Innovation and the
Environment
Over 100 years ago, a humble but
determined engineer solved one of
mankind’s most elusive challenges by
controlling the indoor environment. A
leading engineer of his
day, Dr. Willis Carrier would
file more than 80 patents
over the course of his
career. His genius would
enable incredible advancements in
health care, manufacturing processes,
food preservation, art and historical
conservation, indoor comfort and
much more.
Carrier’s foresight changed the world
forever and paved the way for over a
century of once-impossible innovations.
Yet in addition to being an accomplished
inventor, he was also an avid outdoors-
man. Carrier recognized the power and
beauty of the natural environment. This
appreciation of our world and its
resources continues to guide Carrier
Corporation today. We will never rest on
our accomplishments, but instead
consistently look for ways to improve our
products, our environment and our world.
The Infinity
®
17 air conditioner
substantiates our commitment to your
comfort, delivering environmentally
sound, energy-efficient cooling in
coastal areas.
Standard systems can mindlessly blast cooled air at one
speed before shutting off, which can lead to widely
fluctuating temperatures. The Infinity
®
17 air conditioner
with two-stage scroll compressor, when properly matched
with a Carrier
®
compatible indoor unit, runs on low-stage
up to 80% of the time to maintain consistent comfort. Two-
stage operation also contributes to reduced energy usage,
helping achieve up to 17.0 SEER cooling efficiency.
Extra-Consistent Comfort
Carrier led the industry by incorporating non-ozone-
depleting Puron
®
refrigerant into air conditioners back in
1996. Millions of Puron refrigerant units in operation today
are a testament to the reliability, durability and enduring
quality of these products.
Environmentally Sound Refrigerant
By combining the intuitive Infinity
®
control with the Infinity
control board in the air conditioner itself, Carrier puts
enhanced comfort at your fingertips. When installed as
part of a complete Infinity system, you control temperature
schedules, heating, cooling, humidification,
dehumidification, fan speeds and more, all from one
easy-to-use control on the wall in your home. This system
monitors air conditioner functions, makes adjustments to
maximize performance and provides maintenance
reminders on the Infinity control.
Enhanced Comfort and Peace of Mind
The Infinity
®
17 air conditioner quietly cools your home
with sound levels as low as 66 dBA. Our exclusive
Silencer System II™ technology features a silencer top,
integrated fan motor, forward-swept fan blades,
compressor vibration isolator plate, sound hood and
split-post compressor grommets to help deliver quiet
operation by maximizing airflow and minimizing vibration.

17 Air Conditioner Coil
with ArmorPlate™ Coating
Standard
Air Conditioner Coil

Testing by Carrier
®
engineers has
shown the Infinity 17 air conditioner’s
coil to last longer than a standard coil
in harsh coastal conditions.
ArmorPlate™ coil coating protects the outdoor coil fin
from harsh salt air. A specially formulated epoxy is
permanently bonded to the coil surfaces preventing
the destructive galvanic corrosion that is common in
coastal areas.
Uncompromising Quality

You don’t lead an industry for more
than 100 years by accident. Carrier
has maintained its position and
reputation through diligent,
uncompromising quality control at
every stage of a product’s life – from
concept to completion. Proven to last
longer than standard air conditioner
coils, Infinity
®
17 air conditioner coils
with ArmorPlate™ coating are the
perfect choice for homeowners living
in coastal areas. Once our product is
installed at your home, you can be
confident that durable construction
and built-in reliability features ensure
your comfort for years to come.
• Dual paint coverage: Coverage on
all exposed sheet metal delivers
additional protection against
harsh coastal conditions. The
Carrier
®
dual paint system applies
a special protective coating on both
the front and back of the metal
cabinet to shield it from rust, both
inside and out.
• Built-in reliability: Forward-swept
fan blades enhance performance
and maximize sound reduction.
Smart electronics that monitor
system operation and a
compressor-protecting filter drier
help keep critical components
operating at their best.
• Durability: WeatherArmor Ultra™
protection shields the outdoor
unit from hail, errant soccer balls,
lawn equipment and other hazards.
Our combination of a galvanized
steel cabinet, louvered coil guard
and baked-on powder paint
provides superior rust protection.
** Per standard testing as described by ARI 270-95 in cooling mode.
