CX34 upflow coils and all Lennox air handlers are shipped with a factory
installed TXV. In most cases, no change out of the valve is needed.
If a change out is required it will be listed in the "TXV SUBSTITUTIONS" table.
The correct TXV must be ordered separately and field installed.
C33 and CH33 coils - Use the orifice shipped with the outdoor unit or replace
the factory installed orifice with the expansion valve listed.
CR33 and CH23 coils - Use the orifice shipped with the outdoor unit or use the
expansion valve listed.
CH35 coils - Factory installed orifice must be replaced with the expansion
valve listed.

Cooling or heating capacities are net values, including
the effects of blower motor heat, and do not include
supplementary heat. Power input is the total power input
to the compressor(s) and fan(s), plus any controls and
other items required as part of the system for normal
operation.

* CX34 coils and all air handlers - The factory installed expansion valve must
be replaced with the expansion valve listed (ordered separately).
If the combination is not listed above, the factory installed TXV is used.
Units which do not have an indoor air-circulating blower
furnished as part of the model, i.e., split system with
indoor coil only, is established by subtracting from the
total cooling capacity 1250 Btu/h per 1,000 cfm, and by
adding the same amount to the heating capacity. Total
power input for both heating and cooling is increased by
365 W per 1,000 cfm of indoor air circulated.
