AAA batteries are the most common type of battery used for many thermostats and can last anywhere from six months to a year, depending on how often the thermostat is used.<\/p>\n<p>To determine when your batteries need to be replaced, keep an eye on the battery icon that will appear once the batteries have been installed. Check the owner&#8217;s manual of your specific Carrier thermostat model to see if it requires batteries or not and what type of batteries it needs.<\/p>\n<p>To keep your thermostat working in good condition, it is <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/batterytools.net\/reviews\/\" title=\"best\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">best<\/a> to replace the batteries regularly with the same or recommended type of battery. Choose high-quality and proven <a href=\"https:\/\/batterytools.net\/duracell-vs-panasonic-batteries-which-one-is-better\/\">batteries such as Panasonic<\/a> and Energizer when purchasing to ensure they will last longer. Be aware of identical counterfeit ones that are obviously sold at very low prices.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"\">Why is my Carrier Infinity thermostat blank?<\/h2>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">There are a few potential reasons why your Carrier Infinity thermostat might be blank. Here are the most common explanations:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If a battery powers your thermostat, the battery may have died, causing a blank screen on your thermostat. If this is the case, you need to replace the battery. But sometimes, a simple restart of your thermostat can help resolve a blank screen.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If a hardwired connection powers your thermostat, you may have lost power to this part of your home. Check your circuit breaker panel for any tripped breakers or blown fuses and reset them if necessary.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Another possibility is a problem with the wiring, in which case you&#8217;ll need to call a technician to fix it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In rare cases, the thermostat is not properly paired with the HVAC system, so you&#8217;ll need to follow the instructions in the <a href=\"#thermostat-manual\">thermostat manual<\/a> to pair it properly.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">If none of these solutions work, you may need to contact your thermostat&#8217;s manufacturer for more support.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Keeping your thermostat in good working order is integral to home maintenance. For thermostats powered by batteries, ensure that you replace the batteries regularly\u2014ideally every six months. If they start to get weak, replace them as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Also, reduce the number of times you adjust the temperature. Every time you change the temperature, your thermostat has to use more energy to recalculate what it needs to do to maintain your desired temperature. Lastly, conserve energy and extend the battery life of your thermostat by properly insulating your home. Otherwise, you&#8217;ll likely use more energy to maintain a comfortable temperature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Career Infinity is a digital thermostat that controls the temperature of a building and has an integrated humidity sensor.
