ThermoPride Gas Furnace Reviews - ThermoPride is famous for its oil furnaces but ThermoPride does produce a full-line of HVAC products including gas furnaces to compliment the ThermoPride oil furnaces. For gas furnaces, ThermoPride offers several models of gas furnaces from 80% AFUE to fully modulating 97% AFUE gas furnaces. That’s it. ThermoPride only has a few models and claims that they don’t focus on competing with the competition in the HVAC market as much as they focus on quality. (more…)
Trane Gas Furnace Reviews - There are six specific models of gas furnaces with efficiency ratings ranging from 80% AFUE to 97.3% AFUE. Trane is one of the biggest HVAC manufacturers in the US and one of the only HVAC manufacturers who produce their own compressors for air conditioners and heat pumps. Other HVAC manufacturers use compressors manufactured specifically by a compressor manufacturer like Copeland or Bristol. (more…)
Trane XC Communicating Gas Furnace Reviews - Consumer Ratings - Trane’s top dog gas furnace is not the highest-rated gas furnaces as far as efficiency is concerned (The XV two-stage is rated at 96+ AFUE) coming rated at 95% AFUE but it does have one additional feature that other gas furnace offerings from Trane do not have.

Trane XL90 Gas Furnace Reviews - Coming in at 92% AFUE the Trane XL90 gas furnace is close to being the 92% AFUE the higher end furnaces produce as far as efficiency. The XL90 gas furnace also has two-stage heat and a four-speed blower. Both are good especially if the blower is controlled properly. Granted it is not like an ECM Variable speed blower but it does have different speeds so you can run it at a slower speed and then a higher speed if necessary. (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.
