   In an effort to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that are causing climate change, the Department of Energy on proposed new energy-efficiency standards Monday for residential gas furnaces.

3. Forced-air gas - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced-air_gas

   High-efficiency condensing furnaces condense the water vapor (one of the by-products of gas combustion) and extract the latent heat to pre-heat the incoming furnace airflow, using a second heat exchanger. [2] This increases the efficiency (energy delivered into the building vs. heating value of gas purchased) to over 90%.

   That new rule would sideline noncondensing furnaces, which are less energy efficient, and make newer furnaces mandatory in 2028. DOE has now decided to ban a segment of instantaneous water heaters ...

6. Furnace (central heating) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furnace_(central_heating)

   The fourth category of furnace is the high-efficiency condensing gas furnace. High efficiency condensing gas furnaces typically achieve between 90% and 98% AFUE. [3] A condensing gas furnace includes a sealed combustion area, combustion draft inducer and a secondary heat exchanger. The primary gain in efficiency for a condensing gas furnace, as ...

7. Annual fuel utilization efficiency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annual_fuel_utilization...

   The annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE; pronounced 'A'-'Few' or 'A'-'F'-'U'-'E') is a thermal efficiency measure of space-heating furnaces and boilers.The AFUE differs from the true 'thermal efficiency' in that it is not a steady-state, peak measure of conversion efficiency, but instead attempts to represent the actual, season-long, average efficiency of that piece of equipment ...
