About Goodman HVAC Systems
Harold Goodman started the company in Houston in 1975. The business model was straightforward: make decent residential HVAC equipment and sell it cheap enough that contractors could offer it as a budget option without embarrassing themselves. It worked. Goodman grew into one of the highest-volume HVAC manufacturers in North America. Daikin bought Goodman in 2012 for around $3.7 billion and kept the pricing strategy intact. The result is heat pumps, air conditioners, and furnaces that contractors install by the millions every year. The serial number format is one of the easier ones to read: month in positions 1-2, year in positions 3-4, both as two-digit numbers.
