Do 90% efficient furnaces really save that much money?
Energy efficiency has become quite a popular topic lately. Energy Star ratings used to have numbers no one understood, such as cost per kilowatt hour. Now, you will find numbers that rate the efficiency of gas furnaces, in addition to the Energy Star emblem.
Energy Star helps consumers more easily understand fuel efficiency of various appliances they're thinking of purchasing. If you look closely on furnaces you're thinking of purchasing, you'll find a tag that tells you how much of the fuel you burn is actually converted to heat instead of being wasted.
A 90% efficient furnace means that there is only 10% waste via inefficient heating of your home. You can find a furnace that is 92% or better, but they'll still categorized as 90% efficient furnaces.
Besides the Energy Star rating tags, these furnaces will have a tag that might list the efficiency as "Up to 92.1 AFUE" which means up to 92.1% Annual fuel utilization efficiency, which is a rating or code given to gas burning furnaces and indicates how much heat the unit holds in to be used to heat the house. Some of those numbers can be confusing, so don't be embarrassed to ask what they mean.
Any furnace that gets 90% efficiency or better might possibly be one of the best furnaces you can get, and in most cases you may be eligible for tax credits and incentives or a rebate from the utility company, besides saving money on your utility bills. In some older gas furnaces, it was not unusual for a furnace to spend a lot of fuel, up to 50% or more, heating the area right around the furnace and not effectively warming the rest of the house. It's quite possible that , many of these units would lose the fuel they burned just to power the burners, pilot light and heat the small area around it through "lost heat".
Other ways to save energy is through insulated windows, drapes & programmable thermostats. Depending on how cold your area gets, some of the energy saving things you do to your home can add up to quite a lot of money saved.
