ABOUT CARRIER PRODUCTS
1. Efficiency
Efficiency ratings are like gas mileage - the higher the rating, the more efficient the product. All products are given the following ratings, so you'll know exactly what to expect from your investment.
AFUE
(Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) This measurement gauges heating fuel usage. The Infinity™ 96 gas furnace receives up to 96.6% AFUE.
HSPF
(Heating Seasonal Performance Factor) This measurement gauges the heating mode of heat pumps. Most new units have ratings from 7.0 to 9.4. The Infinity™ 19 heat pump receives up to 9.5 HSPF.
SEER
(Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) This measurement gauges air conditioning cooling. All new models are required to have at least a 13.0 SEER rating. The Infinity™ 21 air conditioner receives up to 21.0 SEER.
ENERGY STAR®
Carrier Corporation has determined that certain products meet ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency. Look for this logo on our Infinity™ and Performance™ Series products.
2. Refrigerant
Freon® - 22 Refrigerant
Since its debut in 1930, Freon refrigerant has been used in cooling systems. And while it's still available, the Clean Air Act of 1990 prohibits the production of Freon-22-based air conditioners and heat pumps by 2010, and Freon-22 production by 2020. As Freon-22 production declines, its cost is predicted to rise. (Freon is a registered trademark of E.I. DuPont de Nemours & Company.)
Puron® Refrigerant
Carrier was the first to introduce a new, non-ozone-depleting refrigerant called Puron - a full six years ahead of the competition — paving the way for the future. Puron refrigerant is chlorine-free, so it doesn't damage the Earth's ozone layer. And, as other refrigerants become less available, Puron refrigerant will be the refrigerant of choice for years to come.
3. Comfort
Carrier specializes in creating a customized home comfort system with our broad selection of heating and cooling products. Your Carrier dealer can help you choose the best system for your home including Carrier-exclusive features that further enhance your indoor environment.
ComfortHeat™ Technology
ComfortHeat Technology accurately predicts the need for heating while cutting temperature swings in half, and provides a nearly continuous flow of warmth in low-capacity operation for a steadier, more consistent indoor temperature.
Infinity™ System
When a heat pump or air conditioner is combined with a variable speed furnace or fan coil, the revolutionary Infinity System is the only system in the industry that allows you to control temperature, humidity air quality, fan speed and ventilation. It even detects when your air filter needs replacing. It's so advanced it automatically adjusts to your systems' needs for peak efficiency and performance. It's the ultimate control center for all of your home system components.
IdealHumidity™ Systems
IdealHumidity Systems automatically add or remove just the right amount of moisture to keep your home comfortable. IdealHumidity Systems can help you save on energy costs, too. When the humidity is right, you can feel comfortable at higher temperatures in the summer and lower temperatures in the winter.
4. Sound
Home comfort shouldn't come at your ears' expense. That's why quiet is built right into every system. Carrier furnaces feature the QuieTech™ noise reduction system that provides comfortable heat while generating very little noise in the process.
Carrier air conditioners are also quiet, thanks to the exclusive Silencer™ System that ensures extra-quiet performance by maximizing airflow while minimizing vibration. With sound ratings as low as 66 decibels (dB), some Carrier systems make less noise than a refrigerator.
5. Hybrid Heat™ Systems
With both a heat pump and a furnace, Carrier's Hybrid Heat System will keep you comfortable throughout every season. The heat pump is designed to work like an air conditioner during the warmer months, transferring heat
from inside your home and sending it outside. As the seasons change, the heat pump reverses this process by extracting heat from outdoor air and moving it into your home. By combining an electric heat pump and a gas furnace, our Hybrid Heat System delivers big comfort while using less energy. Ask Scott Ruch, Inc. if a Hybrid Heat system is right for you.
