Noncondensing furnaces are less efficient than condensing furnaces
at extracting heat from the exhaust gases produced by the furnace.
This lowers their overall efficiency, as this non-extracted heat
escapes out of the building.
As a side effect, noncondensing furnaces need to be vented through a chimney,
since the exhaust gases are often very hot.
