I am in need of a new furnace for a rental property. The property is a

I'm told by friends that the brand of furnace is less important than
the burner, and that as long as it has a Beckett burner all will be
well.

Can anyone recommend a good furnace with no frills, a Beckett burner,
and an efficiency rating around 85% that a non-licensed consumer can
purchase at a discount warehouse. Thanks...

A regular furnace will be near a max of 83% not 85% efficient,, a
condensing unit will be 92-96%, it will allow you to raise rents
Quicker. Tenants move if not happy. .

That's a good point. All things being equal, what is the cost
difference in the monthly bill for an 83% efficient furnace vs. a 92%
efficient furnace?
