The 2019 International Builders Show was the biggest (and snowiest) show to-date. Lennox attended the 75th annual event alongside 100,000 homebuilders, manufactures and suppliers to share the latest in home technology products, watch live building demos, and attend a number of networking and social events.
See what the Lennox team took away from this year's event and what you can expect to see trending in 2019:
- Technology Continues to be King – Nearly every exhibit or vendor featured some sort of technology element during the show. Today's home can now be personalized in every way to provide a perfect homeowner experience. From automation to new, innovative controls like iComfort® smart thermostats or the iHarmony® zoning system, keep an eye out for technology that will make your smart home even smarter.
- Going Ductless – Homeowners are looking for new and innovative ways to use all of the spaces in their home, and it's important that they're comfortable in those spaces. Mini-splits are the perfect solution for heating or cooling spaces like garages, add-on rooms, basements, barns and even tiny homes. Lennox offers a variety of mini-split products that provide a smart, flexible solution – learn more about mini-split solutions for the home here.
- Green Living – Energy-efficiency and sustainability continue to be trending topics, and Lennox showcased two low-emissions furnaces at IBS. The SL280NV, the first-in-class and lowest emissions furnace on the market, as well as the newly-released SL297NV. Learn more about these energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly products.
- Indoor Air Quality – In addition to making homes comfortable, making homes breathable and healthy was also a popular topic. Visitors to Lennox' booth were able to see the PureAir™ S air purification system in action. The demo showed how the system combats and removes contaminants from the air. This product, part of the Dave Lennox Signature® Collection, works to clean the air better than any other system you can buy.
