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 know if you could use one to advance your home comfort in Norton. We’re here to help you understand what an air handler is and if one would benefit you in your home.

An air handler is the interior unit of a split-system air conditioner or a heat pump. Essentially, an air handler does what its title says: it handles air. It helps your split system or heat pump push cooled or warmed air through the ducts of your house. The air handler encompasses the evaporator coil and the blower in your ventilation system, together with other mechanisms. When the weather is warm, the air handler flows air through your home, which helps sustain adequate comfort levels in your home. Some models of air handlers even have heat strips to bolster the heating power or your heat pump when the weather gets calmer.

A properly maintained and operating air handler can help lower utility bills and a create a longer life span for your split system or heat pump.
