QUICK FACTS

• This furnace is ideal to heat a smaller house (in average climate conditions)
• 40,000 BTU 96% AFUE two stage variable speed natural gas furnace
• Requires plastic/PVC flue venting
• Can be used in the downflow or horizontal orientation
• Can be converted to propane with an LP conversion kit (sold separately)
• Innovative design for electrical efficiency, safety, and lower sound output

40,000 BTU

The GCVC960403BN Goodman gas furnace has an input of 40,000 BTU’s. The output of the unit is 38,400 BTU’s (input X efficiency = output). This size of furnace is normally suitable for most smaller houses in an ideal climate.

96% AFUE

With one of the highest efficiency ratings available, the GCVC960403BN gas furnace is 96% efficient. At this efficiency, the GCVC960403BN uses only 4% of its gas to operate the furnace itself and 96% of the gas going into the furnace to make your home warm and comfortable. With all gas furnaces at 90% efficiency and above like this one, the flue venting must be plastic or PVC.

Allowing for a more precise air flow output to best suit your home’s needs, the motor on the GCVC960403BN is a variable speed ECM blower motor, the best blower motor that Goodman offers to date. The two stage burner on the furnace allows for a lower output and a higher output for a more precise heat output as needed by your thermostat. Both of these high-end features allow for a small increase in efficiency, but the primary benefits are enhanced comfort and a more stable temperature throughout any season of the furnace’s use.

The GCVC960403BN comes standard with Goodman’s 10 year parts warranty and its exceptional lifetime heat exchanger warranty. In order to maintain this warranty, the installation must follow your state and local codes and the unit must be registered online via Goodman’s website.

The heavy-duty heat exchanger on the Goodman GCVC960403BN gas furnace is designed for constant use to provide enhanced reliability. The aluminized steel structure of this heat exchanger allows for a faster and more efficient heat transfer rate. Moreover, the outer casing on the unit is a heavier gauge of steel, protecting the internals of the furnace and lowering air leakage and furnace operation noise. All of these features enhance comfort and provide durability and reliability for the lifetime of the unit.

The GCVC960403BN furnace runs on natural gas from the factory. When you field-install the optional LP conversion kit (found here at an additional cost), this furnace can use propane instead when the installation requires it. This Goodman furnace is also able to be installed in the downflow or horizontal positions, allowing for a more versatile application potential.

OVERVIEW

Considered part of one of the top-of-the-line series offered by Goodman, the GSZC160241 heat pump condenser is a superior quality of unit. With all of its features, the GSZC160241 continues to promote Goodman’s goals to provide enhanced comfort at a high efficiency while staying under budget.

QUICK FACTS

• Designed to cover a smaller house in average climates
• 2 ton, 16 SEER heat pump condenser
• Two stage compressor
• Low sound output
• Fully charged for up to 15’ of line set
• Factory-installed bi-flow filter drier

2 ton

At 2 tons, the GSZC160241 heat pump by Goodman is suitable for a smaller house in average climate conditions. Please note that for this unit to function, a compatible air handler or coil is required. Sometimes, the air handler or coil that is paired in a system bundle will be larger than the heat pump condenser in tonnage to maintain the unit’s overall efficiency.

16 SEER

At 16 SEER, one of the highest efficiencies on the market for this type of system, the GSZC160241 can save you around 12% in energy bills in comparison to a 14 SEER system, saving you money over time to spend on the things you care about most instead of on your energy bills.

The Goodman GSZC160241 heat pump is built with a two stage compressor, allowing for a more stable temperature output. With its built-in compressor muffler, noise blanket, and superior cabinet insulation, the noise output is decreased to make it almost whisper-quiet, along with the two stage compressor that decreases operation noise output when on the lower stage.

The GSZC160241 heat pump condenser comes standard with a 10 year parts warranty. To provide a peace of mind on its two stage compressor, Goodman also offers a lifetime heat exchanger warranty when paired with a new air handler or coil. All of these warranties require an installation that follows your state and local codes and the unit must be registered online through the manufacturer.

With its durable structure designed for harsh conditions and its paint layer that makes it approved for up to 500 hours of salt spray, the Goodman GSZC160241 heat pump condenser is compliant with Florida 2010 integrity building codes when properly anchored. For enhanced reliability, the liquid line is fitted with a bi-flow filter drier, lowering general wear-and-tear by filtering out impurities and system contaminants. All of these features provide peace of mind to system owners, lowering the costs of equipment upkeep.

In order to provide a faster and less expensive installation, the Goodman GSZC160241 heat pump is factory-installed with pressure switches, a high-capacity muffler, easily accessible gauge ports, and service valves with sweat connections. The cabinet of the unit is also fitted with dual access panels—one on the side and one on the top—to allow for a much easier maintenance procedure should the need for maintenance arise.

OVERVIEW

The Goodman CHPF3743C6 evaporator coil is designed for any installations that the coil needs to sit on its side, in the horizontal position. With its enhanced comfort and superior efficiency design, the CHPF3743C6 is an inexpensive yet quality choice for you.

QUICK FACTS

• 3 to 3.5 ton evaporator coil
• Installable in the horizontal configuration
• Usable with either a heat pump or an AC-only condenser
• Works with R410A or R22 refrigerant
• Low air leakage
• Check flowrater expansion device for use in any application

3 to 3.5 Tons

At an output of 3 to 3.5 tons, the Goodman CHPF3743C6 evaporator coil is ready for almost any horizontal installation at that size. In many situations, a condenser that is paired with the condenser is going to be smaller than this coil. This is intentional and is to maintain the overall unit’s efficiency.
Please note that for this coil to function, a furnace or blower and a condenser is required, all sold separately. This coil is not designed to replace a coil in a single-piece air handler.

Warranty

The CHPF3743C6 coil is covered under Goodman’s standard 10 year parts warranty when the unit is installed following your state and local codes, the coil is paired with a compatible R410A condenser, and the entire system is registered online through the manufacturer.

The Goodman CHPF3743C6 evaporator coil is designed with a durable outer casing and a rust-resistant drain pan to lower general wear and tear to make sure the coil works for years to come. To ease installation, the unit is designed to be slim and able to fit in many crawl spaces and attics, and with its foil-face insulation making the unit’s air leakage minimal, installation location does not necessarily have to be insulated for normal temperature operations. For maintenance, the coil has a split-seam on the front of it for easier access.
