Comfort Heatt TECHNOLOGY,
THE ULTIMATE IN HEATING
COMFORT...
The Carrier Performancet 96 with Comfort Heatt technology
achieves the optimum combination of comfort and efficiency.
The Performancet 96 achieves up to 95 percent Annual Fuel
Utilization Efficiency (AFUE). Efficient performance is enhanced
through the variable- -speed design. To maintain ideal comfort,
Comfort Heat technology automatically adjusts the heating level,
maximizing the use of low heating levels that produce near silent
furnace operation while meeting the exact heating needs. This
unit is designed to keep the indoor temperature within 1 degree of
the thermostat set point. Because it operates in low heat most of
the time, the Performance 96 uses up to 80% less power than
single- -capacity furnaces.

Product Data
In addition to providing ultimate comfort, the Performance 96 has
a sealed combustion system. This system brings combustion air to
the furnace and vents flue gases outside the furnace in a safe
manner. Because it is sealed, operational noise is minimal. A
sealed combustion system also means fewer cold drafts and less
air infiltration.
The Performance 96 is available in 5 heat/airflow combinations.
The unit has an upflow only design. The Performance 96 can be
installed as a Direct vent/2- -pipe only. The Performance 96 is not
approved for installation in mobile homes, recreational vehicles,
or outdoor use.
The variable speed makes the Performance 96 ideal for use with
split- -system cooling, including 2- -stage units. A Carrier
electronic air cleaner, humidifier, Thermidistatt, comfort
ventilator, and Comfort Zonet II will provide year- -round
comfort and efficiency.
Designed for durability, comfort, and reliability, the Performance
96 is the ultimate in versatile, efficient comfort.
IdealHumidity Technology
The IdealHumidity system actively controls both temperature and
humidity in your home to provide the best comfort all year long.
Other systems depend on heating or cooling to manage the
A05097
moisture in the air. But IdealHumidity gives you the right amount
of humidity, day and night, even in mild weather. No other
manufacturer can do this! IdealHumidity saves energy, too. By
keeping humidity under control, you can set your thermostat to
stay comfortable and save energy—up to 20% off your cooling
costs!
Comfort Heat Technology
On the coldest days of the year, the Performance 96 Furnace has
the capacity to heat your home. On moderate days when less heat
is required, this furnace will regulate itself to a lower
capacity—providing a comfortable home and minimizing
operating costs.
The patented algorithm adjusts the low- -heat operating time to
match the indoor conditions.
Reliable Heat Exchanger Design
The primary heat exchanger is made of aluminized steel for
corrosion resistance. The patented Serpentufft condensing heat
exchanger cells are laminated with polypropylene for greater
resistance to corrosion and epoxy coated externally to prevent
oxidation. This breakthrough in heating technology helps extend
the life of the furnace for years of dependable performance. The
heat exchanger is positioned in the furnace to extract additional
heat.
