Heil QuietComfort VS95 Gas Furnace Reviews - The Heil VS 95 Gas Furnace is Energy Star rated and is rated 95% AFUE for efficiency. This is the top of the line for Heil gas furnaces and since Heil is owned by ICP which is owned by Carrier’s parent company I would expect some good research and development by one of those companies before they release any products especially gas furnaces. This model of the furnace has been changed. This is an archived review of this particular furnace may or may not be available. (more…)
Heil Gas Furnace Reviews - Heil has a wide range of gas furnaces ranging from 80% AFUE to 98% AFUE with the top of the line Heil being a modulating gas furnace. Their gas furnaces can be matched with a heat pump condensing unit for a dual fuel heat pump system that some manufacturers call a Hybrid heat pump system. (more…)
Lennox Gas Furnace Reviews - Lennox has several gas furnaces available from economical low efficient furnaces to high-efficiency high-dollar gas furnaces. Their gas furnaces range from 80% AFUE all the way up to 98.7% AFUE.
They are considered a premium furnace maker and HVAC equipment producer. The dealer network is strategically located all over the US and Canada so parts availability if parts are needed, can be shipped overnight if the dealer does not have the part stocked. (more…)
Maytag Gas Furnace Reviews - Maytag HVAC equipment, including gas furnaces, are produced by Nordyne. The relationship between Maytag and Nordyne is not clear - does Nordyne lease the name Maytag for the products they produce, or does Maytag own Nordyne. Finally, perhaps we find the answer for you soon to keep you updated.
I was surprised when researching gas furnaces that list their highest efficiency gas furnace at 96% AFUE. Furthermore, this is a good AFUE rating for a gas furnace by an HVAC manufacturer. Finally, there is also no listing on the site that they are a member of AHRI, which certifies manufacturer efficiency claims.(more…)
Rheem Gas Furnace Reviews - Rheem has 20 plus gas furnaces in the Rheem line-up ranging in efficiency ratings from 80% AFUE to 96% AFUE in Rheem’s 90+ gas furnaces. They use the Prestige Series name to describe their premium gas furnaces, the Value-Line Series to describe their mid-range efficiency model gas furnaces, and the Classic Series to describe their economy model gas furnaces. Some of Rheem’s gas furnaces come with limited lifetime warranties while others come with 20-year limited warranties. (more…)
Rheem RGTK Series 90 Plus Gas Furnace Reviews - Rheem has several gas furnaces in their line-up so we simply picked the RGTK gas furnace at random to review. We will get to others in the near future for review. The Rheem RGTK gas furnace is rated for 90% AFUE which puts it in the mid-range for efficiency levels for comparable gas furnaces. The RGTK has two firing rates. At low-fire it is 70% and at high-fire, it is 100%. When used in conjunction with a two-stage thermostat the low-fire will offer you heat on mild days saving the high-fire for the coldest days. (more…)
Ruud Gas Furnace Reviews - Ruud has nearly the same gas furnace product line-up as Rheem simply because Rheem is the parent company for Ruud. The furnaces are nearly the same in build and color, and the only real difference is the name of the unit and the model numbers. We hope the Ruud gas furnace reviews page helps you make a better decision for your purchase.
I am sure we could find design differences between them, but taking a cursory comparative look at the two we observe no differences in the design of their gas furnaces. I know both of Rheems and Ruud’s Web sites are slow, sometimes dysfunctional, and cumbersome to navigate even with a high-speed internet connection. Aside from that, the two companies produce quality products.
Tempstar Two-Stage Gas Furnace Reviews - The Tempstar IIS 90 Two-Stage Gas Furnace in model series T9MPT Tempstar gas furnace line-up offers up to efficiency up to 92% and is listed as an Energy Star rated gas furnace.
This is an archive review. This particular model may or may not be available.
The key feature of the Tempstar IIS 90 Two-Stage gas furnace aside from the efficiency of the furnace is the lifetime warranty on the heat exchanger. The 7-year no-hassle replacement warranty is okay but I have reservations about it. (more…)
Tempstar Gas Furnace Reviews - Tempstar gas furnaces range in efficiency ratings from 80% AFUE to 97% AFUE. Tempstar’s parent company is United Technologies which is the same company that owns Heil, Carrier, and Bryant so Tempstar has some characteristics in their products that are similar to those individual HVAC manufacturers. Features of various Tempstar Gas Furnaces are (please see the individual reviews for the particular model of gas furnace you intend on purchasing. If it is not listed on this site please email us and we will do a technical review for you on the particular model of Tempstar gas furnace): (more…)
HVAC Tip - A thermocouple is commonly used in standing pilot gas furnaces and water heaters are technically referred to as a copple element and produces millivolts when heat is applied to the tip. This millivoltage is necessary to keep the pilot valve inside the gas valve open. If the pilot flame goes out, the thermocouple stops generating millivolts. Without the millivolts, the valve closes thus preventing gas from escaping when there is no flame. Thermocouples fail because of oxidation. It is recommended that you keep the pilot lit throughout the year to prevent excess oxidation. The thermocouple can be found in many different types of gas furnaces, gas logs, and gas water heaters.
