Service Literature
G41UF series units are high−efficiency upflow gas fur
naces manufactured with Lennox DuralokPlust alumi
nized primary and stainless steel secondary clamshell type
heat exchangers. G41UF units are available in heating
input capacities of 44,000 to 132,000 Btuh (12.9 to 38.6 kW)
and cooling applications from 2 through 5 tons (7.0 through
17.6 kW). Refer to Engineering Handbook for proper sizing.
Units are factory equipped for use with natural gas. A kit is
available for conversion to LPG operation. All G41UF
units are equipped with the Lennox SureLight® hot sur
face ignition system. The gas valve is redundant to as
sure safety shut−off as required by C.S.A.
The heat exchanger, burners and manifold assembly can be
removed for inspection and service. The maintenance section
gives a detailed description on how this is done.
Information contained in this manual is intended for use by
qualified service technicians only. All specifications are sub
ject to change. Procedures outlined in this manual are pre
sented as a recommendation only and do not supersede or
replace local or state codes.
