Cooling Capacity and Efficiency
The AQ-GLXS4BA4210 offers 3.5 tons of cooling capacity, making it ideal for medium homes ranging from approximately 1,800 to 2,200 square feet, depending on climate and insulation quality. This system is intentionally matched with slightly larger coils in some configurations to maintain performance and energy efficiency.
With a SEER2 rating of up to 14.3, this unit aligns with national energy efficiency standards for 2023 and beyond. SEER2 (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio 2) reflects improved testing protocols and real-world HVAC conditions. Every additional SEER2 point can reduce cooling energy use by 5–7%, translating to noticeable monthly savings.

Durability and Weather Resistance
Durability is a hallmark of the AQ-GLXS4BA4210. Its cabinet is built from galvanized steel and finished with a baked-on paint coating to resist corrosion and damage from weather exposure. The unit has been salt-spray tested for up to 500 hours, making it a strong contender for coastal installations. It also meets the 2010 Florida Building Code requirements for wind-load resistance when properly anchored—providing extra confidence for homeowners in hurricane-prone areas.
The factory-installed filter drier enhances system reliability by capturing moisture and preventing internal corrosion, prolonging the lifespan of the condenser and connected components.
Installation and Maintenance
This condenser is designed with simplified installation and service in mind. It comes pre-charged for up to 15 feet of line set, reducing time and complexity during the setup process. Sweat-style service valves and easy-access gauge ports allow for a faster and cleaner install. Technicians will appreciate the top and side access panels, which allow for easier diagnostics, maintenance, and part replacements over time—leading to reduced labor costs and downtime.
Quiet and Comfortable Operation
As with all ACiQ products, the AQ-GLXS4BA4210 is built with your home’s comfort in mind. This unit features enhanced sound-dampening components that ensure low operational noise, making it ideal for suburban homes or properties where quiet performance is preferred. The condenser delivers consistent airflow and balanced cooling, helping maintain stable indoor temperatures even during peak heat.
Refrigerant Safety and Compliance
The AQ-GLXS4BA4210 uses R-32 refrigerant, a more efficient and environmentally responsible option than older refrigerants like R-410A. R-32 has a lower global warming potential and better heat transfer properties, making it both cleaner and more effective. Because R-32 is classified as an A2L refrigerant, it does require a leak detection system to be installed as part of your indoor unit. You must pair this condenser with an R-32-compatible air handler or evaporator coil that includes this safety feature.
Failure to follow these pairing and safety requirements may pose hazards and will void the manufacturer's warranty. For full safety compliance and system integrity, installation should always be performed by a licensed HVAC technician.
Warranty Protection
ACiQ offers a 10-year limited parts warranty on this model, giving homeowners peace of mind and long-term protection. The warranty requires online registration through the manufacturer and installation in accordance with all state and local codes. Following these steps ensures full coverage and optimal system performance.
