Keep your Lennox HS29-030-1P central air conditioner running efficiently with genuine OEM replacement parts from Repair Clinic. The HS29-030-1P is a two-and-a-half-ton R-22 residential outdoor condensing unit from Lennox’s HS29 series. The run capacitor, contactor, and outdoor fan motor account for the vast majority of HS29-030-1P service calls. Annual capacitance testing before the cooling season is the most cost-effective preventive maintenance step on this platform. Repair Clinic stocks genuine Lennox OEM parts for the HS29-030-1P including the Lennox capacitor parts, Lennox contactor parts, Lennox fan motor parts, and Lennox high-pressure switch parts.

Lennox HS29-030-1P: Two-and-a-Half-Ton R-22 Outdoor Condensing Unit Service
The Lennox HS29-030-1P is a two-and-a-half-ton R-22 outdoor condensing unit from the HS29 residential product line. The HS29-030 two-and-a-half-ton configuration uses different capacitor microfarad ratings than the HS29-036 three-ton sibling in the same HS29 series. Match all microfarad values from the installed capacitor label before ordering. The HS29-030-1P uses R-22 refrigerant that requires EPA 608 certified technicians for refrigerant circuit service. The central air conditioner repair help section covers HS29 capacitor testing and contactor diagnosis.
Most Replaced Parts on the Lennox HS29-030-1P
Run Capacitor for the Lennox HS29-030-1P
The run capacitor provides starting and running torque for both the compressor and outdoor fan motor. A capacitor reading more than 10% below its rated microfarad value causes the compressor to hard-start, accumulating heat in the motor windings. Match all microfarad and voltage values from the installed capacitor label before ordering.
Lennox HS29-030-1P Contactor
The contactor closes the 240-volt compressor power circuit at every cooling cycle start. Pitted or burned contact surfaces increase resistance and generate heat that transfers to the compressor motor terminals. Replace a contactor with visibly eroded contacts before compressor winding damage occurs.
Outdoor Fan Motor for the HS29-030-1P
The outdoor fan motor pulls air through the condenser coil. Test the run capacitor before ordering a replacement motor, as a failed capacitor produces identical slow-start symptoms at a fraction of the motor replacement cost.
High-Pressure Switch for the HS29-030-1P
A high-pressure switch that trips repeatedly under normal ambient conditions points to a blocked condenser coil, failed fan motor, or refrigerant overcharge rather than a failed switch diaphragm.
Why Choose Repair Clinic for Lennox HS29-030-1P Parts
- Genuine Lennox HS29 OEM Components: Run capacitors, contactors, and fan motors confirmed for the HS29-030-1P two-and-a-half-ton R-22 platform Lennox central air conditioner parts.
- HS29-030 vs HS29-036 Capacitor Distinction: Two-and-a-half-ton and three-ton capacitor microfarad ratings are differentiated in the catalog to prevent cross-tonnage substitution within the HS29 series.
- R-22 Refrigerant Circuit Context: The HS29-030-1P uses R-22 refrigerant. Refrigerant circuit service requires EPA 608 certified technicians with access to reclaimed R-22.
- 365-Day Returns: Return any uninstalled Lennox part within a full year of purchase with no restocking fees.
Lennox HS29-030-1P Parts FAQ
What is the Lennox HS29-030-1P and what ton size is it?
The Lennox HS29-030-1P is a two-and-a-half-ton R-22 residential outdoor condensing unit from Lennox’s HS29 series. The 030 identifies approximately 30,000 BTU two-and-a-half-ton capacity and the 1P identifies the production configuration within the HS29-030 platform.
Why does my Lennox HS29-030-1P hum but not start?
A unit that hums but does not start has most commonly failed at the run capacitor, which cannot provide adequate starting torque to the compressor or fan motor. Test the capacitor with a digital capacitance meter before testing the contactor or compressor.
What refrigerant does the Lennox HS29-030-1P use?
The HS29-030-1P uses R-22 refrigerant. R-22 is no longer produced for new equipment and requires EPA 608 certified technicians for any refrigerant circuit service using reclaimed R-22 supplies.
How often should I test the capacitor on the Lennox HS29-030-1P?
Test the capacitor annually before the cooling season. A reading more than 10% below the rated microfarad value indicates a weakening capacitor that should be replaced before it fails under peak summer load.
