What is a high efficiency gas furnace?

If you are in the market for a new furnace, you may have heard the term “high-efficiency” being thrown around. But what does that mean? A high-efficiency furnace is simply a furnace that is more efficient than the standard model, 90% AFUE or higher. This means that it will use less energy to heat your home, which will save you money on your monthly utility bills. Let’s discuss the benefits of high-efficiency furnaces and how to choose the right one for your home!

There are many benefits to owning a high-efficiency furnace. One of the most obvious benefits is that you will save money on your energy bills. A high-efficiency furnace can save you up to 30% on your heating costs, which can add up to a significant amount of money over the course of a year. In addition to saving money, high-efficiency furnaces are also much better for the environment. Because they use less energy, they produce fewer emissions and help to reduce your carbon footprint. A new gas furnace will often come with an extended warranty, so you won’t have to worry about untimely or expensive repairs for up to 15 years. 

If you are thinking about purchasing a new high-efficiency furnace, there are a few things that you should keep in mind. 

  • Making sure your home is properly insulated will reduce your fuel consumption and increase the efficiency of your home, reduce drafts and improve comfort.
  • Ensure your ductwork is properly sized. This will reduce noise, extend the life of the equipment, and improve airflow to all areas in your home, reducing cold or hot spots.
  • Each home is different, and a heat loss is needed to decide on the perfect size furnace for your home.
  • Choose a furnace with a high AFUE rating. With 97% efficient furnaces on the market, you’re able to seriously cut down on your gas bills and reduce your carbon footprint. 

By following these tips, you can be sure to choose the right high-efficiency furnace for your home.

A high-efficiency furnace is a great way to save money on your energy bills and help reduce your carbon footprint. If you are thinking about purchasing a high-efficiency furnace, be sure to keep the above tips in mind!
