Why You Should Consider Upgrading to the Lennox Elite Series EL296V Gas Furnace

Posted: 2023-11-28

 

Are you in search of a new residential furnace? Look no further than the Lennox EL296V, a model equipped with the benefits of a two-stage heating system. Four Seasons Air Specialists, a licensed heating company in Brooklyn Center, MN, specializes in the distribution and installation of various furnaces, including advanced two-stage models.

Differentiating Single-Stage and Two-Stage Furnaces:

Single-stage furnaces operate at a fixed capacity regardless of weather conditions. In contrast, two-stage systems offer dual capacities—high and low. The low setting is engaged about 75% of the time, ensuring energy-efficient operation and resulting in cost savings for homeowners.

Two-stage furnaces provide more consistent heating throughout homes, minimizing temperature fluctuations. This is in contrast to single-stage furnaces, which release large bursts of heat, creating uneven temperature zones. Additionally, two-stage furnaces reduce the occurrence of "short cycling," a common issue with single-stage units that not only increases energy costs but also shortens equipment lifespan. The improved performance of two-stage furnaces minimizes strain, leading to fewer failures and prolonged unit life.

Moreover, two-stage furnaces enhance air filtering by operating more consistently than their single-stage counterparts. The frequent operation pushes more air through duct networks, ensuring efficient air circulation and improved filtration.
