Refer to the latest editions of the National Fuel Gas Code NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 (in the USA) and the Canada National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA B149.1 and CAN/CSA B142.2 (in Canada).

4 Minimum Circuit Ampacity = (1.25 x Circulator Blower Amps) + ID Blower amps. Wire size should be determined in accordance with National Electrical Codes. Extensive wire runs will require larger wire sizes.

5 Maximum Overcurrent Protection Device refers to maximum recommended fuse or circuit breaker size. May use fuses or HACR-type circuit breakers of the same size as noted.

Notes:

All furnaces are manufactured for use on 115 VAC, 60 Hz, single-phase electrical supply.

Gas Service Connection ½” FPT

Important: Size fuses and wires properly and make electrical connections in accordance with the National Electrical Code and/or all existing local codes.

NOTES:

*These furnaces are manufactured for natural gas operation. Optional Kits are available for conversion to propane gas operation.

*For elevations above 2000 ft. the rating should be reduced by 4% for each 1000 ft. above sea level. The furnace must not be derated, orifice changes should only be made if necessary for altitude.

*The total heat loss from the structure as expressed in TOTAL BTU/HR must be calculated by the manufactures method in accordance with the "A.S.H.R.A.E. GUIDE" or "MANUAL J-LOAD CALCULATIONS" published by the AIR CONDITIONING CONTRACTORS OF AMERICA. The total heat loss calculated should be equal to or less than the heating capacity. Output based on D.O.E. test procedures, steady state efficiency times output.

Unit specifications are subject to change without notice. ALWAYS refer to the unit's serial plate for the most up-to-date general and electrical information.

Goodman Mfg GDS8, GHS8 service manual Furnace Specifications

GHS8, GDS8 specifications

Goodman Manufacturing, a well-reputed name in the HVAC industry, offers a comprehensive range of heating and cooling solutions. Among their notable products are the GDS8, GHS8, and GMS8 series, each designed to meet diverse customer needs while providing exceptional performance and energy efficiency.

The Goodman GDS8 gas furnace is known for its remarkable efficiency and reliability. Boasting an AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) rating of up to 80%, the GDS8 converts a significant portion of fuel into usable heat, ensuring lower energy bills for homeowners. This model features a multi-speed blower motor that optimizes airflow, enhancing temperature consistency throughout the home, and reducing noise levels during operation. The GDS8 comes equipped with a durable heat exchanger crafted from high-quality steel, ensuring longevity and optimal heat transfer.

On the other hand, the GHS8 series represents Goodman’s commitment to high-efficiency heating. With an AFUE rating of up to 96%, the GHS8 is engineered for maximum performance. Its two-stage heating system allows for better temperature control, enabling the furnace to operate quietly and efficiently. Another standout feature is the ComfortBridge technology, which enhances the system’s ability to communicate and adapt to the home’s specific heating needs. This feature optimizes energy usage and increases comfort levels in any environment.

The Goodman GMS8 model is an exceptional choice for homeowners looking for a reliable gas furnace with a focus on energy efficiency. Similar to its counterparts, the GMS8 also delivers an AFUE of up to 96.5%. This unit features an advanced modulating gas valve that adjusts heating output based on the temperature requirements, creating a consistent and comfortable indoor climate. The GMS8 is also equipped with a high-efficiency ECM blower motor, which reduces energy consumption while improving airflow.

All three models feature Goodman’s quality construction, including a heavy-gauge cabinet that minimizes noise and enhances durability. They also are backed by Goodman’s limited lifetime warranty on the heat exchanger and a 10-year limited warranty on parts, providing customers with peace of mind regarding their investment. These furnaces are designed with efficiency and comfort in mind, making the GDS8, GHS8, and GMS8 ideal choices for homeowners looking to enhance their indoor environment while keeping energy costs in check.
