Features
The most precise and efficient heat pump available, featuring Lennox' most advanced cold climate technology.*
The Dave Lennox Signature® Collection SL22KLV is a heat pump like no other. Utilizing Lennox' most advanced cold climate heat pump technology, it optimizes efficiency while delivering rich, warm comfort in temperatures as low as -20°F. From its innovative cabinet design that increases durability, to its digital communication features that maximize accurate control, no other heat pump delivers this level of efficiency and precision.*
Leading heat pump technology for the coldest conditions
Our leading heat pump is engineered with Lennox' most advanced cold climate technology, using a variable-speed compressor with Electronic Refrigerant Injection (ERI) to adjust the energy usage based on the outside temperature. In colder temperatures, the ERI increases heating output efficiently, providing the warm, rich comfort of a gas furnace with the efficiency of a heat pump.
The perfect amount of quiet
To reduce operating sound levels, the SL22KLV uses a sound-dampening system with a precision-balanced, direct-drive fan to ensure smooth, quiet operation. This lets it operate at a volume as quiet as 58 dB, or the sound of a microwave.
Digitally intelligent for accuracy and efficiency
This truly digital product is designed to pair with the Lennox S40 Smart Thermostat as part of a fully communicating home comfort system. Sensors in the equipment allow the thermostat to diagnose issues and automatically make system adjustments to more accurately and efficiently maintain temperature, humidity and air quality.
Cabinets designed for reliability and serviceability
Our most innovative cabinet design features panels that fit securely to the unit to prevent excess noise, along with an easily removable louver panel that allows for quick access by your technician. This proprietary design makes Lennox units more attractive and durable, quieter and easier to install and service, so nothing stands between you and having perfect air in your home.
A refrigerant that’s better for the environment.
This product is compliant with 2025 EPA regulations for lower global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants. The Lennox choice of 2025 Compliant Refrigerant has a lower GWP than its predecessor and is formulated to provide excellent, reliable performance of your system for years to come.

SL22KLV Cold Climate Heat Pump
Steady temperature control and very quiet
July 23, 2025Since our heat pump, matching air handler and smart thermostat work as one unit, the 5 star rating is for all three working together. Our previous Lennox heat pump worked well for 18 years and then failed during a day that was over 100 degrees. A lot has changed in 18 years, technologically. The previous unit operated in cycles of very cold air blasted into the house. Then it would shut down and the house would warm up until it hit the set temperature. By contrast, the new unit seems to run continuously and the temperature holds very steady all day. It is very quiet and runs unnoticed most of the time. A very big improvement and deserving 5 stars. The new unit is more energy efficient and I assume that even though it is running continuously it consumes less electricity. That needs to be confirmed. Currently, with unlimited sunshine, our solar panels provide all the power and the only monthly bill is for the meter itself. Haven't been tracking the solar output lately. Will this unit last 18 years too? Looking at the inside the heat pump reveals a very robust design. Our previous heat pump looked like a toy by comparison. Given performance thus far and the build of the units, the cost is reasonable. Reliability is unknown at this point, but the engineering looks very promising. This unit also uses the latest refrigerant and that is a plus as well.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Products that add to the performance of SL22KLV Cold Climate Heat Pump
- * Efficiency claim based on comparison of the combined heating and cooling efficiency within a single product family (HSPF2, EER2, and SEER2 of the SL22KLV) as compared to the HSPF2, EER2, and SEER2 of competitive R-454B and R-32 ducted heat pump as published in AHRI (January 2025). Actual system efficiency may vary based on the system match and other factors; consult AHRI Directory for exact system efficiency. Precision claim based on the average cooling capacity range of the SL22KLV as compared to the average cooling capacity range of the competitive variable capacity compressor units based on published competitive data (January 2025). Cooling capacity ranges calculated across 2, 3, 4 and 5 tonnage at maximum and minimum speed at ARI standard rating conditions: 95°F outdoor and 80°/67° indoor (80°F dry bulb and 67°F wet bulb).
