13ACX Air Conditioners, which will also be referred to in
this instruction as the outdoor unit, uses HFC-410A
refrigerant. This outdoor unit must be installed with a
matching indoor unit and line set as outlined in the Lennox
13ACX Product Specification bulletin.
This outdoor unit is designed for use in systems that use
one of the following refrigerant metering devices:
Thermal expansion valve (TXV)
Fixed orifice
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.
