The Carrier Performance 80 Gas Furnace provides the comfort benefits of two-stage heating at the 80% AFUE efficiency level. Ideal for homeowners who want quieter, more even heating than a single-stage furnace but don't need or want the complexity of a high-efficiency condensing unit.
While high-efficiency condensing furnaces (90%+) offer better fuel efficiency, 80% AFUE furnaces use standard metal venting rather than PVC, making them simpler and less expensive to install — especially in homes with existing chimney or B-vent infrastructure. For some Albuquerque homes, the installation savings offset the higher operating costs.
Up to 80% AFUE — Standard efficiency with two-stage comfort.
Two-stage gas valve — Runs at low fire most of the time for quieter, more even heat.
Multi-speed blower — Improved airflow management over single-speed units.
Durable heat exchanger — Tubular, aluminized-steel construction.
10-year parts warranty — Standard Carrier coverage when registered.
80% AFUE furnaces do not qualify for NM Gas utility rebates or federal tax credits, which require 95%+ AFUE. Consider the Carrier Comfort 96 or Performance 96 for rebate eligibility.
