The Goodman CAPTA1818B3 is a 1.5-ton (18,000 BTU) all-aluminum cased A-coil evaporator designed for modern R-32 (A2L) split-system air conditioners and heat pumps. It features a factory-installed thermal expansion valve (TXV), AlumaFin7 coil technology, and a compact 17.5-inch cabinet optimized for residential installations.
Dimensions
- Cabinet: 17.5″ W × 21″ D × 18″ H
