York has three product lines of forced air heating systems with varying degrees of energy efficiency: the Affinity, LX and Latitude series. The Affinity line consists of two modulating furnaces, while the LX series has a variety of modulating, single-stage and two-stage gas furnaces. The Latitude series is made up of only two single-stage furnaces.
Of York's gas furnaces, only three qualify for Energy Star, with two of those furnaces being modulating models and one a single-stage burner. York has four single-stage models. The furnaces' AFUE ratings range from 80 percent to 95.5 percent. The company also has two-stage gas furnaces, all of which are in the LX series. Half of the furnaces have an AFUE rating of 80 percent, and the other half operate at 96 percent efficiency.
The three modulating furnaces are the most energy-efficient, with AFUE ratings of 80, 97 and 98 percent. These top-rated gas furnaces efficiently heat up your home, saving you money on your energy bill each month.
The gas furnaces have varying warranties depending on their series. You must register your gas furnace within 90 days of installation to receive the extended coverage. The Affinity and Latitude series have a 10-year warranty on the heat exchanger and parts. The LX series warranty is not as good. These gas furnaces have a five-year warranty on the heat exchanger and a 10-year warranty on parts.
