The Goodman GCVM97 High-Efficiency Gas Furnace with modulating gas valve and a variable-speed circulating blower provides efficient and economical performance. Unlike single-stage gas furnaces that operate 'all on' or 'all off,' a Goodman modulating gas furnace typically runs at the lowest possible speed to precisely maintain a constant, steady temperature in your home. A modulating gas furnace optimizes its heating output to maximize indoor comfort and lower energy costs. When operating at low-speed levels, your Goodman gas furnace consumes less energy to keep your home comfortable. In addition, the 97% AFUE rating on this gas furnace means that 97 cents of every $1.00 of heating energy expense warms your home. The Goodman GCVC96 96% AFUE Two Stage, Variable Speed, Downflow or Horizontal ComfortNet Compatible Series GCVM970803BN Gas Furnace Heaters. The Goodman brand is one of the biggest names in home cooling, heating and energy-efficient home comfort.

Advanced Heat Exchanger Design
The GCVM97 furnace employs a reliable dual-diameter tubular heat exchanger design. Aluminized steel is used for incredibly efficient heat transfer, and a wrinkle-bend is applied to the tubes to enhance the heat exchanger's dependability and longevity.

Secondary Heat Exchanger
This furnace produces addition heat by directing combustion gases through a secondary heat exchanger before they are vented. The secondary heat exchanger is made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel and it is sloped to prevent condensate build-up.

Quiet Comfort
The blower of the GCVM970803BN was selected for its incredibly low sound levels. Additionally, this unit offers an airflow system and fan speed options that allow it to operate quietly while providing consistent comfort.

Venting Options
The GCVM970803BN offers several venting options to streamline installation in a variety of applications. It can be used in either a two-pipe direct vent setup or a single-pipe configuration with combustion air.

Secure Cabinet
All GCVM97 furnaces are protected by a durable steel cabinet rated for less than 2% air leakage. The heat exchanger section is insulated to prevent heat loss and the return side of the cabinet is solid and airtight.

ComfortBridge Compatible
This furnace is compatible with Goodman's ComfortBridge communicating controls. ComfortBridge control streamlines the installation and maintenance processes further by automatically detecting your equipment and providing diagnostics and troubleshooting.

Auto-Comfort
Goodman's Auto-Comfort mode is available in applications where the GCVM970803BN is used to distribute cooled air. This mode scales output up to the cooling demand in stages for improved comfort, efficiency, and dehumidification.
