An air handler is the indoor unit of a split-system air conditioner or a heat pump. In essence, an air handler does what its title 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 contains the evaporator coil and the blower in your ventilation system, in conjunction with other components. When the weather is warm, the air handler circulates air through your home, which helps uphold correct comfort levels in your home. Some forms of air handlers even use heat strips to strengthen the heating power or your heat pump when the weather gets calmer.

A correctly maintained and operating air handler can help lower utility bills and a create an extended natural life for your split system or heat pump.
