Maybe you’ve been informed 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 Arlington. We’re here to help you understand what an air handler is and if one would aid you in your home.

An air handler is the indoor unit of a split-system air conditioner or a heat pump. In essence, 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, along with other workings. When the weather is burning, the air handler circulates air through your home, which helps sustain correct comfort levels in your home. Some types of air handlers even contain heat strips to bolster the heating power or your heat pump when the weather gets chillier.

A well-maintained and operating air handler can help lessen utility bills and a create a lengthier life span for your split system or heat pump.
