OK I have replaced older, but I still enjoy pushing these monsters into the scrap pile. This was a Gaffers & Sattler furnace and according to the home owner installed in 1957 or 58. The serial number does show a 57. That being said it lasted 52 years … wow.
Older Furnace Gaffers & Sattler
Our customer decided on the American Standard 95% 2 Stage Variable my best selling furnace and most favorite to install. We also installed a Honeywell 4″ pleated filter bank in the return system.
New American Standard 95% 2 stage variable furnace
As you can see this was a basement application requiring an upflow furnace. I decided to add some sleepers under the furnace just in case it ever floods and because there was no drain we added a condensate pump to remove condensate from the furnace.
Bad HWT Venting
If you look close in the picture above you can see the HWT vent went down hill into the existing furnace vent, we also fixed this at the same time. Its never a good idea to have a vent go down hill, but in this case I think they had so much rise that it still pulled the burnt gases out.

Back in 1992 I was an Arcoaire dealer for about 3 months, I quickly left and became a York dealer for about the next 10 years. The Arcoaire furnaces where heavy, oddly sized and seemed to have a lot of “out of the box” issues. This particular furnace was starting to rack up some serious repair bills so it was time to be replaced.
Older Arcoaire Furnace
My customer decided on the American Standard 95% Variable 2 Stage furnace, my favorite furnace to install and my top seller. Going from a 80% to a 95% she should see a reduced fuel bill as well as better comfort.
New American Standard 95% Variable Speed 2 Stage
The American Standard is about 2.5″ deeper than the Arcoaire but width is about the same, fortunately the clearance to the front of the furnace was enough to close the door and keep mininum clearance.
New PVC Venting
The older furnace vented with regular venting, it was badly corroded to the point it would have had to be replaced if she decided to go back to a 80% furnace. The new PVC venting is almost the same size so venting the new American Standard furnace was very easy.
Venting up through deck
The PVC vent went directly outside through the exterior wall and up through their deck and then through the roof. A lot cleaner than the older corroded metal gas vent pipe.

This commercial brings back some memories. You know they had a blast making these commercials. My only thought would have been to make it look a little cooler in the home … like seeing your breath on a cold day.

In my opinion if your not worried or concerned about the federal tax credit or CNG Rebates this is the way to go. Installing a high efficient 80% with a high HSPF heat pump.
Older Rheem furnace
When I say high efficient 80% I’m not referring to the gas part of the furnace, but rather the motor side of the furnace. This American Standard furnace has a ECM blower motor that is estimated about 70% less to operate than a standard motor. So if you like to run your blower 24/7 for better filtration this is the way to go.
New American Standard 80% ECM
As you can see above the new American Standard 80% ECM furnace fit into place right above the new American Standard heat pump coil.
New 15 Seer American Standard Heat Pump
Above you see the new American Standard 15 seer heat pump, the refer line is run up the side of the garage and covered with a gutter looking chase.

Its a hard decision sometimes to either install an entire system in order to meet the tax credit guide lines or just add a heat pump to your system and get no tax credit. In this case the existing American Standard 90% furnace was only 3 years old, doing the math it just didn’t make sense.
Existing American Standard Furnace
Above is the existing American Standard Furnace, being an American Standard dealer its not very hard to match up the equipment.
New American Standard Heat Pump Coil
As you can see the coil matched up perfectly under the furnace, a new transition had to be made and the existing return ducting had to be cut down a little. Everything else bolted up nicely.
New American Standard Heat Pump
The new American Standard Heat Pump found a home on the side of the house, the line set traveled under the home in the crawl space hooking up to the indoor coil. System complete.
