Goodman Manufacturing introduces ultra-low NOx gas furnaces that not only reduce emissions but also reach up to 96 percent AFUE, high-efficiency heating performance.
Inside the Goodman brand GMES96-U gas furnace, a powerful tandem of a stainless-steel premix burner and Goodman’s stainless-steel, primary heat exchanger with wrinkle bend technology creates an optimal blend of fuel and oxygen, reducing nitrous oxide emissions while improving heating efficiency.
Extremely Durable Heat Exchanger
With up to 96 percent AFUE ratings, nearly all of the fuel’s energy is effectively used to heat the home
In Goodman’s two-step combustion process, first the fuel and air are premixed prior to combustion, then burned on a lower flame. The result is cleaner combustion with more efficient heating. With up to 96 percent AFUE ratings, nearly all of the fuel’s energy is effectively used to heat the home.
The heart of the single-stage furnace features Goodman’s heavy-duty stainless-steel tubular heat exchanger. Its distinctive steel construction is formed using patented wrinkle-bend technology to create an extremely durable heat exchanger designed to heighten heat transfer. A quiet, multispeed ECM motor inside Goodman’s ultra-low NOX gas furnaces automatically adjusts airflow to match comfort needs, reducing energy consumption and system noise, compared to single-stage motors.
Enhanced Energy-Efficient Performance
Also featured: a durable silicon nitride igniter and a self-diagnostic, pre-programmed control board that continuously monitors the system for consistent, reliable operation. Sealed combustion enhances the unit’s quiet, enhanced energy-efficient performance by adding heat to the indoor air, not by exchanging it with outdoor air. Thermally-insulated cabinets provide air leakage of less than two percent.
Available in upflow or horizontal, Goodman’s new ultra-low NOx gas furnaces comply with California’s low-NOx emissions regulations Certified at 3.8 ng/J. All Goodman brand heating and cooling systems are designed, engineered and assembled in the United States.
