I just came across that I was not able to get the heat strips to turn on. After talking to the our supplier technician he said I needed to down load the app to match the airhandler to heat strips. Which I still have to and try to set it up.i tell you this new technology is something else. We're on small town new technology is new to us old timers lol.

I installed one of these Goodman furnaces with Bluetooth last year in my home. The App was fairly easy to use to program the furnace. I haven’t had any issues with the furnace or condensing unit so far. I also installed a whole house surge suppressor to help protect the sensitive electronics. Power surges and lightning strikes have killed my TV and the blower motor in my old furnace.

You also have to have the Bluetooth shared data loader in order to operate the app and for the inverter systems We had a board go out on the outdoor heat pump and the Bluetooth shared data loader also had to be installed to the board in order for it to be found on the cool cloud app. Major hassle just to adjust the system to connect and allow the system to operate

The thing that drives me crazy about air handlers is how they crowd everything together. Moving the transformers to the let side would provide more space for troubleshooting. Engineers should have to occasionally work on some of these units.

I just bought a new home and yesterday the A/C came by and had no idea what he was doing. The next day a senior tech came by and after a long time he tells me he has never seen one of these Bluetooth handlers and it took him some time to use the app. Once he got it figured out he was shocked how easy it was to make setting changes using his cel phone.

I had a big go around with distributors selling bundles that were no longer compatible based on software changes. There are models that worked together when they first came out, yet no longer work together later on. D2 mis matched set. They have an app to check that. But not all distributers have the latest information. If you 5 wire them, you lose the higher seer. (Though the customer still paid for it.)

Good ol’ Goodman!! They keep over engineering these units, all you need is a compressor, a metering device, evaporator and condenser coil, with a few relays In between! Like those trane TAM7’s absolute junk…oh and I forgot a thermostat “switch” to turn the system on. K.I.S.S. Have these manufacturers ever hear that phrase, probably not, just keep adding more things to break to your unit, so you have to buy O.E.M. parts from them, total scam…sorry but that the truth!

I got an AVPTC37B14BB unit on GSZC360161CA condenser. Did you know different revisions (the letters on the end) can work or not work with each other differently over the same model number depending on the software versions? I am curious what condenser model number this was. Also, if you noticed, there is an "Active" section at the top (errors you have now), vs the "History" below (errors that have happened prior to now but haven't been cleared out yet). So the power went off, and it assumed it was a fuse blown. When in fact, people just shut it off outside. It's only so smart. By the way, my models do not work together and I'm waiting on a new air handler to come tomorrow. It would seem the 37B14 cabinet no longer has any compatible condensers I could purchase for it. However, the 360161CA had a C14 cabinet that would work. So I have to change out the air handler. Not fun. Goodman tech said that all contractors are required to use their app for system compatibility before they purchase to be covered properly. AHRI is 3rd party and affords you nothing. I can't remember the name of the app "sales something" but it's much like the CoolCloud app I guess. I would call Goodman/Daikan and get the name of it if you do many of these installs.

That open fuse was a glitch in the system always says that. They have 2 fuses on that board. I always do the 14 min update. You can also adjust your airflow by changing the condenser tonnage. Why would they put that ah wired legacy matched with a single stage condenser is beyond me.

That looked like a communicating air handler with a non-communicating Honeywell thermostat. My furnace is wired the same way. I don’t want to use a proprietary communication protocol with an overpriced thermostat. The only small benefit is that you can run some diagnostics on your whole HVAC system because the Goodman thermostat can communicate with the furnace and outside condensing unit (if you wire it up correctly).
