At We Care Plumbing, Heating and Air, aiming to provide unbeatable customer service along with implementing effective heating, air, and plumbing solutions are our top priorities. Our reputation reflects our commitment to homes and businesses throughout Southern California. Due to our success in serving customers, we’re an eight-time winner of the prestigious Dave Lennox Award. While this award is given to outstanding dealers of Lennox heating and air products, it actually means even more.
Who Is Dave Lennox?
In 1895, Dave Lennox founded the furnace manufacturing company that eventually came to be known today as Lennox International. The same year, Lennox worked with Ezra Smith and Ernest Bryant to bring their plans of building a new and improved version of the furnace to life. Cast-iron furnaces of the 19th century were highly susceptible to warping and developing cracks, which could eventually allow smoke and gases from coal to enter the inhabited areas of a home or building. Smith and Bryant’s furnace plans replaced the traditional cast-iron heating surface with riveted steel. Smith and Bryant entered into an agreement with Lennox that called for Lennox to redesign the iron castings that would be used for the new furnace’s grates, fronts, and other parts. Eventually, Smith and Bryant lost their financial backing and were unable to pay Lennox for the castings. Lennox took over the partners’ patents and reworked the steel furnace’s original design and then remarketed the redesigned furnace. Lennox’s redesigned steel furnace became wildly successful, and his contributions to furnace design greatly advanced the furnace in the areas of durability and efficiency. Today, Lennox International celebrates its founding pioneer by recognizing leaders in the HVAC industry with the Dave Lennox award.
Recognizing Elite Lennox Business Partners
Each year, renowned heating and air conditioning product manufacturer Lennox recognizes its most outstanding authorized dealers through its Dave Lennox Award. Winners exemplify the excellence that extends beyond posting high sales numbers.

Why Dealer Awards Matter To You As A Homeowner
It is worth asking why a manufacturer award like the Dave Lennox Award should matter to a homeowner choosing a contractor. The answer comes down to accountability. Lennox does not hand this recognition out based on sales volume alone. Dealers are evaluated on customer satisfaction scores, warranty claim handling, technical training hours completed by staff, and overall business practices. A contractor that repeatedly qualifies for this level of recognition has demonstrated, year after year, that their installations are done correctly and that their customers are satisfied with the outcome. When you are comparing HVAC companies in Southern California, manufacturer-level recognition is one of the few objective signals you can use alongside online reviews and referrals.
How Southern California’s Climate Shapes Our Equipment Recommendations
Homes in Murrieta, San Marcos, and Orange each face a slightly different climate challenge. Inland areas like Murrieta regularly see triple-digit summer heat, which puts heavy strain on compressors and demands properly sized air conditioning installation to avoid short cycling. Coastal and near-coastal communities such as San Marcos deal with higher humidity and salt air, which can accelerate corrosion on outdoor condensing units if they are not maintained. Orange County homes often contend with dust, pollen, and occasional wildfire smoke, making indoor air quality assessment an important part of a complete HVAC plan. Because our technicians service all three regions, we are able to match Lennox equipment and settings to the specific demands of your neighborhood rather than applying a one-size-fits-all recommendation.
Signs It May Be Time To Call A Professional
- Your system is more than 12 to 15 years old and repair costs keep climbing
- Energy bills have crept up without a clear explanation
- Rooms in your home heat or cool unevenly
- You notice unusual noises, odors, or frequent cycling on and off
- It has been more than a year since your last heating maintenance or AC maintenance visit
If any of these sound familiar, scheduling an inspection sooner rather than later can help you avoid an unexpected breakdown during a heat wave or cold snap.
Our Commitment to Energy Efficiency
Businesses and households are increasingly citing energy efficiency among their top concerns regarding their heating and air conditioning systems.
