How Does an Air Handler Work?

The air handler is the “brain” of your HVAC system. It’s responsible for circulating air throughout your home or business and maintaining a comfortable indoor temperature, but how does it work?

First, the air handler pulls in outside air and passes it through a filter to remove pollen, dust, and other pollutants. Next, a set of coils either heats or cools the air, depending on your settings. Finally, the treated air moves through your ductwork and into your living space.

Why Is My AC Not Working Properly in Greater Area?

Your air handler unit includes many crucial parts that work together to circulate air throughout your home or business. When one of these components malfunctions, your entire system can break down. Let’s go over some common reasons why you might need air handler services:

Clogged air filters: We recommend getting regular AC filter replacements every three to six months, depending on the type of air filter you have.

Dirty cooling coils: When dust and dirt build-up on coils, air cannot pass through, lowering your unit’s energy efficiency.

Worn-out fan belts: If your unit makes odd noises or has trouble starting up, it may be time to replace the fan belts.

Burned-out blower motor: A faulty blower motor can dampen air flow and lead to higher energy bills.

If you suspect a problem with your air handler, call us. We are available for after-hour service calls to inspect your unit and offer prompt solutions.
