Furnace specRheem Value Series
Upflow Gas Furnace
FORM NO. G11-534
RGRS/RGRT- Series
Up to 93.5% A.F.U.E.†
Input Rates 45-120 kBTU
✝A.F.U.E. (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) calculated in accordance with
Department of Energy test procedures.
• The Rheem Value Series High Efficiency line of upflow gas
furnaces are designed for utility rooms, closets, or alcoves.
Because of the low-profile 34 inch height, this model can be
used vertically to satisfy most applications that traditionally
call for a horizontal furnace.
• The design is certified by CSA.
• Low profile “34 inch” design is lighter and easier to handle
and leaves room for optional accessories.
• Left or right side gas, electric, and condensate drainage
connections on upflow models.
• Integrated control board manages all operational functions
and provides accessory hookups for an electronic air cleaner.
• A slow-opening gas valve and a specially designed inducer
system make it one of the quietest furnaces on the market
today.
• Pre-paint galvanized steel cabinet.
• Optional indoor or outdoor combustion air. In addition,
combustion air may be piped to either the top or right side
of the cabinet on all upflow models. A special molded fitting
is provided to ease installation.
• Control board diagnostics.
• A variety of cooling coils and plenums designed to use with
the Rheem Value Series gas furnaces are available as optional
accessories for air conditioning models.

OPTION CODE FOR HIGH ALTITUDE:US & Canada – 278
NOTE:High altitude kits and options do NOT include additional burner orifices.
If a burner orifice change is necessary, they must be ordered through
PROSTOCK®. See Installation Instructions for more information.
Option – 278 furnaces are shipped with #51 DMS orifices installed. This is
one drill size smaller than standard furnaces to account for expected average
elevations and heating values typically seen in these areas.
CAUTION:Always follow National Fuel Gas Code (NFGC) guidelines when
converting for high altitudes.
For all installations above 2000 ft. (including all option – 278 models), the
burner orifice size needs to be recalculated and verified. A burner orifice
change may still be required. See Installation Instructions for more
information.
NOTE:For Canadian installations only, an optional derate (manifold gas
pressure reduction) method may be used to adjust the furnace for
altitude. See Installation Instructions for more information. This
optional method may NOT be used for U.S. installations.
