FURNACES

The Rheem Classic®Series 95% A.F.U.E. with Dual Comfort
Control

™

line of downflow/horizontal gas furnaces are designed for

utility rooms, closets, alcoves, or attics.

The RGTM is shipped in the
downflow configuration and is easily converted for horizontal left-
hand airflow applications.

The design is certified by CSA.

Features

■ Two stages of operation to save energy and maintain optimal com-

fort level.

■ Furnace operates at 70% capacity for low-heat and 100% capacity

for high-heat.

■ Compatible with single or two-stage thermostat. (For optimal perfor-

mance a two-stage thermostat is recommended.)

■ Heat exchanger is constructed of all stainless steel for maximum

corrosion resistance and thermal fatigue reliability.

■ Low profile “34 inch” design is lighter and easier to handle and

leaves room for optional accessories.

■ Left or right side gas, electric, and condensate drainage connections.

■ Integrated control board manages all operational functions and pro-

vides hookups for humidifier and electronic air cleaner.

■ An insulated blower compartment, a slow-opening gas valve and a

specially designed inducer system make it one of the quietest fur­naces on the market today.

■ Variable speed blower motor technology provides ultimate humidity

control, quieter sound levels and year-round energy savings.

■ Optional indoor or outdoor combustion air. In addition, combustion

air may be piped to either the top or side of the cabinet on all down­flow models. A special molded fitting is provided to ease installation.

■ Solid bottom is standard.

■ Control board diagnostics.

A variety of cooling coils and plenums designed to use with the Rheem

Classic

®

Series 95% A.F.U.E. 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.
