Goodman 2.5 Ton 17.5 SEER2 R-32 Dual Fuel System
This AHRI-certified dual fuel system (Certificate #215447151) pairs the Goodman GZV6SA3010 2.5-ton variable-speed inverter-driven R-32 heat pump condenser with the GRVT801005CN 80% AFUE two-stage gas furnace (100,000 BTU/h input) and the CAPEA3626C3 cased upflow/downflow evaporator coil with factory-installed electronic expansion valve (EEV). Rated at 17.5 SEER2 / 10.0 EER2 / 8.5 HSPF2, this matched system delivers 28,400 BTU/h cooling capacity and 28,800 BTU/h heating capacity at 47°F. The outdoor unit is ENERGY STAR® Cold Climate Certified and operates on low-GWP R-32 refrigerant (GWP: 675).

- GRVT801005CN — Goodman 80% AFUE Two-Stage Variable-Speed ECM Gas Furnace. 100,000 BTU/h input capacity with two-stage gas valve that provides low-fire and high-fire operation. Downflow configuration, 21" cabinet width. Natural Gas emissions rated.
🔧 Pro-Installer Tip
The Technical Friction: When installing this dual fuel system with a downflow furnace and upflow/downflow coil in a closet or utility room application, verify the combined height of the furnace and coil assembly clears the available vertical space. The 26" coil height stacked with the furnace can challenge tight mechanical rooms, particularly in retrofit applications where the original equipment had a smaller footprint.
Long-Term Prevention: With R-32 refrigerant at 76 oz factory charge, ensure all brazed joints are nitrogen-pressurized during brazing and leak-tested to 500 PSI standing pressure for 20 minutes minimum. R-32 operates at slightly higher pressures than R-410A, and micro-leaks at field connections are the leading cause of nuisance low-charge lockouts within the first 12 months of operation. Pull the system vacuum to 300 microns or below and verify it holds under 500 microns for 15 minutes.
Expert Validation: Use a calibrated digital micron gauge (not a compound gauge) to verify vacuum levels. A digital manifold with R-32 PT tables ensures accurate superheat/subcooling verification at commissioning. The GZV6S outdoor unit targets 76 oz factory charge for 15 ft of ⅜" liquid line — adjust charge per the installation instructions for longer line sets.
Professional Standard: All R-32 installations require EPA Section 608 certification. Verify local mechanical codes for furnace clearance-to-combustibles, particularly in downflow configurations where the heat exchanger proximity to flooring materials must meet NFPA 90B standards. Confirm the condensate drain meets local plumbing code requirements for both the evaporator coil and the furnace secondary heat exchanger.
Key Benefits
- Dual Fuel Flexibility: System automatically switches between electric heat pump operation and gas furnace heating based on outdoor temperature, optimizing energy costs across all climate conditions.
- High-Efficiency Ratings: 17.5 SEER2 cooling and 8.5 HSPF2 heating efficiency with 80% AFUE gas furnace backup delivers year-round energy savings compared to standard single-fuel systems.
- Variable-Speed Operation: The inverter-driven compressor adjusts capacity continuously to match actual load conditions, reducing temperature swings and improving humidity control during partial-load operation.
- Low-GWP Refrigerant: R-32 refrigerant (GWP: 675) reduces environmental impact by approximately 68% compared to R-410A (GWP: 2,088) while delivering comparable or improved heat transfer efficiency.
- Quiet Performance: Outdoor unit operates at 67 dBA in cooling and 70 dBA in heating under normal mode, with Quiet Mode reducing sound levels as low as 45 dBA for noise-sensitive installations.
- Two-Stage Furnace Heating: The two-stage gas valve provides low-fire operation for mild conditions and high-fire for peak demand, improving comfort and reducing fuel consumption.

Let customers speak for us
I absolutely love how easy it is to use and how well they fit and look. Awesome!!
Excellent. Placed unit in a two room cabin with each inside unit on the same common wall. Outside temps were in the low 40’s and the cabin was quickly warmed.
Very easy to install, and with a little trouble shooting with help from tech. it was very quietly putting out ice cold air... Had a bad fuse in my disconnect....
This is a good air conditioner for the price. Our apartment living room and kitchen have been kept nice and cool. The complex we moved into actually already had these installed but I have been so happy with the performance I purchased one for my mom who lives in a tiny home, I'm an HVAC tech and it was about time to replace her HVAC. Yes, I recommend this.
We have zero regrets! No wait, one. That we didn’t get them sooner! We (my husband, self and 19yr old son) work outside noon-8am several days a week in Texas. It doesn’t matter how low you set your AC unit it’s just never enough and it just runs it into the ground. We finally decided to pull the plug. In my 40 years I’ve never slept so good. It’s like hotel good but in your own bed!!! Install was super easy because I watched him do it, LOL. I kid. I’ll ask for his install input and update but seriously he installed all 4 (3 bedrooms and 1 living room) in 2 days. Probably wouldn’t have taken so long if he didn’t have to pour a pad for them but it was well worth it! Last pic is from the Nest. They were installed Friday. Compare usage from Sat & Sun to before we got them! Insane!!!
This was best investment I've ever made. I put this on the wall on my porch that I've converted to a sun room. This extra space that I enclosed with plexiglass and wood and sealed with insulation stayed about 20 degrees different from out side. With a window unit and heaters. Now with the split unit it stays what ever temp I want it to be. The della split unit is so quite I have to put my ear on it to hear it run sometimes the out side unit is even quite. If you mount on outside wall that is a little thin and only a few inches thick it might give a little bit of a hum but so slight you have to want to hear it. Turbo cool or heat will cool or heat super fast. The system is perfect 👌 👍 🥰. I love it.
I live in Florida and our summers are brutal. I installed this in my garage.
It wasn’t a hard install but it took my dad and I about 8 hours. He ran the electrical.
Around this time of the year, my garage is around 82 degrees and +70% humidity, the air is very wet.
This morning it was 74” and 52% humidity.
The indoor and outdoor units are remarkably quieter compared to our house’s HVAC system.
I bought and installed 2 of the della mini splits in the last 8 months, one for my double wide 1800 sqf that I am remodeling little by little, and another for my daughters craftsman home. What an improvement! So silent! So efficient! So easy of operating. For the last 10+ years, we have been using windows AC units and radiant heaters after our central heat and air system broke. The suffering is over. We are saving $100 a month on the power bill and enjoying ourselves inside now. Our Great Pyrenees friends are enjoying the AC's too during the scorching hot summer days. They are pretty easy to install. Follow the instructions on the book and watch some videos on YouTube. On the second install, I made an electrical mistake and purchased the wrong breaker. I am only a landscaper by the way. No problem! I called the technical support number and a very nice tech called me back after just a few hours and figured it out by phone within 5 minutes. It is all great! We just keep it simple by using the remotes. I love the delay timer option. Now that the weather is cooling down (80's max), I set the timer so it doesn't come ON automatically before 12 pm. By the time the girls come from school, 75°f is back as set. GREAT PRODUCT, GREAT TECHNICAL SUPPORT
Installation was a breeze. Unit is working flawlessly. I love that it connected to my Alexa and I can voice control or use the Della app. I am going to purchase a second Della for our guest home.
Got these panels for my backyard as the wall for the Composting area. Black is good for absorbing the heat of the sun and is easy to hide the ugly things. It is a good quality product. The foot support is stainless steel and long enough to bind the ground and the panels. As it is with a good quality, it is just a little heavy, which may require two people to move around or install it.
Solid plastic material. Assembly was easy with a power screwdriver. Looks better than an ugly air conditioner unit.
Great value and just the right size. Note that if you want to place them in a straight line, you will need to use an electric screwdriver to tighten the screws.
Made from good quality materials. Very easy to install and assemble. Looks great to hide the trash bins. Would buy more for AC.
I use it to cover the trash can. It is very practical. This way you can't see the dirty surface of the trash can. I strongly recommend it.
Great product. Installation was very easy
