Custom Heat CustomHeat® TWO-STAGE GAS FURNACE

Lennox mid-efficiency, two-stage gas furnace provides custom comfort for your home.Lennox: Comfort since 1865


Like your favorite sweater, the CustomHeat® gas furnace wraps you in comfortable warmth.

When it has turned cold outside, you want your home nice and warm inside. But that warmth doesn't have to mean feeling like you've stepped into a sauna. You want a comfortable, consistent warmth permeating throughout your home. The CustomHeat furnace can provide this special "customized" heat for your home.

The key to the CustomHeat furnace's exceptional comfort is its two-stage heating technology. Two-stage heating delivers a more consistent and comfortable temperature throughout your home. That means uncomfortable temperature swings are a thing of the past.

Nothing Sounds Better

Listen to that quiet furnaceAlong with comfortable warmth, you want peace and quiet in your home. That means no noisy equipment to disturb and distract you. Since the CustomHeat® furnace is a two-stage furnace it will spend the majority of its operation in its extremely quiet first stage or low heat. You'll hardly know it's working, except for the fact that you'll be feeling warm and snug. Too bad it can't keep the kids quiet too.

Built For Life

Dave with the CustomHeatThere are very few constants in life -- things you can rely on. But you can depend on your CustomHeat furnace to provide you and your family with years of quiet, comfortable warmth. That's because it is built by Lennox. A company that's been building quality furnaces for over 100 years. From conception to production, our furnaces go through several series of rigorous tests. We purposely subject our equipment to extreme conditions. This ensures that you will receive quality products. We are so serious about quality that we run-test each and every unit before it leaves the factory. We are proud that Lennox quality standards are among the toughest in the industry.

Breath of Fresh Air

WindowThe CustomHeat furnace plays a role in battling indoor air pollution. It's a fact that 50% of all minor illnesses are either caused by, or are aggravated by, poor indoor air quality. To improve air circulation within the home, the CustomHeat furnace is equipped with a dedicated low speed for continuous fan operation. This allows more air to continuously move slowly and quietly through the system and indoor air quality products, such as humidifiers or filters.

Save Comfortably

Money in a Piggy BankThe CustomHeat furnace offers more comfort for every energy dollar you spend. No matter how warm your furnace keeps you, a high energy bill will send a cold shiver up your spine. With an efficiency rating of up to 80.0%, the CustomHeat gas furnace not only keeps you cozy, it can reduce your energy bills when compared to older furnaces. The additional monthly savings means you'll be comfortable with the return on your investment for years to come.

Savings Chart
This chart depicts potential energy savings you can expect from the CustomHeat furnace versus older furnaces with lower efficiency ratings. Criteria used in this example are 2,000 full load heating hours, with a 60,000 Btuh heating design load and $.65 ccf for gas. Your actual savings may vary depending on the weather patterns in your local area, local fuel rates and your individual lifestyle. This chart does not take into consideration additional savings gained through two-stage heating.


Go With a Sure Thing
SureLight™ Ignition
When it comes to safety and reliability, second best is simply not good enough. That's why Lennox has an ignition system that is the safest, surest, most intelligent hot surface ignition system available today.

The SureLight™ ignition system features an igniter made of a virtually unbreakable material -- silicon nitride. Accelerated life-cycle testing on this igniter has proven its remarkable reliability.

But the igniter is just half the story. The SureLight ignition system also features a patented "adaptive technology" control module that's intelligent enough to determine just how much energy is needed to light the burners without overheating the igniter. No other hot-surface ignition system is as reliable.

 


The Comfortable Way to Heat Your Home
Two-Stage Heating
Comparing Two Stage vs. Single Stage HeatingTwo-stage heating reduces temperature swings within your home, maintaining a consistent, comfortable and preferred temperature. Most of the time the furnace operates in the first stage or low heat for greater efficiency and comfort. On colder days, if first stage can not satisfy the heating demand, it switches to high heat or the second stage. Standard, single-stage furnaces only offer one level of heat - high.

 

 

Quality Home Comfort

Diagram of the CustomHeat Furnace at Work
Your furnace typically resides inside the home in a variety of locations. The supply ducts forces warmed air into the home after the air has traveled cross the heat exchanger. At the same time the return duct is pulling the cooler air from the home sending it past the heat exchanger, starting the cycle over again.
