The condensing gas furnace ... operates at levels of efficiency of up to 95 per cent by condensing and recuperating the flue gases that would otherwise dissipate through the chimney. The condensing gas furnace also uses electrical ignition rather than a pilot flame, to minimize energy losses between combustion periods. 4, record 1, English, - condensing%2Dgas%20furnace

Les générateurs d'air chaud à condensation alimentés au gaz sont les appareils les plus efficaces offerts sur le marché, avec un rendement saisonnier de l'ordre de 90 à 97 p. 100. [...] Dans la plupart des modèles à condensation, le brûleur est semblable à celui d'un appareil ordinaire, le tirage étant assuré par un ventilateur à tirage aspiré. Toutefois, des surfaces d'échange thermique supplémentaires, faites de matériaux anticorrosion (généralement de l'acier inoxydable), extraient la chaleur des sous-produits de combustion avant leur évacuation. Là où se fait la condensation et l'échange thermique, les gaz de combustion sont refroidis au point où leur vapeur d'eau se condense, libérant ainsi plus de chaleur dans la maison. Le condensat est acheminé à un avaloir. [...] Les gaz de combustion sont alors suffisamment refroidis pour être évacués par un tuyau en plastique PVC ou ABS traversant un mur extérieur de la maison plutôt que par une cheminée. 1, record 1, French, - g%C3%A9n%C3%A9rateur%20d%27air%20chaud%20%C3%A0%20condensation%20aliment%C3%A9%20au%20gaz
