Features
- Advanced Heat Exchanger Design
- The GCVM97 furnace employs a reliable dual-diameter tubular heat exchanger design. Aluminized steel is used for incredibly efficient heat transfer, and a wrinkle-bend is applied to the tubes to enhance the heat exchanger's dependability and longevity.
- Secondary Heat Exchanger
- This furnace produces additional heat by directing combustion gases through a secondary heat exchanger before they are vented. The secondary heat exchanger is made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel and it is sloped to prevent condensate build-up.
- Quiet Comfort
- The blower of the GCVM970803BN was selected for its incredibly low sound levels. Additionally, this unit offers an airflow system and fan speed options that allow it to operate quietly while providing consistent comfort.
- Venting Options
- The GCVM970803BN offers several venting options to streamline installation in a variety of applications. It can be used in either a two-pipe direct vent setup or a single-pipe configuration with combustion air.
- Secure Cabinet
- All GCVM97 furnaces are protected by a durable steel cabinet rated for less than 2% air leakage. The heat exchanger section is insulated to prevent heat loss and the return side of the cabinet is solid and airtight.
- ComfortBridge Compatible
- This furnace is compatible with Goodman's ComfortBridge communicating controls. ComfortBridge control streamlines the installation and maintenance processes further by automatically detecting your equipment and providing diagnostics and troubleshooting.
- Auto-Comfort
- Goodman's Auto-Comfort mode is available in applications where the GCVM970803BN is used to distribute cooled air. This mode scales output up to the cooling demand in stages for improved comfort, efficiency, and dehumidification.
- Easy Integration
- The GCVM970803BN makes it simple to enhance your system with a humidifier and an electronic air cleaner; just wire them directly to the low-voltage terminals on the control board.
- Extended Warranty
- Goodman offers a 10-year limited unit replacement and parts warranty when you register your product online within 60 days of installation. An unregistered product has the standard 5-year warranty. See the "Manuals" tab for more information.
Overview for Goodman GCVM970803BN Gas Furnace HeaterThe Goodman GCVM97 High-Efficiency Gas Furnace with modulating gas valve and a variable-speed circulating blower provides efficient and economical performance. Unlike single-stage gas furnaces that operate 'all on' or 'all off,' a Goodman modulating gas furnace typically runs at the lowest possible speed to precisely maintain a constant, steady temperature in your home. A modulating gas furnace optimizes its heating output to maximize indoor comfort and lower energy costs. When operating at low-speed levels, your Goodman gas furnace consumes less energy to keep your home comfortable. In addition, the 97% AFUE rating on this gas furnace means that 97 cents of every $1.00 of heating energy expense warms your home.

Fuel Type
Fuel Type
To create heat, some form of fuel is required. Fuel Type specifies what the product uses as an input to create heat.
Natural Gas
Vent Type
Vent Type
Products that use combustion (burning) of fuel to create heat also create potentially dangerous gasses that need to be exhausted (AKA "Vented"). Depending on the product, venting can be done via a chimney, through a side wall, or use a second vent to provide fresh air to the appliance.
Direct Vent
Modulating/Staging
Modulating/Staging
Stages are unique speeds or levels that equipment can operate at. More stages allow for better fine-tuned control of output, which improves comfort and efficiency. Modulating equipment can operate across a range of levels, giving the highest level of fine-tuned control. Learn More

Ordered on Thursday morning and it arrived Tuesday. Couldn’t be happier. Replaced my 25 year old Bryant. It was a perfect fit using the existing ductwork. Very quiet and even heat.

Good product, fast shipping

Review Posted 10/17/2018
Goodman has come quite a long way in quality and dependability over the past 10 years or so. This is the 4th Goodman system I have installed in as many houses. All function well, and are still in service.
They are easy to install by the experienced DIY guy. If you get stuck, there are lots of videos on you tube.
eComfort had the best price when you consider shipping costs. They included Free shipping, and Free lift gate service. Unit arrived undamaged in a couple days.
I would definitely purchase another Goodman, and I will continue to use eComfort.
