DFG Series

Indoor Gravity-Vented Gas-Fired Duct Furnace

Our innovative indoor gravity-vented gas-fired duct furnace series is expertly engineered to seamlessly integrate with standard air-handling systems for air conditioning, heating, or makeup air applications. The DFG series relies on natural draft for proper venting and is available in various models for different heating applications.

With an impressive selection of 10 model sizes, we offer input ratings from 100,000 BTU/hr to 400,000 BTU/hr and airflow ratings from 556 to 14,500 CFM. This versatility ensures that our duct furnaces meet a wide array of heating needs with unmatched performance and efficiency.
