Safety Information

DANGER

Danger of explosion.

There are circumstances in which odorant used with LP/propane gas can lose its scent. In case of a leak, LP/propane gas will settle close to the floor and may be difficult to smell. An LP/propane leak detector should be installed in all LP applications.

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 installer (or equivalent), service agency or the gas supplier.

CAUTION

As with any mechanical equipment, personal injury can result from contact with sharp sheet metal edges. Be careful when you handle this equipment.

Certifications

SL280DFV units are CSA International certified.

In the USA, installation of gas furnaces must conform with local building codes. In the absence of local codes, units must be installed according to the current National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI-Z223.1). The National Fuel Gas Code is available from the following address:

American National Standards Institute, Inc.

11 West 42nd Street

New York, NY 10036

Clearances

Adequate clearance must be made around the air open- ings into the vestibule area. In order to ensure proper unit operation, combustion and ventilation air supply must be provided according to the current National Fuel Gas Code. Vent installations must be consistent with the venting tables (in this instruction) and applicable provisions of local building codes.

This furnace is CSA International certified for installation clearances to combustible material as listed on the unit nameplate and in the tables in figure 13. Accessibility and service clearances must take precedence over fire protection clearances.

Installed Locations

For installation in a residential garage, the furnace must be installed so that the burner(s) and the ignition source are located no less than 18 inches (457 mm) above the floor. The furnace must be located or protected to avoid physical damage by vehicles. When a furnace is installed in a public garage, hangar, or other building that has a haz- ardous atmosphere, the furnace must be installed accord- ing to recommended good practice requirements and cur- rent National Fuel Gas Code.

NOTE − Furnace must be adjusted to obtain a temperature rise (high and low fire) within the range(s) specified on the unit nameplate. Failure to do so may cause erratic limit operation and may also result in premature heat exchanger failure.

This SL280DFV furnace must be installed so that its electri- cal components are protected from water.

Installed in Combination with a Cooling Coil

When this furnace is used with cooling units, it shall be installed in parallel with, or on the upstream side of, cooling units to avoid condensation in the heating compartment. With a parallel flow arrangement, a damper (or other means to control the flow of air) must adequately prevent

Lennox International Inc has made a significant mark in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry, known for its commitment to innovation and energy efficiency. One of its standout products is the SL280DFV model, a high-efficiency gas furnace designed to meet the needs of modern homes.

The SL280DFV boasts an impressive Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating of up to 80%. This rating indicates that the furnace converts 80% of the fuel it consumes into usable heat, making it a cost-effective choice for homeowners. The high efficiency not only reduces energy bills but also lessens the environmental impact by minimizing greenhouse gas emissions.

One of the key features of the SL280DFV is its two-stage gas valve operation. This technology allows the furnace to operate at two levels of heating output: low stage for milder days and high stage for extremely cold temperatures. This adaptability enhances comfort by maintaining more consistent indoor temperatures while also saving energy when full power is unnecessary.

Another innovative aspect of the SL280DFV is its variable-speed blower motor. This smart technology enables the furnace to adjust airflow based on the heating needs of a home, which promotes quiet operation and improved temperature consistency throughout living spaces.

The SL280DFV is equipped with a durable heat exchanger that is designed to withstand the rigors of daily use, contributing to the unit’s longevity. Additionally, the furnace features a smart ignition system that ensures reliable start-ups, so homeowners can depend on it through the coldest winter nights.
