Service Literature
The XP13 is a high efficiency residential split−system heat
pump unit, which features a scroll compressor and R−410A
refrigerant. XP13 units are available in sizes ranging from 1
1/2 through 5 tons. The series is designed for use with an
indoor unit with an expansion valve approved for R−410A.
This manual is divided into sections which discuss the ma-
jor components, refrigerant system, charging procedure,
maintenance and operation sequence.
Information contained in this manual is intended for use by
qualified service technicians only. All specifications are
subject to change.
IMPORTANT
Operating pressures of this R−410A unit are higher
than pressures in R−22 units. Always use service
equipment rated for R−410A.

moved from original installation site. Warranty will
not cover damage or defect resulting from:
Flood, wind, lightning, or installation and opera-
tion in a corrosive atmosphere (chlorine, fluorine,

    GROUNDING (A108) All major components (indoor blower and coil) must be matched according to Lennox recommendations for the compressor to be covered under warranty. Refer to the En- gineering Handbook for approved system matchups. A misapplied system will cause erratic operation and can re- sult in early compressor failure.
