Goodman 60,000 BTU 96% AFUE Two-Stage Variable Speed Gas Furnace Downflow/Horizontal 17.5" Cabinet R-32

The smartest, most efficient 60,000 BTU downflow furnace Goodman makes. The Goodman GDVT960603BN delivers 60,000 BTU of two-stage heating at 96% AFUE in a versatile 17.5" downflow cabinet — featuring a variable-speed ECM blower, two-stage gas valve, ComfortBridge™ communicating technology, and a thermally insulated heavy-gauge cabinet with less than 2% air leakage for maximum efficiency and quiet operation. Built for small to medium homes with closet, alcove, or attic installations that demand the best. Run quietly at lower output on mild days — then step up to full power when temperatures really drop. 

Why You'll Love It:

• 96% AFUE efficiency — converts 96 cents of every energy dollar into heat, the highest efficiency rating available in the Goodman downflow furnace lineup — a significant upgrade over 80% and 92% models
• 60,000 BTU input / 57,600 BTU output — ideal heating output for small to medium homes without oversizing or wasted capacity
• True variable-speed ECM blower — continuously and intelligently adjusts airflow to match exact heating and cooling demand for maximum comfort, minimum noise, and lower electricity costs
• Two-stage gas valve — runs at lower output on mild days for gentler, quieter cycling and more even room temperatures, then ramps to full power when temperatures really drop
• Auto-Comfort mode — automatically optimizes airflow and temperature balance for whole-home comfort without manual adjustments
• Enhanced dehumidification mode — actively manages indoor humidity levels during cooling season for greater year-round comfort
• ComfortBridge™ communicating technology — enables smarter system communication between components for optimized whole-home comfort and efficiency
• CoolCloud™ Bluetooth app — allows contractors to commission, diagnose, and service the unit directly from a smartphone or tablet without removing the cabinet panels
• Downflow / horizontal installation — purpose-built for closets, alcoves, and attic installs where air needs to travel downward through the duct system
• 17.5" cabinet width — compatible with 1-3 ton R-32 cooling systems for a complete, balanced home comfort setup
• Certified for direct vent (2-pipe) or non-direct vent (1-pipe) — flexible venting configurations for easier installation in a variety of applications
• Left or right gas and electrical connections — convenient field flexibility for faster, easier installation
• Heavy-duty aluminized-steel tubular primary heat exchanger — engineered for long-lasting durability and efficient heat transfer with wrinkle-bend technology for added dependability
• Stainless steel secondary heat exchanger — extracts additional heat from exhaust gases to achieve the industry-leading 96% AFUE efficiency rating
• Heavy-gauge steel cabinet with less than 2% air leakage — airtight construction minimizes heat loss and reduces sound output for quieter, more economical operation
• Silicon nitride igniter — more durable than older hot surface igniters, reducing maintenance calls and replacement costs over the life of the unit
• Self-diagnosing control board with constant memory — stores the last fault codes so your technician can diagnose issues fast, cutting service time and costs
• Compatible with electronic air cleaners and humidifiers — wire directly to the low-voltage terminals on the control board for seamless indoor air quality integration
• LP convertible — easily field-converted to propane with optional kit, giving you fuel flexibility for your home
• PVC/plastic venting required — high-efficiency condensing operation requires plastic vent pipe, not metal
• Low NOx emissions — meets air quality requirements for nationwide installation
• R-32 compatible — future-ready refrigerant support for pairing with modern R-32 cooling systems
• AHRI Certified and ETL Listed — independently verified for safety and performance
• Made in the USA — designed, engineered, and assembled domestically

⚠️ PVC/Plastic venting required — this is a 96% AFUE condensing furnace and cannot use metal flue venting.
