"Has been great for 11 years so far"

Very Satisfied

I installed a Lennox hp26-030-7p on 6/29/1998 (14 Seer; single speed)- it replaced a 15 year old Trane that had started failing; my power bill went down by $10 a month immediately, power bill has ever since been always under $100a month in hot/humid North Carolina. No problems whatsoever with this heat pump in 11 years. Had a good installer, reputable company.

Homeowners on consumersaffairs.com comment on their warranty term expiring and costing them expensive repairs for their systems. Frequently breaking parts, system shut downs, and "lemons" are issues mentioned on the thread.
