Craftsmanship & Reliability 

• Quantum™ Coil – with years of rigorous testing under the most extreme conditions, our Quantum Coil – featuring a proprietary aluminum alloy exclusive to Lennox – is designed to weather the harshest elements. 
• Cabinet Construction – heavy-gauge, galvanized steel construction, louver coil guard, baked-on powder finish and durable zinc-coated steel base provide long-lasting protection against rust and corrosion. 
• Braze-free installation flexibility – our 2025 compliant systems can accommodate braze-free fittings, giving you greater flexibility when installing. 
• Drainage holes – prevent damaging moisture from collecting inside the base pan. 

Safety & Sustainability 

• This product uses R-454B refrigerant which meets the 2025 EPA regulations for lower global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants. 
• Our 2025 compliant systems feature a Refrigerant Detection System (RDS) mandated by the new safety code created for A2L, or mildly flammable refrigerants. The RDS is required for systems with over four pounds of refrigerant and consists of two components: the sensor, which detects leaks, and the control board, which interrupts unit operation and activates the indoor blower to disperse leaks, ensuring safe operation.
