Product Overview
OVERVIEW
The Goodman AMST36BU1300 air handler is designed with an energy-saving, direct drive ECM blower motor and durable cabinet with multiple features that provide an easy installation. With this model, Goodman upholds its goals to bring efficiency and enhanced comfort to a cost-effective solution.
QUICK FACTS
- 3 ton air handler
- Electric heat compatible
- Optimized for use with R-32 refrigerant
- Multi-speed, direct drive ECM blower motor
- Multi-positional (upflow, downflow, or horizontal)
3 Tons
The Goodman AMST36BU1300 air handler is rated for an output of 3 tons. In many cases, the tonnage of the air handler will be larger than the condenser that it is naturally paired with. This is intentional, and is to maintain the overall efficiency of the unit. While the unit does require a condenser to function as part of a heat pump or air conditioner, heat strips may be installed in the air handler to provide straight electric heating, which can be used as an electric furnace on its own or as a backup heat option for a heat pump setup.
Warranty
The AMST36BU1300 comes with Goodman's standard 10 year parts warranty when registered online through the manufacturer. Please note that in order for the warranty to be upheld, the installation must be compliant to all related local and state codes, as well as the unit must be paired with an approved condenser.
Durability and Reliability
With its heavy-gauge cabinet structure and its all-aluminum evaporator to prevent general wear-and-tear, the Goodman AMST36BU1300 air handler is durable in design, making it a reliable solution for your home.
Installation and Maintenance
The Goodman AMST36BU1300 utilizes SmartFrame technology in its sub-structure. This, along with special mounting features on the cabinet, allows for the unit to be easily installed almost anywhere it fits, as it is multi-positional in that it can be installed in the upflow, downflow, or horizontal orientations. For easier maintenance, there are two panels on the front to access vital areas on the air handler.
Enhanced Comfort
The AMST36BU1300 air handler lives up to Goodman's comfort expectations with its multi-speed ECM motor, which provides a more precise and efficient temperature control.
