GOODMAN 2 Ton Cased Up-flow/Down-flow Evaporator Coil with Factory-Installed TXV (R-32) CAPTA2422C3

The Goodman CAPTA2422C3 is a high-efficiency, all-aluminum cased A-coil evaporator designed for residential split-system air conditioners and heat pumps using R-32 refrigerant. Rated for 1.5–2 ton (nominal 24,000 BTU) systems, it delivers reliable cooling performance in upflow or downflow configurations and pairs with matching Goodman R-32 outdoor units and compatible furnaces or air handlers.

Dimensions

• Cabinet Width: 21 inches
• Depth: 21 inches
• Height: 22 inches
• Product Weight: Approximately 43 lbs
• Plenum Opening Width: ~20 inches
• Compact 21-inch depth for easier attic or tight-space access

Key Features

• All-aluminum AlumaFin7 construction (rifled/grooved aluminum tubing, enhanced aluminum fins, and end plates) for superior heat transfer and corrosion resistance
• Factory-installed thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) optimized for cooling and heat-pump applications
• Built-in R-32 sensor designed for the lifespan of the coil
• Cased design with galvanized, leather grain-embossed finish
• Single front access panel for simplified service
• Foil-faced insulation to reduce cabinet condensation and thermal loss
• Rust-resistant, UV-resistant, DecaBDE-free thermoplastic drain pan with low water-retention design, primary and secondary drain connections (3/4″ FPT), and drain pan rails for easy coil removal/repositioning
• Standardized copper suction tube stub length
• Sweat connections: 3/8″ liquid line / 3/4″ suction line

Benefits

• Improved efficiency and durability compared with traditional copper coils while remaining more cost-effective
• Precise refrigerant metering via the TXV for better system performance and comfort
• Reduced risk of condensate issues and longer service life thanks to the advanced drain pan and insulation
• Easier installation and service in confined spaces (attics, closets) due to the compact depth and access features
• Environmentally aligned with lower-GWP R-32 refrigerant requirements (AIM Act transition)
• Helps maintain AHRI-certified system efficiencies and supports longer line sets when properly matched

Specifications

• Nominal Capacity: 1.5–2 tons (24,000 BTU cooling)
• Refrigerant: R-32 only (A2L)
• Configuration: Upflow / Downflow (vertical A-coil)
• Casing: Painted cased
• Expansion Device: Factory-installed TXV
• Certifications: AHRI Certified, ETL Listed
• Warranty: 10-year limited parts warranty with online registration within 60 days of installation (standard 5-year unregistered)
• Airflow: Suitable for typical residential systems serving roughly 600–1,200 sq ft depending on climate, insulation, and matched outdoor unit

Compatibility

• Designed exclusively for R-32 systems — not compatible with R-410A (mixing voids AHRI certification and warranty)
• Matches with Goodman R-32 outdoor condensers and heat pumps in the 1.5–2 ton range (examples include models such as GLXS3BN1810/2410 series, GLXS4BA1810/2410, GLZS4BA series, and similar R-32 units — always verify current AHRI matchups)
• Compatible with matching Goodman/Amana furnaces or modular blowers/air handlers in upflow or downflow orientation
• May require a Goodman R-32 furnace integration / refrigerant detection system kit (e.g., 0230K00044) when paired with certain non-A2L furnaces
• Use only AHRI-matched combinations to preserve efficiency ratings and warranty coverage

This coil is a strong choice for new R-32 system installations or replacements during the refrigerant transition, offering solid performance, serviceability, and long-term reliability when properly matched and installed by a qualified technician. Always consult the latest AHRI directory and installation manuals for exact matchups and requirements.
