We’re here to help you recognize what an air handler is and if one would aid you in your home.

An air handler is the interior unit of a split-system air conditioner or a heat pump. Essentially, 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 mechanisms. When the weather is hot, the air handler circulates air through your home, which helps sustain proper comfort levels within your home. Some types of air handlers even use heat strips to strengthen the heating power or your heat pump when the weather gets colder.

A properly maintained and functioning air handler can help lower utility bills and a create a longer natural life for your split system or heat pump.
