INDOOR EXPANSION VALVE INSTALLATION
FIGURE 9. Installing Indoor Expansion Valve
This outdoor unit is designed for use in systems that use a
check expansion valve metering device at the indoor coil.
See the Lennox 16ACX Product Specification bulletin for
approved expansion valve kit match-ups. The 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 expansion valve in a
manner that will provide access for field servicing of the
expansion valve. Refer to below illustration for reference
during installation of expansion valve unit.
