[RFI] HVAC RFI

[Nick-VE3EY]

Resurrecting the old thread as I am faced with the same dillema

Carrier Infinity offers several different models,   59MN7C (top of the 
line) and then 59TN7A, 59TN6 and 58TN0B being a two stage.

There is also another set of models falling under "Performance Series"

Does anyone know if all these models have the RFI filtering included ?  
  EG  Quiet RFI as described below.

Except for the big compressor, the drive electronics are integrated into the motor housings, eliminating many likely RFI radiators. There’s a HUGE board full of L, C, and ferrite chokes at the power inlet to the compressor. I have to hand it to Carrier, they did a thorough job. I have to walk right up to the equipment with my DFing antenna to detect anything. If there was a problem, I noted that there is room inside all enclosures for additional custom filter components. Photos available.

Same for the Mitsubishi mini split at my remote station, where it sits right under all the antennas. This is all good news… I’m beginning to think that the major manufacturers are doing the right thing.
