WARNING  
2 ꢀ Isolation grommets for liquid and suction lines  
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or  
maintenance can cause personal injury, loss of life, or  
damage to property.  
Using Manifold Gauge Set  
When checking the system charge, only use a manifold  
gauge set that features low−loss anti−blow back fittings.  
Installation and service must be performed by a licensed  
professional installer (or equivalent) or a service agency.  
IMPORTANT  
To prevent stripping of the various caps used, the  
appropriately sized wrench should be used and fitted  
snugly over the cap before tightening.  
CAUTION  
Physical contact with metal edges and corners while  
applying excessive force or rapid motion can result in  
personal injury. Be aware of, and use caution when  
working near these areas during installation or while  
servicing this equipment.  
Manifold gauge set used with HFC−410A refrigerant  
systems must be capable of handling higher system  
operating pressures. The gauges should be rated for use  
with pressures of 0 − 800 psig on the high side and a low  
side of 30" vacuum to 250 psig with dampened speed to  
500 psi. Gauge hoses must be rated for use at or up to 800  
psig of pressure with a 4000 psig burst rating.  
IMPORTANT  
The Clean Air Act of 1990 bans the intentional venting of  
refrigerant (CFCs, HCFCs AND HFCs) as of July 1,  
1992. Approved methods of recovery, recycling or  
reclaiming must be followed. Fines and/or incarceration  
may be levied for noncompliance.

Operating Service Valves  
The liquid and vapor line service valves are used for  
removing refrigerant, flushing, leak testing, evacuating,  
verifying charge and charging.  
Line voltage is present at all components  
when unit is not in operation on units with  
single-pole contactors. Disconnect all  
remote electric power supplies before  
opening access panel. Unit may have  
multiple power supplies.  
Each valve is equipped with a service port which has a  
factory−installed valve stem. Figure 2 provides information  
on how to access and operating both angle and ball service  
valves.  
IMPORTANT  
This model is designed for use in check expansion valve  
systems only. An indoor expansion valve approved for  
use with HFC−410A refrigerant must be ordered  
separately, and installed prior to operating the system.  
IMPORTANT  
Only use Allen wrenches of sufficient hardness (50Rc −  
Rockwell Harness Scale minimum). Fully insert the  
wrench into the valve stem recess.  
Service valve stems are factory−torqued (from 9 ft−lbs for  
small valves, to 25 ft−lbs for large valves) to prevent  
refrigerant loss during shipping and handling. Using an  
Allen wrench rated at less than 50Rc risks rounding or  
breaking off the wrench, or stripping the valve stem  
recess.  
Shipping and Packing List  
Check unit for shipping damage. Consult last carrier  
immediately if damage is found.

IMPORTANT ꢀ Some system configurations may contain higher than normal refrigerant charge due to either large internal coil volumes, and/or  
long line sets.  
METHOD 1:  
Us this method if the existing outdoor unit is not equipped with shut−off valves, or if the unit is not operational and you plan to use the existing  
HCFC−22 to flush the system.  
Remove all HCFC−22 refrigerant from the existing system. Check gauges after shutdown to confirm that the entire system is completely void of  
refrigerant.  
METHOD 2:  
Use this method if the existing outdoor unit is equipped with manual shut−off valves, and you plan to use new HCFC−22 refrigerant to flush the  
system.  
The following devices could prevent full system charge recovery into the outdoor unit:  
S
S
S
Outdoor unit’s high or low−pressure switches (if applicable) when tripped can cycle the compressor OFF.  
Compressor can stop pumping due to tripped internal pressure relief valve.  
Compressor has internal vacuum protection that is designed to unload the scrolls (compressor stops pumping) when the pressure ratio meets  
a certain value or when the suction pressure is as high as 20 psig. (Compressor suction pressures should never be allowed to go into a vacuum.  
Prolonged operation at low suction pressures will result in overheating of the scrolls and permanent damage to the scroll tips, drive bearings and  
internal seals.)  
Once the compressor can not pump down to a lower pressure due to one of the above system conditions, shut off the vapor valve. Turn OFF the  
main power to unit and use a recovery machine to recover any refrigerant left in the indoor coil and line set.  
Perform the following task:  
A
B
Start the existing HCFC−22 system in the cooling mode and close the liquid line valve.  
Use the compressor to pump as much of the existing HCFC−22 refrigerant into the outdoor unit until the outdoor system is full (high pressure  
switch will trip and shut the compressor off). Turn the outdoor unit main power OFF and use a recovery machine to remove the remaining refriger-  
ant from the system.  
NOTE ꢀ It may be necessary to bypass the low pressure switch (if equipped) to ensure complete refrigerant evacuation.  
C
D
When the low side system pressures reach 0 psig, close the vapor line valve.  
Check gauges after shutdown to confirm that the valves are not allowing refrigerant to flow back into the low side of the system.

PLACING UNIT ON SLAB  
Unit Placement  
When installing unit at grade level, the top of the slab  
should be high enough above grade so that water from  
higher ground will not collect around the unit. The slab  
should have a slope tolerance as described in figure 5,  
detail B.  
CAUTION  
In order to avoid injury, take proper precaution when lift-  
ing heavy objects.  
NOTE ꢀ If necessary for stability, anchor unit to slab as  
described in figure 5, detail D.  
ELEVATING THE UNIT  
See Unit Dimensions on page 3 for sizing mounting slab,  
platforms or supports. Refer to figure 4 for mandatory  
installation clearance requirements.  
Units are outfitted with elongated support feet as illustrated  
If additional elevation is necessary, raise the unit by  
extending the height of the unit support feet. This may be  
achieved by using a 2 inch (50.8mm) Schedule 40 female  
threaded adapter.  
POSITIONING CONSIDERATIONS  
Consider the following when positioning the unit:  
S
Some localities are adopting sound ordinances based  
on the unit’s sound level registered from the adjacent  
property, not from the installation property. Install the  
unit as far as possible from the property line.  
The specified coupling will fit snuggly into the recessed  
portion of the feet. Use additional 2−inch (50.8mm)  
Schedule 40 male threaded adaptors which can be  
threaded into the female threaded adaptors to make  
additional adjustments to the level of the unit.  
S
When possible, do not install the unit directly outside  
a window. Glass has a very high level of sound  
transmission. For proper placement of unit in relation  
to a window see the provided illustration in figure 5,  
detail A.  
NOTE ꢀ Keep the height of extenders short enough to  
ensure a sturdy installation. If it is necessary to extend  
further, consider a different type of field−fabricated  
framework that is sturdy enough for greater heights.

STABILIZING UNIT ON UNEVEN SURFACES  
IMPORTANT  
Unit Stabilizer Bracket Use (field−provided):  
NOTICE  
Roof Damage!  
This system contains both refrigerant and oil. Some  
rubber roofing material may absorbed oil and cause the  
rubber to swell when it comes into contact with oil. The  
rubber will then bubble and could cause leaks. Protect  
the roof surface to avoid exposure to refrigerant and oil  
during service and installation. Failure to follow this  
notice could result in damage to roof surface.  
Always use stabilizers when unit is raised above the  
factory height. (Elevated units could become unstable in  
gusty wind conditions).  
Stabilizers may be used on factory height units when  
mounted on unstable an uneven surface.  
1. Remove two side louvered panels to expose the unit  
base.  
Removing and Installing Panels  
2. Install the brackets as illustrated in figure 5, detail D  
using conventional practices.  
IMPORTANT  
Do not allow panels to hang on unit by top tab. Tab is for  
alignment and not designed to support weight of panel.  
3. Replace the panels after installation is complete.  
ROOF MOUNTING  
Install the unit a minimum of six inches (152 mm) above the  
roof surface to avoid ice build−up around the unit. Locate  
the unit above a load bearing wall or area of the roof that  
can adequately support the unit. Consult local codes for  
rooftop applications.  
IMPORTANT  
To help stabilize an outdoor unit, some installations may  
require strapping the unit to the pad using brackets and  
anchors commonly available in the marketplace.  
If unit coil cannot be mounted away from prevailing winter  
winds, a wind barrier should be constructed. Size barrier at  
least the same height and width as outdoor unit. Mount  
barrier 24 inches (610 mm) from the sides of the unit in the  
direction of prevailing winds.  
WARNING  
To prevent personal injury, or damage to panels, unit or  
structure, be sure to observe the following:  
PREVAILING WINTER  
WINDS  
While installing or servicing this unit, carefully stow all  
removed panels out of the way, so that the panels will not  
cause injury to personnel, nor cause damage to objects  
or structures nearby, nor will the panels be subjected to  
damage (e.g., being bent or scratched).

Lennox highly recommends changing line set when  
converting the existing system from HCFC−22 to  
HFC−410A. If that is not possible and the line set is the  
proper size as reference in Table 2, use the procedure  
outlined under Flushing the System on page 13.  
NOTE ꢀ When installing refrigerant lines longer than 50  
feet, see the Lennox Refrigerant Piping Design and  
Fabrication Guidelines, or contact Lennox Technical  
Support Product Applications for assistance. :  
To obtain the correct information from Lennox, be sure to  
communicate the following information:  
If refrigerant lines are routed through a wall, then seal and  
isolate the opening so vibration is not transmitted to the  
building. Pay close attention to line set isolation during  
installation of any HVAC system. When properly isolated  
from building structures (walls, ceilings. floors), the  
refrigerant lines will not create unnecessary vibration and  
subsequent sounds. See figure 8 for recommended  
installation practices. Also, consider the following when  
placing and installing a high−efficiency outdoor unit.  
S
S
Model (XP17) and size of unit (e.g. −036).  
Line set diameters for the unit being installed as listed  
in table 2 and total length of installation.  
S
Number of elbows vertical rise or drop in the piping.  
The compressor is charged with sufficient Polyol ester oil  
for line set lengths up to 50 feet. Recommend adding oil to  
system based on the amount of refrigerant charge in the  
system. No need to add oil in system with 20 pounds of  
refrigerant or less. For systems over 20 pounds − add one  
ounce of every five pounds of refrigerant.  
Recommended topping−off POE oils are Mobil EAL  
ARCTIC 22 CC or ICI EMKARATEt RL32CF.  
IMPORTANT  
Refrigerant lines must not contact structure.  
WARNING  
Polyol Ester (POE) oils used with HFC−410A  
refrigerant absorb moisture very quickly. It is very  
important that the refrigerant system be kept closed  
as much as possible. DO NOT remove line set caps  
or service valve stub caps until you are ready to make  
connections.  
Liquid lines that meter the refrigerant, such as RFC1 liquid  
lines, must not be used in this application. Existing line set  
of proper size as listed in table 2 may be reused. If system  
was previously charged with HCFC−22 refrigerant, then  
existing line set must be flushed (see Flushing the System  
on page 16).  
Field refrigerant piping consists of liquid and vapor lines  
from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit coil (braze  
connections). Use Lennox L15 (sweat, non−flare) series  
line set, or field−fabricated refrigerant line sizes as listed in  
table 2.  
IMPORTANT  
Mineral oils are not compatible with HFC−410A. If oil  
must be added, it must be a Polyol ester oil.

line set connections to service valves.  
WARNING  
Danger of fire. Bleeding the refrigerant  
charge from only the high side may result  
in pressurization of the low side shell and  
suction tubing. Application of a brazing  
torch to a pressurized system may result  
in ignition of the refrigerant and oil  
mixture − Check the high and low  
pressures before applying heat.  
IMPORTANT  
Allow braze joint to cool before removing the wet rag  
from the service valve. Temperatures above 250ºF can  
damage valve seals.  
IMPORTANT  
Use silver alloy brazing rods with 5% minimum silver  
alloy for copper−to−copper brazing. Use 45% minimum  
alloy for copper−to−brass and copper−to−steel brazing.  
WARNING  
When using a high pressure gas such as  
dry nitrogen to pressurize a refrigeration  
or air conditioning system, use a  
regulator that can control the pressure  
down to 1 or 2 psig (6.9 to 13.8 kPa).  
WARNING  
Fire, Explosion and Personal Safety  
Hazard.  
CAUTION  
Brazing alloys and flux contain materials which are  
hazardous to your health.  
Failure to follow this warning could  
result in damage, personal injury or  
death.  
Avoid breathing vapors or fumes from brazing  
operations. Perform operations only in well−ventilated  
areas.  
Never use oxygen to pressurize or  
purge refrigeration lines. Oxygen,  
when exposed to a spark or open  
flame, can cause fire and/or an ex-  
plosion, that could result in property  
damage, personal injury or death.  
Wear gloves and protective goggles or face shield to  
protect against burns.  
Wash hands with soap and water after handling brazing  
alloys and flux.

Installing Indoor Expansion Valve  
This outdoor unit is designed for use in systems that use check expansion valve metering device. See the Lennox XP17  
Engineering Handbook for approved check expansion valve kit match−ups and application information. The check  
expansion valve unit can be installed internal or external to the indoor coil. In applications where an uncased coil is being  
installed in a field−provided plenum, install the check expansion valve in a manner that will provide access for field servicing  
of the check expansion valve. Refer to below illustration for reference during installation of check expansion valve unit.

Leak Test Line Set and Indoor Coil  
IMPORTANT  
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) prohibits  
the intentional venting of HFC refrigerants during  
maintenance, service, repair and disposal of appliance.  
Approved methods of recovery, recycling or reclaiming  
must be followed.  
IMPORTANT  
Leak detector must be capable of sensing HFC  
refrigerant.  
IMPORTANT  
WARNING  
When using a high pressure gas such as  
dry nitrogen to pressurize a refrigeration  
or air conditioning system, use a  
regulator that can control the pressure  
down to 1 or 2 psig (6.9 to 13.8 kPa).  
If this unit is being matched with an approved line set  
or indoor unit coil which was previously charged with  
mineral oil, or if it is being matched with a coil which  
was manufactured before January of 1999, the coil  
and line set must be flushed prior to installation. Take  
care to empty all existing traps. Polyol ester (POE) oils  
are used in Lennox units charged with HFC−410A  
refrigerant. Residual mineral oil can act as an  
insulator, preventing proper heat transfer. It can also  
clog the expansion device, and reduce the system  
performance and capacity.  
WARNING  
Refrigerant can be harmful if it is inhaled. Refrigerant  
must be used and recovered responsibly.  
Failure to properly flush the system per the  
instructions below will void the warranty.  
Failure to follow this warning may result in personal injury  
or death.

TEST FOR LEAKS  
After the line set has been connected to the indoor and outdoor units, check the line set connections and indoor unit for leaks. Use the  
following procedure to test for leaks:  
2
A
With both manifold valves closed, connect the cylinder of HFC−410A refrigerant to the center port of the manifold gauge set. Open the valve  
on the HFC−410A cylinder (vapor only).  
B
Open the high pressure side of the manifold to allow HFC−410A into the line set and indoor unit. Weigh in a trace amount of HFC−410A. [A  
trace amount is a maximum of two ounces (57 g) refrigerant or three pounds (31 kPa) pressure]. Close the valve on the HFC−410A cylinder  
and the valve on the high pressure side of the manifold gauge set. Disconnect the HFC−410A cylinder.  
C
D
Connect a cylinder of dry nitrogen with a pressure regulating valve to the center port of the manifold gauge set.  
Adjust dry nitrogen pressure to 150 psig (1034 kPa). Open the valve on the high side of the manifold gauge set in order to pressurize the line set  
and the indoor unit.  
E
F
After a few minutes, open one of the service valve ports and verify that the refrigerant added to the system earlier is measurable with a leak  
detector.  
After leak testing disconnect gauges from service ports.

Operating and Temperature Pressures  
Minor variations in these pressures may be expected due to differences in installations. Significant differences could mean  
that the system is not properly charged or that a problem exists with some component in the system. The normal operating  
pressures listed here are also located on the unit charging sticker located on the unit access panel.  
Table 10. Normal Operating Pressure − Liquid +10 and Vapor +5 PSIG*  
Use this table to perform maintenance checks; it is not a procedure for charging the  
system. Minor variations in these pressures may be due to differences in installations.  
Significant deviations could mean that the system is not properly charged or that a

COMPRESSOR PROTECTION ꢀ FIVE−STRIKE  
LOCKOUT SAFETY FUNCTION  
System Operations  
The five−strike lockout safety function is designed to  
protect the unit’s compressor from damage. The five−strike  
feature is used for high pressure (S4) and low (S87)  
pressure switch trips and W input fault or miswire.  
IMPORTANT  
Some scroll compressor have internal vacuum protector  
that will unload scrolls when suction pressure goes  
below 20 psig. A hissing sound will be heard when the  
compressor is running unloaded. Protector will reset  
when low pressure in system is raised above 40 psig. DO  
NOT REPLACE COMPRESSOR.  
Resetting Five−Strike Lockout  
Once the condition has been rectified, power to the heat  
pump control’s R terminal must be cycled OFF, or a jumper  
placed on the FIELD TEST pins between 1− to 2−seconds  
to reset the heat pump control.  
The heat pump control (A175) provides the following  
functions:  
Defrost System  
The heat pump control (A175) measures differential  
temperatures to detect when the system is performing  
poorly because of ice build−up on the outdoor coil. The  
controller self−calibrates (see figure 26) when the defrost  
system starts and after each system defrost cycle. The  
heat pump control monitors ambient temperature, outdoor  
coil temperature, and total run−time to determine when a  
defrost cycle is required. The coil temperature sensor is  
designed with a spring clip to allow mounting to the outside  
coil tubing. The location of the coil sensor is important for  
proper defrost operation (see figure 1 for location of coil  
sensor).

NOTE − The heat pump control accurately measures the  
performance of the system as frost accumulates on the  
outdoor coil. This typically will translate into longer running  
time between defrost cycles as more frost accumulates on  
the outdoor coil before the heat pump control initiates  
defrost cycles.

DEFROST OPERATING MODES  
The heat pump control board has three operational modes  
which are:  
In non−communicating systems the delay is set for 300  
seconds (five minutes) and can not be changed. To  
override timer when active or inactive, place a jumper on  
the field test pins between 1 and 2 seconds.  
S
S
®
In communicating system, the icomfort Touch thermostat  
has a separate built−in 5−minute non−adjustable short cycle  
protection.  
DEFROST TERMINATION TEMPERATURES (E47)  
The heat pump control selections are: 50, 70, 90, and  
100°F (10, 21, 32 and 38°C). The jumper termination pin is  
factory set at 50°F (10°C).  
Resetting Anti−Short Cycle Delay  
The FIELD TEST pins (E33) on the heat pump control can  
be jumpered between 1 to 2 seconds to bypass delay.  
If the temperature jumper is not installed, the default  
termination temperature is 90°F (32°C). See figure 26 for  
on how this settings affects defrost calibration and defrost  
modes.  
HIGH (S4) AND LOW (S87) PRESSURE SWITCHES  
The unit’s pressure switches (LO PS − S87 and HI PS − S4)  
are factory−wired into the heat pump control on the LO−PS  
and HI−PS terminals, respectively.  
NOTE − Colder climates could require a high discharge  
termination temperature setting to maintain a clear coil.

UNIT SENSORS  
Sensors connect to the heat pump control through a  
field-replaceable harness assembly that plugs into the  
control. Through the sensors, the heat pump control  
detects outdoor ambient and coil temperature fault  
conditions. As the detected temperature changes, the  
resistance across the sensor changes. table 13 shows  
how the resistance varies as the temperature changes for  
both type of sensors. Sensor resistance values can be  
checked by ohming across pins shown in table 12.

NOTE ꢀ When checking the ohms across a sensor, be  
aware that a sensor showing a resistance value that is not  
within the range shown in table 12, may be performing as  
designed. However, if a shorted or open circuit is detected,  
then the sensor may be faulty and the sensor harness will  
need to be replaced.

See table 12 for sensor range. If the ambient sensor is  
detected as being open, shorted or out of the temperature  
range of the sensor, the heat pump control will not perform  
demand defrost operation. The heat pump control will  
revert to time/temperature defrost operation and will  
display the appropriate alert code. Heating and cooling  
operation will be allowed in this fault condition.  
W Input Fault or Miswire  
In case of a W input fault or possible miswire, the system  
will function as listed in the sequence of operation in figure  
30.  
Shift Delay (E37)  
The heat pump control has a field−selectable function to  
reduce occasional sounds that may occur while the unit is  
cycling in and out of the defrost mode. When a jumper is  
installed on the DELAY pins (E37), the compressor will be  
cycled off for 30 seconds going in and out of the defrost  
mode. Units are shipped with jumper installed on DELAY  
pins.  
Coil Temperature Sensor (RT21)  
open, shorted or out of the temperature range of the  
sensor, the heat pump control will not perform demand or  
time/temperature defrost operation and will display the  
appropriate fault code. Heating and cooling operation will  
be allowed in this fault condition.

Defrost Calibration  
Heat pump control monitors mode of  
operation through outdoor ambient  
temperature (RT13), outdoor coil  
temperature(RT21) and compressor  
run−time to determine when a defrost  
cycle is required.  
Coil sensor (RT21) detects temperature below 35°F {2°C}  
during either initial power−up, after loss of power or after  
cooling mode, a sacrificial defrost will be used to ensure there  
is a clear coil before attempting calibration.  
NOTE ꢀ No system alert codes can

disables the defrost mode for 30−34 minutes in  
order to avoid unnecessary defrosts. Beyond  
this timing period, both the ambient (RT13) and  
coil (RT21) sensors are continuously moni-  
tored. If the coil temperature is below 35°F (2°C)  
and the calibration delta is reached or accumu-  
lated compressor run−time is more than six (6)  
hours, a defrost is to be initiated.

MULTI−FUNCTION TEST PINS (E33)  
PSlacing the jumper on the field test pins (E33) using a specific sequence allows the technician to:  
Clear short cycle lockout

Clear five−strike fault lockout  
Cycle the unit in and out of defrost mode  
Manually place the unit in defrost mode to clear the coil  
WhenY1 is energized and 24V power is being applied to the heat pump control (A175), a test cycle can be initiated by placing a jumper on the heat pump  
control’s TEST pins for 2 to 5 seconds. If the jumper remains on the TEST pins (E33) for longer than five seconds, the heat pump control will ignore the  
jumperedTEST pins and revert to normal operation.  
The heat pump control will initiate one test event each time a jumper is placed on the TEST pins. For each TEST the jumper must be removed for  
at least one second and then reapplied.  
Y1 Active  
Place a jumper on TEST pins for  
longer than one second but less  
than two seconds.  
Place a jumper on TEST pins for  
more than two seconds.

System Status, Fault and Lockout LED  
Codes  
IMPORTANT  
DS15 and DS13 compressor LED fault and lockout  
codes do not provide safety protection. The is a  
monitoring function only and cannot control or shut down  
other devices.  
LED codes are displayed using various LEDs located on  
the heat pump control (A175). See figure 16 for locations of  
heat pump control LEDs.  
DS11 AND DS14 ꢀ SYSTEM STATUS, FAULT AND  
LOCKOUT LED CODES  
RESETTING FAULT AND LOCKOUT LED CODES  
DS11 (Green) and DS14 (Red) LEDs indicate  
non−communicatingmodediagnosticsconditionsthatare  
listed in table 14.  
All LED fault and lockout codes can be reset manually or  
automatically:  
These LEDs display the most common fault conditions in  
the system. When an abnormal condition is detected, this  
function communicates the specific condition through  
system LED alert codes The function is capable of  
detecting both mechanical and electrical system  
problems.  
1. Manual Reset  
Manual reset can be achieve by one of the following  
methods:  
S
DisconnectingR wire from the heat pump control’s  
R terminal.  
DS15 AND DS13 ꢀ COMPRESSOR FAULT AND  
LOCKOUT LED CODES  
S
Turning the indoor unit off an on again  
DS15 (Yellow) and DS13 (Red) LEDs indicate  
non−communicatingmodediagnosticsconditionsthatare  
listed in table 15.  
After power up, existing code will display for 60  
seconds and then clear.  
These LEDs display the most common fault conditions in  
the system. When an abnormal condition is detected, this  
function communicates the specific condition through  
system LED alert codes The function is capable of  
detecting both mechanical and electrical system  
problems.  
2. Automatic Reset  
After a fault or lockout is detected, the heat pump  
control continues to monitor the unit’s system and  
compressor operations. When/if conditions return to  
normal, the alert code is turned off automatically.

3. The fan motor speed / RPM (revolutions per minute)  
indicator is displayed next (see table 16).  
FAN MOTOR (B4) TEST PROCEDURE  
4. There is a short pause.  
The following procedure can be used to test the fan  
motor operation. A fully charged 9V battery will be  
required for this procedure. See figure 31 for complete  
test procedure.  
The above sequence will continue to repeat if a thermostat  
demand is present. See figure 32 for LED sequence and  
table 18 for description of flash and pause durations.  
This is a test that will verify that the motor does operate.  
1. Verify main (240 volt) power if OFF to unit.  
2. Remove both wires (brown and black) from the J2 terminal on the fan motor  
control (A177).  
3. Room thermostat should be in OFF position (unit in idle mode − no heating or  
cooling demands)  
4. Turn main power (240 volt) ON to unit.  
5. Connect 9 Volt battery to fan motor plugs as noted in picture below.  
6. Fan motor should run at a reduced fan speed.  
7. If fan motor does not run, then replace fan motor assembly.

present during a thermostat demand. See figure 35 for test  
example.  
Testing  
Use the following subsections to verify and test the fan  
motor control (A177).  
If correct voltages are detected at applicable inputs during  
a demand, and no voltage is present at the J2 terminals,  
then fan motor control should be replaced.  
Verifying Jumper Settings (J2)  
The unit is shipped from the factory with the default fan  
motor speed setting (in RPMs) required for each specific  
model. Use the table 16 verify that jumpers are set  
correctly for the specific unit.

TOP GRILLE OR FAN MOTOR MOUNT ADJUSTMENT FOR FAN CLEARANCE  
Sometimes during shipping, either the fan motor mounting or top grille may become out of alignment. This may cause the fan  
motor blade to not clear the orifice ring. If this situation occurs, simply adjust either or both the fan motor mount or top grille  
positions to allow proper clearance. The top grille four fastener insertion points to the plastic top and motor mount locations are  
larger than the fasteners used to secure the grille and fan motor mounts. Use the procedures provided in figure 33 to adjust for fan  
clearance.

this is also true for the four fasteners securing the fan motor to  
the top grille. To provide more clearance, preform either or both  
of the following procedures.

Outdoor Coil ꢀ The outdoor coil may be flushed with  
a water hose.  
Maintenance  
Outdoor Coil (sea coast) ꢀ Moist air in ocean  
locations can carry salt, which is corrosive to most  
metal. Units that are located near the ocean require  
frequent inspections and maintenance. These  
inspections will determine the necessary need to wash  
the unit including the outdoor coil. Consult your  
installing contractor for proper intervals/procedures  
for your geographic area or service contract.  
WARNING  
This product and/or the indoor unit it is matched with may  
contain fiberglass wool.  
Disturbing  
the  
insulation  
during  
installation,  
maintenance, or repair will expose you to fiberglass wool  
dust. Breathing this may cause lung cancer. (Fiberglass  
wool is known to the State of California to cause cancer.)  
Indoor Unit  
Fiberglass wool may also cause respiratory, skin, and  
eye irritation.  
1. Clean or change filters.  
2. Lennox blower motors are prelubricated and  
permanently sealed. No more lubrication is needed.  
To reduce exposure to this substance or for further  
information, consult material safety data sheets  
available from address shown below, or contact your  
supervisor.  
3. Adjust blower speed for cooling. Measure the pressure  
drop over the coil to determine the correct blower CFM.  
Refer to the unit information service manual for pressure  
drop tables and procedure.

5. Check all wiring for loose connections.  
6. Check for correct voltage at unit. (blower operating)  
7. Check amp draw on blower motor.  
Outdoor Unit  
Maintenance and service must be performed by a qualified  
installer or service agency. At the beginning of each  
cooling season, the system should be checked as follows:  
Motor Nameplate:_________ Actual:__________.  
Indoor Coil  
1. Clean and inspect outdoor coil (may be flushed with a  
water hose). Ensure power is off before cleaning.  
1. Clean coil if necessary.  
2. Check connecting lines, joints and coil for evidence of  
oil leaks.  
2. Outdoor unit fan motor is pre−lubricated and sealed.  
No further lubrication is needed.  
3. Check condensate line and clean if necessary.  
3. Visually inspect all connecting lines, joints and coils for  
evidence of oil leaks.  
Locations with Possibility of Heavy Snow or  
Freezing Rain Accumulation  
4. Check all wiring for loose connections.  
Heavy snow and/or freezing rain can interfere with the  
performance of the outdoor fan assembly. Lennox  
recommends use of the optional snow guard (X8782) in  
these areas.  
5. Check for correct voltage at unit (unit operating).  
6. Check amp draw on outdoor fan motor.  
Motor Nameplate:_________ Actual:__________.  
7. Inspect drain holes in coil compartment base and  
clean if necessary.  
NOTE - If insufficient heating or cooling occurs, the unit  
should be gauged and refrigerant charge should be  
checked.  
Outdoor Coil  
It may be necessary to flush the outdoor coil more  
frequently if it is exposed to substances which are  
corrosive or which block airflow across the coil (e.g., pet  
urine, cottonwood seeds, fertilizers, fluids that may contain  
high levels of corrosive chemicals such as salts)

formed as your system removes humidity from the  
inside air. Have your dealer show you the location of  
the drain line and how to check for obstructions. (This  
would also apply to an auxiliary drain, if installed.)  
HOMEOWNER  
Cleaning of the outdoor unit’s coil should be performed by  
a trained service technician. Contact your dealer and set  
up a schedule (preferably twice a year, but at least once a  
year) to inspect and service your outdoor unit. The  
following maintenance may be performed by the  
homeowner.  
Thermostat Operation  
®
See the ComfortSense 7000 thermostat homeowner  
manual for instructions on how to operate your thermostat.  
Heat Pump Operation  
Your new Lennox heat pump has several characteristics  
that you should be aware of:  
IMPORTANT  
Sprinklers and soaker hoses should not be installed  
where they could cause prolonged exposure to the  
outdoor unit by treated water. Prolonged exposure of the  
unit to treated water (i.e., sprinkler systems, soakers,  
waste water, etc.) will corrode the surface of steel and  
aluminum parts and diminish performance and longevity  
of the unit.  
S
Heat pumps satisfy heating demand by delivering  
large amounts of warm air into the living space. This  
is quite different from gas- or oil-fired furnaces or an  
electric furnace which deliver lower volumes of  
considerably hotter air to heat the space.  
S
Do not be alarmed if you notice frost on the outdoor coil  
in the winter months. Frost develops on the outdoor  
coil during the heating cycle when temperatures are  
below 45F (7C). The heat pump control activates a  
defrost cycle lasting 5 to 15 minutes at preset intervals  
to clear the outdoor coil of the frost.  
Outdoor Coil  
The outdoor unit must be properly maintained to ensure its  
proper operation.  
S
S
S
Please contact your dealer to schedule proper  
inspection and maintenance for your equipment.  
S
During the defrost cycle, you may notice steam rising  
from the outdoor unit. This is a normal occurrence. The  
thermostat may engage auxiliary heat during the  
defrost cycle to satisfy a heating demand; however,  
the unit will return to normal operation at the  
conclusion of the defrost cycle.  
Make sure no obstructions restrict airflow to the  
outdoor unit.  
Grass clippings, leaves, or shrubs crowding the unit  
can cause the unit to work harder and use more  
energy.  
Extended Power Outage  
The heat pump is equipped with a compressor crankcase  
heater which protects the compressor from refrigerant  
slugging during cold weather operation.  
S
Keep shrubbery trimmed away from the unit and  
periodically check for debris which collects around the  
unit.  
If power to your unit has been interrupted for several hours  
or more, set the room thermostat selector to the  
EMERGENCY HEAT setting to obtain temporary heat  
without the risk of serious damage to the heat pump.  
Routine Maintenance  
In order to ensure peak performance, your system must be  
properly maintained. Clogged filters and blocked airflow  
prevent your unit from operating at its most efficient level.  
In EMERGENCY HEAT mode, all heating demand is  
satisfied by auxiliary heat; heat pump operation is locked  
out. After a six-hour compressor crankcase warm-up  
period, the thermostat can be switched to the HEAT setting  
and normal heat pump operation may resume.  
1. Air Filter ꢀ Ask your Lennox dealer to show you  
where your indoor unit’s filter is located. It will be either  
at the indoor unit (installed internal or external to the  
cabinet) or behind a return air grille in the wall or  
ceiling. Check the filter monthly and clean or replace  
it as needed.  
Preservice Check  
If your system fails to operate, check the following before  
calling for service:  
2. Disposable Filter ꢀ Disposable filters should be  
replaced with a filter of the same type and size.

Verify room thermostat settings are correct.  
Verify that all electrical disconnect switches are ON.  
Check for any blown fuses or tripped circuit breakers.  
Verify unit access panels are in place.  
NOTE If you are unsure about the filter required for your  
system, call your Lennox dealer for assistance.  
3. Reusable Filter ꢀ Many indoor units are equipped  
with reusable foam filters. Clean foam filters with a  
mild soap and water solution; rinse thoroughly; allow  
filter to dry completely before returning it to the unit or  
grille.  
Verify air filter is clean.  
If service is needed, locate and write down the unit  
model number and have it handy before calling.  
NOTE The filter and all access panels must be in place  
any time the unit is in operation.

Home Energy System component ordering.  
Solar energy is first used to meet cooling/heating  
demands. When the outdoor unit is not operating, the  
system powers lighting, appliances and other electronic  
devices in the home. Any surplus power is sent back to the  
utility company for a possible credit (check with your local  
utility company for availability).  
Wiring runs from the roof−mounted solar modules to the  
outdoor unit. From there, power travels to the home  
electrical service panel using the existing outdoor unit  
power wiring.
