APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS

The Infinity Air Purifier is designed for use in the return air duct of
a forced air heating, cooling, and ventilation system. Models

GAPAAXCC1625

and

GAPAAXCC2025

are specifically

designed for use in systems with a forced air gas furnace.

Air Conditioning

The Infinity Air Purifier should be installed in a system so that all

the return air is circulated through the air purifier. It should be
located upstream of both the furnace and the air conditioning

evaporator coil. This will help keep the furnace and evaporator coil
clean and prevent condensation from forming within the Infinity

Air Purifier.

Humidifiers

An evaporative humidifier can be mounted upstream of the Infinity
Air Purifier. It is best to install atomizing humidifiers downstream

of the air purifier because hard water salt deposits and water
droplets may damage air purifier. If an atomizing humidifier must

be mounted upstream of the Infinity Air Purifier, it should be

mounted as far upstream as possible (at least 6 ft./1.8 m
recommended), and a standard disposable furnace filter should be

mounted between the humidifier and the air purifier to trap hard
water salt deposits and water droplets.
Ensure that the humidifier installation will not allow water or water
droplets to enter the air purifier because it may cause electrical

arcing or damage the air purifier.
NOTE: For fan coil installations, do not install the humidifier in
the fan coil access doors or cabinet.
Inspect for plugged drains and maintain humidifier drain lines on a

regular basis to avoid overflow of water into the air purifier. The
recommended inspection should be done at every change of the air

purifier cartridge (minimum, annually).

HIGH VOLTAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury

or death.
This air purifier utilizes high voltage. If you notice water

running into or around the air purifier, water stains on the

purifier cartridge or on the Enhancement Module walls or

cabinet, shut off the air purifier and call your service provider.

WARNING

Transitions

If the return air duct or furnace openings do not fit the Infinity Air

Purifier cabinet openings, gradual transitions are recommended to
reduce air turbulence and maximize efficiency. No more than 45_

(about 8.5 in. per running ft.) of expansion should be used on each
side of the transition fitting.

Turning Vanes

If the Infinity Air Purifier is installed adjacent to a 90_ duct elbow,

turning vanes should be added inside duct to improve air
distribution across the face of the air purifier.

Electrical Power

The Infinity Air Purifier should only be powered when airflow is
present. The furnace control EAC terminals provide power only

when the furnace blower is operating. Infinity Air Purifier models
GAPAAXCC1625 and GAPAAXCC2025 are designed to be

powered from the electronic air cleaner (EAC) terminals on a

furnace electronic control. If EAC terminals are not available, an
alternative airflow sensing mechanism must be used to ensure the

Infinity Air Purifier is only powered when airflow is present.
Contact local Carrier distributor for information on approved

alternatives.
