Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in this Goodman HVAC system?

The package includes the GLXS5BA3010 air conditioner, GR9T960603BN gas furnace, and CAPTA3626B3 cased evaporator coil.

What is the cooling capacity of this system?

The system provides 2.5 tons or 30,000 BTU of cooling capacity.

Why does the system use a 3-ton evaporator coil with a 2.5-ton air conditioner?

A larger nominal evaporator coil may be paired with the 2.5-ton condenser to achieve the system’s intended efficiency and performance. The applicable AHRI-rated combination should be confirmed before installation.

Is the furnace single-stage or two-stage?

The Goodman GR9T960603BN is a two-stage gas furnace. It can operate at a lower heating level during milder conditions and increase its output when additional heat is required.

What does 96% AFUE mean?

It means approximately 96% of the furnace’s fuel is converted into usable heating energy, providing an estimated maximum heating output of 57,600 BTU.

Does this furnace require condensate drainage?

Yes. As a high-efficiency condensing furnace, it requires an approved condensate drain and appropriate venting installed according to applicable codes and manufacturer instructions.

Does this system require a two-stage thermostat?

A compatible two-stage thermostat is recommended to provide direct control over both furnace heating stages. Final thermostat requirements should be confirmed with the installer.

Does this system use R-32 refrigerant?

Yes. The air conditioner and evaporator coil are designed for R-32 refrigerant.
