[the editor]

Would you guys mind answering this poll? I'm doing some off-the-cuff research on the brands that HVAC-Talk.com members carry in their businesses.

Am STD is your favorite??? I just lost all confidence in you!!!







Just kidding, that was our main line until a year ago. We sold hundreds if not thousands of the AUY and AUH2. Good solid equipment, the support has been lacking from our distributor, so when Lennox came looking for another dealer we signed up as a Premier dealer and the support has been vastly superior to the local Am St distributor. Now we sell almost exclusively Lennox.

The poll is not looking so good for Lennox, perhaps Bob needs to edit the poll?

You know something, us Mods have had a blast doing that, but I somehow guess that if I do that to the O/P I might end up banned.

We should sanction him for posting in the wrong forum for starters..........

Lennox is up to 6. All Bob's?

I'da thought ICP would be doing better. Sounds like hvacprodmgr has his work cut out for him.

ing rand has destroyed the support that previously was there for both as and trane. the building in tyler texas that was once full of people is now a ghost town

QUALITY, availability, support, market saturation, brand recognition and incentives. These are some of the factors I consider when beginning a "Branded" dealer.

You left off the Allied brands of Lennox. Armstrong, Ducane, Air Ease, Concord, AireFlo.

Keep the record straight, the Allied Brands of Lennox International.

[BaldLoonie]

Yea, but the line between Lennox products and Allied products are blurring, just like Carrier & ICP. They are even using the same factories. I'm sure Allied will never get the high end of stuff, besides the mod furnace, but... at least it has opened up a non dealer getting affordable Lennox parts.

You beat me to it BL... two of these (bold) are my 'bread and butter' lines now.

Still use R/R for high end stuff.
