  1. I’m experiencing a code H5 on my Lennox mini split heat pump what does this mean and what do I need to do to correct it.

  2. Clifford Dominy

    What is a bF code.
    I noticed it on my daughter’s unit so I looked in my son’s room and my room and they all had the same reading on the display.
    I thought that it was odd because we don’t mess with the temp.
    In the house it stays at 68.
    I’ve looked in the book and all the paperwork for the unit but no luck.
    It is a Lennox heat pump unit.
    It appears to be back to the temp.
    On the display after I noticed the air vent door was not all the way open.
    I manually open and closed it and it appeared to start blowing air again.
    Any ideas to why they displayed that on the LED screen instead of the temperature.
    Also why did it appear to start working again after I manually moved the vent door.
