HVAC (Furnace) - Who to use?
It doesn't seem like Beyond has a go-to furnce guy (A/C guy, but not furnace). I need some work done in the next week or two and other than going with someone from the radio I don't really know anyone in the business. I would prefer a shop that's a Lennox dealer. Any recommendations from shops you've used and are happy with?

I would skip Lennox and move to Bryant/Payne.
Lennox has dropped in quality over the past 10 years and if you talk to guys that fix furnaces more than half of the time they are working on a Lennox that has failed.
Bryant is also very picky as to which installers they allow to install their product, you won't be getting a random Joe selling you one.

My furnace doesn't need replacing (it's only five years old), just some repairs / maintenance. I would rather have a Lennox guy working on a Lennox furnace, that's all.

Every repair guy is a Lennox guy.Like a yard maintenance guy that works on grass, they all do.

Lennox / Carrier has probably 98% of the furnaces in our homes, hence the amount of work from them. Doesn't mean quality is bad.Originally posted by sputnik

Bryant is build by Carrier. Nearly all brands are built by the same 2 or 3 manufacturers. Same as kitchen appliances.

If you're just looking for furnace maintenance, there's Arpi's or Service Masters. Both are Lennox dealers. I'm sure there's a few others, but those two are the ones that come to mind when Lennox is mentioned.
If you're just looking for a routine furnace maintenance check etc, even most furnace duct cleaning companies have some sort of furnace service package.

Service Experts, they do heating and A/C and are Lennox guys.
Someday we may need to activate the halo structure off Deerfoot and destroy the North East.

Avoid Arpi's.
You start with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.

Anton on here runs Fresh Air Furnace. He'd be a good guy to chat with
