Lennox furnaces are a popular brand and have a popular error code of E270.
This error code is an indication of a blocked safety sensor. If not addressed swiftly, this error can lead to a furnace failure.
The most common cause for the E270 error code is lint or debris on the heat sensors in the exhaust vent pipe, which leads to heat loss and causes the air flow sensor to fail. The sensor is located on top of the furnace, near where the gas pipes attach.
