System Overview
This Goodman 5-Ton system pairs the GZV7SA6010 variable-speed, inverter-driven R-32 heat pump condenser with the CAPEA6030D3 cased evaporator coil and the MBVK20DP1X00 communicating modular blower. The system is AHRI certified (Certificate #216835314) and rated at 17.0 SEER2 / 9.8 EER2 / 8.8 HSPF2, qualifying for the ENERGY STAR Cold Climate Certified designation.
The modular blower provides variable-speed airflow management with communicating capability for precise system control, while the separate coil allows flexible installation configurations.

What’s Included
- GZV7SA6010 — Goodman 5-Ton Variable-Speed Inverter-Driven R-32 Side-Discharge Heat Pump Condenser (52,000 BTU/h Cooling / 54,000 BTU/h Heating @ 47°F)
- CAPEA6030D3 — Goodman 5-Ton Cased Upflow/Downflow Evaporator Coil, Upflow/Downflow, 24½" Cabinet Width, Internal EEV, All-Aluminum
- MBVK20DP1X00 — Goodman Multi-Position Variable-Speed Modular Blower, Communicating, 24½" Cabinet Width, ¾ HP Variable-Speed ECM
Pro-Installer Tip: Coil Orientation and Refrigerant Line Routing
The Technical Friction: The CAPEA6030D3 coil has a 21" depth designed for easier attic access, but confirm that the upflow/downflow orientation clears drain trap heights and ductwork transitions. On replacement jobs, the all-aluminum coil and R-32-specific EEV require a complete system evacuation—never reuse R-410A refrigerant or line set components without thorough cleaning and leak testing.
The Long-Term Prevention: Ensure the coil drain pan is properly pitched and the secondary drain connection is routed to a visible location. Clogged condensate drains are the number-one nuisance service call in the first year; install a condensate trap and verify flow before leaving the job.
The Expert Validation: After final charge, verify 11±1°F subcooling at the outdoor unit service valve using a digital manifold gauge with R-32 pressure-temperature charts. The GZV7SA6010 uses auto-controlled superheat via the inverter, so focus subcooling verification at the liquid service valve.
The Professional Standard: R-32 is classified as A2L (mildly flammable, GWP 675). All installations must comply with EPA Section 608 certification requirements and ASHRAE 15/34 safety standards. The coil includes a factory-installed R-32 sensor. Ensure adequate ventilation in confined installation spaces per local mechanical code.
Key System Benefits
- Variable-Speed Inverter Technology: The GZV7SA6010 uses a variable-speed swing compressor with inverter drive, modulating capacity from partial load to full output. This reduces short-cycling, lowers sound levels (as low as 45 dBA in Quiet Mode), and improves humidity control compared to single-speed systems.
- ENERGY STAR Cold Climate Certified: This system meets the EPA’s stringent Cold Climate Heat Pump criteria, meaning it maintains effective heating capacity at temperatures well below freezing—delivering 46,000 BTU/h at 5°F and supporting operation down to -10°F.
- R-32 Low-GWP Refrigerant: R-32 has a Global Warming Potential of 675, approximately 68% lower than R-410A (GWP 2,088). This supports AIM Act and EPA Phasedown compliance while delivering improved thermodynamic efficiency per pound of refrigerant.
- Electronic Expansion Valve (EEV) Metering: Both the outdoor unit and the indoor coil utilize EEV technology for precise superheat and subcooling control across all operating conditions, reducing energy waste at part-load compared to fixed-orifice systems.
- Communicating System Architecture: When paired with a Goodman GTST connected thermostat, the system uses two-wire communicating protocol between indoor and outdoor components for coordinated staging, fault diagnostics, and field-selectable boost mode.
