Product Description

The GOODMAN ar9s960403an is a single-stage, multi-speed ECM gas furnace rated at 97 AFUE, delivering 40,000 BTU/h input and 38,800 BTU/h output. Designed for ducted upflow and horizontal installations, it draws 115 volts AC at a minimum circuit amperage of 9.7 amps, with maximum overcurrent protection of 15 amps. The unit ships from United States manufacturing facilities and carries ENERGY STAR certification along with ANSI certification. Licensed HVAC technicians handle installation as part of a complete ducted heating system in residential or multi-family applications.

This furnace is configured for upflow or horizontal ducted installations, making it suitable for basement, closet, or attic applications where those orientations are required. With a nominal cooling coil capacity of 36,000 BTU/h (3 tons), it pairs with a matched cooling coil for year-round system use. The temperature rise range at high fire is 25 to 55 degrees F, and the blower delivers up to 1,055 cubic feet per minute at high heating speed. The Non-NOx burner design meets low-emissions requirements in applicable jurisdictions.
