Yes you can but you will NOT get the 13 seer rating from the condenser..
Yes but you won`t get 14 SEER.
No,The differences are to great.You will end up with more problems than you want.10 seer condensor cant keep up with 13 seer evap.Suction pressure would be to much,and you never would acheive cooling temps.
10 SEER
I have been told that if you are going to replace a 10 seer with a 13 seer, you have to change the coil on the inside unit to work with a 13 seer heap pump. In order to gain the extra energy efficiency yes you would need to replace the air handler as well.
The tonnage is 3 ton, the seer is 10
Yes but you won`t get 14 SEER.
10 SEER is the rating for the Goodman CK24-1B.
A 5 ton 10 SEER condenser will do it, but you can no longer buy a 10 SEER condenser. Replacing the condenser and not matching it with the proper evaporator coil will nullify the SEER value stated on the new unit and your actual SEER and EER will be anyone`s guess so do not pay any attention to it. The coil is the least expensive component of the 3 and now would be the time to upgrade away from R 22 which is currently being phased out and will become very expensive in the near future. Something to consider if that 9 year old coil were to fail before the new condenser does or if you were to develop a troublesome leak. But if you are dead set against the coil replacement I suppose a 4.5 or 5 ton, depending on the climate where you live will work. Get the lowest SEER currently available (13) since it will mean nothing.

As of October 2023, 10 SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) condenser units are no longer manufactured due to updated energy efficiency regulations in the United States. The U.S. Department of Energy has set higher minimum efficiency standards, requiring new units to have a SEER rating of at least 14 in most regions. Consequently, most manufacturers have phased out 10 SEER units, focusing instead on higher-efficiency models.
This could actually help your 10 seer condensor run a little more efficiently but make sure you find out if your old air handlers evaporator coil used a cap tube or a expansion valve to meter freon,because if u are going from a cap tube to a expansion valve evaporator coil u will need to add a hard to start kit and time delay for the compressor,or u will wind up hurting your compressor. any service company should be able help u with this. Good luck!
It is no problem to find a compressor for your unit on E-bay and the like for substantial savings. Repairing the unit you have is not out of the question at all and can be done with large savings and long term good results. I personally have some out there that have lasted over 20 years and still running great! The oldest system I service is around 70 years old and still runs like a dream.
