All About the Lennox ML193 Gas Furnace

During the cold months, your furnace works for the greater part of the day, of not 24/7. Therefore, It is essential to have a furnace that runs as efficiently as possible to ensure your home is both warm and your family is safe. However, there will come a time when your furnace will fail and cause you a lot of problems. These issues may include hot and cold spots, higher repair and utility costs, frequent sickness in the family, and even the risk of starting a fire. You don’t want any of that, for sure.

To avoid these risks, you may want to consider replacing your old furnace, particularly with a brand new, high-efficiency unit.

This article talks about the ML193, a high-efficiency gas furnace form Lennox’s Merit Series of heating systems.

Understanding High-Efficiency Furnaces

Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) rating is a measure by which a furnace’s efficiency in converting fuel into heat is rated. A furnace with an efficiency rating of 90 percent AFUE is considered a high-efficiency model. Such a furnace creates 90 percent of heat per unit of fuel and the remaining 10 percent goes up the chimney.

Also called a condensing furnace, it uses a second heat exchanger to collect heat from the exhaust gases that would be otherwise be vented out of your home with less efficient systems. Low and mid-efficiency furnaces do not have this feature.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, more efficient models are required in the U.S. North Region due to the colder climate and greater number of heating degree days.

The ML193 has a Duralok Plus heat exchanger that is constructed from patented ArmorTuf steel that captures waste heat, and a stainless steel secondary heat exchanger that allows the unit to achieve industry-leading efficiency levels. This solid component exceeds industry requirements and extends the furnace’s life.

Its SureLight® ignitor is designed with silicon nitride construction for long product life and reliable operation.

Its SureLight® integrated control board ensures full control of furnace operation.
