Product Description

The FRIEDRICH FR951V0403A17M4SCAP is a 95% AFUE single-stage natural gas furnace equipped with an ECM variable-speed blower motor. Rated at 40,000 BTU/h, it delivers efficient, consistent heat while the ECM motor adjusts airflow to match system demand, reducing energy consumption and improving comfort. The multi-position, four-way configuration allows installation in upflow, downflow, horizontal left, or horizontal right orientations, giving installers flexibility across a range of residential applications. This unit is sized for 3-ton nominal cooling coil pairings and is built for professional installation by licensed HVAC technicians.

This furnace is suited for residential forced-air heating systems where high-efficiency gas heat and installation flexibility are required. The 17.5-inch cabinet width fits standard platform and closet installations. The ECM variable-speed motor makes this unit compatible with zoned systems and communicating thermostats where constant-torque or variable-speed airflow control is needed. Single-stage gas valve operation keeps controls straightforward while still delivering 95% AFUE performance.
