Report
Although the actual, on site, service took much longer than I thought it should have,
once the problem was diagnosed, the repair went quickly. I had a defective main board, the large board the runs everything! I expected that I would be without heat for at least 2 more days while
a new circuit board was sent in from out of state (if one was found)
Not so! My Lennox specialist had one on his truck! He installed the board, ran all the check items and was done! I will use Manwill again.
