Are you looking for a high-efficiency furnace that is affordable and can deliver great results? Let me introduce you to the Carrier 59TN6, also known as the Carrier Infinity 96 gas furnace. In this video we’ll go over its features, explore the cost, and see who might benefit most from this furnace.
Hi I’m Luke from Fire & Ice. Year after year we meet with thousands of Central Ohio homeowners to help determine their best heating and cooling solution. When our customers ask us about any straightforward high efficiency furnaces that deliver, the solution often is the Carrier Infinity 96. In this video we’ll go over its features, the efficiency rating, who will benefit the most from this furnace, and its cost. By the end of this video, you’ll know if the Carrier Infinity 96 is right for you and your home.
What are the features of the Carrier Infinity 96?
Let’s take a look at the features and benefits the Carrier Infinity 96 has to offer. For starters is its two-stage gas valve which means it has two capacities. When the thermostat calls for heat, it starts in its first stage using between 60 and 70 percent of its total capacity. This stage gives you better energy efficiency, better temperature control, and increased comfort. When more heat is needed, the furnace advances to its second stage, using 100% of its capacity. The primary benefit of this technology is that it uses only as much fuel as it needs too. It also allows for more even temperatures and better control over your indoor comfort at a lower initial cost compared to more expensive modulating furnaces.
The next feature of note is its variable speed blower. It is a lot like cruise control in your car as the blower motor will ramp up and down its speed to maintain the airflow needed in your house. The most noticeable benefit of a variable speed blower is you’re going to feel more comfortable with more even temperatures. You’re also going to notice quieter operation due to its insulated cabinet, and a reduction in your energy costs.
What is the Efficiency Rating for the Carrier Infinity 96?
Furnace efficiency is rated by an Annualized Fuel Utilization Efficiency rating or AFUE. The Carrier Infinity 96 is considered a high efficiency furnace with an AFUE rating of up to 96%. Which means it uses 96% of the natural gas fuel toward heating your home. The other 4% is exhausted as waste. When you think of it in terms of money, 96 cents for every dollar spent on fuel is going towards heating your home.
Who is Carrier Infinity 96 a good fit for?
The Carrier Infinity 96 furnace is ideal for homeowners that have indoor comfort concerns such as uneven temperatures or hot and cold spots and are looking to save some money on their energy bills. But it might not be for you if you don’t have the need for a higher-end furnace, or you’ll be moving soon.
How much does Carrier Infinity 96 cost?
Now let’s get down to the numbers. How much does it cost? To have the Carrier Infinity 80 installed in your home, expect to pay between $5,500 and $6,700. This range includes everything including the cost of equipment, labor, and any permits. The range in price is based on a number of factors such as: the size of your home, the furnace’s capacity, filters or other indoor air quality products, and the location of the system. For comparison, a new furnace replacement can range between $3,000 and $7,600 making the Carrier Infinity 96 a great mid-range option.
