Congratulations! In light of rising energy costs, the Plus 90TM, 340MAV, Plus90t™ and Plus 90iTM Multipoise, Gas-Fired, Condensing Furnaces are among the soundest investments today’s homeowner can make.

Your new furnace is truly a triumph of technology in home heating. A revolutionary design employs 2 heat exchangers to “squeeze” out the maxi- mum amount of heat from the fuel con- sumed. In fact, your new furnace is so efficient, over 90%* of the heat gener- ated during combustion is captured and delivered inside your home. That is more than a 33%* increase in heating efficiency over conventional furnaces.

These are among the most energy-effi- cient furnaces you can buy today. They also are among the safest and most dependable. We are proud of the tech- nological advances incorporated into the design of these furnaces. With only minimal care, your new furnace will deliver many years of money-saving home comfort and enjoyment. Spend just a few minutes with this manual to learn the operation of your new fur- nace and the small amount of mainte- nance it takes to help keep it operating at peak efficiency year after year.

*The output capacity and any representations of efficiency for this furnace are based on standard U.S. Department of Energy test procedures.
