I Live in humid miami florida and have a single story 2000 SQFEET home,
is
a
Carrier Infinity 18 system +Infinity control worth it?

The system uses a FE4 Fancoil + the Infinity 18 outside compressor +
Infinity Control


The installer is more important than the equipment. After doing some
reading
about the compressor you might consider Trane or American Standard. (same
parent company) they have an 19 seer compressor.

How long do you plan to stay in the home?

This site will allow you to do some what ifs.

I got a quote this spring for an new 14seer Trane with VFD air handler.
$5400.00 Since I am not planning on staying in this home for more than 5
years I did not change it.

I did put an VFD air handler in my last home. It was an 12 seer AS. The
VFD
air handler worked amazingly well in the humid conditions that I
experienced.


I plan on staying till I retire which is a long time 15+ years

The installer is a good one with a long history, its only a matter of
payoff.

You mentioned looking at the compressor, are there issues with the Carrier
system?

5400 for the trane, how many tons was it?
