The Model LPZ-2 was designed to work with your single-
stage or self-staging heat/cool equipment (for example a
furnace and an air conditioner).
Basic Operation
Your Zone Control System will allow you to increase your
comfort by directing conditioned air to separate areas (zones)
based
on
each
zone’s
thermostat
setting.
To operate this system, just set or program each zone’s
thermostat to your desired comfort set points. When there is a
heating or cooling call from any zone, the appropriate heating
or cooling equipment will be turned on. The dampers to zones
not requiring heating or cooling will close and the conditioned
air will be directed to the calling zone (s) until the thermostat
is satisfied.
Your zone control system is designed to direct conditioned air
only to the rooms served by that zone’s thermostat. However,
due to the open design of today’s homes, it may not be
possible to maintain drastic temperature differences between
zones. Closing interior doors is a good way to reduce the air
exchange between zones and increase the temperature
difference between them.
The following sections describe how to make Heating and
Cooling calls.
Heating Operation
To start heating:
1. Set your thermostat to the Heat mode. Depending on the
thermostat, this is accomplished by either manually moving
a switch to the Heat position or digitally selecting Heat
mode with a push button. Consult your thermostat Owner’s
Manual for details.
2. Adjust the thermostat set point to a temperature higher than
the displayed room temperature so that a Heat call is
initiated. Again, consult your thermostat Owner’s Manual
for details on how to do this properly.
When you have correctly initiated a Heat call, the Lennox
LPZ-2 Zone Control Panel will start your heating equipment. If
the equipment does not come on right away it may be due to

the minimum-off time delay. Four minutes must elapse after
the last furnace cycle before it can come on again. This built
in feature ensures that the furnace does not cycle too
frequently, which can reduce the life of your furnace.
Cooling Operation
1. To start cooling: Set your thermostat to the Cool mode.
Depending on the thermostat, this is accomplished by
either manually moving a switch to the Cool position or
digitally selecting Cool mode with a push button. Consult
your thermostat Owner’s Manual for details.
2. Adjust the thermostat set point to a temperature lower than
the displayed room temperature so that a Cool call is
initiated. Again, consult your thermostat Owner’s Manual
for details on how to do this properly.
When you have correctly initiated a Cooling call, the Lennox
LPZ-2 Zone Control Panel will start your cooling equipment.
If your air conditioning does not come on right away it may be
due to the minimum-off time delay. Four minutes must elapse
after the last air conditioner cycle before it can come on
again. This built-in feature ensures that the air conditioner
does not cycle too frequently, which can reduce the life of
your equipment.
Damper Operation
When the Lennox Zone Control Panel receives a call and
turns on the appropriate equipment, it also automatically
closes the dampers that serve the non-calling zones and
opens those in the calling zones. When all calls are satisfied,
the Control Panel initiates a purge cycle during which time the
dampers maintain their last position. After this purge all
dampers open.
Fan Operation
The Model LZP-2 Lennox Control Panel allows you to control
fan operation from any zone. Dampers in zones not calling for
fan will close. If continous fan operation is desired in all zones,
the fan must be turned on at the thermostat in both zones.

Turning the System Off (All Models)
In order to shut off the system and prevent the Lennox
LPZ-2 Zone Control Panel from turning on your equipment,
you need to set ALL of your thermostats to the OFF mode.
Depending on your thermostats, this is done manually with a
slide switch on your thermostat’s sub-base or with a digital push
button. Consult the Owner’s Manual for your particular
thermostat.
If leaving the home for a long period of time, set the
thermostats to the Heat mode and adjust the set point to a
temperature that will prevent freezing in all areas of the home.
It is not recommended to turn off all thermostats for extended
periods in climates where freezing temperatures may occur.
Thermostat Replacement
Not all thermostats will work for all systems. If you need to
replace a thermostat, call the Lennox dealer that installed your
system. Certain types of thermostats, known as power
robbing thermostats, could cause unintended operation and
should never be used. You can tell if a thermostat is power
robbing by looking to see if it does not have a wire connection
terminal labeled C (common). Power robbing thermostats do
not have a C terminal. Only thermostats with a C terminal
should be installed.
Maintenance
Once your Lennox Zone Control System is properly installed,
there is no maintenance required to the control panel
components. Standard heating and cooling equipment
maintenance is required.
