A good fit if…
- Your winters get properly cold - it is ENERGY STAR cold-climate certified, with 20,000 BTU/h at 5°F.
- It will heat most of the year - its HSPF2 beats 79% of mini-splits.
- You want steady temperatures and quiet running - the compressor varies its speed.
Think twice if…
- Cooling cost matters most - its SEER2 is below average for mini-splits.
- You want the newest refrigerant - it uses R-410A, which is being phased down.

Questions
- What is the SEER2 rating of the Lennox LISH024000P431-D?
- The Lennox LISH024000P431-D is rated at up to 21.5 SEER2 and 12.5 EER2 for cooling and up to 11.2 HSPF2 for heating. The exact figure depends on the indoor unit it is paired with; across its 4 certified matchups SEER2 ranges from 19.0-21.5.
- Is the Lennox LISH024000P431-D good for cold climates?
- Yes. At least one certified matchup meets the ENERGY STAR cold-climate criteria, delivering up to 20,000 BTU/h at 5°F with a COP of 2.30, so it is still 2.3 times as efficient as electric resistance heat at that temperature.
- How much does the Lennox LISH024000P431-D cost to run per year?
- At its rated efficiency it costs about $525-$1,409 a year in electricity in large U.S. cities, depending on climate and local rates - for example $648 in Phoenix and $1,177 in Minneapolis. The calculator on this page works it out for your city and compares it with your current system.
- Which indoor units work with the Lennox LISH024000P431-D?
- ENERGY STAR lists 4 certified combinations for this outdoor unit. The highest-rated ones use LENNOX LICH4024180P431-D, LENNOX LIUH024180P431-C, LENNOX LIFHC024180P431-C.
- What refrigerant does the Lennox LISH024000P431-D use?
- It uses R-410A. R-410A is being phased down under the EPA AIM Act, and new systems are moving to R-454B and R-32.
