Costco Uses Local Dealers — Bradford IS the Local Dealer

Bradford vs
Costco
HVAC Installation

Costco's HVAC program uses local Lennox dealers and has a satisfaction guarantee — it's actually a decent program. But Bradford is already local, installs Trane (not Lennox), offers same-day emergency service, and you get Ken Bradford Baker directly — not a Costco dealer assigned to your zip code.

ABOUT COSTCO'S HVAC PROGRAM

Costco's HVAC program is one of the better retail HVAC programs — it uses local Lennox dealers, includes a satisfaction guarantee, and has competitive pricing. However, Costco assigns a dealer to your zip code — you don't choose who installs your system. Bradford is already a local West Valley HVAC company. Bradford installs Trane (not Lennox), offers same-day emergency service that Costco dealers don't, and you get Ken Bradford Baker directly — not whoever Costco assigns to your area. If you're considering Costco, Bradford is worth a free estimate comparison.
