Maybe you’ve been told about 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 enhance your home comfort in York. 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 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 utilizes the evaporator coil and the blower in your ventilation system, along with other workings. When the weather is warm, the air handler pushes air through your home, which helps uphold proper comfort levels within your home. Some types of air handlers even use heat strips to bolster the heating power or your heat pump when the weather gets calmer.

A properly maintained and functioning air handler can help decrease utility bills and a provide an extended life span for your split system or heat pump.
