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 be sure if you could use one to improve your home comfort in Kearney. 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 interior unit of a split-system air conditioner or a heat pump. In essence, an air handler does what its name 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 encompasses the evaporator coil and the blower in your ventilation system, in conjunction with other mechanisms. When the weather is burning, the air handler flows air through your home, which helps maintain adequate 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 correctly maintained and functioning air handler can help lessen utility bills and a deliver a longer natural life for your split system or heat pump.
