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.

ThermoPride calls it their Spirit series gas furnaces. The Spirit series is their top-of-the-line gas furnace and is a modulating gas furnace which means it will give an output based on demand which is a good thing for the end consumer. A single-stage gas furnace will turn on and run at 100% and then when the thermostat satisfies it will shut down only to come on again when the thermostat calls for heat and run at 100%.
A modulating gas furnace can run at 40% or 60% or 100% based on the demand that the structure needs to keep a set point. This can equal savings for you as long as the system is installed and controlled properly. That means hiring a competent HVAC contractor to do the installation.
ThermoPride has been in business for more than 50 years and they take pride in producing low-cost high-quality HVAC equipment.

Problems from day 1 1st the transformer and now 3yrs down the line it wont ignite warranty only covers the parts not the installation costing me double of what the parts cost.
3 year old gas furnace. broke down only replacing parts. were is warranty and not replacing entire unit. on and off past two months. spending many nights in motels.
I purchased my Thermopride oil furnace in 1997. I’ve had to replace the fan motor a couple of times and the transformer. Neither of those parts were manufactured by Thermopride. It did leak a little oil, but that was fixed too. It warms my house in a matter of minutes. I wasn’t happy that I had to replace some parts, but, I’m warm and happy.
You may want to check on whether your air return system is balanced. I had to replace the fan motor three times in my furnace before I learned that you have to have equal opportunity for air to go in and come out, or the blower will strain itself. Since I added an additional return, I have not had a fan burn out, in about 15 years.
I am a Home owner and HVAC contractor, retired, I have a Thermo pride heater in my home, I need to have some technical assistance in working on my unit. Can you please give me a phone number to get technical assistance?
That’s funny, I was just having a discussion with a friend of mine about different tech supports for different HVAC manufacturers and he was complaining about waiting long periods of time before anyone would call him back. Probably a good idea for an article and to interview some companies about this issue. My experience and opinion with most tech support hotlines is not good. Most of the time I got someone with a foreign accent and it sound as if they were reading from a book when they tried to answer my question. Nearly all of them sounded as if they never work on equipment let alone give me the confidence that they even knew what they were talking about. Kind of glad I’m in a different part of HVAC that doesn’t require that sort of thing. Anyhow, my best advice would be to call the local dealer. Otherwise try the calling the corporate office number and ask them for tech support number. I never had any reason to call tech support for ThermoPride because in the area where I work there are not that many.
