DALLAS — 5 Star HVAC Contractors, a heating and air maintenance and installation company serving Rowlett and other communities in the Dallas, Texas, area, intends to get a deserving Dallas-area resident to “feel the love” with a new Lennox HVAC unit and free installation.
“Lennox will be taking nominations from people across the country who want to give a hometown hero the gift of comfort, and we’d like to see that one of those heroes comes from our service area,” said Jose Vargas, founder and owner of 5 Star, a certified Lennox dealer, in a press release. “Nominations from this area will be sent to us to help Lennox carefully select a deserving recipient. That person and their family will receive a brand-new heating or cooling system free of charge and at no cost for installation.”
The Lennox Feel the Love program, sponsored by the LII Lennox Foundation, donates hundreds of HVAC units to deserving homeowners. Dealers from across 45 states in the U.S. and several Canadian provinces work with Lennox to install the units for the winners during the first full week of October. Nominees can include local heroes facing hard times, neighbors who put others first or who work to make a difference in their communities, veterans, or essential and frontline workers who keep their communities safe and functioning.
Vargas said while the nomination process is nationwide, anyone in the greater Dallas area can nominate a local hero by including 5 Star’s business name and Lennox dealer number — C32613 — on the nomination form.

The nomination process ends Sunday, Aug. 31, and winners will be finalized in September. In addition to the new unit, the deserving recipients will receive premium upgrades from Lennox’s acclaimed Merit Series that include comprehensive protections through Lennox’s Warranty Your Way coverage.
In 2023, Lennox donated nearly 500 HVAC units during its Feel the Love campaign. Since the campaign’s inception in 2009, the program has installed more than 2,700 HVAC systems.
“We want to get the word out about this truly wonderful program,” Vargas said. “We have so many heroes in the Dallas area — teachers, nurses, first responders, police, essential workers and community volunteers — who would be worthy of receiving this HVAC system.”
