ML180UHA series units are mid-efficiency gas furnaces

used for upflow or horizontal applications only, manufac­

tured with Lennox Duralok Plus

t

 heat exchangers formed

of aluminized steel. ML180UHA units are available in heat­

ing capacities of 69.6 to 139.3 MJ/h and cooling applica­

tions 10 to 17 kW. Refer to Engineering Handbook for prop­

er sizing.

Units are factory equipped for use with natural gas. Kits are

available for conversion to LP/Propane operation.

ML180UHA  model  units are equipped with  a hot surface

ignition system.  All units use a redundant gas valve to as­

sure safety shut-off as required.

All specifications in this manual are subject to change. Pro­

cedures outlined in this manual are presented as a recom­

mendation only and do not supersede or replace local or
