WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF A VARIABLE SPEED BLOWER?
Advanced Motor Technology – By now youve probably read about the GE ECM motor and wondered, how is this an advantage for me? To begin with, the ECM motor eliminates temperature swings in your home by using a continuous blower setting. Typical gas furnaces use only one heating speed which is like having only one speed for your car! The ECM motor is also 20% to 30% more efficient than standard blower motors. Using only 50 to 75 watts during constant fan mode, the system circulates air throughout your home, providing total home comfort for pennies a day. And because the ECM motor slowly ramps its speed up, the noisy start-up produced by other blower systems is eliminated.
