Today's Hours 8am - 11pm estAs a high-efficiency system, the GR9T960804CN Goodman gas furnace features many money saving features. The two-stage, 9-speed furnace uses a superior heat exchanger for better heat transfers to your home. Considered one of the best efficiencies on the market, the GR9T960804CN is a good way to go if you want to lower your gas bill.
Heating up to a medium-sized house in normal conditions, the GR9T960804CN Goodman gas furnace has an input of 80,000 BTU's and an output of 76,800 BTU's. The output in this case is determined by taking the input times the efficiency rating.
The GR9T960804CN Goodman gas furnace is a 96% efficient furnace, making it a condensing setup. This efficiency means that only 4% of the fuel going into the furnace is used up in furnace operations, while 96% of the fuel is used to heat your home. As a condensing furnace, this furnace will need to be vented with plastic or PVC flue venting. If you need to use metal flue venting, you would need an 80% efficient furnace.
With a two stage burner, the GR9T960804CN provides two heating outputs: one at a 60% heating output and one at a 100% output. The furnace also has a 9 speed ECM motor instead of the last-generation inefficient PSC motor. Both of these built-in upgrades allow for your furnace to adjust the heating output and airflow more precisely to better suit your home's comfort needs and provide a slightly higher efficiency.
With installation that follows your state and local codes and with online registration, all Goodman furnaces come with a 10-year parts and lifetime heat exchanger warranty through the manufacturer.
The exterior casing on the GR9T960804CN is heavy-gauge steel that is insulated for enhanced protection and to lower air leakage and sound output from normal furnace operation. The hot surface ignitor is more efficient than earlier models and standing pilot lights thanks to its revolutionary new technology. Both of these end up saving you money on installation, maintenance, and bills.
The cost-saving benefits of the Goodman brand doesn't stop at efficiency. The GR9T960804CN Goodman furnace can be upflow or horizontal, increasing the number of ways that your installer can install the system. The low-voltage terminals that are color-coded, the installation is faster and easier over standard non-colored systems. Straight from the factory, the GR9T960804CN comes with natural gas valves. However, increasing its versatility in installation, Goodman offers an LP conversion kit (found here at an additional cost) if you need it to be propane instead of natural gas. Not only does the Goodman brand save you money on installation costs, but also with maintenance and warranty work. In the event of a rare warranty issue, the on board self-diagnostic control board alerts you and your serviceman what is wrong with the unit for most basic issues for a faster solution.
Please note that this furnace requires a drain kit if installed horizontally. Upflow configurations do not require the kit.
Across numerous self-installs and contractor installs, this Goodman furnace—commonly noted in 60,000 to 100,000 BTU and 96% two-stage configurations—replaced units up to 25 years old and delivered quieter operation, faster heating, more even temperatures, and in some cases lower energy bills, with one 80,000 BTU model rated at 96% efficiency (76,800 BTU first stage). Installation was frequently described as straightforward, though some users reported loose or stripped screws, minor cabinet or shipping damage, wiring or sensor setup confusion (including R32/A2L settings and an EE1 pressure sensor error), and occasional delivery communication issues.
