GAS FURNACE
The art of precision
Heavy-Duty Aluminized-Steel Tubular Heat Exchanger – Constructed from tubular
aluminized-steel, the primary heat exchanger is designed for outstanding durability
and heat transfer. The use of wrinkle bend technology maintains the wall strength of the
tubular design and aids in the efficient transfer of heat.
Two-Stage Gas Valve – Reduces energy needed during moderate demand to deliver
outstanding comfort and efficiency as compared to single-stage gas valves.
Goodman gas furnaces simply work the way they’re supposed to,
making each one a thing of beauty.
Self-Diagnostic Control Board – Silently and consistently monitors the gas furnace to
ensure all furnace components are working properly and helps to achieve the energy-
efficient performance too. Also, allows for quick troubleshooting when gas furnace
needs maintenance.
Corrosion-Resistant Vent Variable-Speed Blower – Provides quiet system startup and
shutdown with highly-efficient performance.
Durable Silicon Nitride Igniter – This advanced energy-efficient technology eliminates
the need for a traditional pilot light. The igniter is constructed for both strength and
outstanding reliability.
Insulated Furnace Cabinet – Even the metal walls of this gas furnace support energy-
efficiency. A fully insulated cabinet helps to keep the heat inside the furnace and has less
than a 2% air leakage rate. The insulation also assists with noise suppression when the
furnace is operating.
When your current furnace breaks, it’s good to know that your local, independent
Goodman
®
brand contractor has financing options available to help defray what might
be considered an emergency purchase for your home.
