Deal Details
I need to get a new furnace and had a few quotes, I decided juts for grins to check out the Costco deal. Well it turns turns out the price was slightly lower than the other Lennox dealer and I had the 10% Costco rebate. Then I found out the rebate was increased by 50% from 10-15% until May 9th.

This is a good deal if you are looking for a new Furnace or AC unit. Lennox is a quality product in that they make most of their own parts. Does increase some costs as third party parts are scarce but at least you know they will not fail in a month.

My AC and Furnace came out out to just about 12K so I saved 500.00 bucks just waiting a little bit to place my order.

Receive a 15% Costco Shop Card on qualifying Lennox heating & air conditioning. Valid 4/14/21 – 5/9/21.

I did have to buy a thermostat but it was 100 bucks to get back about 600.00. Salesman said if I did not want it they would just give it to me and I could just sell it. Honeywell T6 thermostat.

Is your Lennox a variable speed furnace? If so, I thought you had to purchase a Lennox thermostat, since their variable speed control system was proprietary.

A store rebate.... not sure I need a $1500 to $2000 store rebate. I would have probably approached the bid that was beat by $600 and see if they wanted to match or beat it. An extra 10% discount is not all that unusual that would have been more savings without a store only credit card.

You don't even know what model he has, nothing except what he spent basically. Sending this calc as a "gotcha" is moronic, sorry

My Costco (Prescott AZ) has had this deal for at least 3 years that I know of. Took advantage of it 2 years ago with a new H vac system. They contract with local installers, but in my case it was the installer from hell. Many, many problems.

funny about the comments with people saying it was too much for a 96% 2 stage furnace and a single stage AC.

The local dealer is very large and has good ratings The prices I had for similar units from Rheem were from 12-15K .
110K btu furnace and 16 Seer el16xc1, el296e furnace.

Under $2000 for furnace and $3000 for install
Unless he has 5000 sq ft house which would be $7000
Also Metro matters, if you're in the Bay Area your install costs will be way higher compared to a low COL area.

I saw this deal but went with Trane 2 stage system that was matched up. The Lennox dealer wanted to mix up system parts to try to compete with the Trane system. They couldn't compete with price and level of Trane system I got.

Isn't this true of every variable speed system? Carrier / Bryant has Infinity/Evolution, Trane has TruComfort, etc.

Two-stage systems (I have a Lennox two-stage furnace) will work with most any thermostat, but I thought the true variable stage systems all require a communicating thermostat and each company has their own standards.

Not bosch. Bosch has a controller board on the condenser and will talk through itself so you can essentially use any thermostat you want. We just installed about 9 of these style systems and our installers and techs love them so far

We used this deal last December to replace 2 furnaces and an AC unit. At that time they were offering 20% off but they were just introducing the program in our area so I doubt you'll see better than 15% unless it's new to your area. By using our Costco credit card we also saved the standard Costco cash back discounts, and also got rebate from local utility for high efficiency replacement installations. You may be able to make an argument that you can get a better price with Trane or others, but if you are planning to install Lennox, this deal will be hard to beat.
You do not need to have a Lennox thermostat, but you will need to have a programmable thermostat. In our case, we already planned to upgrade to Nest thermostats, so not an issue. We were also lucky that the installer we had already chosen based on quality experience was the one who made us aware of the program. But of course any install will depend on the quality of the installer.
The only issue we ran into that was probably somewhat unique because we were installing 3 separate units at once, was that the installation total exceeded our Costco credit limit, and you only get the gift card for the amount you charge to their card. So check your limit ahead of the purchase and see if you can get it extended if necessary. We ended up with a $2500 gift card, which I was able to get broken down into multiple smaller gift cards so I did not have to carry $2500 with when I go to the store. It will take awhile to spend, but we shop a fair amount at Costco so we are working through it at a reasonable pace. I was completely satisfied with this deal - we are only 4 months in, but so far have been satisfied with the Lennox equipment.
By the way, at the time we signed up for the program I had misunderstood that the cash card rebate applied only to the hardware cost, but was very pleasantly surprised when we got the cash card and learned it also applied to the installation cost.

Costco services including hvac are usually a ripoff.
The best rated company on yelp gave me a similar system at a price that was 30% less than what the costco/lennox dealer gave me.
I had similar bad experiences with homeowners insurance and life insurance.

Right, that's why I was asking the OP the question, since they purchased a Honeywell instead of a Lennox thermostat.

Lennox parts are also very hard to get. IF that matters to you. Go with Day and Night if you're looking for an value oriented system.
