This AC9S96 Amana Gas Furnace offers 96% AFUE, as opposed to lower ratings of less efficient gas furnaces. Its multispeed blower can improve its efficiency rating and enable the furnace to maintain consistent warmth in low-heat capacity mode without inefficient high-heat surges associated with natural draft furnaces.
When you receive an AFUE rating of 90% or more, your gas furnace is performing at the top of its class. Simply put, the AC9S96 Amana Gas Furnace 96% AFUE rating means 96¢ of every dollar you spend on energy is actually used to heat your home. That’s very little wasted energy when compared with lowerrated or older, increasingly inefficient heating systems.
Advantages
- 96% AFUE – Converts 96¢ of every energy dollar into indoor comfort in your home.
- Stainless-Steel Tubular Primary Heat Exchanger – Unique tubular stainless-steel construction formed using wrinkle bend technology results in an extremely durable heat exchanger.

- Efficient and Quiet Multi-Speed ECM Circulator Motor – Provides quiet system startup and shutdown with highly efficient performance. All models are FER compliant with up to nine speeds available for cooling.
- Durable Silicon Nitride Igniter – Eliminates the need for an energy-wasting pilot light.
- Single-Stage Gas Valve – Reduces energy needed during moderate demand to deliver outstanding comfort and efficiency as compared to natural draft furnaces.
- Quiet, Single-Speed, Induced-Draft Blower – Provides precise control and enhanced energy-efficient performance as compared to a natural draft furnace.
- Continuous Air Circulation – Provides added filtration and keeps air moving throughout your home to help maintain comfort.
- Self-Diagnostic Control Board – Continuously monitors the system for consistent, reliable operation, stores last diagnostic codes in memory and indicates condition through a 3-digit, 7-segment display for quick troubleshooting.
- Heavy-Gauge Steel Cabinet with Durable Finish – Resists corrosion and protects essential components.
- Thermally Insulated Cabinet – The fully-insulated cabinet means air leakage of less than 2% to maximize heat transfer efficiency and lower blower noise.
Quiet Comfort
Many homeowners may think the best gas furnaces are not seen or heard. That’s why an Amana® brand AC9S96 Multi-Speed Furnace is insulated for noise reduction. With a sound-isolated blower assembly and a heavy-gauge steel cabinet, it offers quiet and efficient performance as compared to a natural draft furnace.
Energy Efficiency
Energy efficiency equates to cost savings. A gas furnace’s efficiency rating can primarily be determined by two factors: its AFUE rating (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency), which indicates what percentage of each dollar of natural gas purchased is actually used to heat your home; and the type of blower used in the furnace.
