Maybe you’ve heard of air handlers. Maybe you haven’t. Even if you are aware of the idea of an air handler, you may not know if you could use one to improve your home comfort in Savage. We’re here to help you learn what an air handler is and if one would benefit you in your home.
An air handler is the indoor 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 circulate cooled or warmed air around the ducts of your house. The air handler utilizes the evaporator coil and the blower in your ventilation system, along with other mechanisms. When the weather is burning, the air handler circulates air through your home, which helps sustain proper comfort levels in your home. Some forms of air handlers even use heat strips to bolster the heating power or your heat pump when the weather gets colder.
A properly maintained and operating air handler can help lessen utility bills and a provide a longer life span for your split system or heat pump.
