More installation flexibility, same affordable 80% AFUE performance. The Goodman GR9S800603BN delivers 60,000 BTU of single-stage heating at 80% AFUE in a versatile 17.5" upflow cabinet — the right choice when your installation requires compatibility with larger 1-3 ton R-32 cooling systems without stepping up in price. Same proven Goodman reliability and long-term durability as the slim 14" model, with the wider cabinet that contractors and homeowners need for more demanding system pairings. Dependable, affordable, and built to last.
Why You'll Love It:
- 80% AFUE efficiency — converts 80 cents of every energy dollar into heat, keeping operating costs predictable without overpaying for efficiency ratings designed for larger or colder applications
- 60,000 BTU input / 48,000 BTU output — ideal heating output for small to medium homes without oversizing or wasted capacity
