A standard
single-stage furnace has one temperature level that it uses
to heat your home. This creates a “jackrabbit” effect
as your furnace stops and starts more often, resulting in greater
extremes of heat and cold. Two-stage furnaces begin heating
at a lower temperature, increasing the temperature only as needed
to heat your home. The benefits to you are:
A more evenly and
consistently heated home
Greater energy efficiency
(lower heating bills!)
Variable
Speed Fan Motor
This
often works hand in hand with two-stage heating. A variable
speed fan motor operates at a slower and more efficient speed
the majority of the time, increasing speed only when absolutely
necessary to heat the home. The benefits to you are:
A more evenly heated
home
Smooth, quiet operation
Lower electric bills
as the variable speed motor is more efficient than the single
speed
Better humidity conditions
as the single-stage fan typically results in air conditions
that are too dry
Insulated
Blower Compartment
This
is a great noise reduction feature that nearly eliminates the
normal fan noise of your furnace.
Variable
Speed Draft Inducer Motor
The draft
inducer motor ventilates air out of your system and creates
the needed draft coming into your system.
A variable speed draft
inducer motor works hand in hand with the variable speed blower
to better control
circulation in your home. It is also much
more efficient than a single-stage draft inducer motor. The
benefits
to you are:
A more evenly heated
home
Smooth, quiet operation
Lower electric bills
(the variable speed fan consumes less power!)
80%
Efficiency
Though
this efficiency rating is the same as a standard grade furnace,
the variable speed fan motors and two-stage heating operation
distribute this heat more evenly and more efficiently making
you more comfortable and saving you more money.
