Is a 3.5 ton heat pump the right size?

A 3.5 ton heat pump delivers 42,000 BTU/h of cooling and typically fits about 1,800 to 2,100 square feet in Florida. Heat pumps are sized for cooling here, because cooling is by far the larger load. Confirm with a Manual J load calculation before you buy; see the sizing guide.

3.5 ton heat pump or 3.5 ton air conditioner?

Both cool the same way. The heat pump adds efficient heating, so you rarely need the backup strip heater. Our 3.5 ton Goodman AC system is in stock today. The heat pump is a special order and usually costs more. If your current system is a heat pump, or you want to cut winter heating costs, a heat pump is worth the wait. If you heat only a few nights a year, an AC with a small heat kit may cost less overall. Read heat pump vs air conditioner in Florida.

Typically about 1,800 to 2,100 square feet. Heat pumps are sized for cooling in Florida; confirm with a Manual J load calculation.
Does the Goodman 3.5 ton heat pump qualify for the FPL rebate?
It may. At 15.2 SEER2 this match meets FPL's published 15.2 SEER2 tier; the system must be a complete indoor and outdoor replacement installed by an FPL participating contractor, who confirms eligibility.
Can I use my existing air handler with a 3.5 ton R-32 heat pump?
Only if it is an R-32-rated indoor unit approved for the heat pump. R-32 and R-410A equipment cannot be mixed, and the outdoor unit determines the expansion valve the indoor coil needs.
