Elite® Series EL196E Gas Furnace
Single-stage furnace with Power Saver™ technology
The EL196E’s Power Saver™ Constant Torque motor is up to 33% more efficient than standard single-stage motors and up to 200% more efficient in constant fan mode.
Power Saver™ constant torque motor adjusts airspeed based on demand, helping the furnace use less energy in heating and cooling modes.
Improved cooling efficiency-when matched with a Lennox air conditioner or heat pump, the EL196E will improve the system’s SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio).
ENERGY STAR® qualified**
Fully insulated cabinet
Duralok Plus™ heat exchanger
Dual-fuel capability
Limited Lifetime Warranty on heat exchanger, 5-Year Limited Warranty on covered parts and controls
This product may be eligible for valuable 10-Year Limited Extended Warranty coverage
Overview
Here are some of the top features of the EL196E:
Efficiency rating of 96% AFUE can save you hundreds of dollars each year* compared to standard furnaces.
ENERGY STAR® certified which means the furnace meets or exceeds U.S. federal guidelines for energy efficiency.**
Power Saver™ constant torque motor adjusts airspeed based on demand, helping the furnace use less energy in heating and cooling modes. Power Saver technology not only provides energy boost capabilities improving the overall system efficiency, similar to a variable speed furnace, but also delivers higher system SEER ratings.
Fully insulated cabinet ensures quiet, efficient operation.
