- Innovative design for electrical efficiency, safety, and lower sound output
60,000 BTU
The GCVC960603BN Goodman gas furnace has an input of 60,000 BTU’s. The output of the unit is 57,600 BTU’s (input X efficiency = output). This size of furnace is normally suitable for most medium-sized houses in an ideal climate.
96% AFUE
With one of the highest efficiency ratings available, the GCVC960603BN gas furnace is 96% efficient. At this efficiency, the GCVC960603BN uses only 4% of its gas to operate the furnace itself and 96% of the gas going into the furnace to make your home warm and comfortable. With all gas furnaces at 90% efficiency and above like this one, the flue venting must be plastic or PVC.
Allowing for a more precise air flow output to best suit your home’s needs, the motor on the GCVC960603BN is a variable speed ECM blower motor, the best blower motor that Goodman offers to date. The two stage burner on the furnace allows for a lower output and a higher output for a more precise heat output as needed by your thermostat. Both of these high-end features allow for a small increase in efficiency, but the primary benefits are enhanced comfort and a more stable temperature throughout any season of the furnace’s use.
The GCVC960603BN comes standard with Goodman’s 10 year parts warranty and its exceptional lifetime heat exchanger warranty. In order to maintain this warranty, the installation must follow your state and local codes and the unit must be registered online via Goodman’s website.
The heavy-duty heat exchanger on the Goodman GCVC960603BN gas furnace is designed for constant use to provide enhanced reliability. The aluminized steel structure of this heat exchanger allows for a faster and more efficient heat transfer rate. Moreover, the outer casing on the unit is a heavier gauge of steel, protecting the internals of the furnace and lowering air leakage and furnace operation noise. All of these features enhance comfort and provide durability and reliability for the lifetime of the unit.
The GCVC960603BN furnace runs on natural gas from the factory. When you field-install the optional LP conversion kit (found here at an additional cost), this furnace can use propane instead when the installation requires it. This Goodman furnace is also able to be installed in the downflow or horizontal positions, allowing for a more versatile application potential.
Goodman 1.5 to 2.5 Ton Fixed TXV Kit - R-410A
Thermostatic Expansion Valves (TXVs) are:
- A requirement for 14 SEER or higher split system heat pumps
- A requirement for many condensers or heat pump systems that use the new R-410A refrigerant
- An optional upgrade for any other air conditioner or heat pump system
Your system will operate more precisely and with greater efficiency with a TXV. These valves offer more control over how much liquid refrigerant enters the evaporator coil. The valves only allow a precise amount of liquid into the evaporator coil to ensure that all liquid that enters fully evaporates. This prevents too little liquid from entering the evaporator making the system run less efficiently. It also prevents too much liquid from entering the evaporator which can cause excess liquid in the suction line. Thermostatic Expansion Valves can be mounted in any position on the evaporator coil inlet and are reliable, efficient and virtually trouble-free. Select the TXV to correspond with the tonnage of your air conditioner or heat pump, as well as to match the type of refrigerant your systems uses, R-22 (standard) or R-410A (new alternative).
When using a TXV, manufacturer's recommend also installing a hard-start capacitor in your heat pump or condenser. This capacitor gives an extra "jolt" of electricity upon startup to push the refrigerant against higher head pressures that are present with a TXV system. If a hard-start capacitor isn't installed, the equipment compressor may sometimes have difficulty starting.

- Well doneWe have not yet installed the unit so I cannot attest to the quality or performance just yet. As a salesman myself, I can tell you that I very much appreciated the follow up and status update calls I received during the purchase/shipping process.
Well done in that regard.Posted on
- Happy CamperThe ordering process was easy, the delivery was made with no problems. The furnace was exactly what I needed. It performs even better than I expected. I am glad I upgraded. What a difference it makes with the dehumidifier makes, maybe even as much as the heat itself.
