Exclusive Features of Armstrong Furnaces

Armstrong furnaces have advanced features that are exclusive for their furnaces. These features set them apart from other furnace brands.

• EHX Technology. EHX Technology is a heat exchanger technology exclusive to Armstrong furnaces. This feature improves airflow to distribute heat evenly without any hotspots. Likewise, this feature improves the heat exchange by increasing the contact surfaces between the heat exchanger and the air. All Armstrong furnaces, from the entry-levels to the top-tier models, are equipped with EHX technology.
• Quiet Combustion. One unique feature of Armstrong furnaces is that they use a smaller BTU input per burner, improving heating and distribution. This feature also allows the furnace to operate at lower noise levels as compared to other brands.
• Comfort Sync Thermostat. The top-of-the-line Armstrong furnaces come with Comfort Sync thermostats that monitor the internal components of your furnaces and inform you when they will need regular maintenance or service. Likewise, Comfort Sync technology will also allow you to remotely control your furnace’s settings, such as temperature, airflow, and humidity levels, with the use of your smart device wherever you are. This feature will allow you to warm your house in advance as you return home from work.
• Advanced Heat Exchanger. Armstrong furnaces boast of their advanced heat exchanger technology, which makes their exchangers extremely durable and long-lasting.
