This top-vent counterflow wall furnace by Williams Furnace Company is a highly efficient indoor heating unit that, operating at 50,000 BTU, works to safely distribute heat throughout any indoor space at minimal cost. Ideal for homes, apartments, offices, and schools, this unit is conveniently compact - just 10 1/4 inches deep and requiring less than one square foot of floor space - for ample heat wherever you need it, regardless of the size of the room.
 
Counterflow furnaces operate by utilizing an internal blower system that, coupled with an efficient heavy-duty motor, receives air at the ceiling level through the top of the unit that is then warmed (quietly) and redistributed through the bottom towards the floor. Because warm air naturally rises, the heat delivered at the floor level becomes evenly disbursed throughout the entire room, for consistently comfortable interior temperatures. All wiring and controls are easily accessible from the front of the unit.
  • Ideal for homes, apartments, offices, schools, cabins and many other applications
  • Blower features self-cleaning air scoop design (no filter required!)
  • Heavy-duty motor is cooled by centrifugally swept air stream and is equipped with self-aligning porous bearings
  • Matchless ignition
  • Vibration-free mountings
  • Multi-room heating with optional outlet kit
  • Equipped with four foot service cord
  • Attractive, décor compatible, scratch and abrasion resistant powder-coat, soft-white finish
  • Resettable vent-limit safety switch
  • Automatic fan controls and safety devices
  • Read owner's manual before using/installing
  • Check local codes and ordinances for permitted uses
  • Servicing recommended by qualified service technician
Professional installation by a certified gas technician is required for this item.
 
This Intermittent Ignition unit is available in natural gas or liquid propane. Please select the type of fuel to be used and other options such as a high elevation kit (if you are 2001 ft. or more above sea level), and a thermostat.
  • Natural Gas - 5508232 and Liquid Propane Gas - 5508231
