The Efficiency of AFUE
All types of furnaces are classified by their annualized fuel-utilization efficiency (known as AFUE). AFUE ratings are shown in percentages and the higher the percentage, the more efficient the machine. Older gas furnaces will generally have lower AFUE ratings and furnaces with a standing pilot that were produced prior to 1992 are known to waste over a third of the fuel used. Furnaces produced after 1991 will typically have a higher AFUE rating of 80%. Therefore, the simplest way to ensure you have a more efficient gas furnace is to upgrade to a modern system with a higher AFUE rating. The most efficient type of system is the condensing furnace which have an AFUE rating of 90% and potentially even higher.
