For even greater comfort and convenience, match the Infinity
t
ICS furnace with an Infinity air conditioner or heat pump. This will
create a fully communicating system, requiring only 4 thermostat
wires between system components. In some cases, 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.

ICS FEATURES / BENEFITS
IdealHumidity
t
—The IdealHumidity system actively controls
both temperature and humidity in the 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
t
gives the
homeowner 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, the
homeowner can set their thermostat to stay comfortable and save
energy—up to 20% off their cooling costs!
IdealComfort
t
—On the coldest days of the year, the Infinity
t
ICS Furnace has the capacity to heat the 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 algorithm and the VariPhase
t
gas valve adjusts the
low heat operating time to match the indoor conditions.
Reliable Heat Exchanger Design
—The primary heat exchanger is
made of aluminized steel for corrosion resistance. The patented
Serpentuff
t
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. Stainless steel 409 coupling box
componentry between heat exchangers has exceptional corrosion
resistance in natural gas and propane applications.
Power Heat
t
Igniter
—Carrier’s unique SiN igniter is not only
physically robust but it is also electrically robust. It is capable of
running at line voltage and does not require complex voltage
regulators as do other brands. This unique feature further enhances
the reliability of Infinity
t
ICS gas furnace and continues Carrier’s
tradition of technology leadership and innovation in providing a
reliable and durable product.
ComfortFan
t
—Improves comfort all year long by allowing
selection of the continuous fan speed right at the thermostat.
SmartEvap
t
—Allows the system to reduce summertime
humidity levels by nearly 10% over standard systems.
Media Filter Cabinet
—Enhanced indoor air quality in the home
is made easier with our media filter cabinet—a standard accessory
on all deluxe furnaces. When installed as a part of the system, this
cabinet allows for easy and convenient addition of a Carrier high
efficiency air filter.
IdealComfort
t
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 inducer motor RPM
reading when the medium--heat pressure switch makes. Using this
information, the microprocessor maintains a consistent air--to--fuel
ratio independent of vent sizing and conditions during all phases of
heat.
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 or medium heat depending on the length of
the previous thermostat cycle.
Airflow control is accomplished by the microprocessor and blower
motor. The ECM blower motor is configured by the
microprocessor to react to changes in the static load on the air
delivery system. The ECM blower 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.
Warranty
—The Infinity
t
ICS 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 furnace.
Direct Venting or Optional Ventilated Combustion Air
—The
Infinity
t
ICS can be installed as a 2--pipe (Direct Vent) furnace or
as an optional ventilated combustion air application. This provides
added flexibility to meet diverse installation needs.
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.
Sealed
Combustion
System
—Infinity
t
ICS
brings
in
combustion air from outside the furnace, which results in especially
quiet operation.
Insulation
—Foil--faced insulation in heat exchanger section of the
casing minimizes heat loss.
Insulated Blower Compartment
—The acoustical insulation
reduces air and motor noise for quiet operation.
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.
Blower Access Panel Switch
—Automatically shuts off 115--v
power to furnace whenever blower access panel is opened.
Quality Registration
—The Infinity
t
ICS is engineered and
manufactured under an ISO 9001 registered quality system.
Certifications
—The Infinity
t
ICS, Model 58MVC units are
CSA. (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. A C.S.A. listed gas conversion kit is required to convert
furnace for use with propane gas. The efficiency is GAMA
efficiency rating certified. The Infinity
t
ICS meets California Air
Quality Management District emission requirements.
