- OEM Compatibility: Guaranteed to meet the exact technical specifications for Lennox 150951-009 and 21L87-01 part numbers.
- Enhanced Efficiency: Optimizes evaporator coil performance for lower energy consumption and consistent climate control.
Common Questions:
What are the symptoms of a failing Lennox 21L87 TXV?
Common indicators include high superheat, low suction pressure, or a frozen evaporator coil. If the valve is stuck closed, you will likely see refrigerant flow restrictions that starve the coil.
Can I use this valve for both AC and Heat Pump systems?
Yes, this thermal expansion valve is designed for specific Lennox air conditioners and heat pumps. Always verify your specific model and serial number to ensure proper metering and compatibility.
Does this valve include the sensing bulb?
Yes, this is a complete assembly with the power head and sensing bulb. Remember to insulate the bulb properly on the suction line and protect the valve body with a wet rag during brazing to avoid damaging internal components.
