XP15 Outdoor Unit

The Lennox XP15 outdoor units use HFC−410A
refrigerant. This unit must be installed with a matching
indoor coil and line set as outlined in the Lennox
Engineering Handbook. XP15 series outdoor units are
designed for use in check expansion valve (CTXV)
systems only, and are not designed to be used with other
refrigerant flow control devices. The Lennox Engineering
Handbook lists compatible indoor CTXV kits which are
ordered separately.

Shipping and Packing List

1 − Assembled XP15 outdoor unit
1 − Bushing (for low voltage wiring)
2 − Grommets (for liquid and vapor lines)

Check equipment for shipping damage. If you find any
damage, immediately contact the last carrier.
