90 HIGH EFFICIENCY
UPFLOW
GAS FURNACES
The Rheem Value Series 90 High Efficiency line of upflow
gas furnaces are designed for utility rooms, closets, or
alcoves. Because of the low-profile 34 inch height, this
model can be used vertically to satisfy most applications that traditionally call for a horizontal furnace.
The design is certified by CSA.
Features
■ Low profile “34 inch” design is lighter and easier to han-
dle and leaves room for optional accessories.
■ Left or right side gas, electric, and condensate drainage
connections on upflow models.
■ Integrated control board manages all operational func-
tions and provides accessory hookups for an electronic
air cleaner.
■ A slow-opening gas valve and a specially designed
inducer system make it one of the quietest furnaces on
the market today.
■ Pre-paint galvanized steel cabinet.
■ Optional indoor or outdoor combustion air. In addition,
combustion air may be piped to either the top or right side
of the cabinet on all upflow models. A special molded fitting is provided to ease installation.
■ Control board diagnostics.
A variety of cooling coils and plenums designed to use with
the Rheem Value Series 90 gas furnaces are available as
optional accessories for air conditioning models.
✝A.F.U.E. (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) calculated in accordance with Department
of Energy test procedures.
