Carrier Thermostats & Controls

Carrier offers a wide variety of thermostats to enhance your home’s comfort.

• Infinity® – Designed for Carrier’s Infinity® series of products, the Infinity control features advanced comfort management technology. Its energy management and remote access features are unparalleled. This communicating control is designed exclusively for our Infinity system products and is the brains behind our ultra-efficient Greenspeed™ intelligence systems.
• Performance™ – Our Performance series thermostats feature stylish, ultra-slim designs with easy-to-read screens and even easier-to-use interfaces. Available in programmable and non-programmable models, this line offers models to precisely adjust temperature and manage humidity, both of which are essential when creating a Hybrid Heat® system. These thermostats can be used with either Performance™ or Comfort™ series systems.
• Comfort Zone™ II – If you like flexibility and the customized comfort of zoning, there are a number of reasons to zone right in on this series. It allows you to program temperature and humidity levels in 7 independent day cycles, with options for 2, 4 or 8 zones. Enjoy all this from one powerful control—part of a zoning system that also includes room sensors and an equipment controller, as well as outdoor air and duct temperature sensors.
• Comfort™ – Comfort series thermostats are designed to give you flexible solutions that work on a multitude of systems. You can choose from models like our Wi-Fi® thermostat to give you remote access or others with easy Touch-N-Go® programming—there are even ultra-simple non-programmable models.

Benefits of Thermostat Replacement

Replacing your current thermostat with a new model has several advantages.

1. You can save 5-15% on your heating costs annually if you use a programmable thermostat to set the temperature back 10-15 degrees while you’re not home (around 8 hours a day).
2. You’ll have more control over your comfort level. You can program your thermostat to ramp up heating or cooling before you return home or wake up in the morning—while still saving energy during other times of the day.
3. You will get a better idea of the state of your HVAC system with an advanced model thermostat. Today’s innovative thermostats can tell you when it’s time to change the filter in your AC, get your furnace serviced, and more.
4. You’ll get a more precise temperature reading with a user-friendly display.

Choosing a New Thermostat

Digital thermostats are available in several styles, including:

• 5-1-1 – This style thermostat allows you to keep the same program Monday through Friday and program different settings for Saturday and Sunday.
• 5+2-day – If your schedule is typically consistent, this model allows you to program one schedule for Monday through Friday and another schedule for Saturday through Sunday.
• 7-day – The 7-day styleis the most flexible, allowing you to program each day of the week differently. If your family members are in and out of the house at different times every day, this type of thermostat is probably ideal for you.

Next, choose your options:

• Automatic changeover – Handy if you live in a climate where the days may be warm, but nights are significantly cooler.
• Backlit display – Whether or not you’re afraid of the dark, having the keypad and display light up is something you’ll appreciate.
• Filter change reminder – Never forget to change the furnace or A/C filter again (or tell someone else to!).
• Memory backup – Power outage? No problem. With a memory backup your thermostat settings will still be there when it comes back on.

If you’re interested in installing a programmable thermostat but don’t know which style will work best for your home, contact Ehlers! We are more than happy to walk you through the selection process.
