LENNOX XP25 Heat Pump Maintenance

Outdoor Unit

Maintenance and service must be performed by a qualified installer or service agency. At the beginning of each cooling season, the system should be checked as follows:

Clean and inspect outdoor coil (may be flushed with a water hose). Ensure power is off before cleaning.

Outdoor unit fan motor is factory-lubricated and sealed. No further lubrication is needed.

Visually inspect all connecting lines, joints and coils for evidence of oil leaks.

Check all wiring for loose connections

Check for correct voltage at unit (unit operating).

Check amp draw on outdoor fan motor

Inspect drain holes in coil compartment base and clean if necessary.

NOTE - If insufficient heating or cooling occurs, the unit should be gauged and refrigerant charge should be checked.

Outdoor Coil

It may be necessary to flush the outdoor coil more frequently if it is exposed to substances which are corrosive or which block airflow across the coil

pet urine
cotton wood seeds
fertilizers

fluids that may contain high levels of corrosive chemicals such as salts

Outdoor Coil

The outdoor coil may be flushed with a water hose.

Outdoor Coil (Coastal Area)

Moist air in ocean locations can carry salt, which is corrosive to most metal. Units that are located near the ocean require frequent inspections and maintenance. These inspections will determine the necessary need to wash the unit including the outdoor

Indoor Unit

Clean or change filters.

Lennox blower motors are factory-lubricated and permanently sealed. No more lubrication is needed.

Adjust blower speed for cooling. Measure the pressure drop over the coil to determine the correct blower CFM. Refer to the unit information service manual for pressure drop tables and procedure.
