5 Ton Goodman 16 SEER2 R32 Heat Pump System GLZS5BA6010, AMST60DU1300
Goodman's largest GLZS5B R-32 heat pump system pairs the GLZS5BA6010 outdoor unit with the AMST60DU1300 air handler. The air handler is the line's only D-cabinet model, with a 1 HP ECM blower and 11" x 10" wheel. This AHRI-certified match (AHRI #218222713) is listed at 16 SEER2, the highest efficiency in this product line. It delivers about 57,000 BTU/h of cooling at 95°F and 57,000 BTU/h of heating at 47°F, with 1,810 CFM of rated airflow. It's built for large homes that need maximum single-system capacity, with backup heat options up to 25 kW.
Is a 5 Ton Heat Pump System the Right Size?
Five tons is the top of the residential split-system range, so this system should only be chosen when a load calculation confirms the need. Large square footage, extensive glass, high ceilings, and demanding climates are the usual drivers.
At this size, ductwork has to move about 1,810 CFM quietly, and the electrical service has to support the outdoor unit plus any heat strips. Very large or zoned homes may be better served by two smaller systems, which our team can help evaluate.
Ideal for: Large single-family and estate homes, homes with high ceilings or extensive glass, and residences with a confirmed load near 5 tons.
Need more capacity? The GLZS5BA6010 is the largest size in this line. For larger homes, request a quote for a multi-system or zoned design, or compare the 5 Ton Goodman R32 air conditioner system if you only need cooling.
Recommended sizing is a general guideline only. Actual system requirements depend on insulation, climate, ductwork, windows, occupancy, and home layout. Request free sizing assistance, contact Budget Heating, or call 813-885-7999.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should a very large home use one 5 ton GLZS5BA6010 or two smaller systems?
It depends on the load and layout. A single 5 ton system works when the calculated load is near 5 tons and the ductwork supports about 1,810 CFM. Zoned or multi-level homes may be better served by two systems.
What do you gain moving from the 4 ton to the 5 ton Goodman system?
Rated cooling rises from about 45,500 to 57,000 BTU/h at 95°F. Airflow increases to 1,810 CFM with a 1 HP ECM blower, and the system is listed at 16 SEER2 vs. 15.2.
Why does the AMST60DU1300 use a larger D cabinet?
The 24.5" wide D cabinet houses a larger coil and an 11" x 10" blower wheel with a 1 HP ECM motor to move the higher airflow a 5 ton system needs.
Can the 5 ton system use a 25 kW heat strip?
Yes. A 25 kW breakered heat strip (HKTSD25DA) is offered with this system, and Goodman's AMST heat kit data includes 25 kW kits for the AMST60DU1300. A 25 kW kit requires a substantial electrical supply, so have the circuits sized by a licensed electrician.
How much heat does the 5 ton system produce at 17°F?
Goodman's heating data shows about 37,000 BTU/h at 17°F outdoors for the GLZS5BA6010 + AMST60DU1300, the highest low-temperature output in this line.
How much does the GLZS5BA6010 outdoor unit weigh?
Goodman lists the 5 ton outdoor unit at 309 lb equipment weight and 329 lb shipping weight.
"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).
