Goodman Introduces CAPFA R32 Coils

Goodman Introduces CAPFA R32 Coils

Goodman is introducing new CAPFA R32 piston coils to replace the existing R410A piston coils.

Background:

• This is part of the transition to A2L refrigerants.
• Goodman is getting a head start on the transition so that when the installation cutoff happens at the end of 2025, it is not a problem for dealers.

Changes to Note:

• Most existing CAPTA coils are replaced on a one-to-one basis.
• Daikin is canceling the last of the older design CAPF coils and replacing them with new CAPFA sizes. This will be happening at the same time as the R32 shift.
• The new R32 coils have factory-installed refrigerant leak detectors.
• R32 equipment uses significantly less charge than R410A.

What’s Staying the Same:

• Warranty is 10-Year Parts (registration required).
• Refrigerant and drain connections are in the same place.
• These use the same high temp drain pans (HTP7) as the older CAPFA and CAPTA models.

Additional Items to Note:

• The refrigerant designator is in position 11. See Appendix Two.
• Sign up to receive your R32 certification! It is not required, but is best practice.
• Have the proper tools to work with R32 and R454B equipment.

Transition:

HVAC Distributors will continue to stock the old models, then transition to the new models when inventory is depleted.
