Why choose a Ruud furnace with a Ruud commercial furnace installer?

Furnaces from Ruud are known for their exceptional dependability and competitive pricing. Although their guarantee period is shorter than the time frames offered by competing furnace makers, they compensate for this shortcoming by offering new furnace units at a lower cost. Most Ruud furnaces come with a 10-year conditional parts warranty and a 20-year heat exchanger warranty. 

Ruud offers three furnace series:

1. Achiever Series
This is the most affordable, entry-level furnace lineup for the brand. Despite being simply entry-level models, they nonetheless come with Ruud’s Unique PlusOneTM Ignition technology, which helps to ensure consistently reliable operation of the furnace.

Moreover, Achiever Series furnaces have PlusOneTM Diagnostics for simple maintenance and Ruud’s Water Management Systems to avoid water damage all while operating quietly.

2. Achiever Plus Series
The Achiever Plus Series, which shares many of the same cutting-edge Ruud technology as the economy-tier, adds multi-speed ECM blower motors to outperform conventional PSC models.

Not only does this increase indoor comfort and temperature consistency, but it also guarantees a higher AFUE rating, better air quality, and less maintenance.

Also, two of the three models in this class feature more sophisticated two-stage gas valves, which enhance temperature maintenance while lowering noise and energy consumption.

3. EcoNetTM Enabled Ultra® Series

For consumers looking for a high degree of comfort and efficiency, Ruud offers a variety of EcoNetTM-capable UltraR Series furnaces. These units attain Ruud’s highest range of AFUE ratings thanks to modulating and two-stage operation, but they obviously cost a little more than entry-level and mid-range units.

However, you also get higher energy efficiency, more even temperatures throughout the house, quicker maintenance, the greatest guarantee, and the capacity to remotely control your system from anywhere in the world with the additional expense.

No matter which Ruud furnace option you choose, you will wind up saving money on the overall cost of installing the system with your Ruud commercial furnace installer while benefiting from the energy efficiency your business deserves.

How does a Ruud commercial furnace installer provide energy efficient furnaces?

Air In Motion’s Ruud commercial furnace installer recognized how important it is for your business to be energy efficient, both for the environment and for your bottom line. 

• Unit insulation
  It takes more energy for a furnace to maintain the same level of warmth in a building when heat is lost or wasted. Some furnaces allow heat to escape through the walls of the cabinet housing the furnace. A blanket of insulation lines the interior of the cabinet walls of energy-efficient furnaces—such as the entire line of cutting-edge models offered by Ruud, which helps to reduce this loss by a significant amount.

• Induced-draft blower
  The majority of gas furnaces have a feature that, when turned off, forces warm air from the building to rise through the venting system and escape through the roof. This is a waste of energy. The Ruud Classic® Series and Classic® Plus Lines both come equipped with an induced-draft blower that, when combined with a hot surface ignition system, ensures that hot gases are pulled through the heat exchanger at a rate of flow that is both consistent and under control. After the burner goes through its cycle of turning off, the draft blower also stops, so the heated air stays in the system.
  
  The majority of gas furnaces release combustion byproducts and gases into the atmosphere by allowing warm air to ascend on its own. On the other hand, there are times when the correct venting of combustion by-products could be hampered because of a blockage, the deterioration of venting systems, a malfunction, or some other cause. The Ruud induced-draft blower ensures that there is a consistent draft passing through the heat exchanger at all times, which is necessary for the combustion chamber of the furnace to be properly vented.

• Pressure switch
  Ruud also has a pressure switch that continuously checks the previously mentioned venting. If the switch detects a restriction in the flow of venting, it will immediately turn off your heating system to ensure your safety.

• Electric ignition
  Pilot lights also have the potential to be wasteful. Because many of Ruud’s furnaces are equipped with electric ignition, there is no longer a requirement for a constantly burning pilot. Just having this function can result in a 6% increase in overall efficiency. And when combined with a blower that creates induced draft, it can enhance the efficiency of a furnace by more than 20%!

• Secondary heat exchanger
  The energy of the hot vent gases, which can reach temperatures of more than 260 degrees Celsius, is harnessed by the furnaces that are the most effective. In order to accomplish this, the Ruud 90 Plus® gas furnace directs the hot gases it produces through a secondary heat exchanger. This process recovers heat that would have been lost otherwise, redirects it to preheating the air within the home, and achieves AFUE rates of up to 94.5%.

A high-efficiency furnace will often come with a higher price tag, but it may be able to make up the difference in the long term by reducing the amount that is spent on operational expenditures. Yet with today’s customer interest in efficiency, such equipment improves your business’s bottom line, making a Ruud commercial furnace installer a better investment.
