Just had a 30 year old Lennox replaced with a new Lennox unit back in December. After the initial sticker shock, I'm totally satisfied. Old unit was also 80% efficient and new one's 96% 2-stage. My installer explained the need for a liner was because the water heater doesn't produce enough heat...

Well, I picked up a jug of 5w-30 Magnatec. Never used it. Always up for trying something new. I also got some Hondabond gasket maker adhesive, because (fun fact) Honda doesn't make an oil pan gasket for this motor. It is glued from the factory. So, as soon as I get around to that little project...
