Heating Savings
Features
Balanced comfort and efficiency
While most furnaces are single stage, meaning they're either on or off, this furnace can heat at two different speeds. Most of the time the unit will meet heating needs at its lower speed, resulting in balanced and consistent temperatures with lower energy use.
Energy efficiency that adapts to meet your needs.
Equipped with an efficient variable-speed blower motor with the ability to slowly ramp the airflow up or down to provide consistently even temperatures as it only produces the necessary amount of airflow at any given time.
Powerful energy savings.
Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency, or AFUE, measures how efficiently your furnace uses fuel. An energy rating of up to 97% AFUE means this furnace can lower your energy bills by 20% compared to a standard furnace, while still keeping your home warm and quiet. It may even help you qualify for energy rebates.
Federal Tax Credit Eligible
This product is eligible for the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit (Internal Revenue Code Section 25C), a federal tax credit provided to homeowners who install high-efficiency equipment. You can potentially receive hundreds of dollars with tax credits. Consult your tax professional to confirm eligibility.

EL297V Gas Furnace
Quiet, efficient, smart.
December 17, 2024I waited two years to write this review because I know it takes time to break in a furnace, just like a car. Immediately after installation, I noticed that the system was a lot quieter, and as the months went on, even when the unit was tested in the hottest and coldest, my utility bills were a reasonable amount less. This is the third furnace I’ve had installed in my home and what I’ve come to understand as a police officer that knows nothing about Hvac, is that the bulk of the issues that I had with my previous two systems were due to poor installations, my system not being maintained, nor was it commissioned properly when it was installed (in addition to having just downright poor quality equipment). Years of dealing with my local HVAC technicians, they taught me that if a system isn’t sized, calibrated, commissioned or installed correctly, they will always have issues, No matter the brand name or efficiency. And I believe them since my last two systems, both had nothing but issues and only lasted 12 years.Two years in and ive had my HVAC technicians out only to do standard clean and checks. Very happy with my purchase.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Great product
November 12, 2024I was initially nervous about this product after reading the reviews online. I walked through the reviews with a contractor I trust and they felt like a lot sounded installer error related. My systems been in and running for several months not and it’s fantastic. I have not had any issues with sound level or any call backs.
Yes, I recommend this product.
