  The Infinity® heat pump system with Greenspeed? intelligence is an incredible feat of engineering. First of all, it delivers up to 13 HSPF heating efficiency - that's 29-69% greater than the competition.* And while most manufacturers would be satisfied with unprecedented heating efficiency, Carrier knew to be truly breakthrough, the heat pump had to bring the heat as well. The Infinity 20 heat pump has up to 86% greater heating capacity than competitors.** So it can keep you cozy even when temperatures plummet into the teens. And in the summer, the system delivers up to 20.5 SEER cooling and supreme dehumidification that rivals most high-efficiency air conditioners. With 2 system options, all-electric or gas-electric, the Infinity® heat pump system with Greenspeed? intelligence provides a versatile answer for efficient, all-season, quiet comfort. ...

In the January/February edition of "DucTales" an article explains that in 2008, NADCA initiated an Energy Research Project to collect the data to quantify and confirm the amount of energy that can be saved through the professional cleaning of HVAC systems. Through this effort, researchers at Colorado University have confirmed substantial savings attributable to cleaning even lightly fouled systems. Heating and cooling systems are by far the biggest use of energy and our homes. Theses systems undergo daily use and ironically tend to be poorly maintained. These systems become heavy with dirt, dust, animal dander and more, thereby becoming unhealthy for occupants and both financially and environmentally inefficient. Researchers in collaboration with NADCA, the National Air Duct Cleaners Association, discovered that by cleaning even a lightly fouled system provides, on average, an 11% savings on energy used for heating and cooling. This proves that even in newer buildings, di...
