brought the temp up 2 degrees. Service tech came and said it was a Manufactures defect the coil was leaking and it took 8 lbs of freon at that time. He ordered a new coil, which he said was under Warranty and it was replaced. I did not expect to pay a cent due to the unit being just over 2 yrs old. When we got a bill for over $500.00 I refused to pay and told him I felt the Manufactuor should foot the bill as it was not my fault the product was defective and they knew it.

"Terrible Reliability"
I bought this heatpump 6 years ago for $9024. From almost day one, it has had problems. I'm presently considering replacing it with another manufacturer's heat pump. It's difficult to know the extent to which the problems are installation-related or equipment related. The installer's service technicians blame the equipment. They tell me that all its energy-saving gizmos result in breakdowns.
