Heat Pump Technology
A heat pump is a central air conditioning and highly efficient heating system that will "extract" heat from the air in the wintertime for cost effective heating comfort in all but the most severe winter climates. The system actually "reverse-cycles" in the heating mode and captures heat from outside and "pumps" it into your home. (More...)
Unlike a furnace it doesn't burn fuel to make heat. It simply uses electricity to move heat from one place to another. In the cooling mode, an air conditioner or heat pump simply capture heat from inside your home and transfer it outside.
In heating, a heat pump actually reverse-cycles and captures heat from outside and moves it inside. This process is more efficient than electric heat as it is much less expensive to transfer existing heat than to actually generate it.
There is usable heat in the air down to about 0 degrees Fahrenheit. It feels cold to us because our skin temperature is 98.6 degrees.
A heat pump's heating capacity is rated at 47 degrees ambient (outside) temperature. As the outside temperature drops the heat pumps capacity drops in a linear fashion relative to the outdoor temperature.
Most heat pumps will produce about half of their rated capacity at 12 degrees ambient. An electric heating element provides supplemental heat to assist the heat pump as it's capacity declines.
The heat pump monitors both the outdoor temperature and inside supply air temperature and energizes the assist as needed, automatically.
The newest SSZ series 16 seer Goodman heat pump condensers represent the latest generation design, packed with high technology features -- Like the Copeland Scroll compressor, absolutely the smoothest, quietest, most durable compressor ever developed. Because it has fewer moving parts, there is very little to wear out. In fact, over time this compressor actually "wears in" and becomes more efficient. Details
Energy Efficiency Is The Key To Reduced Energy Costs
Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio, or SEER, is the measurement of an air conditioner's cooling energy efficiency. This rating system was developed by the U.S. Department of Energy to allow comparison between various models. The newest SSZ series Goodman air conditioner exceeds the federal 13 seer minimum by 23%, ensuring maximum energy savings.
The higher the SEER number, the greater the efficiency... and the lower your operating costs will be.
HSPF provides an efficiency rating for the heating capacity of a heat pump. HSPF stands for Heating Seasonal Performance Factor. This is a comparison of the heating efficiency and with ratings of up to 9.75, the Goodman SSZ series heat pump systems far exceed the federal minimum.
The SSZ series 16 seer Goodman air conditioning system can lower your energy costs by 50% or more when compared to an 8 seer/5.6 HSPF system.
R-410a Refrigerant - Environmentally Friendly
Your new Goodman 16 SEER central air conditioning system is not only easy on your wallet, but is also easy on our environment. Since this refrigerant does not contain Chlorine, it is more environmentally friendly than R-22 refrigerant, the refrigerant currently used in most air conditioning systems. Introduced as the alternative to R-22, R-410a has helped increase the durability and reliability of air conditioning compressors.
Outstanding Features Include:
- Industry leading 10 year warranty on all parts
- The coil uses a rifled, refrigeration-grade copper tube and aluminum fin coil construction for maximum durability and heat transfer.
- All Goodman air conditioning condensers are designed for ground level or rooftop mounting with bottom pan rails to elevate the unit away from moisture.
The maintenance-free condenser fan motor is totally enclosed and permanently lubricated. Plus, the built-in filter dryer removes potentially harmful moisture from the system, providing protection from contaminants
Goodman doesn't cut corners on the cabinet either - it is constructed from heavy-gauge, zinc-clad G90 galvanized steel and is designed to help prevent damage from yard debris and the elements. The special polyester powder paint finish is "baked-on", providing an extra measure of protection for years of long-lasting good looks. This construction design looks great in any architectural environment.
These high-quality components ensure that your new Goodman air conditioning system will comfortably cool and heat your home for years to come.
In addition, the unit has an attractive louvered metal guard that protects the coil from damage plus a powder-paint finish that provides premium durability and improved UV protection.

- A high quality compressor sound-reduction blanket
The result? Quiet and smooth operation that won't disturb you and your family.
Affordable and Efficient Performance
Don't be fooled by the affordable price tag ? Goodman is a leader in home heating and cooling systems. In fact, Goodman is the second largest HVAC manufacturer in the world providing the longest and most comprehensive warranty's in the industry.
Every single unit is run-tested before shipment and leak-tested three separate times during the manufacturing process to ensure a trouble-free installation. Plus, to save costs at installation time the heat pump condenser is pre-charged with R-22 refrigerant for up to 15-20 feet of tubing.
The new Goodman GSH series heat pumps offer affordable, reliable, and quiet operation you can count on year after year.
Copeland Scroll Compressor Details
The Copeland Scroll Story
Once in a while, a new technology is developed that gains widespread acceptance through superior function and design.
The Copeland Scroll Compressor has gained respect and industry-wide acceptance through time-tested field use and not from laboratory theory.
The Copeland Scroll Compressor has proven itself to be the quietest and most dependable ever created.
Here's why:
The Copeland Scroll technology is based on the concept of compliance.Two scroll members interact to simultaneously achieve high efficiency and durability.
This efficient twisting motion greatly reduces the numbers of parts that can fail while eliminating the inefficient up and down piston motion of ordinary compressors.
This unique and patented approach. achieving both radial and axial compliance - provides important advantages:
- Continuous flank contact, maintained by centrifugal force, minimizes gas leakage and maximizes efficiency.
- Radial compliance allows the scroll members to separate the presence of liquid refrigerant or debris, thereby substantially improving durability and reliability.
- Axial compliance allows the scroll to remain in continuous contact in all normal operating conditions, ensuring minimal leakage without the use of tip seals.
- Both radial and axial compliance allow the scroll members to actually wear in rather than wear out.
