80,000 BTU 96% AFUE Two Stage Goodman Gas Furnace | 21" Width | Upflow / Horizontal
OVERVIEW
As 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.
QUICK FACTS
- This furnace is ideal to heat a medium-sized house (depending on climate)
- 80,000 BTU 96% AFUE natural gas furnace
- Requires plastic/PVC flue venting
- Complies with Clean Air Act New Refrigerant Requirements
- Can be used in the upflow or horizontal orientation
- Can be converted to an LP furnace with an optional conversion kit (sold separately)
- Innovative design for electrical efficiency, safety, and lower sound output
80,000 BTU
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.
96% AFUE
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.
Two Stage 9-Speed 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.
Warranty
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.
Durability and Reliability
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.
Installation and Maintenance
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.

Customers Say
Across multiple installations, buyers report quiet operation, smooth startup, and improved efficiency compared to older units, including replacements of 25‑year‑old 55K–100K BTU furnaces with 60K or 80K BTU 96% two‑stage models that heat 1,300 sq ft homes in low‑20°F weather and, in some cases, lowered energy bills. Installation is frequently described as straightforward—even for first‑time DIYers completing jobs in under 6 to 22 hours—though some noted loose screws, minor shipping damage, wiring label visibility issues, sensor or setup adjustments, and occasional delivery communication problems.

- Working so farThe ID fan pressure sensor was not working on the first day, giving an EE1 error, but it cleared by itself on the next day.

- New FurnaceGreat unit! Showed up on time and in great condition. Packaging was excellent and very secure. All pieces were included. Got the plenum kit which came with a lot of metal screws too. Unit hooked up and is working great! I was without heat so having these guys to talk with and sort out details was key to my purchase. Contacting them during shipping to make sure everything was on time was easy and no hassle. Unit was well priced and I feel I got a great deal over all and isn't that what it's all about?
If I ever upgrade and add A/C I'll be buying from here only. Once you treat me right you keep my business until you don't. Only fair.Posted on
- Great furnaceThis furnace is replacing a Goodman I installed in 2002. Everything went smoothly but I wished it would be easier to read the wiring markers. I pretty much had to lay on the floor to see them because they're marked on the bottom not the top of the connections.

- 30 year old Furnace replacementFirst time installing a Goodman, I have replaced quite a few of the older models. Everything hooked up fine only issue was shutting off the R32 sensor , didn't realize i needed to do that until it was to late. Took a few attempts to reset the codes but after a quick video on YouTube from their links it was fixed. Over all I'm very happy with it and so is the customer. It's nice when the install takes less that 6 hours start to finish.

- Easy to Work WithI purchased two furnaces that were delivered promptly. I am very pleased.

- Smooth RunningUnit runs smoothly as you'd expect for a new furnace. It replaced a 70,000 BTU from the late 80's and hasn't had any problems so far with low 20 degree weather in a 1,300 SF northern mid-west home.
My only hits on the quality would be there were several screws loose on the unit randomly all over, so we looked at it closely in case of the feared "Friday or Monday build". Perhaps this happens in shipping, or some fasteners like the gas hookup are left loose for ease of connecting gas first.
The cabinet had some damage I'd assume came during shipping, so it required some field adjustments to get the upper door on straight and hooking up the plenum. Pricing compared with about every other competitor, but the unit was available in stock and the reliability and customer service of HVACDirect won out with us.Posted on
- replacement insallthis is a furnace replacement. our heating installers use this brand all the time. though they were 4k for furnace and install, i figured I would give it a shot myself. it showed up packaged like a tank, so it was well protected, though the delivery company failed to call me prior to showing up, instead they left out in the driveway. unit isn't that heavy, shorter than old one. was pretty easy to install with gas, vents, and wires.
BE SURE to read the tag near the wire terminals about A2L. the furnace ran full fan only. you have to go into setting and tell it no, then it will work as it should. my nest thermostat allows for 2 stage heating which is absolutely amazing. house heats up way quicker, and it runs way less.
I myself being very handy at fixing things, if can do handy things, buy from here as prices are great, and fast shipping, and most things seem in stock a lot.Posted on
