They ranked companies based on the rate at which gas furnaces break down or stop functioning. Ruud gas furnaces have an 8% breakdown rate. This led to them ranking ahead of all other furnace manufacturers. Trane and American Standard tied for second at 9%. Many companies like Bryant, Carrier, and Lennox had numbers in the 10-15% range. York furnaces reportedly have a 19% breakdown rate, worst by far among the major brands.
