Maybe you’ve been told about air handlers. Maybe you haven’t. Even if you are familiar with the concept of an air handler, you may not be sure if you could use one to advance your home comfort in Kearney. 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. Essentially, an air handler does what its label says: it handles air. It helps your split system or heat pump circulate cooled or warmed air through the ducts of your house. The air handler contains the evaporator coil and the blower in your ventilation system, in conjunction with other components. When the weather is burning, the air handler pushes air through your home, which helps maintain adequate comfort levels within your home. Some models of air handlers even contain heat strips to bolster the heating power or your heat pump when the weather gets colder.

A correctly maintained and operating air handler can help lessen utility bills and a provide a lengthier lifetime for your split system or heat pump.
