Why it matters to you
Split systems are the common residential setup across Greater Houston, with the indoor half usually in an attic, closet or garage. The two halves are rated as a matched combination, so pairing a new outdoor unit with a mismatched indoor coil can cost capacity and efficiency.
Practical guidance
When replacing one half, ask whether the new outdoor unit and indoor coil are a rated matched combination and which refrigerant the new equipment uses; Goodman's current residential split systems use R-32. Refrigerant line and electrical work is for a licensed technician.
