Q&A

Q: What components are included in this complete HVAC system?
A: This system pairs a 2.5 ton R‑32 air conditioner condenser (GLXS3BN3010) with a matched R‑32 evaporator coil (CAPTA3626B3) and a 60,000 BTU 80% AFUE two‑stage gas furnace (GMVC800603BN) for reliable year‑round comfort.

Q: What size home is this suitable for?
A: The 2.5 ton cooling and 60,000 BTU heating capacity perform well in small to medium homes, depending on insulation, climate, and duct design.

Q: How efficient is the system?
A: The A/C delivers ~14.5 SEER2 cooling efficiency, while the furnace operates at 80% AFUE, providing consistent performance and balanced energy use.

Q: What type of heating technology is used?
A: The gas furnace features a two‑stage burner and a variable speed blower motor for smoother temperature control, quieter operation, and improved comfort.

Q: What refrigerant does it use?
A: The system uses R‑32 refrigerant, which supports higher efficiency and lower environmental impact.

Q: What installation orientations are supported?
A: The furnace supports upflow or horizontal installation, offering flexibility for basements, closets, attics, or compact mechanical spaces.

Q: Does the evaporator coil offer reliable performance?
A: Yes — the CAPTA coil is AHRI certified with an internal thermal expansion valve for ideal refrigerant flow and efficient heat exchange with the A/C condenser.

Maintenance Tips

• Replace or Clean Air Filters
  Inspect monthly; replace every 1–3 months to maintain airflow and energy efficiency.

• Clean Condenser and Evaporator Coils
  Dirt reduces cooling performance; schedule annual professional cleaning.

• Inspect Furnace Burner and Heat Exchanger
  Annual inspection ensures safe operation and maintains 80% AFUE efficiency.

• Check Condensate Drain and Pan
  Clear any blockages to prevent water damage and maintain AC performance.

• Maintain Outdoor Unit Clearance
  Keep 2–3 ft around the condenser free of debris for proper airflow.

• Verify Thermostat and System Operation
  Ensure heating and cooling cycles function correctly and thermostat is properly calibrated.

• Schedule Annual Professional Service
  Technicians should check gas pressure, electrical connections, and refrigerant levels to prolong system life.
