Torque Requirements for Caps and Fasteners
When servicing or repairing HVAC components, ensure the fasteners are appropriately tightened. “Table 1. Torque Requirements” provides torque values for fasteners.
IMPORTANT
Only use Allen wrenches of sufficient hardness (50Rc – Rockwell scale minimum). Fully insert the wrench into the valve stem recess.
Service valve stems are factory-torqued from 9 ft.-lbs. (12 N) for small valves, to 25 ft.-lbs. (34 N) 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.
See the Lennox Service and Application Notes C-08-1 for further details and information.

Unit Placement Considerations
AVOID
Do not install the unit in the following locations:
Units are wall mounted using two factory-provided hanging brackets.
Make sure that drain piping is properly routed and insulated to prevent both leaks and condensation.
Drain should have a slope of at least ¼ inch per foot and should be approved corrosion-resistant pipe. You must confirm operation of every drain and pump in the system as part of the commissioning procedure.
Outdoor Unit Installation
Placement Considerations
CAUTION
In order to avoid injury, take proper precaution when lifting heavy objects.
Consider the following when positioning the unit:
Direct Sunlight, Rain, Snow and Ice Protection
The construction of a canopy or shade is necessary because of an ambient limit control set to 122°F (50°C) to protect the electronics. If the outdoor unit is placed in direct sunlight it is possible that the limit may activate and shut down the unit.
Prevailing Winds
Normally wind baffles are not required for a outdoor unit. However, in order to maximize reliability and performance, the following best practices should be followed.
If unit coil cannot be installed away from prevailing winter winds, some method of protecting the coil is recommended. However, minimum clearances as reference in “Figure 5. Outdoor Unit Clearances – Inches (mm)” on page 6 must be observed at all times.
Common application examples are:
Condensate formed during the heating and defrost processes must be drained from heat pump units. Drain holes are provided in the base of the units to ensure proper drainage.
Slab or Roof Mounting
Install the unit a minimum of 4 inches (102 mm) above the roof or ground surface to avoid ice build-up around the unit. Place the unit above a load bearing wall or area of the roof that can adequately support the unit. Consult local codes for rooftop applications.
CAUTION
This system contains both refrigerant and oil. Some rubber roofing material may absorb oil. This will 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.
Securing Outdoor Unit to Slab, Frame, or Rails
If the outdoor unit is installed on a field-provided slab or frame, use lag bolts or equivalent to secure the outdoor unit to the slab or frame.
If the outdoor unit is installed on field-provided wall mounting brackets, use lag bolts or equivalent to secure the outdoor unit to the bracket. Minimum rear clearance can be reduced to 6 inches (152 mm) when mounted on brackets and with no obstructions on the other three sides. Allow for condensate disposal when placing units above one another.
Refrigerant Piping Connections
Line sets consists of two copper pipes connecting the outdoor unit to the indoor unit. “Table 3. Refrigerant Piping and Indoor Unit Connection Sizes” lists the connection sizes. The connections are made using the provided brass flare nuts at the end of the refrigerant piping connections.

Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system will have undesirable effects as indicated below:
The line set between the indoor and outdoor units must be leak tested and evacuated to remove any non-condensables and moisture from the system.
Use the following procedure to test for system leaks:
Bar | Psig | kPa | Duration | |
1 | 3 | 44 | 303 | Minimum of 10 minutes |
2 | 15 | 220 | 1517 | Minimum of 10 minutes |

Procedure
NOTE: The blower is preset at a low speed and cannot be changed therefore it will get cold and most likely will surpass the temperature setting and will run down to 50°F (10°C) room temperature depending on the room size or other various factors. Also the Follow Me mode does not operate in this mode.
NOTE: In addition, the indoor units do not have a humidistat installed therefore they are unable to determine humidity levels. This product is not recommend as a main source for dehumidification.
Sequence of Operation
When in dry mode operation the unit is actually in cooling mode with a low speed blower operation. Set remote temp to a lower room temp to begin the dry mode operation. The compressor will stop when the room temperature is 50°F (10°C) lower than the temperature setting.
System will not resume unit until room temperature rises above 53.6°F (12°C).
Default Settings
When the system restarts after a power failure, it will default to the factory settings – AUTO mode, AUTO fan, 24°C (76°F). This may cause inconsistencies on the remote control and unit panel. Use your remote control to update the status.
Auto–Restart
In case of power failure, the system will immediately stop. When power returns, the Operation light on the indoor unit will flash. To restart the unit, press the ON/OFF button on the remote control. If the system has an auto restart function, the unit will restart using the same settings.
Louver Angle Memory Function
Some models are designed with a louver angle memory function. When the unit restarts after a power failure, the angle of the horizontal louvers will automatically return to the previous position.
The angle of the horizontal louver should not be set too small as condensation may form and drip into the machine. To reset the louver, press the manual button, which will reset the horizontal louver settings.
The louvers can be in automatic swing function and will swing with in a preset open and close in both heat and cooling. If you chose to position the louvers in one place. see manual mode.
Refrigerant Leak Detection System
In the event of a refrigerant leak, the LCD screen will display “EC” and the LED indicator light will flash.
Manual Operations
This display panel on the indoor unit can be used to operate the unit in case the remote control has been misplaced or is out of batteries.
Adjusting Airflow Direction
Manual Swing – Press Air Direction to put the louver at a desired angle. The louver swings (upward or downward) at a different angle with each press of the button.
The vertical blades are not automatic and can be adjusted manually as shown below. Adjust the louver vertically.
To adjust the horizontal louvers, hold the knob and move the louver. You will find a knob on the left-side and the right-side blades.
How to Clean the Air Filter
The filter prevents dust and other particles from entering the indoor unit. Dust buildup can reduce the efficiency of the air conditioner. For optimum efficiency, clean the air filter every two weeks or more frequently if you live in a dusty area. Replace the filter with a new one if it’s heavily clogged and cannot be cleaned.
