Better Gas Furnaces
80% AFUE Two-Stage
Two-Stage Technology That Quietly Up-Stages
The Rest.
On mild days, which statistically average about 80% of the
heating season, a furnace that idles down to a reduced-heating
capacity improves comfort and reduces sound.
Tappan's Tech2 Series two-stage furnaces are built with this
purpose in mind. In the first stage, or low-fire mode, these
furnaces use only about 68% of their total heating capacity
running more slowly and quietly. Then, during colder extremes--when
maximum output is finally needed-a second stage boosts fuel
flow while the blower powers up to maximum speed.
Since air is circulated at longer cycles more continuously,
room temperatures are balanced and more comfortably mixed. Temperature
swings are reduced to barely a couple of degrees and hot and
cold spots are reduced.

Breathe Easy, Save Big.
Comfort is nice, but saving money on monthly
heating costs is even better. An economical two-stage
furnace can also reduce your energy bills by hundreds
of dollars each season when compared to older, inefficient
furnaces. So when utility bills come due, you can breathe
a lot easier.
Dollar amounts
computed at $.092 ccf, for 2,000 full-load heating hours
and a system rated at 60,000 Btuh. Actual savings may
vary depending on climate conditions, fuel rates, and
patterns of usage according to individual lifestyle.
