System Components
- GZV6SA1810A — Goodman 1.5-Ton Variable-Speed Inverter-Driven R-32 Heat Pump Condenser (19 SEER2 / 8.8 HSPF2 / 12 EER2)
- CAPEA2418B3 — Goodman Cased Upflow/Downflow Evaporator Coil with Internal EEV (17½" W x 21" D x 18" H, All-Aluminum, R-32 Optimized)
- GMVM970603BN — Goodman 97% AFUE 60,000 BTU Upflow/Horizontal Modulating Gas Furnace with Variable-Speed ECM Motor, Natural Gas
Pro-Installer Tip
Technical Friction: The GZV6SA1810A's 36⅝" width and side-discharge design means the condenser pad placement must account for both the discharge airflow clearance and the refrigerant line routing to the indoor coil. At 1.5 tons, the ¾" suction line and ⅜" liquid line are smaller than typical 2-ton-and-up systems — do not oversize line sets, as this causes oil return issues on the variable-speed compressor at low capacity stages.
Long-Term Prevention: After completing the final charge procedure per the installation manual (factory charge is for 15' of ⅜" liquid line), verify subcooling at 10±1°F and confirm the EEV in the indoor coil is cycling correctly through the communicating control board. A stuck or slow-responding EEV on initial startup will manifest as poor heating performance during the first cold snap, typically 4–8 months after a summer installation.
Expert Validation: Use a digital micron gauge to verify system evacuation to below 500 microns before charging — R-32's lower GWP does not reduce the importance of proper evacuation. The system's inverter drive board is sensitive to moisture contamination. Confirm the switchover temperature for dual fuel operation is programmed in the thermostat to optimize between heat pump COP and furnace gas cost in your region.
Professional Standard: R-32 refrigerant requires EPA Section 608 certification for handling. While R-32 has a lower GWP (675) compared to R-410A (2088), it is classified as A2L (mildly flammable) and requires compliance with ASHRAE 15 and local mechanical codes for charge limits in occupied spaces. Verify all flare connections with a calibrated torque wrench per the manufacturer's specified torque values.
Key Benefits
- High-Efficiency R-32 Refrigerant: R-32 has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 675, approximately 68% lower than R-410A (GWP 2088), reducing the system's direct environmental impact while maintaining equivalent cooling and heating performance at 19 SEER2 / 8.8 HSPF2.
- Variable-Speed Inverter Compressor: The swing compressor in the GZV6SA1810A modulates capacity from minimum to maximum output, reducing temperature swings, improving humidity control, and lowering energy consumption compared to single-speed or two-stage systems during partial-load conditions.
- Quiet Operation with Quiet Mode: Normal operating sound level of 61 dBA, with a three-level Quiet Mode that can reduce sound output to as low as 40 dBA — suitable for installations near bedrooms, patios, or property lines with noise ordinance concerns.
- Cold Climate Heat Pump Capability: ENERGY STAR® Cold Climate certified, the GZV6SA1810A operates in heating mode down to -10°F ambient, providing 13,000 BTU/h at 5°F outdoor temperature for reliable heat pump operation in northern climates without auxiliary heat dependency.
- Dual Fuel Cost Optimization: Automatically transitions between heat pump operation (higher COP at moderate temperatures) and gas furnace heating (more economical at extreme cold) based on a field-adjustable switchover temperature, delivering the lowest combined operating cost across the full heating season.
- Modulating Gas Furnace Technology: The 97% AFUE furnace features a modulating gas valve that adjusts flame intensity in fine increments, maximizing fuel efficiency and minimizing temperature fluctuations compared to single-stage or two-stage furnaces.
- Electronic Expansion Valve (EEV): The EEV provides continuous, precise refrigerant metering that adjusts in real-time to changing load conditions — a significant upgrade over fixed-orifice pistons or standard TXVs for maintaining optimal system efficiency across the full operating range.

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
