Compatibility & Installation Notes

The GLXS5BA3610 / GR9S960804CN / CHPTA4830C3 system is designed for residential horizontal applications. Compatibility with the property’s ductwork, electrical service, natural gas supply, refrigerant lines, condensate drainage, thermostat, and high-efficiency furnace venting must be confirmed before installation.

The evaporator coil has a larger nominal capacity than the outdoor condenser. This type of 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.

As a high-efficiency condensing furnace, the GR9S960804CN requires approved venting and proper condensate drainage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in this Goodman HVAC system?

The package includes the GLXS5BA3610 air conditioner, GR9S960804CN gas furnace, and CHPTA4830C3 horizontal evaporator coil.

What is the cooling capacity of this system?

The air conditioner provides 3 tons or 36,000 BTU of cooling capacity.

Why does this system include a 4-ton evaporator coil?

The 4-ton evaporator coil may be paired with the 3-ton outdoor condenser to support airflow and achieve the specified efficiency rating. The complete combination should be verified as an approved AHRI match.

Is the furnace single-stage or two-stage?

The Goodman GR9S960804CN is a single-stage gas furnace that provides consistent heating output.

What does 96% AFUE mean?

It means approximately 96% of the furnace’s fuel is converted into usable heating energy, providing an estimated heating output of 76,800 BTU.

Does this furnace require condensate drainage?

Yes. Because it is a high-efficiency condensing furnace, it requires proper furnace condensate drainage in addition to drainage for the evaporator coil.

Where can a horizontal HVAC system be installed?

A horizontal system is commonly installed in an attic, crawl space, or another limited-height area, subject to applicable installation requirements.

Does this system use R-32 refrigerant?

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