How To Reset A Carrier Infinity Thermostat (Quickly & Easily!)

Click the Thermostat menu. Here, you’ll see four options: Program Schedule, User Settings, Install Settings, and Last 10 Events. We’ll discuss what resetting each parameter will do in detail below. Assuming you want to reset everything, select “Yes” on all four options and then press “Save.” Doing so will reset all of the configurations set by yourself and the technician who initially installed the system.

While it’s recommended that you reset the User Settings and Program Scheduling, it isn’t recommended that you reset the Install Settings or the Last 10 Events. Doing so may cause your air conditioning unit or furnace to stay off. If you do happen to reset the latter two options, call the technician who originally installed the system.

Note: Whether you’re working with a Trane thermostat, Honeywell, or Nest, always refer to the owner’s manual. Hang on to the documentation – it can save you a headache!

The times at which your A/C or furnace runs depend on the “Comfort Profiles” you set in your Infinity thermostat. Comfort Profiles are preferences for humidity, fresh air, temperature, and fan speed.

The Comfort Profiles icon looks like a thermostat with “home,” “away,” and “sleep” to the left of it. It should be located next to Schedules, Vacation, and Reminders. Select the icon once you find it.

A menu will appear with three options:

Let’s say you want to configure the temperature and fan speed for when you and your family members are home on a typical weekday. In this case, you want to select the Home profile under the “temperature and fan profiles” option in the Comfort Profiles menu.

When you select the Home icon, you’ll see three options: “Fan,” “Heat To,” and “Cool To.” Select any of these options, and two “Up” and “Down” arrows appear.

For instance, during heating season, you can tell your thermostat to heat your home to 70° Fahrenheit. In addition, you can instruct the thermostat to cool your home to 72°F during the summer.

There is an option to adjust the fan speed, but it’s recommended you leave that set to “Auto.” Changing the fan’s settings could compromise your heating and air conditioning system’s energy efficiency and performance. “Auto” means the system will only use the fan when it needs to heat or cool. It won’t run when the furnace or A/C unit isn’t turned on.

Once you set up your Home profile, you can repeat the same process for Away, Sleep, and Wake. For example, you may not want your home at 70 degrees when you’re away. To save energy, you could specify to heat the house to 64°F from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. – a typical workday.

After that’s completed, you can specify the times at which you’re home, away, sleeping, and waking up.

Click on the “view or edit schedule” option. This brings you to a screen with three rows. The first row displays the time at which a specific comfort profile is triggered. The second row denotes the comfort profile itself (Wake, Sleep, Away, or Home). The final row shows the “Heat To” and “Cool To” temperatures you specified earlier.

Each row contains five columns, allowing you to create settings for multiple comfort profiles on a single day. On the top right-hand corner of the screen, you’ll be able to select the day for which the aforementioned settings apply.

For example, let’s say you want to specify when you wake up on Monday.

How Can I Set The Humidity Under Comfort Profiles?

Before trying to set humidity levels, make sure that you have a humidifier installed on your HVAC system. Either look at the scope of work covered during the original installation, or take a look at where the system’s installed. You should see a box on the supply side of the system with a ¼” copper water line running to it.To set the humidity for a specific comfort profile, go back to the main menu and select the Comfort Profiles icon. Then choose “humidity and fresh air profiles.”You’ll see a screen displaying the four standard comfort profiles. By default, you should see “when at home” as the first option. When you click that button, you’ll see four settings:

Select “Heating humidity.” This enables you to turn your humidifier on or off during heating mode. Once you activate it, you can use the “Up” and “Down” arrows to set the desired humidity level between five and 45 percent.

You can repeat this process to specify the humidity level when your system enters cooling mode. However, the thermostat tells the equipment to dehumidify. The dehumidification level you specify can be anywhere from 46 to 58 percent.

Once you’ve entered the settings you desire, press “Save” to finish. Check this out if your thermostat changes by itself.

Setting the fresh air control for comfort profiles requires your system to have a ventilator. The technician who installed your HVAC system may have referred to this as an “ERV” or “Energy Recovery Ventilator.”

To specify the fresh air control, stay on the “humidity and fresh air profile” option under the “Comfort Profiles” menu. Touch “Heating fresh air” to begin.

You’ll see three options:

You’ll be able to select the same options when choosing the “Cooling fresh air” option.

Again, before you set the fresh air control or humidity levels, make sure your system has the capability to satisfy the demands you specify. Carrier’s documentation notes that the fresh air option may not be available with the ERVXXNVA ventilator due to the machine’s control design. If you have any questions about your system’s capabilities, call a technician.
