Service Literature
EL180DFE series units are mid-efficiency gas furnaces
used for downflow applications only, manufactured with
Lennox Duralokt heat exchangers formed of aluminized
steel. EL180DFE units are available in heating capacities
of 44,000 to 110,000 Btuh and cooling applications 1.5 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.
EL180DFE model units are equipped with a hot surface igni­
tion system and a constant torque ECM motor. The motor is
programmed to provide constant torque at each of the five
selectable speed taps. All units use a redundant gas valve to
assure safety shut-off as required by C.S.A.
All specifications in this manual are subject to change. Pro­
cedures outlined in this manual are presented as a recom­
mendation only and do not supersede or replace local or
state codes. In the absence of local or state codes, the

WARNING
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service
or maintenance can cause property damage, person­
al injury or loss of life. Installation and service must
be performed by a licensed professional HVAC in­
staller (or equivalent), service agency or the gas sup­
plier.

The T1 low voltage transformer is energized, and line voltage is applied to B3 indoor blower. S47 rollout switch(es) must be closed in order for 24V from transformer to be output on integrated control ”R” to power thermostat. When there is a call for heat, W1 of the thermostat energizes W of the furnace control with 24VAC.
