Friedrich FR962V1155A24M4SCAP Gas Furnace 96% Afue 115000 Btu/h

Product Description

The FRIEDRICH FR962V1155A24M4SCAP is a high-efficiency natural gas furnace rated at 96% AFUE and 115,000 BTU/h output. It runs a two-stage gas valve paired with a variable-speed ECM blower motor, which allows the unit to operate at a reduced capacity during mild conditions and ramp up only when the load demands it. The multi-position, four-way configuration means the cabinet can be installed upflow, downflow, or horizontal, giving installers flexibility across a wide range of residential and light-commercial mechanical room layouts. Licensed HVAC technicians are the primary installers for this equipment.

This furnace is suited for larger residential applications or light-commercial spaces requiring a 5-nominal-ton airflow platform. The 24.5-inch cabinet width fits standard alcove and closet installations where space allows. Two-stage operation reduces short-cycling, improves humidity control during long cooling seasons when matched with a compatible air handler or coil, and lowers operating sound levels at the reduced firing rate. The ECM motor further reduces electrical consumption compared to PSC-motor equivalents, supporting energy-efficiency program requirements in many jurisdictions.

Key Features

• 96% AFUE natural gas furnace — high-efficiency rating reduces fuel consumption versus standard 80% units
• 115,000 BTU/h heating capacity supports large residential or light-commercial loads
• Two-stage gas valve modulates between low and high fire for improved comfort and reduced short-cycling
• Variable-speed ECM blower motor lowers electrical draw and reduces air-delivery noise
• Multi-position four-way cabinet installs upflow, downflow, or horizontal left or right
• 5-nominal-ton airflow platform matches a wide range of cooling coil configurations
• 24.5-inch cabinet width fits standard furnace alcoves and utility closets

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation furnace for residential and light-commercial natural gas heating systems requiring a 96% AFUE, two-stage, variable-speed unit in a multi-position configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed HVAC technician in accordance with the current edition of the IFGC, local gas codes, and the manufacturer installation instructions. Shut off gas supply and disconnect electrical power before any service or installation work. The venting system must be sized and configured for a 96% condensing furnace, which requires Category IV vent materials such as PVC or CPVC — do not connect to a B-vent system. Verify that the thermostat and any connected controls are compatible with two-stage and variable-speed operation before commissioning.
