Features

Constant torque, constant efficiency

The Power Saver™ constant-torque motor adjusts airspeed based on demand. This helps the furnace use less energy in both heating and cooling modes.

Powerful energy savings.

Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency, or AFUE, measures how efficiently your furnace uses fuel. An energy rating of up to 96% AFUE means this furnace can lower your energy bills year-round, while still keeping your home warm and quiet. It may even help you qualify for energy rebates.

The perfect amount of quiet.

Made with a fully insulated cabinet, special sound-absorbing materials and sturdy burners to reduce noise, this furnace is designed to operate extremely quietly, so you can relax in peaceful warmth.

Tough and dependable

This furnace is built with a high-quality, heavy-duty steel cabinet and an aluminized steel Duralok Plus™ heat exchanger that is life-tested 2.5 times the standard requirements to ensure high reliability and efficiency.

A refrigerant that’s better for the environment.

This product is compliant with 2025 EPA regulations for lower global warming potential (GWP) refrigerants. The Lennox choice of 2025 Compliant Refrigerant has a lower GWP than its predecessor and is formulated to provide excellent, reliable performance of your system for years to come.
