Lennox 13CHA Installation Instructions

It is recommended to schedule maintenance for the Lennox 13CHA twice a year, typically in the spring and fall. This includes checking refrigerant levels, cleaning coils, and inspecting electrical connections.
To clean the coils, first turn off the power to the unit. Remove any debris from the exterior with a brush, then use a coil cleaner spray and a soft brush to clean the fins. Rinse with water and ensure it is dry before restoring power.
If your Lennox 13CHA is not cooling properly, check the thermostat settings, ensure the air filter is clean, and inspect the outdoor unit for debris. If the issue persists, contact a qualified HVAC technician for further diagnosis.
To improve energy efficiency, regularly clean or replace air filters, ensure proper insulation in your home, seal any leaks in ductwork, and schedule regular maintenance checks.
The Lennox 13CHA typically uses a standard 1-inch pleated air filter. It is recommended to use filters with a MERV rating between 8 and 13 for optimal performance and air quality.
The air filter should be inspected every 1-3 months and replaced when it appears dirty. Homes with pets or high dust levels may require more frequent replacement.
Check the circuit breaker and ensure the thermostat is set correctly. Inspect wiring connections for any visible issues. If these steps do not resolve the problem, contact a professional technician.
To reset the Lennox 13CHA, turn off the thermostat, disconnect power to the unit for about 30 seconds, then restore power and turn the thermostat back on.
Ensure the power is completely turned off to the unit to prevent electrical shock. Use appropriate safety gear and tools, and follow all manufacturer guidelines during servicing.
Checking refrigerant levels should be done by a certified HVAC technician due to the complexity and safety risks involved. They will use specialized gauges to ensure proper levels.
