Revised 06-2013
EL180UHE(X) series units are mid-efficiency gas furnaces
used for upflow or horizontal applications only, manufac
tured with Lennox Duralokt heat exchangers formed of
aluminized steel. EL180UHE(X) units are available in heat
ing capacities of 44,000 to 132,000 Btuh and cooling ap
plications 2 to 5 tons. Refer to Engineering Handbook for
proper sizing.
Units are factory equipped for use with natural gas. Kits are
available for conversion to LP/Propane operation.
EL180UHE(X) model units are equipped with a hot surface
ignition system. The EL180UHE(X) unit meets the Califor
nia Nitrogen Oxides (NO
x
) Standards and California Sea
sonal Efficiency requirements. All units use a redundant
gas valve to assure safety shut-off as required by C.S.A.
