FG6RL Series

High Efficiency / Direct Vent or Non Direct Vent
Condensing Downflow Gas Furnace

Induced Draft - 92.1 AFUE Input 40,000 - 120,000 Btuh

The high efficiency downflow gas furnace may be installed
free standing in a utility room, or enclosed in an alcove or
closet. The extended flush jacket provides a pleasing
“appliance appearance.” Design certified by the Canadian
Standards Association (CSA). The product is truly designed
with the contractor and the consumer in mind.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

• Best warranty in the business -

– A lifetime warranty on the heat exchanger
– 8 Year Limited Parts and 5 Year Quality Pledge

• 100% fired and tested - All units and each component
(both mechanical and electrical) are tested on the
manufacturing line.

• Best packaging in the industry - Unique design assures
product will arrive to the homeowner dent free.

• Clean and quiet operation - Due to the unique design of
in-shot burners, location of inducer, return air vents, and
use of insulation.

• Fixed 30 second blower delay at burner start-up assures
a warm duct temperature at furnace start-up. Adjustable
blower off settings (60, 120, 160 and 180 seconds).

• Fixed 30 second post purge increases life of heat
exchanger.

• SmartLite

ignitors in furnaces using hot surface ignition technology.
Programmed to learn the heat-up characteristics of the
ignitor, then adapt the ignition time to the characteristics
of the furnace so the ignitor is energized appropriately.

• Dependable, hot surface ignitor - Innovative application
of an appliance type ignitor with a 20 year history of
reliability, assures no callbacks because of handling.

• Color coded wire harness - Designed to fit the
components, all with quick-connect fittings for ease of
service and replacement.

• Tubular primary heat exchanger - Heavy gauge
aluminized steel heat exchanger assures a long life.

• Stainless steel secondary heat exchanger assures long
life.

• 90-second fixed cooling cycle blower-off delay (TDR)
increases cooling performance when matched with a
NORDYNE coil.
