XP15 Outdoor Unit
®
Litho U.S.A.
IMPORTANT
This unit must be matched with an indoor coil as
specified in Lennox’ Engineering Handbook.
Coils previously charged with HCFC−22 must be
flushed.
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.
IMPORTANT
Shipping and Packing List
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.

General Information
These instructions are intended as a general guide and do
not supersede local codes in any way. Consult authorities
who have jurisdiction before installation.
When servicing or repairing HVAC components, ensure
caps and fasteners are appropriately tightened. Table 1
lists torque values for typical service and repair items.
Table 1. Torque Requirements
Part Recommended Torque
Service valve cap 8 ft.− lb. 11 NM
Sheet metal screws 16 in.− lb. 2 NM
Machine screws #10 28 in.− lb. 3 NM
Compressor bolts 90 in.− lb. 10 NM
Gauge port seal cap 8 ft.− lb. 11 NM
Page 2
USING MANIFOLD GAUGE SETS
HFC−410A refrigerant manifold gauge sets must be
capable of handling higher system operating pressures.
The gauge set shall be rated for use with pressures of 0 −
800 psig on the high side, and a low side of 30 inches of
vacuum (Hg) to 250 psig, which retards when opened to
500 psig. Gauge hoses must be rated for use up to 800 psig
of pressure with a 4000 psig burst rating.
OPERATING SERVICE VALVES
IMPORTANT
Only use Allen wrenches of sufficient hardness
(50Rc − Rockwell Harness Scale minimum). Fully
insert the wrench into the valve stem recess.
Service valve stems are factory−torqued (from 9
ft−lbs for small valves, to 25 ft−lbs for large valves) to
prevent refrigerant loss during shipping and
handling. Using an Allen wrench rated at less than
50Rc risks rounding or breaking off the wrench, or
stripping the valve stem recess.
The liquid and vapor lines service valves with gauge ports
as illustrated in figures 2 and 3 are used for removing
refrigerant, flushing, leak testing, evacuating, checking
charge and charging.
Each valve is equipped with a service port which has a
factory−installed valve stem.

New or Replacement Line Set
This section provides information on installation or
replacement of existing line sets. If line sets are not being
installed or replace, then proceed to Brazing Connections
on page 11.
If refrigerant lines are routed through a wall, seal and
isolate the opening so vibration is not transmitted to the
building. Pay close attention to line set isolation during
installation of any HVAC system. When properly isolated
from building structures (walls, ceilings. floors), the
refrigerant lines will not create unnecessary vibration and
subsequent sounds.
REFRIGERANT LINE SET
Field refrigerant piping consists of liquid and vapor lines
from the outdoor unit (sweat connections) to the indoor unit
coil (flare or sweat connections). Use Lennox L15 (sweat,
non−flare) series line sets, or use field−fabricated
refrigerant lines as listed in table 3.
MATCHING WITH NEW OR EXISTING INDOOR COIL
AND LINE SET
IMPORTANT
Matching XP15 with a New Indoor Coil and Line
SetIf installing a new indoor coil and reusing the
existing line set that included a RFCI liquid line
(small bore liquid line used as a metering device)
then you must change to a standard size liquid line.
Line sets for heat pump applications can not be installed
underground. For more information see the Lennox
Refrigerant Piping Design and Fabrication Guidelines, or
contact Lennox Technical Support Product Applications
for assistance.
