I don't know the efficency of the old unit, and neither does the person
I spoke with at Carrier.
The new unit is 80%.
The old one was made in 1985.

I currently have a 20 year old Carrier Gas Forced Air furnace model
number
58GP125-3 It says the INPUT is 125,100 BTU but the output field on

label is blank.

An HVAC company wants to replace this with a Carrier model 58STA110.

He

says this will result in the same or greater output as my unit. Is he
correct?

Thanks,

Probab;y, yes. Do some math...if your old furnace is 80% effcient the
output is 100,000 BTU. If the replacement is 90% or better you have
99,000+ BTU, close enough for practical purposes. HTH

Hi,
Where do you live?


Why, you looking for a date?
I hear Stormy's available.


Hmmm,
I did not ask you. Local climate and energy cost are a factor in
selecting things like furnace.
