Carrier Infinity Air Purifier Installation
Before starting the Carrier Infinity air purifier installation process, have a look at it's working process.
The infinity air purifier treats the whole air stream through the state of art and three-stage process.
- At stage one, the particles are electrically charged by a precision point ionization array as they enter the air purifier.
- In the second stage, the charged particles are electrically attracted to the air purification cartridge which is located within the electric field.
- In stage three, captured particles are killed by an electrical current flow and ion bombardment.

Application Considerations
The Carrier Infinity air purifier is built for use in the return air duct of a forced-air heating, cooling and ventilation (HVAC) system.
Air conditioning units - If you install this air purifier in AC, then all the return air will be circulated. Infinity air purifier needs to be located upstream of both the furnace and air conditioning evaporator coil.
Humidifiers - An evaporative humidifier can mount upstream of the infinity air purifier. It's the best way to install atomizing humidifiers downstream of the air purifier because hard water salt deposits and water droplets may damage the air purifier.
If an atomizing humidifier needs to be mounted upstream of the infinity air purifier, it should be mounted as far upstream as possible. Moreover, standard disposable furnace filters should mount between the air purifier and the humidifier to trap hard water salt deposits as well as water droplets.
Make sure that the humidifier installation won't allow water or water droplets to enter the air purifier as it may cause damages.
Transitions - If the return air duct or furnace openings are not fit the infinity air purifier cabinet openings, Carrier recommends gradual transitions to reduce air turbulence and increase efficiency. Make sure not to use more than 45 degrees of expansion on each side of the transition fitting.
Turning Vanes -You should add turning vanes inside the duct if the air purifier is installed adjacent to a 90-degree duct elbow. This will improve air distribution across the face of the air purifier.
