The Ducane 97G2DF070BV16K is a 97% AFUE downflow gas furnace designed for residential applications that require moderate heating output and compatibility with larger cooling equipment. With a heating capacity in the 70,000 BTU/hr range and support for 4‑ton cooling, it fits well in homes where the furnace must integrate with higher‑capacity air‑conditioning systems. Its two‑stage heating operation helps maintain steadier indoor temperatures, while the ECM blower motor provides consistent airflow and quieter performance. The downflow configuration makes it suitable for installations where ductwork is located below the unit, such as in closets or utility spaces, and the stainless‑steel secondary heat exchanger supports long‑term durability.
