Understanding Furnace Efficiency

Efficiency is key to both the performance and cost-effectiveness of your furnace. Here's a breakdown of common efficiency ratings and what they mean for you:

• 80% metal vented exhaust: These furnaces boast 80% efficiency, meaning 80% of gas energy is converted into heat for your home, while the remaining 20% is lost through the exhaust system.
  ○ Benefits: Cost-effective and widely available.
  ○ Drawbacks: Lower energy savings compared to higher-efficiency models.

• 95% PVC vented exhaust: Achieving 95% efficiency, these furnaces extract more heat from combustion gases using PVC vented exhaust systems, resulting in greater energy savings.
  ○ Benefits: Higher energy efficiency and reduced utility costs.
  ○ Drawbacks: The initial cost may be higher.

• 96% PVC vented exhaust: Typically equipped with variable speed motors and 2-stage heating, these furnaces offer enhanced efficiency and comfort. Operating at 96% efficiency, they effectively reduce energy consumption and utility costs while providing consistent heating.
  ○ Benefits: Enhanced efficiency and comfort with variable speed fan motor and 2-stage heating.
  ○ Drawbacks: Higher initial cost compared to less efficient models, but more affordable than 98% efficiency furnaces.

• 98% PVC vented exhaust: Operating at an impressive 98% efficiency, these furnaces offer significant reductions in energy consumption and utility costs. However, note that with this high efficiency, the furnace typically requires the manufacturer’s thermostat, as it is a DC communicating furnace.
  ○ Benefits: Variable speed fan motor and modulating gas valve for maximum energy savings and minimal heat loss.
  ○ Drawbacks: Higher initial cost, limited thermostat options.

What is Ultra-Low NOx

Ultra-Low NOx technology is a feature designed to significantly reduce the emission of harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) gases from furnaces. This technology employs advanced combustion techniques to minimize NOx emissions, promoting cleaner air and environmental sustainability. It is worth noting that Ultra-Low NOx is now mandated in California for all new furnaces, reflecting the state's commitment to reducing air pollution and meeting stringent emissions standards.

Additional Features

Modern furnaces may also include variable speed blowers and 2-stage heating options for enhanced comfort and efficiency:

● Variable speed blowers: These blowers adjust their speed to match heating or cooling needs, providing consistent airflow, improved indoor air quality, and quiet operation.

● 2-Stage heating: Furnaces with 2-stage heating offer low and high heat output levels, delivering more even heating, reduced temperature fluctuations, and improved energy efficiency.
