S e r v i c e L i t e r a t u r e
ML180UHE(X) series units are mid-efficiency gas furnac-
es used for upflow or horizontal applications only, man-
ufactured with Lennox Duralok heat exchangers formed
of aluminized steel. ML180UHE(X) units are available in
heating capacities of 44,000 to 132,000 Btuh and cooling
applications 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.
ML180UHE(X) model units are equipped with a hot sur-
face ignition system. The ML180UHE(X) unit meets the
California Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) Standards and Califor-
nia Seasonal Efficiency requirements.
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. Procedures outlined in this manual
are presented as a recommendation only and do not su-
persede or replace local or state codes. In the absence
of local or state codes, the guidelines and procedures
outlined in this manual (except where noted) are recom-
mended only and do not constitute code.
WARNING
Improper
installation,
service or maintenance can cause property damage,
personal injury or loss of life. Installation and service
must be performed by a licensed professional HVAC
installer (or equivalent), service agency or the gas
supplier.
