Sized for Mid-Size Apartments, Condos & Single-Zone Homes
The 2 Ton Goodman GLXS4BA2410 wall-mount system pairs a 24,000 BTU R-32 condenser with the AWST24SU13 air handler, built for spaces that need more capacity than a 1.5 ton unit but still call for a space-saving vertical wall-mount handler. At 14.5 SEER2 on next-generation R-32 refrigerant, it delivers efficient, code-compliant cooling in a compact footprint.
Is a 2 Ton System the Right Size?
A 2 ton air conditioner produces 24,000 BTU, which generally suits spaces of roughly 900 to 1,200 square feet, depending on climate, insulation, ceiling height, sun exposure, and window count. In hot, humid regions like Florida, lean toward the lower end so the system dehumidifies properly instead of short-cycling.
Good fit for: two-bedroom apartments and condos, mid-size single-zone homes, larger additions, and open-concept living areas around 900–1,200 sq ft.
Wrong size? Step down to the 1.5 Ton GLXS4BA1810 (18,000 BTU, 600–900 sq ft), or step up to 2.5 ton for ~1,200–1,500 sq ft.

What's Included
| Outdoor Condenser | Goodman GLXS4BA2410 — 2 Ton, 14.5 SEER2, R-32 |
|---|---|
| Indoor Air Handler | Goodman AWST24SU13 wall-mount, front or bottom return (small chassis) |

Frequently Asked Questions
How many square feet will a 2 ton Goodman system cool?
A 2 ton system produces 24,000 BTU and typically cools about 900 to 1,200 square feet. In hot, humid climates aim toward the lower end so the unit runs long enough to remove humidity. Insulation, ceiling height, and sun exposure shift the real number, so a Manual J load calculation is the most accurate way to confirm.
Should I get the 2 ton or the 1.5 ton GLXS4BA1810?
Choose the 2 ton GLXS4BA2410 (24,000 BTU, 14.5 SEER2) for spaces around 900–1,200 sq ft, higher ceilings, or strong sun. Choose the 1.5 ton GLXS4BA1810 (18,000 BTU, 14.3 SEER2) for smaller spaces around 600–900 sq ft. An oversized unit short-cycles and leaves the room cold but humid, so matching capacity to load matters.
What heat strip sizes are available with the AWST24SU13?
This 2 ton air handler is offered with a factory pre-installed 5 kW (AWST24SU1305) or 8 kW (AWST24SU1308) electric heat strip. Pick based on how much supplemental electric heat your climate requires.
What is R-32 refrigerant and why does this system use it?
R-32 is a next-generation, lower-global-warming-potential refrigerant that replaces R-410A under current EPA rules. It is more efficient to pump and needs less charge volume. This Goodman system ships with a factory-installed R-32 sensor and meets the latest refrigerant and efficiency regulations.
Can the AWST24SU13 air handler use a bottom return?
Yes. The 2 ton and 1.5 ton AWST units use the small chassis, which supports front or bottom return configuration. The larger 2.5 and 3 ton units are front-return only.
Why is this 14.5 SEER2 when the 1.5 ton is 14.3?
SEER2 measures seasonal cooling output against energy used under the stricter M1 test procedure. The 2 ton GLXS4BA2410 is rated 14.5 SEER2 versus 14.3 on the 1.5 ton, a small efficiency difference reflecting how each capacity is matched and tested. Both are efficient, code-compliant single-zone systems.

AWST Warranty Certificate"SEER2" stands for Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio 2. Specifically, SEER2 is the total heat removed from the conditioned space during the annual cooling season. The M1 testing procedure will increase systems' external static pressure by a factor of five to better reflect field conditions of install equipment. With this change, new nomenclature will be used to denote M1 ratings (including EER2 and HSPF2).
