Lennox 26Z71 specifications

What the Lennox 26Z71 thermal expansion valve does

A thermal expansion valve meters liquid refrigerant into the evaporator and holds superheat steady as load changes. It replaces a fixed orifice with active control, so the system keeps capacity and efficiency across a wide range of conditions. A restricted or failed TXV shows up as poor cooling, frost on the coil, or wildly swinging superheat.

Fitment and cross-reference

Match the valve to the system tonnage and the refrigerant. R-454B valves are not interchangeable with R-410A or R-22 valves, so check the data plate first. Also confirm the connection sizes and mount the sensing bulb tightly on a clean, horizontal suction line.

Cross-reference note: Lennox also lists this valve as 108030-02.

Also, compare it against the rest of our HVAC valves, or browse all Lennox parts. You can review manufacturer documentation on the official Lennox site.
