Maybe you’ve been told about air handlers. Maybe you haven’t. Even if you are aware of the concept of an air handler, you may not be sure if you could use one to improve your home comfort in Crystal and Twin Cities. 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 internal unit of a split-system air conditioner or a heat pump. In essence, an air handler does what its title says: it handles air. It helps your split system or heat pump circulate cooled or warmed air around the ducts of your house. The air handler contains the evaporator coil and the blower in your ventilation system, together with other mechanisms. When the weather is warm, the air handler pushes air through your home, which helps maintain proper comfort levels in your home. Some types of air handlers even have heat strips to bolster the heating power or your heat pump when the weather gets chillier.
A properly maintained and functioning air handler can help lower utility bills and a provide an extended lifetime for your split system or heat pump.
