I had a Carrier that was pretty decent. I now have a Lennox that I hate. Hate hate hate. It has been a headache from day one. If Carrier still makes a good product, I’ll buy it wherever it is made once this hideous Lennox monster finally fails me completely. Did I mention how much I hate my Lennox heatpump? I hate it! Hate it hate it hate it. I do not know where it was made, btw. But I hate it.
I had a Carrier for over 20 years - I was the only house in the neighborhood that hadn’t replaced mine and the thing wouldn’t die. I finally replaced it to relocate my unit and expand my deck. My Trane is no where as good, but I’ll never get another Carrier - it’s the principle at this point.
Ford Motor Co. as well deserves a national boycott
Ford is on the list too. You probably won’t believe this but I have a 20 year old Saturn with 247K miles on it. Drinks a quart of oil a week, but it still runs.
Whether you support the move or not, anyone who buys a Carrier product made since the announcement is either crazy or stupid.
Or both.
I’ve posted several times that I’d love to see Donald Trump call Gregory Hayes, CEO of UTX, and express his wish that the job transfer decision be reconsidered. Because, Trump can tell him, he’s got a lot of public appearances planned and it would be a shame of Carrier was mentioned in each of them and on national TV every chance he gets, because that could have a negative impact on UTX stock price, which in turn could threaten Mr. Hayes tenure as CEO, and his tens-of-millions-a-year salary.
You know, just give him a little heads-up, CEO to CEO....
Whatever they have planned to save on reduced labor cost in Mexico will pale by comparision to a 1/2% stock value reduction.

Lots of new F 150’s on the road in Florida these days. Made in Mexico. Guess who’s driving them.
Just wait until Trump starts talking about this
I want the good heat-pump, wherever it is made. It is crazy expensive to repair and replace the garbage units some companies are selling.
Are those the aluminum trucks?
When I was in the HVAC game in the 80’s, I saw so many heat pumps here in NW Ohio, I didn’t know what to think, other than they were oversold. Those things are meant for a southern climate that doesen’t get as cold as ir does up here. Oh, well.
It would be a shame if US Customs had to dissemble and inspect each A/C unit for hidden contraband.
Marco Rubio?
ROFLMAO - If Trump were president he could probably order that !
It begins
I’m an HVAC contractor in Texas and I’ll be honest with ya. I think the reason you have so many problems with your HP is because few technicians know how they operate and therefore are lousy and lying repairmen.
We all have to fight back...
Think Trane.
Trane is owned by Ingersoll Rand and has several manufacturing facilities in the USA.
