  1. No incident, no one hurt

    Made Jan 20, 2025, sent to the company Feb 6, 2025, published by CPSC Feb 21, 2025

    The product, in the report: carrier heater serial number 3120A58617 model 59SU5A080E21

    Carrier heater model number 59su5a080e21 serial number 3120a58617 was installed in my new home, which I closed on Dec 30, 2020 and the burner has gone out already? the technicaian said it was burning too hot and fast? that sounds like a fire hazard and he “did a work around remedy they always do” - this sounds like an ongoing defective issue and possible fire hazard. is anyone going to look into this before someone does have a fire and a lawsuit is filed???? additionally the trap continuously fills with water and doesn’t properly drain causing it to shut off continuously as well. I have had issues with my heater starting in the winter of 2021 and every year since. I finally bought an electric fireplace to warm my house and space heaters becasue the constant service calls are expensive

    The product, in the report: Carrier Corporation Carrier Infinity Greenspeed 4 ton unit Model 25VNA048A0030040

    I have a 3 year old Greenspeed Infinity system model #25VNA0 that completely stopped working on August 6 due to an inverter board failure. After two authorized Carrier service technician visits, the heat pump unit was diagnosed with a failed inverter board, after initially showing a code 95 on the unit. A code 95 indicates that there is high current above 257 volts ac being detected within the board.

    This same inverter board has been subject to a consumer product safety recall (https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls/2017/carrier-and-bryant-recall-heat-pumps) of which absolutely no notice was formally sent to us that our unit posed a fire safety hazard. The recall states the following hazard exists “The capacitors in the fuse boards in the heat pumps can stop working causing the unit to overheat, posing a fire hazard.”

    Our service technician is having difficulty sourcing a new inverter board and contacts to Carrier directly have placed blame on distributors and not Carrier corporate for the issues in trying to source a known recall replacement product.
