What is a Packaged Gas with Air Conditioning?
The Packaged Gas unit with Air Conditioning is a unit that uses fuel, such as propane or natural gas, as explained above, with an air conditioning system, combined into one unit that sits outside the house. The fuel burning systems used in the Packaged Gas unit are not as efficient as a stand alone 92% efficient Gas Furnace. You should read the previous answer above for more details, but the moisture condensed in the 92% efficient furnace would freeze at low outdoor temperatures, causing the furnace to malfunction. But in some cases there is no other alternative means of installation, or the consumer would rather not have a fuel burning unit in the home. Again, many advancements in fuel burning safety have made fuel burning furnaces a very safe means of heating your home.
