What is the most efficient settings for Heat and Cooling. I now have it set on auto Heat & cooling. 55 % humidity. Cooling set 2 degrees above Heating. I realize a lot of this is personal choice but there are settings to constantly stay on low air flow, auto off, etc.

I know you pros and homeowners have found out thru experience what seems best to achieve max efficiency.

I'm new to Heat Pumps. Replaced Hot water baseboard and seperate A/C.

system off is the most efficient setting

The installer can set the system run with a more airflow, which is more efficient, but will disable the humidity control and reduce the amount of humidity removal. Fan off between cycles is the best for efficiency as well. Also, programming the thermostat with a setback when you're not home is best for efficiency.

There is so little literature available about the infinity control for the home owner.

That's alright, there's quite a bit of it which is undocumented to the dealers as well. Even the local distributor didn't have the Sequence of Operations for the control. I ended up learning quite a bit about how the system works by examining how the parts 1-step below the Infinity stuff works (ie: FV4 fan-coil + Thermidistat + 25HPA). From what I've seen, they took what they did there & built upon it. Shoot off an e-mail to to me (in my profile) and I'll send you some stuff.

I will be getting the infinity control next week. Do you mind sharing any info w/ me as well? I will send you an email.
