• The Rheem Classic® Series 2-Stage line of upflow/horizontal

gas furnaces are designed for utility rooms, closets, alcoves,
or attics. Because of the low-profile 34 inch [864 mm]
height, the upflow model can also be used to satisfy most
applications that traditionally call for a horizontal furnace.

• The design is certified by CSA International.

• Patented heat exchanger, constructed of aluminized steel for the

maximum in corrosion resistance and thermal fatigue reliability.

• Low profile “34 inch” design is lighter and easier to handle,

and leaves room for optional equipment.

• Convertible from upflow to horizontal left or right without field

conversion.

• Left or right side gas and electric inlet connections with quick,

simple change.

• Direct spark ignition models equipped with remote sense and

feature an integrated board with humidifier and electronic air
cleaner hookups.

• Insulated blower compartment, a two stage gas valve and a

specially designed two speed draft inducer motor make it one
of the quietest furnaces on the market today.

• Pre-paint galvanized steel cabinet.

• Molded permanent filter.

• Grab-holes in doors to aid in easy door removal and

replacement.

• Compatible with single or two-stage thermostat. (For optimal

performance two-stage thermostat recommended.)

• A variety of cooling coils and plenums designed to use with

Rheem Classic® Series 2-Stage gas furnaces are available as
optional accessories.

• Furnaces can be installed in an upflow position or laid on

either side in a horizontal position. Field conversion not
required.
