5 Ton Goodman 16.2 SEER2 R32 Two Stage Central System GLXT7CA6010, AMVT60DP1300 Variable Speed
The largest system in Goodman's premium GLXT7 line pairs the 60,000 BTU/h GLXT7CA6010 two-stage condenser with the D-cabinet AMVT60DP1300 variable-speed air handler (AHRI #215865329, 16.2 SEER2). It's built for very large homes and single-phase light commercial spaces. The package combines full 5 ton capacity with communicating controls, a two-speed ECM outdoor fan, a factory crankcase heater and a 1 HP variable-speed blower that moves up to 2,000 CFM on high stage. It's cooling only, with support for heat kits up to 25 kW.
Is a 5 Ton Air Conditioning System the Right Size?
At 60,000 BTU/h, 5 tons is the largest single-phase residential size. It's typically considered for large homes, often 2,500–3,000 sq. ft. or more as a rough reference, or for small offices and retail spaces with high loads. Two-stage operation gives this size useful flexibility, running on low stage during milder weather instead of cycling at full capacity.
Confirm the load with a Manual J or commercial load calculation. Verify the ductwork can carry 2,000 CFM on high stage and that the electrical panel can support a 60A-max condenser circuit plus the air handler and any heat kit. Very large or multi-level homes sometimes do better with two zoned systems, and our team can help you compare.
Ideal for: Large custom homes, high-ceiling two-story homes and single-phase light commercial spaces that want premium two-stage, variable-speed comfort.

Recommended home sizes are general guidelines only. Actual system requirements depend on insulation, climate, windows, ductwork, occupancy and a proper load calculation. Request free sizing assistance, contact Budget Heating, or call 813-885-7999.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the 5 ton GLXT7 rated 16.2 SEER2 when the smaller sizes are 17.2?
The GLXT7CA6010 and AMVT60DP1300 combination is AHRI certified at 16.2 SEER2 (#215865329). Goodman's "up to 17.2 SEER2" rating for the series applies to the smaller matched systems.
What do I get over the 5 ton GLXS5 if both are rated 16.2 SEER2?
The GLXT7 package adds a variable-speed AMVT air handler, ComfortBridge™ communicating controls, a two-speed ECM outdoor fan, Copeland ComfortAlert™ diagnostics and a Lifetime Compressor Limited Warranty with registration.
What airflow range does the AMVT60DP1300 cover?
With a 5 ton outdoor unit, Goodman lists 1,340 CFM on low stage and 2,000 CFM on high stage. Your ductwork should be designed to carry the high-stage airflow.
Can the AMVT60DP1300 be used in a zoned system?
Goodman lists the 0230K00007 R-32 zoning accessory kit for all AMVT models. Zoning design and controls should be planned by your installer.
Is there a heat pump version of this 5 ton two-stage system?
Yes. The 5 ton Goodman GLZT7CA6010 two-stage R32 heat pump system pairs with the same AMVT60DP1300 air handler.
Can the AMVT60DP1300 run a low-speed fan-only mode?
Yes. The AMVT air handler provides an adjustable low CFM setting for efficient continuous fan-only operation, which helps circulate and filter air between cooling cycles.

"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).
