GAS FURNACES

90 PLUS MODULATING UPFLOW GAS FURNACES WITH CONTOUR COMFORT CONTROL
The Rheem Prestige Series 90 Plus High Efficiency line of upflow gas furnaces are designed for utility rooms, closets, or alcoves. Because of the low-profile 34 inch height, the RGFD- model can be used vertically to satisfy most applications that traditionally call for a horizontal furnace. The design is certified by CSA.

RGFD- SERIES

Models with Input Rates from 60,000 to 120,000 BTU/HR [17.58 to 35.16 kW]
(All Models 92% A.F.U.E. or Above)

Features

Modulating Furnace Thermostat

RHC-TST401MDMS

Heat exchanger is constructed of all stainless steel for maximum corrosion resistance and thermal fatigue reliability. s Modulating Function: when used with a modulating thermostat, modulation rate between 40% and 100% of total capacity. s Two-stage Function: when used with a two-stage thermostat, furnace operates at 40% on first stage, and stages up to 65%, then 100% for second stage. s Multistage Function: when used with a single-stage thermostat, furnace functions as a three stage furnace operating at 40%, 65% and 100% of total capacity. s Reduced firing rates, electrically efficient ECM2+ motor, and solid doors provide the ultimate in quiet operation. s Low speed constant fan. s Constant temperature rise for superior comfort. s Seven segment LED for system diagnostics. s Diagnostic history for troubleshooting. s Two-speed induced draft motor. s Direct spark ignition with remote sense. s Top electrical connections, left or right gas and condensate drainage connections on downflow models. s Optional indoor or outdoor combustion air. A variety of cooling coils and plenums designed to use with the Prestige Series 90 Plus gas furnaces are available as optional accessories.
s A.F.U.E. (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) calculated in accordance with Department of Energy test procedures.

If a burner orifice change is necessary, they must be ordered through PROSTOCK. See Installation Instructions for more information. Option 278 furnaces are shipped with #51 DMS orifices installed. This is one drill size smaller than standard furnaces to account for expected average elevations and heating values typically seen in these areas. CAUTION: Always follow National Fuel Gas Code (NFGC) guidelines when converting furnaces for high altitudes. For all installations above 2000 ft. (including all option 278 models), the burner orifice size needs to be recalculated and verified at elevations above 2000 ft. A burner orifice change may still be required. See Installation Instructions for more information. Manifold gas pressure reduction methods to adjust for altitude may NOT be used on these models. The only method permitted on modulating furnace models is to recalculate the burner orifice size. See Installation Instructions for more information.

Before proceeding with installation, refer to installation instructions packaged with each model, as well as complying with all Federal, State, Provincial, and Local codes, regulations, and practices.

How Its Different and Why Its Better.
The Rheem Modulating Gas Furnace Thermostat
One reason for the remarkable performance of the Rheem Prestige Series Modulating Gas Furnace is the unique touchscreen thermostat. This thermostat analyzes the heat loss of your home and directs the furnace to give you the precise temperature at the precise time you desire it. The fresh appearance, and large, lighted, and touchscreen display allows convenient and instant viewing. The thermostat features easy menu-driven programming that allows you to set your weekly temperatures then the option to adjust them for the weekend, when your temperature preferences typically change. The Modulating Gas Furnace Thermostat also has integrated dual fuel capabilities, which means the need for external fossil fuel kits is no longer an issue. The benefits of the Contour Comfort Control System can be fully utilized when used in conjunction with the Modulating Gas Furnace Thermostat.
The very low-speed continuous fan mode minimizes hot or cold spots, maintaining a uniform temperature while it constantly filters the air to help you keep your home cleaner.
With the touch of a button on
the Rheem Contour Comfort Control Thermostat, you can program the desired temperature settings to meet your changing heating requirements throughout the day, and even check the outside air temperature.
While the Rheem Prestige Series 90 Plus Modulating Gas Furnace is a highly sophisticated heating product, the concept behind it is quite simple. A conventional furnace is either off or on at 100% capacity depending on the demand for heat. Thus, the temperature in your home goes up and down, varying as much as five degrees, while the furnace cycles. The Rheem Prestige Series 90 Plus Modulating Gas Furnace is seldom off 1.

Rheem technology provides energy efficiency, which adds up to a lifetime of savings.
While the Rheem Prestige Series 90 Plus Modulating Gas Furnace brings you the latest in comfort technology, it also brings you proven dependability. Before this furnace design was ever released to the general public, it spent several years undergoing arduous testing in the laboratory. Then it was field tested in more than 200 homes across North America, including places with the toughest weather extremes of sub-zero temperature, high wind, high humidity, and high altitude. This is a furnace you can count on, a furnace thats proven itself worthy of the Rheem name. This exhaustive process of bringing you reliable products has helped Rheem exceed the stringent standards of the International Standards Organization and achieve ISO 9001:2000 certification.
