Bosch bgh96m080c4c 96% Afue 80K Btu/h Gas Furnace

Product Description

The BOSCH bgh96m080c4c is a two-stage, multipoise condensing gas furnace rated at 96% AFUE and 80,000 BTU/h output. Designed for residential heating applications, this furnace operates on a 115/1/60 electrical supply and is compatible with low-global-warming-potential refrigerants, including R-454B, making it compliant with current and emerging refrigerant safety standards. The multipoise cabinet allows installation in upflow, downflow, or horizontal configurations, giving HVAC technicians flexibility when replacing existing equipment or completing new construction installs. ENERGY STAR rated efficiency and a proven two-stage heating design make this unit suitable for full-system integration in dual-fuel configurations.

The bgh96m080c4c is designed for residential forced-air heating systems and is paired with the Bosch IDS platform for dual-fuel heat pump applications. When matched with compatible Bosch IDS outdoor units and cased coils, the furnace becomes part of a complete heating and cooling system. The multipoise design supports a wide range of installation orientations, reducing the need for custom ductwork modifications during equipment replacement. Licensed HVAC technicians handling both standard gas furnace replacements and dual-fuel system conversions will find this unit well-suited to common residential install scenarios.
