The Goodman Manufacturing Co. L. P. CKL (GOODMAN-CKL) [Note 1], is a separate obscure, discontinued builder-grade, budget-friendly, residential 10 SEER Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) /ˈeɪtʃˌvæk/ split-system condenser produced and manufactured by Goodman Mfg. between 1998 and January 2006. The CKL was an updated version of the CK, primarily with the all-new and then-standard louvered guard. In late 1997, Goodman Global had proposed the CKL as the newer variant of the CK. Most of these units were rated 10 SEER. For this air conditioner, Most units typically use a Copeland Reciprocating compressor, and all units to be charged with factory charge. [4] When installed, it is then charged with R-22 refrigerant. Initially, they were marketed under the 'Survivor' series on Goodman's website. Goodman decided that the nickname was dropped in 2001, when the CKL became standard in production to replace the older CK series. These units were designed for either ground-level installation or rooftop installation. [5] There were variations, like the CPKE, CPKJ, CLJ, CRT, CLT, TWC, CLQ, HDC, CPLE, CPLJ, and CPLT split system remote coolers.[4] The CKL was a CK with louvered guard that protects the coils from damages. The older Goodman Manufacturing Co. L. P. CK (GOODMAN-CK) [Note 2] [3] which was produced between 1995-2001, was identical to the CKL, except that it had the older, basic "wire-cage" guard.
Technical information
edit
Weight of these units generally range from 1.5 ton to 5 tons, and commercial tonnage ranges from 7.5 to 10 tons. [6] [3][4] All of these units were ARI (now AHRI) certified, with a sticker on the side of its data sheet, according to ARI standard 210/240.[4] All units must use R-22 refrigerant to function correctly. On some units there is to be a yellow caution sticker, on the side of the data sheet, often found with multiple ARI stickers. Yellow caution stickers are often found on the side of the data sheet alongside multiple ARI (now AHRI) certification stickers. The data sheet is on a 45° mounted panel below the control panel. [5] There might potentially be a secondary yellow caution sticker on the top of the unit as well. These units were purchased rapidly at the time they came out, most of the units that were purchased was the CKL18 (1.5 Ton), CKL30 (2.5 Ton), CKL36 (3 Ton), and CKL42 (3.5 Ton). Copeland Scroll-powered versions were the CKL60 and CKL62 (5 ton). CK models like the CK36-1B, CK30-1D, CK24-1B, CK24-1, CK18-1, and CK42-1 [4] were common in households. 5 ton models were the CK60-1 and CK62-1, which used a scroll compressor. Cabinets of both of these HVAC systems had been painted in the "Architecture gray", or "Polyester powder" paint with 500-hour salt-spray approval. [4]There is a service manual, which must be used by HVAC technicians. These services manuals are provided: [7] These units mainly were used in multiple homes and businesses. As of 2025, these have fell out of favor, making them to be replaced by other units. [4][8][3][3] The Goodman CKL featured a then-standard louvered guard that protects the coils from damage. [1] Older CK/CKL models typically have rust, which signifies its age. The CKL introduced the standard louvered coil guard that later became standard on all Goodman units.
Manufacturer
editAll Goodman Mfg. CK/CKL models (such as CK30-1B, CKL49-1A, CKL120-4L, CK42-1, CK60-1, CKL24-1G, etc.) including commercial ones, were manufactured at Goodman's plant in Houston, Texas, within United States of America, beginning in the mid 1995-early 1996 with the CK, the CKL in 1998, and becoming standard in 2001, and ending in January 2006 with the final CKL produced. The units were produced during the shift to 10 SEER and R22 refrigerant, making them a point of historical interest in HVAC technology transition. [5] If the better units had higher SEER ratings, then these units had low efficiency since it had a 10 SEER rating. This made the units be mandatory to phase out, which in turn are to start being replaced by newer versions of the air conditioner, since new mandatory 13 SEER regulations rolled out soon, at the time that the banning of R-22 refrigerant was in effect. [9] In order to prolong life of this system, all of these units had a steel-cased, liquid line filter drier. All of these units were built with a heavy-gauge, zinc-clad, G90 galvanized steel cabinet in order to prevent rusting. [8] Any units that use a reciprocating compressor, or even a scroll, use a hermetic Copeland, Bristol or Tecumseh compressor, meaning that the compressor is entirely sealed, and welded. The Copeland Scroll compressor was also hermetic as well. In 2006, a 13 SEER mandate was enacted, requiring all new HVAC systems to have a minimum SEER rating of 13, forcing the CKL to end production, mainly due to the 2005 Energy policy act. [Note 3] [1]
Certain parts are available for the Goodman CK/CKL in case they get damaged. Parts include the condenser motor, compressor, blades, top, etc.[10]
Compressors
editMost of these units mainly used either Bristol, Copeland, or Tecumseh hermetic reciprocating Compressors, with the exception of the CKL60[6], CKL62[6], CKL090[6], and CKL120[6], which all used a single Copeland Scroll. If the unit [6] uses a reciprocating compressor, it generally is a Copeland, [6]Bristol, or Tecumseh hermetic compressor [6]at the base. There may be a chance that the compressor may fail on some rare occasions. Copeland-Scroll powered units (e.g. CKL60, CKL62) have a scroll compressor that has fewer parts, thus, reducing the chance that the compressor would fail. The CKL24-1E [11]& CKL24-1G were the only models to ever have a Tecumseh compressor. [11] The majority of Goodman CKL models used Copeland "CR" hermetic reciprocating compressor, while the Goodman CK used Bristol Compressors or Tecumseh compressors.
Compressors Used for the CKL models
editBristol Compressors
edit- All CKL18-1, CKL18-1B, CKL18-C, CKL18-1M, CKL24-1, CKL24-1D, CKL24-1F, CKL24-1H, CKL24-1M, CKL30-1, CKL30-1D, CKL30-1E, CKL30-1F, CKL36-1, CKL36-1D and CKL36-1F models used Bristol reciprocating compressors, sourced from either the H23B223ABCA, H29B28UABCA, or H29B35UABCA.
Copeland Reciprocating compressors
edit- All CKL18-1D, CKL18-1L, CKL24-1K, CKL24-1L, CKL30-1G, CKL30-1L, CKL36-1E, CKL36-1G, CKL36-1H, CKL36-1K, CKL36-1L, CKL42-1L and CKL49-1L models used Copeland's "CR" series of reciprocating compressors, sourced from either the CR16KF-PFV-230, CR22KF-PFV-230, CR28K6-PFV-220, CR34K6-PFV-220, CR35K6-PFV-233, CR38K6-PFV-220 or CR42K6-PFV-223.
Tecumseh compressors
edit- All CKL24-1G and CKL24-1E models were the only ones to utilize Tecumseh "AW" reciprocating compressor, sourced from only the AWH5522EXN.
Certifications
edit- ARI Standard 210/240: The CKL units are certified by the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI), ensuring that the cooling capacity and efficiency ratings (SEER/EER) meet industry standards.[7]
- ETL Listed, ETL Verified: ETL Listed: The units are ETL listed, indicating they comply with North American safety standards for electrical equipment.[7]
- UL Listed: As standard with Goodman equipment of that era, they were manufactured to meet safety standards, often listed by UL or similar bodies.[7]
- ENERGY STAR qualified (certain models): Many models (CPLT & CLQ) are ENERGY STAR® qualified, which means they meet strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.[7]
- ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified for quality and environmental management: Goodman manufacturing facilities for these units are ISO 9001 certified (quality management) and ISO 14001 certified (environmental management).[7]
- Florida Building Code Compliance: When properly anchored, the CKL series meets the 2001/2010 Florida Building Code unit integrity requirements for high-wind/hurricane-type, allowing for ground-level or rooftop installation.[7]
- DOE Efficiency Standards: The units comply with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) minimum efficiency standards, with models manufactured to meet specific SEER/EER requirements, historically designed for 10+ EER performance. [7]
Electricals
editBoth the CK & CKL were available in either a single-phase or a three-phase form with the commercial 7.5 - 10 ton models exclusively available in three-phase form. [7] The commercial 7.5 and 10 ton models were offered in both 208/230V and 460V configurations. If a problem was to occur, the main power must be off. It must be handled correctly; serious injury or death may occur if not handled correctly. The condenser motor was designed for permanent split-capacitor (abbreviated PSC) operation. A Hard Start kit could be put in to extend the A/C unit's by providing the compressor move power to start up reliably on single-phase CKL models, while the three-phase models cannot.
Louvered guard
editThe CKL featured a louvered guard that protects the coils from damages, thus reducing the chance that the coils would leak out refrigerant. [Note 4] [1] Both the CK/CKL had pans that raised the unit above the slab for drainage. [3] The CK was offered either with a Bristol Reciprocating compressor or a Copeland Reciprocating compressor while the CKL and the CK had an additional Tecumseh Reciprocating compressor, or a Copeland Scroll. [12]
Nomenclature
editIn order to tell a model name, the designation is on the data sheet; the designation is like this: For example, a CKL18-1 would be designated: CKL: a modified CK with a louvered guard, 18: 1.5 ton, 18,000 BTU (fered), -1: Revision[12]
Depending on sizes, the CK/CKL may use either a Bristol, Copeland, or Tecumseh reciprocating compressor; albeit; larger sizes may use a Copeland Scroll. If the size is 18, for example a Goodman CKL18-1, the CKL18-1 used the reciprocating bristol compressor. Its weight was 1.5 ton for the CKL18-1. [3]
Model breakdown
editHistory
editCK History
editThe Goodman CK begun production in 1996, as a 10 SEER rated air conditioner. This A/C unit had the basic "CK" grill, and in June 1998, the CKL started production. They were built on the new "Cube" platform. They started production as a result of Janitrol Air handlers being shortened to a cube. Production ended in 2001 as a result of the CKL becoming standard in production. [3][11]
CKL History
editThe Goodman CKL begun production in 1998, as a 10 SEER rated air conditioner. This A/C unit had the new louvered guard, and in 2001 the CKL became standard in production. They started production as a result of Goodman prioritizing safety on their A/C units. Production ended in 2006 as a result of the new 13 SEEER regulations being enacted. The CKL replaced the older CK line.[3]
Electrical data
editGoodman CKL series air conditioners are 10 SEER, R22-based residential and light commercial split systems (1.5 to 10 tons) manufactured between 1998-2006. They generally operate on 208/230V, 1-phase or 3-phase, 60Hz power, with common, smaller units (1.5-2 ton) requiring 20-30A maximum overcurrent protection and larger 5-ton units (CKL60) requiring 50A.
Electrical Data for CKL Series (208/230V, 1-Phase)
editFuses
edit- CKL18 (1.5 Ton): ~12-13 MCA, 20A Max Fuse [8]
- CKL24 (2 Ton): ~14-17 MCA, 20-25A Max Fuse [8]

- CKL49 (4 Ton): ~25-27 MCA, 40A Max Fuse [8]
- CKL60 (5 Ton): ~33-35 MCA, 50A Max Fuse [8]
The units must be protected by either time-delay fuses or Heating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration (HACR) type circuit breakers. [8]The required fuse size (Maximum Overcurrent Protection - MOP) varies based on the specific model (CKL18 through CKL60), typically ranging between 15 to 40 amps depending on the capacity in tonnage. [8]The unit is designed to be connected to a disconnect box located near the outdoor condenser. [8]The indoor air handler or furnace control board associated with the CKL system typically features a 3-amp or 5-amp automotive-style fuse to protect the 24V control circuit. [8] Models: CKL18-1C, CKL24-1H, CKL30-1F, CKL36-1H, CKL42-1A, CKL60, CKL090 (3-phase), CKL120 (3-phase). [8]

Variants
editThere were three variations of the CKL. All of them were heat pumps. SEER ranged from 10 - 13. SEER2 can reach up to 13.1. All of these were discontinued after 2005 due to the 13.8 SEER mandate.

Defrost
editAll Goodman CPLE, CPLJ, CPLT, CPKJ, CPKT, and CPKE have a defrost control board. [16] They used time-initiated tempature-terminated defrost control. All Heat Pump models have a Check-flowrater expansion device, low pressure switch, discharge line muffler, suction line accumulator, and additional wires to provide both heating & cooling. They used a Copeland Scroll compressor with a Sound blanket to reduce noise. They featured R-410A (for some models), different fan grille (on CPLT models), and four-bladed fan blades (on CPLT, CPLJ and CLQ models).[16]
Other variations
edit- A derivative of the CKL, and 14 SEER variation, was available only in straight-cool configuration, and may qualify for ENERGY STAR. They were known as the Goodman CLQ, identical to the CKL, but painted in Architectural Grey for most units and featured R-410A refrigerant (newer models), Copeland Scroll Compressor with a sound blanket, PSC motor designed for 830 RPM, and a different fan grille. They as well with the CPLT & CPLJ, had a four blade fan.[18] No 1.5 ton was offered. The 2 ton through 5 ton variations were designed for the CLQ.
- The CPKE/CPKJ was a heat pump variation of the CK, and had the older "CK" coil grill. As the CPLE and CPLJ replaced these units, it was also removed along with the CPKJ, and the CK.[19]
- A 13 SEER Variant, similar to the CPLT but used the wire-cage guard of the CPKE and CPKJ was the CPKT. They, as well with the CPLT and CLQ was ENERGY STAR qualified.
- A Higher SEER variation of the Goodman CK was the CKJ. The primary difference within the Goodman CK and CKJ models lies in their Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER). The CK series were 10 SEER units; the CKJ series were higher-efficiency 12 SEER units.
- The Goodman HDC was a unit, unlike the CKL, instead of blowing air up, they do it horizontally. HDC units discharge air horizontally.
Features for the HDC
edit- HDC models feature variable-speed inverter compressors that modulate output, providing consistent comfort and high energy efficiency (up to 24.5 SEER).[7]
- Models include ComfortBridge™ technology for system-wide optimization and communicating thermostats for enhanced control and diagnostics.[7]
- The HDC has features like high-density sound blankets and quiet-mode settings that help reduce noise, with some models achieving sound levels as low as 45 dBA.[7]
- They are a versatile choice for homes, multi-family dwellings, and light commercial buildings, offering a robust, energy-efficient solution. [7]
Features for the TWC
edit- TWC models shared features from the CKL and HDC, but instead, the TWC is a through-the-wall air conditioner, known as a "Wall-Mount".[20]
- TWC models were only offered in 1.5 ton, 2 ton, or 2.5 ton.[20]
- Features of the TWC include a hermetically sealed scroll compressor, enclosed and permanently lubricated condenser motor, rectangular chassis, and wire cage coil guard, similar to the Goodman CK, with external changes. The 1.5 ton version was the only TWC to use a reciprocating compressor. [20]
Information
editAll of these variations were capable of both heating & cooling. These units may have a reverser valve. The Goodman CPLJ & CPLT both had four blades and were designed for permanent split-capacitor (abbreviated PSC) operation. These units were designed to replace their older ancestors, like the CPKJ & CPKE, which both featured the old CK coil grill. These units had just a louvered guard that protects the coils from damages. The CLQ had the same features as the CPLT & CPLJ, but without the reverser valve. [18]
Air handler and Coil Compatibilities
edit- CA and CH indoor coils
- U, UC, H and HT fan-less indoor coils for heat pump or cooling applications
- ARPT, ARUF and AEPT multi-position electric heat air handlers
- ARPF dedicated downflow electric heat air handler

Application
editThe Goodman CK/CKL series are 10 SEER residential split-system air conditioning condensing units manufactured between 1998 and 2006, designed for ground-level or rooftop installation.[3] These units, ranging from 1.5 to 5 tons, are used in residential cooling applications, often paired with compatible Goodman evaporator coils (CA, CH, U, UC, H, HT) and air handlers (ARPT, ARUF, AEPT). [3]The units feature a raised base pan for better water drainage and a louvered metal guard for coil protection in various outdoor locations.[3]They are primarily used to provide air conditioning for homes. It is designed to work as an outdoor condenser unit with indoor air handlers or coils. They have service valves for easier maintenance. [3]
Impact
editThe Goodman CKL impacted the HVAC industry by prioritizing reliable, cost-effective and efficient HVAC systems.
Affordability and Market Expansion
edit- Harold Goodman's vision was to provide reliable equipment at a price point that was affordable to as many people as possible. [3]The CKL series was a key part of this strategy, positioning Goodman as a leader in budget-friendly, dependable cooling solutions, especially for the residential and multi-family segments. This approach challenged premium brands and expanded the overall market for central HVAC systems. [3]
Contractor-Friendly Design
edit- The founder was a former HVAC contractor and designed the units to be simple to install and service, solving many common problems encountered with other manufacturers' designs. Features like standardized dimensions and connection types, a factory-installed filter drier, and a design that was forgiving to operate simplified the installation process, potentially reducing labor costs and making them a good choice among independent contractors.[3][7]
Focus on Core Reliability
edit- The CKL was built with high-quality, durable components, such as a hermetically sealed compressor and a louvered metal guard to protect the coil from damage. [3] The "Survivor" series (as it was initially known) emphasized longevity and robust performance, which helped build Goodman's reputation for dependable, no-frills equipment that lasted a long time if properly installed.[3]
Standardization and Efficiency Compliance
edit- The CKL was manufactured to meet the 10 SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) minimum standard prevalent at the time of its production (1998-early 2006). [3]Goodman's ability to mass-produce units that met efficiency standards in a cost-effective manner helped normalize these standards across the industry, driving a general shift toward more energy-efficient practices that would evolve with subsequent regulatory changes (e.g., the 2023 DOE regulations).[3]
Accessibility of Parts and Documentation
edit- Goodman's widespread distribution network and extensive documentation simplified maintenance and repairs for technicians, making parts readily available and contributing to the systems' overall serviceability and longevity in the field. [3]
Goodman CK vs. CKL
edit| Features | Goodman CK | Goodman CKL |
|---|---|---|
| Era | Older (pre-1998/2001) | Newer (1998-2006) |
| Coil Guard | No (Open Coil) | Yes (Louvered) |
| Durability | Standard | High (Reinforced) |
| Efficiency | 10 SEER | 10 SEER |
| Refrigerant | R-22 | R-22 |
Due to their age (pre-2006), these units likely use R-22 refrigerant, which is no longer produced and is expensive to service.[8] When looking for parts, the CKL is generally considered the successor to the CK. [8] The CK was a basic 10 SEER rated air conditioner, while the CKL had a louvered guard.[8] When the CKL succeeded the CK, it was described as "Nothing more than a CK with a louvered guard". [8]The Goodman CKL impacted the HVAC industry by introducing standardized louvered coil guards. [8]
Differences
editThe CK [11] and CKL shared almost all of its features. They shared their hermetic compressor, filter drier, condenser motor, evaporator coils, and wiring. The CK had a "vertical rectangular-like" grid coil guard. This design was known as the "Wire cage". The CK had basic features. The CKL version had a louvered guard. The Goodman CK was based off of Janitrol's model, albeit had goodman's data sheet. Janitrol models had a bristol/tecumseh compressor. [3] The design for the CKL was based off the CK, which was based off of a Janitrol model, which wanted to shorten the frame, from their air handler to a cube. This nicknamed them "Cubes" since the design was similar to and was looking like a cube. This design is variable depending on tonnage. [12] 3 ton versions usually have this design, while other units, like the CKL18, had this design. This trademark design became standard after, beginning with the already old and aging CK, and so on all newer models after the CK would have this design. [12] Later years on newer models, they had been modified, particularly on the sides, to be slightly convex around the center on all four sides; some units used the CKL design; albeit modified below the pipelines, and top, as well as the sides. The tops of newer units featured a design at the center at the top of the motor, which resembled a four-leaf clover on the top; albeit modified. They have a large, flat circle at the center of the "clover" design.
Problems
editIncidents
editStarting in 2014, the Goodman CKL had issues, primarily with the evaporator coils, which would prematurely rupture and leak R-22 freon refrigerant out, causing some units to stop functioning correctly.[21][22] Consumers were filing class-action lawsuits about CKLs failing due to the evaporator coils rupturing. However, Goodman failed to address these issues and as a result, Goodman Manufacturing Co. had to pay a fine in order to compensate for defeating the class-certification and the refusal to address the issues. In some cases during 2016-2017, Goodman Furnaces even had an electric shock hazard.[23][24]Coils were reportedly too thin, corroded, and cracked, causing refrigerant (Freon) to leak under normal use. [24]The Loss of refrigerant made units unable to cool or heat properly, stopping them from working as intended. [24] Goodman's warranty covered parts but not labor, leaving consumers with high costs (hundreds to thousands of dollars) for replacement, sometimes as much as buying a new unit, and Lawsuits claimed Goodman knew about the high failure rates but failed to inform consumers or provide adequate compensation for labor. As a result of the evaporator coil lawsuits and Goodman failing to address them, this made Goodman probationarily be forced to raise the issues. [24][25][26]
2021 - 2024 Incident
editBeginning in 2021, Goodman Global had announced one of the largest recalls ever, specifically with a severe fire hazard involving defective molded plastic drain pans. What were involved in the incident were certain Goodman units, like the CKL. Affected units were affected by melting plastic drain pans, posing a fire hazard. [27] The recall covers specific models of Goodman-branded units, including some CKL/packaged units manufactured between 2019 and early 2024. The molded plastic drain pan under the evaporator coil can overheat and melt, posing a fire hazard. [28] [29][30] The recall impacts specific Goodman-branded packaged units (including models starting with GPCM, GPHH, GPHM, GPCH) and evaporator coils. This affected units made in 2019 - 2024. The recall was expanded in early 2024.[27] [31][32][28] [33][34][35][36][37] [3] It was one of the largest and biggest failures ever within the HVAC industry, with over 300,000+ units affected by the hazard. The cause of the incident was a defect in the drain pans, causing the drain pans to become defective, overheat, melt and deform. [33][34][35] [32] As a result, Goodman expanded the recall, with over 31 reported fire incidents. [38][39]The recall affected units paired with non-condensing gas furnaces. The affected units that did not suffer a fire had a "Blower Guard Kit" or a "Drain Pan with Metal Reinforcement Kit."[40][36][37]
Lifespan
editThe Goodman CK/CKL had an average lifespan of 12 - 20 years, if proper maintenance is done every year. [12]As of 21 June 2026, reclaimed available Goodman CKL or CK units are available to be used, on websites that specialize in HVAC systems. As of 21 June 2026, R-22 has been banned, due to this refrigerant having a high GWP potential. This means if a household has a CK or CKL unit that has been installed or has no refrigerant (R-22), then the unit requires the R-22 freon refrigerant, which would be hard, since it would be expensive. The only source of R-22 refrigerant that are available are recycled or reclaimed R-22 refrigerant in packages, available for existing HVAC systems that use R-22 Freon refrigerant. The parts of each unit have a 5-year warranty, and additional care are available via Goodman's subsidiary Goodcare.
Phase out
editThe CKL ended production in early 2006 due to the banning of R-22 (a.k.a. Chlorodifluoromethane, or R-22 freon) refrigerant due to it having a high ozone depleting potential and the enaction of the mandatory 13 SEER rating for air conditioners. [7] In its 6-year lifespan , the CKL became standard in 2001 to replace the old CK series. [3] The CK line did offer a scroll compressor. The CKL ended production in January 2006 due to a 13 SEER mandate for residential air conditioners. Original CK/CKL conditioners can no longer be purchased due to a 13.8 SEER requirement for all residential HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) conditioners to be manufactured after 2005.[3] Little is known on this air-con and tidbit, outside of one confirmed example in the wild. [41]
Scrapping
editThis section needs expansion. You can help by adding missing information. (January 2026) |
Some people chose to scrap their Goodman/Janitrol CK/CKL units to get materials (e.g. Copper, brass, etc.) because they were not useful/outdated.
Legacy
editThe CKL served as a staple, high-volume, 10 SEER, R-22 product for Goodman between 1998 and early 2006. [3] It was known for utilizing, at the time, standard components like scroll compressors on certain models (specifically the 60k BTU models) and, later, featuring a design that complied with the 2001 Florida Building Code. [3] The CKL series was eventually replaced due to industry-wide shifts to higher energy efficiency standards (above 10 SEER/R-22). [3] The CKL set a new industry standard by introducing a louvered-cabinet design in the entry-level market. [3]
In 2001, the CKL replaced the CK in standard production. [3]
In 2006, the CKL was replaced by the all-new GSC13 and GSX13 models due to new strict 13 SEER regulations set by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to reduce energy bills. [3]

Notes
edit- ↑ The CKL was the first Goodman Air-con to be built with the louvered guard.
- ↑ The CK was the first to be built on the new "Cube" platform from Janitrol's air handler being shortened to a cube along with other modifications.
- ↑ As a result, the entire line of Goodman CKL's ended production so that Goodman could overhaul its line for the 13 SEER mandate.
- ↑ Otherwise, a refrigerant leak would happen, and soon, a refrigerant recharge is required. This would be hard since R-22 was banned.
