GOETTL DSA072NH3R* Furnace

The GOETTL DSA072NH3R* is a natural gas furnace. Its efficiency rating of 90.4% AFUE makes it a high-efficiency model. The first year that this furnace appears in our records is 2000.

This same model of furnace is marketed under the Crown and Goettl brands.

High efficiency furnaces are also known as "condensing" furnaces. This is because the gases generated by the furnace's initial combustion are forced through a series of pipes, where they give up more and more of their heat. Eventually, these gases cool enough that their water vapor condenses into liquid water, and is discarded. The extra efficiency of these furnaces is due to their ability to capture heat during this "condensing" phase.

One disadvantage of condensing furnaces is that they need a drain to discard the (often quite acidic) condensed water that is generated as the furnace extracts heat from water vapor.
