Legal to install in Florida
Florida's Southeast regional standard requires 14.3 SEER2 minimum on split systems under 45,000 BTU. This unit meets it. The cheaper 13.4 SEER2 systems sold online cannot legally be installed here — something plenty of sellers leave out.

Why this system
Built for Florida, priced without games
What actually matters about this unit — not a spec sheet read back to you.
Legal to install in Florida
Florida sits in the Southeast regional efficiency zone, where split systems under 45,000 BTU must hit at least 14.3 SEER2. This system meets that exactly. Cheaper 13.4 SEER2 units you will find online cannot legally be installed here — a detail plenty of sellers do not mention.
R-32 — the refrigerant that is replacing R-410A
R-32 has roughly a third of the global warming potential of R-410A, is a single-component refrigerant so it can be topped up rather than fully recovered and recharged after a leak, and transfers heat more efficiently. As the industry moves off R-410A, R-32 equipment stays serviceable and supported.
Wall-mount handler fits where nothing else will
The AWST air handler mounts vertically to a wall or between studs at 20.19" wide, so it goes into condos, apartments, garage conversions, additions and utility closets that cannot take a conventional vertical unit. Front or bottom return, so it adapts to your existing duct approach.
Heat included, not an add-on
The 5kW heat kit is factory-installed and wired — 17,065 BTU, which is comfortably enough for Central Florida winter nights. No separate heat kit to source, price and fit.
Built for humidity
Enhanced copper tube with 5mm aluminium fin coil to resist the corrosion that kills coils in Florida, a fully insulated galvanised-steel cabinet, a thermoplastic drain pan that cannot rust through, and a factory-fitted adjustable TXV for correct metering across load conditions.
Buy the equipment, not just the install
Almost every HVAC company in Orlando will only sell you a unit with their labour attached. We will sell you the system on its own. Note that Goodman's parts warranty requires licensed installation and registration within 60 days — worth factoring in before you decide to fit it yourself.
Energy efficiency
14.3 SEER2 and R-32 — what it means for your bill
SEER2 is the cooling you get per unit of electricity across a full season. Florida runs cooling nine months a year, so the number matters more here than almost anywhere else in the country.
SEER2 14.3
Meets the Southeast regional minimum exactly. Every increment above this costs more upfront and pays back over years — we will show you the real math for your usage rather than upselling the biggest number on the shelf.
EER2 11.7
Efficiency at peak design conditions — the 95°F August afternoon when your system is working hardest. This is arguably the more honest number for Florida than the seasonal average.
R-32 refrigerant
About one third the global warming potential of R-410A, with better heat transfer. Single-component, so a leak can be topped up rather than needing full recovery and recharge.
5kW electric heat
17,065 BTU of backup heat, factory-installed and wired. Comfortably enough for Central Florida winter nights without a separate heat kit to source and fit.
Is 1.5 ton right for you?
This system covers roughly 700–1,000 sq ft in Central Florida. That range is wide because insulation, ceiling height, window area and sun orientation all move it.
Good fit
Condos, apartments, additions, garage conversions, small homes, casitas
Check first
900–1,100 sq ft with west-facing glass or a poorly insulated attic
Too small
Anything over about 1,100 sq ft, or open-plan with high ceilings
We run a load calculation before confirming. If 1.5 ton is wrong for your space we will tell you and quote the right size instead — an oversized system in Florida leaves your house cold and clammy because it never runs long enough to pull the humidity out.

Buying options
Three ways to do this
Most Orlando companies will only sell you a unit with their labour attached. We'll do it either way.
Equipment only
Buy the system outright and collect in Orlando. Best for licensed contractors and property managers doing their own installs.
- Condenser + air handler as a matched pair
- Contractor pricing on multiple units
- Manufacturer warranty needs licensed install
- R-32 requires A2L handling certification
Supply + install
We supply the equipment and install it properly — permits, commissioning, the lot. Manufacturer warranty stays intact.
- Old system removal and EPA refrigerant recovery
- Permit pulled and inspection coordinated
- Vacuum verified with a micron gauge, charge weighed in
- 10-yr parts warranty + 1-yr labour from us
Financed install
Same installation, paid monthly through a third-party lender. Subject to credit approval.
- Monthly figure shown next to the cash price
- No prepayment penalty on our lending partners
- Decision usually same day
- Repairs can often be financed too
Warranty, in plain terms
The manufacturer parts warranty requires installation by a licensed contractor to state and local code, plus online registration within 60 days. If you install it yourself, expect reduced cover — worth weighing against the labour saving before you decide.

FAQ
Questions about this system
Sizing, refrigerant, warranty and installation — answered properly.
Typically 700–1,000 sq ft in Central Florida. That range is wide because insulation quality, ceiling height, window area and sun orientation move the answer significantly. A well-insulated 1,000 sq ft condo with north-facing glass is a comfortable fit; a 900 sq ft house with single-pane west-facing windows and an uninsulated attic is not. We run a load calculation before confirming — and if 1.5 ton is wrong for your space we will tell you rather than sell you this anyway.
It is an improvement, not a compromise. R-32 has about a third of the global warming potential of R-410A and better heat transfer, and because it is a single-component refrigerant a leak can be topped up rather than requiring full recovery and recharge. It is mildly flammable (ASHRAE A2L classification), which means it must be handled by a technician trained for A2L refrigerants — the entire industry is transitioning to these, so parts and service availability is growing rather than shrinking. Any competent Orlando HVAC company can service it.
Because at 20.19" wide and stud-mountable it fits places a conventional handler cannot go — condos, apartments, garage conversions, additions and narrow utility closets. If you have been told you need to build a platform or give up closet space for a new air handler, this is the unit that avoids that.
You can buy it from us outright, yes. Two things to weigh: Goodman's 10-year parts warranty requires licensed installation and registration within 60 days, and R-32 is an A2L refrigerant requiring appropriate handling certification. AC replacement also requires a permit and inspection in Orange, Seminole and Osceola counties. If you are a licensed contractor, none of that is an obstacle. If you are a homeowner, the warranty exposure usually outweighs the labour saving.
Removal and EPA-compliant refrigerant recovery from your old system, mounting the new handler, setting the condenser on a pad, new line-set or a verified flush, new disconnect and whip as required, wiring the heat kit to code, pulling vacuum and verifying with a micron gauge, weighing in the charge, setting airflow, permit and inspection, and a documented commissioning report. Plus one year of labour warranty on top of the manufacturer parts warranty.
We can put you in touch with third-party financing for a full system replacement, which is how most Orlando homeowners handle a changeout. Terms depend on credit approval. Ask when you request pricing and we will lay out the actual monthly numbers alongside the cash price so you can compare properly.
Stock changes, so use the availability form and we will confirm current count the same day. These are a limited batch, not an open-ended catalogue listing — when they are gone we will be quoting a different model.
Tell us your square footage on the enquiry form. We source across the full Goodman range plus other major brands, and we hold used compressors in every tonnage from 1 to 5 if you are repairing rather than replacing.
Repairing rather than replacing?
If your system is otherwise sound and it's the compressor that failed, a tested used compressor is usually a fraction of replacement cost. We stock every tonnage from 1 to 5 with a 30-day guarantee.
