Lennox is now owned by its public shareholders as Lennox International Inc., which is an independent publicly traded company, not owned by another corporation or parent company. Lennox International was founded in 1895 by Dave Lennox in Marshalltown, Iowa, and is currently headquartered in Richardson, Texas, near Dallas, and is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under ticker symbol LII, meaning it is owned by institutional investors like Vanguard, BlackRock, and other mutual funds, as well as individual investors who buy its stock. There is no single controlling owner or parent corporation that owns Lennox; it is an independent company with about 13,000 employees that makes residential and commercial HVAC equipment including furnaces, air conditioners, and rooftop units. Lennox has remained independent for over 130 years, though it has acquired other companies like Service Experts for HVAC services. Some people confuse Lennox with being owned by Carrier or Trane, but it is independent and competes directly with Carrier, Trane owned by Trane Technologies, Daikin which owns Goodman and Amana, and Johnson Controls which owns York. So Lennox is owned by its public shareholders as an independent American corporation.
