Equipment:

All furnaces must . . .

• Have an Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE) of 95% AFUE or higher.
  
• Use ducted outdoor air for combustion (Models that can be installed using either inside or outside combustion air should indicate on the final invoice that the installation was outside combustion air ("two-pipe"), including furnaces and boilers installed in garages.)
  
• Have an air handler blower motor with an electronically commutated, permanent magnet variable speed DC (ECPM) motor. The model be listed in the Gas Appliance Manufacturers' Directory as electrically-efficient (the "e" symbol)
  

Air handlers used with hydronic heating systems must have an ECM blower motor.

AFUE means Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency. Higher AFUE numbers are more efficient.

Model Number: An asterisk (*) in the model numbers means that any character may appear in that position.

Tax credits are calculated at 25% of the purchase price of the equipment (without accessories) up to the maximum amount listed for each model. Additional state tax credits are available for low-air leakage duct systems installed/repaired by a tax credit-certified contractor. There is a $150 "bonus" tax credit if this is done at the same time as the installation of the high-efficiency furnace or air handler.
