All About the Lennox EL195E Gas Furnace

Energy-efficiency is one of the main features smart homeowners are considering when buying a new furnace. They understand the fact that even if they have to invest more in buying a high-efficiency unit, that cost will eventually be compensated with lower monthly utility bills and fewer instances of system breakdowns.

If you have a furnace that is due for a replacement, you should call your trusted heating company in Grant MN. Four Seasons Air Specialists is one of the most reliable names in home comfort in the area.

Overview

Varying gas furnace efficiency requirements and labels are used for certain regions of the country. In the southern part of the U.S., where homes usually need less heating, certified gas furnaces will be labeled with a unique “U.S. South” ENERGY STAR logo. These systems will be up to 11 percent more efficient than standard furnaces and can save an average $27 in energy costs annually.

On the contrary, approved gas furnaces in the northern part of the country will be labeled with the standard ENERGY STAR logo. These systems will be up to 15 percent more energy efficient than regular models and can save up to $75 in energy costs per year.

How Does a Furnace Receive the ENERGY STAR Label?

In order for a product to receive the ENERGY STAR label, it should meet strict energy efficiency requirements set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). When you buy an ENERGY STAR-approved furnace and take steps to optimize its performance like regular maintenance, you can improve your home’s comfort while saving energy in the process. This causes you to have lower energy costs and help protect nature by preventing harmful carbon pollution and minimizing other greenhouse gases.

The EL195E’s Power Saver™ motor operates at constant torque to help maintain consistent airflow. Compared to standard motors, its constant torque motor is 33 percent more energy-efficient.

Power Saver technology not only provides energy boost capabilities improving the overall system efficiency, similar to a variable speed furnace, but also delivers higher SEER ratings in cooling mode. In continuous fan mode, this technology helps keep energy waste to a minimum.

Compared to older, low-efficiency models, the EL195E has an efficiency rating of up to 95 percent AFUE that can save you hundreds of dollars in heating costs per year.
