80,000 BTU, 96% AFUE
The ACiQ N96MSN0801716A has an input of 80,000 BTU. With an efficiency of 96%, this means that the furnace has an output of 76,800 BTU. The 96% AFUE also means that for the gas going into the furnace, 96% of it is used to heat your home while only 4% is lost out of the flue piping and lost to normal furnace operations. All furnaces at this efficiency (90% and above) requires plastic/PVC flue venting, and if metal flue venting is required for your installation, an 80% efficient furnace would be needed instead. While this unit uses natural gas as fuel out of the box, we also have an LP conversion kit, available at an additional cost. Please note that this furnace is not Ultra Low NOx compliant and if shipped to California may be subject to a mitigation fee.
Warranty
ACiQ offers 10 year parts warranty and lifetime (20 year) heat exchanger limited warranty. Please note that in order for these warranties to be upheld, installation following your state and local codes are required, along with timely registration through the manufacturer.
Installation and Durability
With its ability to be installed in any configuration, upflow, downflow, or horizontal, the ACiQ N96MSN0801716A is very versatile in application potential. The unit has a durable outer casing that can withstand wear-and-tear through its entire lifetime, providing the peace of mind that your home will stay comfortable year-round. Please note that this furnace is not intended for use in a mobile home.
Quiet Comfort
Every ACiQ furnace is designed to keep your family warm and comfortable year after year. Whisper-quiet ECM blower fans, solid construction with thicker sheet metal and more cabinet insulation give you near-silent operation. From entry level to top-of-the-line, your comfort is the priority.
High Efficiency
ACiQ saves you money up front, but also over time by reducing energy bills. Multi-speed or Variable Speed ECM blowers come in every furnace. Adding options such as high-efficiency secondary heat exchangers, two stage heating, modulating burners and variable blowers all can further reduce your energy bills while increasing comfort.
Longer life, longer warranty
Thicker sheet metal, more cabinet insulation and aluminized steel heat exchangers reflect the highest build quality you can get. Every furnace is backed by ACiQ’s 10 year, 20 year or lifetime (depending on model) heat exchanger extended warranty with online registration.

Across multiple installs—including 60,000 and 80,000 BTU models—buyers report fast delivery (often in 3–4 days), straightforward DIY installation, and quieter operation with quicker heat-up compared to 17‑ to 30‑year‑old Carrier, Goodman, and oil furnaces, with one 60,000 BTU unit heating a 1,500 sq ft home easily and another reliably heating a 1,700 sq ft bi-level in Illinois for about 5 years. Feedback also notes lower gas bills versus older units, smooth and quiet performance, and solid packaging, while a few customers experienced shipping delays of up to three weeks, minor freight damage, a leaking flexible gas line, a stripped fan screw, duplicate filter housing, or confusion during propane conversion.

Been great so far, fairly simple install. Really happy with it so far. Only issues I had was that it came with the bear air filter housing and they didn't tell me that when I was chatting with them about my order. I ordered the housing separately and ended up with two. Also the flexible gas line I ordered in the install kit leaked badly, you could see a ridge down the flare. Not a big deal though all in all it was good. Got it in about a week, and installed it over the weekend. Efficiency seems great, got this unit to replace my 30 year old broken down furnace.

Purchased a scratch and dent unit, it was dented as advertised when it arrived. Packaging for shipment to me was very well done. Preexisting damage was nothing that affected installation or operation. Has been working for a month now with no issues. Very satisfied.

I got the ACiQ natural gas upflow forced air 80,000 BTU model to replace a failed 20 year old Carrier in my home. I ordered Thursday late afternoon and got it on Monday morning in NJ. I paid for liftgate delivery; the driver brought the unit to my front door. The packaging was fantastic; there were no dents, scratches and damage. Accessories needed to install were all there inside the unit by the blower. The unit is much quieter and simpler design than the one it replaced. It should be easier to maintain. It has been working flawlessly for over a week now. Very happy with my purchase!

The furnace came promptly and it was packaged well so there was no damage. Looking it over, it seems to be good. I won't know how well it works as it is scheduled to be installed for the next heating season. I would buy here again.
ACiQ air conditioning systems, standard heat pumps, and gas furnaces are manufactured by the largest HVAC manufacturer in America, who also happens to be the seller of the nation’s #1 brand. However, because our prices are SO LOW, they will not allow us to mention their name! They must protect their current market share where typical home systems retail between $15,000 to $25,000 for the identical equipment that we let you buy direct for under $3,000. We offer homeowners and contractors the highest quality and best warranty HVAC systems in the industry at the absolute lowest price. With our industry-leading, high-tech ACiQ equipment, your home and your savings just got a whole lot smarter!
What happens if this breaks down?
HVACDirect.com gives you lifetime tech support. Many common problems can be solved with a phone call to us. HVACDirect.com is an authorized dealer of ACiQ, therefore equipment we sell carries the full manufacturer's warranty. The warranty applies to all parts. You have to register the products online in order to extend the warranty to the full 10 years, otherwise the term is 5 years. If a part fails under warranty, you will not pay anything for the replacement part. Should a part fail under warranty, the first step is to have a professional confirm what part needs to be replaced. Then, contact us at customerservice@hvacdirect.com or by calling and asking for customer service.
What happens if it arrives damaged?
If you are present during drop-off and you see obvious signs of damage or rough handling in transit - please ask the driver to wait while you inspect the equipment. If it is damaged badly enough that you believe it can not function, you have the right to refuse the damaged portion of the shipment. If you discover the damage after the driver has left, take photos of the damage and send them to customerservice@hvacdirect.com. Please refer to your order number in the email. This starts the process and one of our representatives will be in touch with you promptly.
How can I find an installer?
It’s easier than you think – the key is to find an independent contractor or small company as opposed to a larger HVAC service. A one or two person outfit will do the work more quickly and cheaply than a bigger company, too. Yelp.com, Thumbtack.com, and Porch.com are websites are designed to help you connect with a professional in your area. You could also place a call to the last professional who did work on your home and see if they have any recommendations.
Is it cheaper to buy a furnace and AC together? (Should I replace my furnace and air conditioner at the same time?)
Remember to factor labor into the budget. Many times the labor can cost as much as the equipment. Therefore, spending a bit more now to replace everything can be less expensive than re-using an older furnace that still works, or putting in a furnace with a plan to ‘add air conditioning later.” By replacing everything at the same time, you will get matching equipment that is all warrantied together. Then you can typically not have to worry about the system for another 15 to 25 years with proper maintenance.
Can this furnace be used with liquid propane?
Yes, but you will need to purchase the liquid propane conversion kit located in the accessories.
