Efficiency & refrigerant
SEER2 14.5 is the current cooling-efficiency rating (the 2023 successor to SEER, measured under more realistic duct conditions). A higher SEER2 means lower cooling bills for the same comfort; current federal minimums are 13.4–14.3 SEER2 depending on region and equipment type. This unit uses R-32, a current low-GWP (A2L) refrigerant that meets the post-2025 EPA AIM Act standard — future-proof for serviceability. A2L refrigerants are mildly flammable, so above a charge threshold the system needs factory leak detection; a certified installer handles this.
Rebates & tax credits
This category does not have its own line in the federal 25C tax credit. Some matched-system components may still factor into a qualifying installation — confirm with your installer. See the federal credit details →
This is not tax advice. We do not know this exact model's certified efficiency rating, so we cannot say it qualifies for any specific amount. Eligibility depends on the installed system's AHRI-matched rating, your tax liability, and the home being your residence. Always confirm with your installer and a tax advisor.

Matched systems (AHRI)
For ducted split systems, the rated efficiency only holds for AHRI-certified matched combinations of outdoor unit, coil, and air handler. Look up certified matches for this model in the official directory:

A retailer "system bundle" is not proof of an AHRI reference number. Verify the match in the AHRI Directory.
Before you buy or install
An air handler must be matched to the outdoor condenser or heat pump it serves — capacity, coil, and metering device all have to line up, or the system loses its rated efficiency and warranty. Confirm the cabinet airflow (CFM), electric heat-kit compatibility, and physical fit before buying. Installation should be done by a licensed HVAC contractor and typically requires a permit.
Maintenance
Replace the filter every 1–3 months, keep the condensate drain clear, and have the blower and coil inspected annually. A clogged filter is the most common cause of frozen coils and weak airflow.
Goodman GLXS4BA3610, AMST36CU1300 — questions
How much does the Goodman GLXS4BA3610, AMST36CU1300 cost?
One retailer currently lists it at $3,997. That's the equipment price only — installation (labor, matched coil or air handler, permits) adds significantly more.
Is that the installed price?
No — this is the equipment (box) price. A full installed air handlers (matched components, labor, permits) costs significantly more, and that install markup is where quotes vary most.
What refrigerant does the GLXS4BA3610, AMST36CU1300 use?
The Goodman GLXS4BA3610, AMST36CU1300 uses R-32.
Does the Goodman GLXS4BA3610, AMST36CU1300 qualify for a federal tax credit?
The federal 25C credit applied only to systems placed in service on or before December 31, 2025, so it does not apply to new installs after that date. State and utility rebates (via DSIRE) may still apply — confirm eligibility with your installer and a tax advisor.
