Carrier Infinity® System
— When
the Infinity 96 variable-speed gas
furnace is matched with the Infinity
Control and an air conditioner or heat
pump, you will experience the ulitmate
in ComfortHeat and Ideal Humidity
through unparalleled control of
temperature, humidity, indoor air
quality, and zoning. The Carrier Infinity
System also provides unprecedented
ease of use through on-screen, text-
based service reminders and equipment
malfunction alerts.
For even greater comfort and
convenience, match the Infinity 96
furnance with an Infinity air
conditioner or heat pump. This will
create a fully communicating system,
requiring only 4 thermostat wires
between system components, and
troubleshooting can even be done from
the outdoor unit without entering the
home.
Optional remote access through
telephone or Internet is also available
when combined with a remote
connectivity kit.
Infinity 96 FEATURES/
BENEFITS
ComfortHeat
— On the coldest days
of the year, the Infinity 96 Furnace has
the capacity to heat your home. On
moderate days when less heat is
required, this furnace will regulate
itself to a lower capacity —
providing a comfortable home and
minimizing operating costs.
The patented algoritum adjusts the
low-heat operating time to match the
indoor conditions.
IdealHumidty
— The IdealHumidity
system actively controls both
temperature and humidity in your home
to provide the best comfort all year
long. Other systems depend on heating
or cooling to manage the moisture in the
air. But, IdealHumidity gives you the
right amount of humidity day and night,
even in mild weather.
No other
manufacturer can do this!
IdealHumidity saves energy, too. By
keeping humidity under control, you
can set your thermostat to stay
comfortable and save energy—
up to
20% off your cooling costs!
Media Filter Cabinet
— Enhanced
indoor air quality in your home is made
easier with our media filter cabinet—a
standard accessory on all deluxe
furnaces. When installed as a part of
your system, this cabinet allows for
easy and convenient addition of a
Carrier high-efficiency air filter.
Insulated Blower Compartment
—
The acoustical insulation reduces air
and motor noise for quiet operation.
Certifications
— The Infinity 96,
Model 58MVP units are A.G.A. and
C.G.A. design certified for use with
natural and propane gases. The furnace
is factory-shipped for use with natural
gas. An C.S.A. (A.G.A. and C.G.A.)
listed gas conversion kit is required to
convert furnace for use with propane
gas. The efficiency is GAMA
efficiency rating certified. The Infinity
96 meets California Air Quality
Management District emission
requirements.
Quality Registration
— The Infinity
96 is engineered and manufactured
under an ISO 9001 registered quality
system.
Venting
— The combustion-air and
vent pipes can terminate through a side
wall or through the roof when used
with a factory-authorized vent
termination kit.
Blower Access Panel Switch
—
Automatically shuts off 115-v power
to furnace whenever blower access
panel is opened.
Reliable Heat Exchanger Design
—
The primary heat exchanger is made of
aluminized steel for corrosion resistance.
The patented Serpentuff
TM
condensing
heat exchanger cells are laminated
with polypropylene for greater
resistance to corrosion and epoxy
coated externally to prevent oxidation.
This break-through in heating
technology helps extend the life of the
furnace for years of dependable
performance. The heat exchanger is
positioned in the furnace to extract
additional heat.
Warranty
— The Infinity 96 heat
exchangers come with a Limited
Warranty for lifetime of original
owner in single family residence;
20 years in other residential and
commercial applications. Five-year
limited warranty on entire unit.
Contact your dealer for details.
Electronic Variable-Speed Motors
—ECM
Motors (Electronically
Commutated Motor) provide variable-
speed operation to optimize comfort
levels in the home year round. They
are also more economical to operate
than standard motors.
Comfort Heat Control Center
—
The microprocessor control center
features state-of-the-art combustion,
temperature, and airflow control to
maximize comfort while operating at
peak efficiency.
Combustion control is obtained by
taking the appropriate inducer motor
RPM readings when the low- and high-
fire pressure switches are made. Using
this information, the microprocessor
maintains a consistent air-to-fuel ratio
independent of vent sizing and
conditions.
The first cycle after power reset
provides 16 minutes of low heat
before switching to high heat unless
the room thermostat has been satisfied.
Subsequent thermostat cycles provide
anywhere from 0 to 16 minutes of low
heat depending on the length of the
previous thermostat cycle.
Airflow control is accomplished by
using a technique involving the
microprocessor and blower motor. The
static load on the air delivery system is
measured each heating cycle. The
microprocessor then uses this
information to deliver correct airflow
independent of variations in system
restrictions. (For example, dirty filter or
zone damper changes during a cycle.)
A special dehumidification function
allows direct input from a thermidistat
or humidistat. This input adjusts
system airflow for greater humidity
removal and increased cooling comfort
during summer months.
Insulation
— Foil-faced insulation in
heat exchanger section of the casing
minimizes heat loss.
Direct Vent Sealed Combustion
System
— Infinity 96 uses 100 percent
outdoor air, which results in especially
quiet operation. Direct venting
minimizes the possibility of using
contaminated air and also reduces air
infiltration draftiness in the home.
Monoport Burners
— The burners
are finely tuned for smooth, quiet
combustion and economical operation.
Bottom Closure
— Factory-installed
for side return; easily removable for
bottom return.
ComfortFan™
— Improves comfort
all year long by allowing you to select
the continuous fan speed right at the
thermostat.
SmartEvap™
— Allows your system
to reduce summertime humidity levels
by nearly 10% over standard systems.
