The Dave Lennox Signature® Collection SLP98V Gas Furnace is designed for residential applications, but may also be used in light commercial applications requiring 110,000 Btuh of heat or less. Its functionality and versatility helped Lennox Intl. Inc. take home the gold award in the HVAC High-Efficiency Residential Equipment category of the 2016 Dealer Design Awards.
“The SLP98V was developed by aligning two of our greatest commitments, the needs of our dealers and consumers and product innovation,” said Kim Do, senior product manager, heating, Lennox Intl. Inc. “A total of seven years of research and development went into the current design of the SLP98V. Two and a half years went into determining the specific features of the initial design development with three years of research on the heat exchanger design. The latest improvement on the secondary heat exchanger took a year and a half of research and development and allowed the SLP98V to achieve efficiencies up to 98.7 percent AFUE.”
