Worry-Free From Every Angle.

RHEEM 80% GAS FURNACES

We Thought of Everything... And Then Some.

You told us our existing 80% Gas Furnace line was the best* in its class – but that didn’t stop us from making
it better and even more reliable. We’ve included 20-plus new features** for a completely redesigned, trouble­free furnace that installs easier than ever – and it looks good, too!

360˚ Performance

The new 80% Gas Furnace line delivers a quieter,
more reliable performance that will impress your
most selective customers. Strategically designed
hemmed edges** improve the door seal, assuring
less than 2% air leakage** and less noise. Rubber
vibration isolators** on the motor mounts and a twist
lock wire harness in the blower shelf** also lend to
quieter furnaces. The new line comes with more
system match-ups, which means more options to
meet homeowners’ needs, and fewer SKUs to carry.
And for a complete 360° performance, we included a
smart feature that promises greater reliability than ever
before.

PlusOne™ Ignition System

Extensive research and development went
into optimizing the technology for our
proven Direct Spark Ignition System. The
result is an ignition system that is nine times
more reliable than most hot surface igniters.
This Rheem-exclusive feature is the same
ignition system used on commercial HVAC
equipment and in gas home appliances.
Your customers will enjoy unmatched
durability for years of worry-free operation.

360˚ Integration

EcoNet™

EcoNet is an exclusive technology that allows Rheem heating,
cooling and water heating products to communicate with each
other on one integrated network. In addition to giving homeowners an easy way to control the most
energy-consuming systems in the home – from home or on-the-go – it also makes it faster and
easier for you to accurately install, set up and maintain a complete home comfort system.

360˚ Installability

When dealers talk about what they’re looking for in
an installation, we pay close attention. That’s why the
new 80% Gas Furnace line was designed with unique
features that will make your job quicker and easier.
Our 34" cabinet fits easily in closets, alcoves, crawl
spaces and other tight areas for expanded installation
flexibility. The hemmed edges** of our new furnace
line provide more structural integrity when installed
in a horizontal position. And because each unit is
backward compatible, there’s no need to change the
vent pipe location. To make the job even simpler, our
control boards have dip switches. Set-up is easy and
you won’t waste valuable time looking for lost jumpers!

360˚ Serviceability

Service calls are a breeze with the 80% Gas Furnace
line. You’re going to love the quarter-turn doorknobs**
that get you inside the furnaces quickly – with no tools
required. And once inside, a QR code speeds up the
diagnostics process even more, since you can use
your smartphone or tablet to access the installation
and operations manual, on the spot. The furnace
blower is mounted on a rail system**, and the blower
shelf can be pulled out for service by removing only
two fasteners. Now, that’s easy! The blower capacitor
and transformer have also been relocated for quick
and easy access**. To simplify motor replacement,
we reduced the number of motor types used in the
new line. And our service-friendly heat exchanger
design allows for quick and easy cleaning, since clean
furnaces are long-running furnaces. We even included
a PlusOne feature for unmatched serviceability.

PlusOne™ Diagnostics

A dual combination of 7-segment LED
and EcoNet™-enabled diagnostics makes
this PlusOne feature a service technician’s
dream. Our 7-segment alphanumeric LED
display takes the guesswork out of service
calls. In addition, our R802V models go a
step further and feature a dual 7-segment
LED display. You can diagnose a problem
more accurately for faster service calls
and fewer callbacks. We’re the first in the
industry to include this easy-to-read display
on all product families.

To get instant access to the fault history,
use a dip switch on the control board (or
push button on our R802V models). For
even more serviceability, our R802V models
are enabled with EcoNet diagnostics for fast
and accurate system information.
