Staying warm and comfortable at home is a must during Minnesota winters. Since the cold season here can get really chilly, you should ensure your home has its first line of defense against the cold: your furnace. However, if your old furnace is no longer up for the task, you should start looking for a replacement now to avoid major inconvenience later.
Marsh Heating and Air Conditioning is your reliable heating company in Chanhassen MN. In partnership with Lennox, we offer a full range of high-efficiency furnaces, led by the SLP99V, a modulating gas heating system.
What is modulating gas furnace?
A high-efficiency gas furnace equipped with a modulating gas valve and variable-speed blower delivers outstanding efficient and economical heating performance. Unlike a single-stage gas furnace that runs ‘always ON’ or ‘always OFF,’ a modulating, variable-speed gas furnace lowers energy usage by operating at the lowest possible fan speed, and producing just the right amount of heat to maintain a consistent, comfortable temperature throughout your home.
Features of the SLP99V Variable-Capacity Gas Furnace
Not only is the SLP99V gas furnace part of the Dave Lennox Signature® Collection, but it’s also part of the Ultimate Comfort System™. It combines the best of everything Lennox has to offer to create an unprecedented whole-home comfort system that seamlessly and intelligently works together to stay finely tuned to your home and deliver consistently clean, perfect air.
Impressive Performance
Precise Comfort® technology allows the furnace to keep the temperature held exactly where you want it. Heat is even throughout your home, with no cold spots. If it sounds perfect, it’s because it is.
Energy Efficiency
AFUE (annual fuel utilization efficiency) rating is the measure by which a system’s ability to convert gas into heat is evaluated. It indicates the percentage of the fuel consumed that is actually used for generating heat. In layman’s terms, the higher the AFUE rating, the greater the savings.
More efficient than anything the industry has ever seen, this premier furnace boasts an efficiency rating of up to 99%—that means it essentially converts every last bit of energy it uses into heating the home.
This furnace has also been designated as one of the Most Efficient ENERGY STAR® certified products in 2021. Products that are recognized as the Most Efficient of ENERGY STAR in 2021 prevent greenhouse gas emissions by meeting rigorous energy efficiency performance levels set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
For greater energy efficiency, this modulating furnace comes with a primary and secondary heat exchanger. The secondary heat exchanger searches for whatever heat energy is left from the combustion gases after they pass through the main heat exchanger. As a result, it turns more of its fuel into usable energy for your home.
Silent Operation
Even with all of its impressive power, this furnace is the quietest you can buy and has been engineered to run at variable speed to drastically minimize the sound of air kicking on or off inside the home.
Its SilentComfort technology combines advanced engineering with sound-absorbing components to deliver the best in quiet performance. Compared to other competitive models, the SLP99V is way quieter, promoting a good night’s sleep.
SilentComfort™ is achieved by using variable-speed technology. In other words, it offers both a high and low speed. Since the low-speed setting is enough to meet household-heating demands approximately 80 percent of the time, the furnace is much quieter than a conventional single-stage furnace.
The SLP99V packs a fully insulated cabinet with patented noise-reducing construction that further minimizes operating sound to an industry-leading low level.
Smart Thermostat Compatibility
With the help of the iComfort® S30 ultra-smart thermostat, the SLP99V gas furnace unlocks a world of connectivity. It stays finely tuned to your home by using sensors to react, diagnose, and troubleshoot all while remaining in constant contact with your dealer to ensure proactive responses. Geofencing technology ensures your air turns on and off as you come and go. And the system even responds to the outdoor environment to adjust operation to account for factors like pollen and outdoor air quality.
