Product Description

The GOODMAN ar9s960603bn is a 97 AFUE single-stage, multi-speed ECM gas furnace designed for upflow and horizontal installation in ducted residential and light commercial systems. Rated at 60,000 BTU/h high-fire input with a high-fire output capacity of 58,200 BTU/h, this unit delivers efficient heat transfer through a gas heat exchanger. The multi-speed ECM blower motor provides airflow up to 1,178 cubic feet per minute at high speed, supporting up to 3 tons of nominal cooling capacity when paired with a matched coil. Operating on 115-volt single-phase AC power, it is designed for installation by licensed HVAC contractors as part of a complete forced-air system. Manufactured in the United States and ENERGY STAR certified, this furnace meets ANSI certification standards and carries a Non-NOx burner designation.

The ar9s960603bn is configured for upflow or horizontal installation in ducted residential applications where high-efficiency gas heat is required. With a temperature rise range of 30 to 60 degrees F at high fire, it suits a range of duct system designs. The 17.5-inch cabinet width makes it compatible with standard air handler and coil cabinet configurations in typical residential mechanical rooms, closets, attics, or crawl space installations. This unit is part of the AR9S96 series and is intended for installation by qualified HVAC professionals.
