We’re here to help you understand what an air handler is and if one would benefit you in your home.
An air handler is the interior unit of a split-system air conditioner or a heat pump. Basically, an air handler does what its label says: it handles air. It helps your split system or heat pump push cooled or warmed air around the ducts of your house. The air handler utilizes the evaporator coil and the blower in your ventilation system, together with other components. When the weather is hot, the air handler flows air through your home, which helps uphold correct comfort levels within your home. Some types of air handlers even use heat strips to bolster the heating power or your heat pump when the weather gets calmer.
A well-maintained and working air handler can help lower utility bills and a deliver a lengthier life span for your split system or heat pump.
