Who it's for
Cooling a home that needs about 4.5 tons of capacity, replacing an aging AC condenser.
The standout number
SEER2 14.5 (EER2 11.5 at peak 95°F) — higher means lower cooling bills.
The catch
A central AC is contractor-installed — the number that matters is the installed price with a matched coil, so get a few local quotes.

Brand, warranty & reliability
The value leader of the Daikin-owned trio; failure rate now near industry-average with quality much improved since Daikin's 2012 acquisition, and it shares manufacturing (Daikin Texas Technology Park) with Amana and Daikin, so hardware overlaps heavily with pricier siblings.
Reliability is our read of published brand assessments (source), not a certified rating — real-world dependability hinges on a correct install more than the brand. Warranty terms are the manufacturer's (policy) and almost always require online registration within 60–90 days for the full length.
What it costs installed
For a 4.5-ton central AC, replacing an existing system. At SEER2 14.5 (base efficiency), expect the lower half of this range.
- Includes equipment, standard installation, and permit, reusing your existing ductwork and electrical.
- Excludes ductwork replacement, electrical/panel upgrades, and major venting or line-set (refrigerant piping) work — those add cost.
- A national range, not a quote — your price moves with local labor, home layout, and contractor. Always get 2–3 quotes.
Installed ranges reconciled from published 2026 market data (source, more on the costs page); lead-gen figures that omit labor or permits are trimmed out. The certified specs above are exact — installed price is a range that depends on your home.
Rebates & incentives
Central AC rebates are thinner than heat-pump rebates and usually require a high SEER2 tier. The federal 25C credit expired December 31, 2025; the live money is state and utility programs. Check what applies where you live on our rebates page.

Frequently asked questions
How efficient is the GOODMAN GLXS4BA6010A*?
It is rated SEER2 14.5 and EER2 11.5. SEER2 is the seasonal cooling efficiency — the higher the number, the less electricity it uses to remove the same heat. Current federal minimums are SEER2 13.4–14.3 depending on region, so this unit is around the floor.
What does the GOODMAN GLXS4BA6010A* cost to run?
We estimate about $714 a year to cool with it at U.S. average electricity prices and a typical cooling season. Your climate and local power price move the number — cooling cost scales inversely with SEER2.
What refrigerant does the GOODMAN GLXS4BA6010A* use?
R-32, which has a global-warming potential (GWP) of about 675. This is one of the lower-GWP refrigerants replacing R-410A.
Where can I buy the GOODMAN GLXS4BA6010A*?
It's listed online at Amazon, but a licensed pro should still install and charge it for the warranty to hold.
Sources. Performance ratings from the AHRI Directory (cited by reference number 218668868; not a verbatim mirror) and ENERGY STAR certification data. Annual cooling cost and percentile figures are computed by Verified HVAC Data from published ratings and EIA U.S. average electricity prices — see our methodology. Refrigerant GWP is the IPCC value for that refrigerant. We publish no star ratings and take no payment for placement. "Not published" means the source registry doesn't disclose it — we never fill a spec with a guess.
