Carrier Performance Series
Carrier Performance Series — 2-Stage Comfort for Florida
The Carrier Performance Series sits between the budget Comfort Series and the top-tier Infinity. For most Treasure Coast homes, it's the sweet spot — 2-stage cooling that runs longer at low capacity (better humidity control) without the price tag of full variable-speed.

What 2-stage actually means for your house
A single-stage AC is on or off — 100% or 0%. A 2-stage runs at ~65% capacity most of the time and only ramps to 100% on the hottest hours. Longer, lower-capacity runtime is what pulls humidity out of the air. In Florida that's the comfort difference you actually feel.
Performance Series highlights
Built around the same Carrier scroll compressor and the same coil platform as Infinity — without the communicating electronics.
- 16–17 SEER2 efficiency
- 2-stage Copeland scroll compressor
- Compatible with most standard 24V thermostats (no proprietary lock-in)
- 10-year parts warranty (registered)
- Side-discharge cabinet for tighter installations
- Best paired with a matched Carrier FE4A or FV4C variable-speed air handler
When Performance is the right pick
If your home is 1,500–3,000 sq ft, single-story or two-story, and you're not adding zoning, Performance Series gives you 90% of the comfort of Infinity at meaningfully lower upfront cost. If you want zoning, IAQ integration, and the smoothest possible humidity control, step up to Infinity.

FAQ
Common Questions
What does a Carrier Performance Series cost installed?+
A 3-ton Performance Series full changeout typically runs $9,500–$13,500 on the Treasure Coast depending on ductwork condition and existing line set.
Performance vs Infinity — is the upgrade worth it?+
For most homes, Performance is the better value. Infinity makes sense when you want zoning, full variable-speed, Infinity Touch control, or a noticeably quieter outdoor unit.
Do I need a special thermostat for Performance Series?+
No — Performance works with any standard 24V 2-stage thermostat. Ecobee, Honeywell, and standard Carrier thermostats all work.
