THERMOSTAT MENU

If this furnace is installed with a CT compatible heat pump, the system is recognized as a dual fuel system. The balance point temperature should be set via the thermostat advanced menu. Navigate to the THERMOSTAT menu. Press the INSTALLER CONFIG key. Navigate to the SETUP menu and press the IN- STALLER CONFIG button. Navigate to dF BAL PNT. Adjust the dual fuel system balance point using the back/forward ar- rows.

DIAGNOSTICS

Accessing the furnace’s diagnostics menu provides ready ac- cess to the last six faults detected by the furnace. Faults are stored most recent to least recent. Any consecutively repeated fault is stored a maximum of three times. Example: A clogged return air filter causes the furnace limit to trip repeatedly. The control will only store this fault the first three consecutive times the fault occurs. Navigate to the diagnostics menu as described above in Accessing and Navigating the Advanced Features Menus.

NOTE: It is highly recommended that the fault history be cleared when performing maintenance or servicing the furnace.

NETWORKTROUBLESHOOTING

Communications is achieved by taking the difference between two dc signals. The signals and transmission lines are referred to as “data 1” and “data 2”. Each transmission line is biased to approximately 2.5Vdc. During data reception/transmission, the data lines vary between +5V and ground. (When data 1 is in- creasing towards +5V, data 2 is decreasing towards ground and when data 1 is decreasing towards ground, data 2 is increasing towards +5V. Typically, the data 1 line is approximately 2.6Vdc and the data 2 transmission line is approximately 2.3Vdc. The voltage difference between data 1 and data 2 is typically 0.2 to 0.6 Vdc.

The indoor control is equipped with a bank of three dipswitches that provide biasing and termination functions for the communi- cations transmission lines. The outdoor control in the CT™ compatible unit is equipped with a bank of two dipswitches that provide termination functions for the communications transmis- sion lines. Communications errors will result if these switches are not correctly set. The table below indicates the switch posi- tion for the bias and termination dipswitches along with the ex- pected voltages. Note that the ON position is the correct posi- tion for all bias and termination dipswitches.

The ComfortNet system is a fully communicating system, and thus, constitutes a network. Occasionally the need to trouble- shoot the network may arise. The integrated furnace control has some on-board tools that may be used to troubleshoot the net- work. These tools are: red communications LED, green receive (Rx) LED, and learn button.

•Red communications LED – Indicates the status of the network. The table below indicates the LED status and the corresponding potential problem.

•Green receive LED – Indicates network traffic. The table below indicates the LED status and the corresponding potential problem.

•Learn button – Used to reset the network. Depress the button for approximately 2 seconds to reset the network.

MVC95, CVC9/95 specifications

Goodman Manufacturing has established itself as a leader in the HVAC industry, and among its stellar lineup, the Goodman CVC9/95 and MVC95 stand out for their remarkable features, technologies, and efficiency.

The Goodman CVC9/95 is a high-performance gas furnace, designed for homeowners seeking reliability and cost-effective heating solutions. It operates with an impressive 95% Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE), which means that a significant portion of the fuel it consumes is converted into heat. This level of efficiency not only contributes to lower energy bills but also reduces greenhouse gas emissions, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

One of the standout features of the CVC9/95 is its multi-speed ECM blower motor. This technology adjusts the airflow according to the heating demands of the home, ensuring consistent and comfortable temperatures. The ECM motor also operates quietly, enhancing the comfort of your living space without the disruptive noise often associated with traditional furnaces.

The MVC95, on the other hand, offers similar efficiency with its also 95% AFUE rating. This model is equipped with a patented ignition system that enhances reliability with minimal maintenance needs. Its durable construction includes a heavy-gauge steel cabinet and an insulated blower compartment that minimizes heat loss. This design not only supports optimal performance but also contributes to its longevity.

Both models come with a self-diagnostic control board that provides straightforward troubleshooting capabilities, making it easier for technicians to ensure that your system is operating at peak performance. This feature aids in timely maintenance, which is crucial for extending the lifespan of the unit.

Additionally, Goodman backs their products with a strong warranty, offering a lifetime limited warranty on the heat exchanger and a 10-year limited parts warranty. This assurance provides homeowners peace of mind regarding their investment.

In the landscape of HVAC solutions, the Goodman CVC9/95 and MVC95 models exemplify a commitment to quality, efficiency, and advanced technology. Whether for new constructions or replacements, these furnaces offer superior heating performance coupled with modern conveniences, making them an invaluable choice for homeowners seeking effective climate control solutions. With their low emissions and high efficiency, choosing Goodman means investing in both comfort and sustainability.
