50TCQ units for installation in the United States contain use of Carrier's Staged Air Volume (SAV™) 2-speed 
indoor fan control system. This complies with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) efficiency standard 
of 2018.
50TCQ units for installation outside the United States may or may not contain use of the SAV 2-speed indoor 
fan control system, as they are not required to comply with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) efficiency 
standard of 2018.
For specific details on operation of the Carrier SAV 2-speed indoor fan system, refer to the Variable Frequency
