Answer
A counterflow furnace operates by drawing room air from the top of the unit, warming it across the combustion chamber, and delivering heated air at floor level.
This design approach creates more uniform temperatures throughout a space, minimizing the temperature difference between floor and ceiling.

- Draws air from the top of the unit
- Delivers heated air at floor level
