Compatibility & Installation Notes
The GLXS5BA3010 / GR9S801005CX / CHPTA3630C3 system is intended for residential horizontal applications. Compatibility with the property’s ductwork, electrical service, natural gas supply, refrigerant lines, condensate drainage, thermostat, and furnace venting must be confirmed before installation.
The evaporator coil has a larger nominal capacity than the outdoor condenser. This pairing may be used to achieve the listed efficiency rating, but the complete equipment combination should be verified using applicable manufacturer documentation and an AHRI-certified system match.
Because this system includes a 100,000 BTU furnace, a professional heating-load calculation is recommended to ensure the furnace is appropriately sized for the property.
Installation Notes
- Verify compatibility with the existing horizontal ductwork
- Confirm electrical service and natural gas connection requirements
- Check the required refrigerant line sizes before installation
- Install approved furnace venting and proper evaporator-coil condensate drainage
- Perform a heating-load calculation to confirm appropriate furnace sizing
- Confirm the complete matched-system efficiency through AHRI documentation
- Installation should be completed by a qualified HVAC professional
