Refering to the simple fan mode of auto, low, med or high, without setting the programable fan. I thought that when the fan was manually set to anything but auto, it would stay at that setting...

User manual doesn't tell me anything to address this issue. Installing contractor has proven to be completely unreliable.

Could it be part of the tstat control overiding the fan setting to...

Have the evolution system. Have recently noticed that the tstat keeps reverting back to auto shortly after switching the fan to continuous run. Haven't watched close enough to know when it reverts...

After many posts and questions as to why my Carrier 3 stage is only showing Low and High on the TSTat, it appears I indeed have a 2 Stage unit installed.

While tech was here I looked at the model...

FWIW, I also have had the Bryant 2 stage HP installed (286 ANA). I am bothered by the high pitched drone noise, mostly on low speed.

for the specific information!

for the beat down. based upon your help, if the installer advises it is correct as is, I guess I'm out of luck. I'm not asking you to fix the thing nor to give do it yourself help. I'm asking for...

Plain spoken, thanks for the follow up detail. Mine was the first 3 stage for the installer, and I'm nolonger confident that they are overly familiar, so please bear with me...
From your reply,...

Have had new Bryant evolution HP system running for several weeks. Overall, very pleased. But, when in HP mode there is a low audible "hum" noise throughout the house. It is just as bad on the...

Thats the stuff I was looking for.! BWAHAHAHA

I have been reading some of the great diagnostic info that can be seen on the Evolution control, ie: static pressure, run times, etc,
I would also like to verify the software version.

I can't seem to get any decent pics. Just as info, the install is in a wide open basement area with a walk out sliding door. I could understand some damage if it had to squeeze thru an attic hatch...

Hi,

I'm about to install new bryant evolution system. Trying to decide whether to "upgrade" to the Elec Air Cleaner, model EACAAXBB020. Price seems reasonable, but I keep getting conflicting...

Any way to tweek the system to meet Fed Rebate standards? I'm trying the ARI website, but can't seem to find the right match. As configuered, it comes in at 11.3 EER.

J, Thanks for info.

How does the AprilAire 2200 compare to just the base 4" media filter? If I decide to stick with the base media cabinet, can I easily upgrade to either the perfect air or...

Finalizing new system. Have quote for:

Ok, Bryant seems to be the winner!

New track to the post.... Is there any benefit to the carrier brand? Are the grade of parts identicle? Any reason to spend the extra $$$$ for the Carrier...

Getting close to making a selection. Have 2 contractors that I like.

I have met several contractors that seem to be honest and knowledgable, however, I am getting recommendations all over the map.

I'm thick in the head. Help me understand what the lower output means within the context of a hybrid system. If the HP is unable to meet the temp requested by the TStat, can/will the furnace fire...

I'm pretty much sold on the hybrid. Now its just which one and how efficient. How much do I need to be concerned with the Trane HP keeping me warm enough? If cost was close, which would be better...

Ok, I need some knoweledgable help.

Comfortdoc, thanks for the suggestion. Haven't had a contractor recommend Rheem yet. The modulating furnace sounds interesting. Can this be paired with a heat pump as well? Would I want to? Thx

So what is the practical impact of the lower output per Ton mean? Will HP be unable to achieve the desired temp setting? Would the gas furnace supplement, or only when outside temp drops to certain...

Considering system replacement. Would like some thoughts regarding different options.
