System specifications

Where the GLXS3BN1810 system fits

A 1.5-ton system moves 18,000 BTU/h of cooling. As a rough rule of thumb in a moderate climate, that covers roughly 600 to 900 square feet of reasonably insulated living space — but square footage is only a starting point. Ceiling height, insulation, window area, sun exposure and duct condition all move the number, so run a proper load calculation (or use our free HVAC system sizing tool and the Goodman sizing and configuration guide) before you commit to the GLXS3BN1810. Oversized equipment short-cycles and leaves the house humid; undersized equipment runs all day on the hottest afternoons.

This package is built for a home that already has a working gas furnace: the GLXS3BN1810 condenser and the CAPFA2422A3 evaporator coil replace the cooling side and sit on top of (or beside) your existing furnace. Confirm the coil’s cabinet width and orientation match the furnace before ordering — this coil is a Upflow/Downflow model.

Efficiency: 13.4 SEER2 explained

SEER2 is the cooling-efficiency rating under the U.S. Department of Energy’s 2023 test procedure. It uses a higher external static pressure than the old SEER test, so SEER2 numbers read a little lower than the SEER figures on older equipment — 13.4 SEER2 is roughly equivalent to 14.1 SEER under the old method. Higher SEER2 means less electricity per unit of cooling delivered over a season — our guide to SEER2, EER2 and HSPF2 covers how much efficiency is worth paying for.

The pairing above is listed under certificate #215287901 in the AHRI Directory of Certified Product Performance, which is the independent record utilities and inspectors check for rebates and code compliance.

Installation notes for the GLXS3BN1810 system

• Refrigerant: R-32. This is a low-GWP A2L refrigerant, not a drop-in for R-410A — line sets, tools and service practices must be R-32 rated, and the work belongs to a licensed HVAC contractor. R-32 vs R-454B explains why the industry moved to these refrigerants.
• Outdoor unit: GLXS3BN1810, single-stage, standard 208/230 V single-phase residential service. Set it on a level pad with clearance on all sides for airflow and service.
• Coil: CAPFA2422A3, Upflow/Downflow. Match cabinet width and airflow direction to the furnace or air handler it sits on.
• Thermostat: any standard cooling/heating thermostat works.
• Not included unless listed above: line set, thermostat, equipment pad, disconnect and any electric heat kit. Call (877) 843-4822 and we will spec them with you.

Warranty and registration

Goodman residential equipment carries a 10-Year Parts Limited Warranty when the equipment is registered online within 60 days of installation; unregistered units revert to the shorter base term, so register every component of the GLXS3BN1810 system as soon as it is installed. Heat-exchanger and compressor coverage vary by model — the exact terms are on the warranty certificate packed with each unit; our HVAC warranty guide explains what voids coverage.

The GLXS3BN1810 is a cooling-only air conditioner; heating comes from the furnace you already have.

What size home does a 1.5-ton system cover?

Roughly 600 to 900 square feet as a rule of thumb, but a load calculation is the only reliable answer. Our sizing tool takes about two minutes.

Does this system include a thermostat and line set?

No. Only the components listed under “What’s included” ship with this system. Line set, thermostat, pad and disconnect are sold separately.

Is the GLXS3BN1810 system AHRI certified?

Yes — this exact combination is listed under AHRI certificate #215287901, which is what most utility rebate programs ask for.
