A two phase furnace includes 2 types of heat. Usually it is composed of an electric heat pump and also a nat. gas/ propane heat source when the temperature drops below a set range. The reason they use these is because heat pumps are very efficient when there's not a large temperature change required, but they're efficiency drops dramatically when the outside temperature (or ground temperature) drops below freezing.
The only other two-phase furnace would be a two-phase electric (as opposed to a three-phase electrical furnace.) But I don't think you're asking about 2 vs 3 phase electrical furnace systems... Those are quite rare.
Why does your furnace come on for less than a min and shut back off with red light flashing 7 times?
red light on your furnace blinking 7 times.
This means lockout caused by no ignition (after 3 tries).

How do you change the filters on a hot air furnace?
Furnace should have an on off switch near it. Turn it off. Turn wall thermostat off.
Air filter screens are flat and wide. Typically they slide into the side of your furnace. Some slide in the inside at the large opening where the air flows, and some slide on the outside. Take a flash light and look for a long slot where the unit's filter would slide in. Pull the old one out if it has one.
Inspect it. If it is dirty replace it with the correct fit for your unit. If the furnace is hardly ever used, then it should appear clean. New filters trap dirt, dust, or allergens. Pick one that suits your need. If the unit is not used for a while, then of course, it may be clean. Replace as needed.
Some homes have large ceiling or wall vents with filters behind them. Normally, you will see tabs for opening the grille to install a filter.
A dirty filter will stop air from being blown. A filter is needed to keep dust and dirt out of critical areas of your equipment. Saving you hundreds of dollars in replacement or repair of the unit.
Hope this helps!
How much oil will a furnace burn in 24 hours?
Ours uses 5gallons per day. To calculate yours take how much is the tank and divide it by how long it lasts. Our 150/30=5 and another example 350/60=5.83. These are good for estimating for the exacts check your manual.
