Gas Furnaces
Heating and air conditioning systems are the biggest users of energy in the home, up to 75% of the utility bill. A new high efficiency furnace can save up to 50% in operating costs over a ten year old furnace. Many 1990 and earlier model furnaces have efficiencies of 65% or less. The minimum efficiency furnace that can be sold in the United States today is 78%. Furnaces are available that are up to 97% efficient fully modulating.
Communicating technology in a fully modulating furnace for the ultimate comfort and greater efficiency Advanced ComfortLink II communications technology allows the Trane XC95m to configure itself for optimal performance year after year. Add the Telephone Access Module (TAM) to get alerts sent to your phone, and even adjust your settings remotely, whenever you like. With its fully modulating capability, you can achieve up to a 95% AFUE (annual fuel utilization efficiency).
Air Conditioners
Air conditioners may look similar, but check the SEER ratings. Higher SEER numbers save more money. A 13 SEER rated air conditioner uses 23% less energy then a 10 SEER unit. 13 SEER will be the minimum efficiency standard by 2006.
Fan Coils
The fan coil is the indoor component of a heat pump system. It includes the fan and the heating/cooling coil. The fan coil is designed for a particular refrigerant, so it must match with the heat pump. A variable speed fan coil can improve comfort with improved humidity control and warmer heating temperatures, and save energy in cooling.
Duct Free Split Systems
Carrier duct-free split systems deliver the unmatched comfort of a traditional split system to specific individual spaces in your home. Whether you're creating a quiet, comfort-controlled home theater room, or simply want to heat or cool an area in your home without ducts, the wide variety of Carrier duct-free split systems give you the efficiency, aesthetics and comfort of a traditional central split system.
Air Cleaners
Today's homeowners are realizing that keeping a home comfortable is about more than just temperature control. The quality of the air you breathe is too important an issue to ignore! Learn how to control the humidity in your home, and how to keep your indoor air clean and fresh.
Humidifiers
Fan-Powered Humidifiers are independent units with their own fans that add moisture directly into your ducts, while Bypass Humidifiers work in tandem with your furnace system to deliver enhanced moisture throughout your home. Both options are quiet, energy efficient ways to make your home more comfortable, and reduce static electricity. Honeywell TrueSTEAM™ Humidification Systems
TrueSTEAM takes the best features from current steam humidifiers with their efficiency, performance and decreased water consumption, and combines it with the ease of installation, reliability and value of flow-through humidifiers. TrueSTEAM is different from others because it operates independent of equipment operation. And, with its near 1:1 humidification delivery rate, TrueSTEAM delivers the right amount of humidification for your home.
Controls & thermostats
With our wide variety of highly engineered thermostats, wire or wireless thermostat. Precise control over temperature, humidity, air treatment and scheduling. It's the advanced heating and cooling innovation.
Geothermal Heat Pumps
Innovative Carrier geothermal heat pumps tap into the earth's surface, using the energy and relatively consistent heat found in the earth, a pond, or well water instead of using outside air like traditional heat pumps. Geothermal heat pumps provide both cooling and heating to your home and are able to maintain the highest efficiency on even the coldest winter nights or the hottest summer days.
Tankless Water Heaters
heat water directly without the use of a storage tank. Therefore, they avoid the standby heat losses associated with storage water heaters. When a hot water tap is turned on, cold water travels through a pipe into the unit. In an electric Tankless Water Heater an electric element heats the water. In a gas-fired Tankless Water Heater a gas burner heats the water. As a result, Tankless Water Heaters deliver a constant supply of hot water. You don't need to wait for a storage tank to fill up with enough hot water. Typically, Tankless Water Heaters provide hot water at a rate of 2 – 5 gallons (7.6 – 15.2 liters) per minute. Typically, gas-fired Tankless Water Heaters will produce higher flow rates than electric Tankless Water Heaters. Some smaller Tankless Water Heaters, however, cannot supply enough hot water for simultaneous, multiple uses in large households. For example, taking a shower and running the dishwasher at the same time can stretch a Tankless Water Heater to its limit. To overcome this problem, you can install a “whole house” type Tankless Water Heater or install two or more Tankless Water Heaters, connected in parallel for simultaneous demands of hot water. You can also install separate Tankless Water Heaters for appliances—such as a clothes washer or dishwater—that use a lot of hot water in your home.
Energy Efficient Ventilation
Today’s homes are built tight for energy efficiency, but this
can often lead to stale indoor air. The average person spends 90% of his or her time indoors, breathing in that stale air. Honeywell’s Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV) reinvigorates your home with healthy fresh air while helping you maintain energy efficiency and save money.
UV lamps - 2 Bulb Ultraviolet Air Treatment
Using innovative technology, Honeywell UV Lights are installed into your existing duct work, zapping mold spores and certain live, airborne bacteria passing by the lamp to prevent them from being re-circulated into your home's air. UV shortwave lights are easy to add to your existing comfort system, and long-life lamps are easy to replace when needed.
