It uses a two-stage gas valve paired with an ECM variable-speed blower motor to modulate heat output and airflow based on demand. The result is more consistent space temperatures, quieter operation at low-fire, and reduced energy consumption compared to single-stage units. The multi-position, four-way configuration allows installation in upflow, downflow, or horizontal orientations, making it well suited for a range of residential duct layouts. Licensed HVAC technicians install and commission this equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis furnace is designed for residential forced-air heating systems with a nominal 3-ton cooling coil match. The 17.5-inch cabinet width fits standard air handler closets and utility rooms. The two-stage firing and variable-speed ECM blower make it a strong match for systems where zoning, dehumidification control, or noise reduction are priorities. The multi-position cabinet supports side-return, bottom-return, and horizontal configurations, reducing the need for additional ductwork transitions during replacement or new-construction installs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e96% AFUE efficiency rating reduces fuel consumption compared to standard 80% units\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo-stage gas valve provides low-fire and high-fire operation for improved comfort and efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eECM variable-speed blower motor modulates airflow continuously for consistent temperature distribution\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMulti-position four-way cabinet installs in upflow, downflow, or horizontal left and right configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e17.5-inch cabinet width fits standard residential utility closet openings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNominal 3-ton cooling capacity match supports combined heating and cooling system design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style residential natural gas furnace with a nominal 3-ton cooling coil match and 17.5-inch cabinet width.

Shut off gas supply and disconnect electrical power before any service work. This is a 96% AFUE condensing furnace and requires a dedicated PVC condensate drain line and two-pipe PVC venting — do not connect to a B-vent or single-pipe venting system. Verify that the electrical supply voltage and circuit ampacity match the unit nameplate before energizing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFuel Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Natural Gas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEfficiency\u003c\/strong\u003e: 96% AFUE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeating Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 40,000 BTU\/h\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStages\u003c\/strong\u003e: Two Stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: ECM Variable Speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/strong\u003e: Multi Four-Way Position\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Cooling Match\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 Tons\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCabinet Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: FRIEDRICH\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: FR962V0403A17M4SCAP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"FRIEDRICH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51284007649586,"sku":"FR962V0403A17M4SCAP","price":3382.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/309278437.png?v=1781065850","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/friedrich-fr962v0403a17m4scap-gas-furnace-96-afue-40000-btu","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
