97% AFUE

With one of the highest efficiencies possible with today’s technology, Goodman saves you a lot of money in utility bills for the lifetime of the unit. The GMVM970803BN gas furnace is 97% efficient, meaning that a whopping 97% of the gas going into the furnace is used to heat your home, and only 3% of the fuel going into the furnace is lost out of the exhaust. Thanks to its efficiency, the GMVM970803BN is a condensing furnace, meaning that it requires plastic or PVC pipe flue venting.

Modulating Variable Speed Furnace

Goodman manufactured the GMVM970803BN gas furnace to utilize the best burner and blower technologies available. With a modulating gas valve and a variable speed blower motor, the GMVM970803BN gas furnace provides the most stable indoor temperatures and the lowest running times possible. The enhanced comfort and small efficiency increase provided by these features make this furnace a part of Goodman’s top of the line series.

Warranty

The Goodman brand allows you to protect your investment with a 10 year parts and hassle free replacement warranty. To provide a longer peace-of-mind, Goodman now offers a phenomenal lifetime heat exchanger warranty. Please note that all Goodman warranties require installation that follows your state and local codes, and the unit must be registered online post-installation on the manufacturer’s website.

Durability and Reliability

Not stopping at an enhanced functionality, Goodman designed the GMVM970803BN with a thermally insulated, heavy-gauge cabinet, providing enhanced protection and lowers air leakage to less than 2% to maximize heat transfer and efficiency, as well as to lower the sound output from normal operation. Made of silicon nitride, the ignitor on the GMVM970803BN is more durable and efficient than a pilot light. The heat exchanger on this furnace is made of aluminized steel, resulting in a product that balances reliability, durability, and efficiency in one durable cabinet.

Fuel Types

Out of the factory, the GMVM970803BN has a built-in natural gas orifice set. However, an LP conversion kit (found here) can be purchased as an accessory and field-installed if propane is required for your installation.

Installation and Maintenance

For a furnace of such prestige the installation and maintenance may seem daunting, however Goodman has made everything easy for you and your contractor, from the beginning and throughout the unit’s life. To allow for installation in more situations, the GMVM970803BN gas furnace can be installed in the upflow or horizontal orientations. The modulating gas valve is self-calibrating, allowing it to automatically configure for each installation. For ease of maintenance, there is an integrated self-diagnostic control board that continuously monitors the system for any possible issues in operation, reliability, and even efficiency, and if there are any issues, there is an easy-to-read display for you and your contractor to quickly identify the problem and solve it faster.

Moreover, the GMVM970803BN is ComfortNet communicating system compatible, providing more advanced diagnostics, automated maintenance alerts, and enhancing furnace performance when implemented. All of these features allow you to keep more money in your pocket and provides a peace of mind throughout the life of your unit, all while still providing the best comfort that Goodman has to offer with this top of the line furnace.
