Upgrade your home comfort with the Carrier Performance Central Air Conditioner. Designed to balance efficiency, comfort, and affordability, this system uses two-stage cooling to respond more closely to changing indoor conditions while supporting quieter operation and improved humidity control.
Enjoy reliable cooling designed to keep indoor temperatures comfortable throughout the warmer months.
Carrier air conditioners offer multiple efficiency levels to help support dependable comfort and reduced energy use.
Choose from single-stage, two-stage, or variable-speed operation depending on the selected Carrier system.
Pelican Heating & Air will help select the correct air conditioner size, indoor equipment, controls, and system configuration for your home.
The Carrier Performance Central Air Conditioner is designed for homeowners who want more comfort control than a standard single-stage system without moving to a premium variable-speed option.
The current Performance 18 model uses a two-stage compressor that can run at a lower output during normal cooling conditions and switch to full capacity when outdoor temperatures or indoor demand increase. This helps the system maintain steadier temperatures and remove more indoor humidity than a basic single-stage air conditioner.
InteliSense™ technology also supports connected system monitoring when paired with compatible controls, helping improve service visibility and diagnostics.
Pelican Heating & Air will evaluate your home, existing HVAC equipment, ductwork, cooling needs, and budget before recommending the appropriate system configuration.
