Fine-tune your environment

The EL280E gas furnace features two-stage operation using a bigger flame when heating demands are greater, and a smaller flame when they’re not, so you get more even temperatures and lower gas usage.

Efficient and versatile

The EL280E gas furnace has an 80% AFUE* energy rating, which can significantly reduce your heating costs compared to older furnaces. And because it’s dual-fuel capable, you can pair it with a Lennox heat pump for even more efficient operation.

Dual-fuel operation for greater efficiency

For even greater efficiency, pair your furnace with a Lennox heat pump. This creates a heating system that can switch back and forth between electricity and gas automatically, based on whichever is most cost-efficient for the weather conditions at the time.
Dual-fuel operation for greater efficiency
  • * AFUE, or Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency, is a measure of how much usable heat is generated when natural gas is burned in the furnace. The higher the AFUE, the more heat you’ll get from your natural gas, and the less gas you’ll have to use to stay warm.
