Carrier i-Vu Controls Installation, Programming & Service

We install, program, and service Carrier i-Vu systems and the TruVu and Open controllers behind them, and bring Carrier Comfort Network sites forward to BACnet when the owner is ready.

Carrier equipment is common across Louisiana, and i-Vu is Carrier's building automation system for it, available as on-premises i-Vu Pro, hosted i-Vu Cloud, or the compact i-Vu Express. Under it sit Carrier's BACnet controllers: TruVu programmable controllers and touchscreen displays, application controllers such as the RTU Open and the fan coil and water-source heat pump Open controllers, VVT and VAV zoning, and ChillerVu for chiller plants. Many existing Carrier buildings still run the Carrier Comfort Network (CCN), with equipment controls such as ComfortLink and PremierLink, and i-Vu supports both CCN and BACnet, so those sites can modernize without ripping everything out. Vertex installs and programs i-Vu systems, adds new Carrier equipment to existing ones, services CCN sites, and moves them to BACnet in phases.

WHAT WE DO ON CARRIER

New i-Vu installs

i-Vu front ends and Carrier controllers engineered, installed, wired, and programmed for new construction, additions, and equipment replacements.

Programming and graphics

Controller programming, schedules, trends, alarms, and graphics in i-Vu, built to a documented standard.

New Carrier equipment on the network

New Carrier rooftop units, chillers, and air handlers brought onto the building network and into the front end alongside existing equipment.

CCN service and upgrades

Troubleshooting on Carrier Comfort Network systems, and phased moves from CCN to BACnet under i-Vu or an open Niagara front end.

TYPICAL PROJECTS

i-Vu for new construction

An i-Vu front end and TruVu and Open controllers installed and programmed for a new building or addition.

CCN to BACnet migrations

Legacy CCN networks brought under i-Vu and moved to BACnet in phases, with the building kept running.

Rooftop unit and VVT retrofits

Carrier rooftop units on RTU Open controllers and VVT zoning, brought under networked control with schedules, trends, and alarms.

Mixed-vendor integration

Carrier systems tied into a Niagara or BACnet front end with other manufacturers' equipment.

FAQ

Carrier questions we hear

Do you install new Carrier controls or only service existing ones?
Both. We install and program new i-Vu systems, add new Carrier equipment to existing ones, and service and upgrade Carrier Comfort Network sites.
Which version of i-Vu do we need?
i-Vu Pro runs on your own server, i-Vu Cloud is hosted, and i-Vu Express is a compact on-site device. We recommend one based on the building's size, your IT policies, and how you want to reach the system.
What is the Carrier Comfort Network (CCN)?
Carrier's earlier communication network for its equipment and controls. Many buildings still run on it, and i-Vu supports both CCN and BACnet, so CCN sites can be brought forward in phases.
Can Carrier controls work with other brands?
Yes. Current Carrier controls communicate over BACnet, so Carrier equipment can be integrated into a Niagara 4 or other BACnet front end alongside equipment from other manufacturers.
Do you work on Carrier systems outside Louisiana?
Yes. We are on-site across Louisiana, travel nationwide for Carrier installation and commissioning work, and support systems remotely in all 50 states over secure VPN.
