WHAT'S AN AIR HANDLER?

An air handler is a component of an HVAC system responsible for circulating and conditioning air within a building. It’s comprised of a blower, several heating or cooling elements, filters and dampers. The air handler works with your home’s thermostat and other HVAC components to regulate and maintain your indoor comfort.

 

An air handler takes in air, conditions it through heating or cooling, filters out impurities and then distributes the treated air throughout your ductwork

TYPES OF AIR HANDLERS

At Aire One Heating & Cooling, we carry the following types of air handlers:

 

  • Electronic air handlers require a heating element to heat your home. They assist an air conditioner or heat pump to circulate cool air through the air ducts.
     

  • Hydronic air handlers use hot water and gas to heat your home. 
     

  • Compact air handlers are efficient, reliable and great for small spaces, like condos. They can be fueled by electricity or gas and don't require an outdoor unit (air conditioner or heat pump) to cool your home.

 

Air handlers are a great way to increase the air flow within your home. They can assist your furnace and air conditioner by blowing the cool or warm air throughout your home.

HOW DO AIR HANDLERS WORK?

Air handlers are made up of two main components: a blower fan and an evaporator coil and/or a hydronic coil. Simply put, air handlers draw in warm or cool air from inside your space, pass it over the evaporator coils to cool or heat it and then blow the conditioned air back out into your home through the duct system.

BENEFITS OF AIR HANDLERS

If you're thinking about upgrading your HVAC system, you may want to consider getting an air handler for the following reasons:


ENHANCED INDOOR AIR QUALITY.
An air handler continuously moves conditioned air throughout your home. Because of this, your air filter is removing more particles thus improving your indoor air quality.


ENERGY EFFICIENT.
Variable-speed air handlers run continuously at low speed. This prevents your HVAC system from turning on and off unnecessarily and using excess power. Consequently, you can save money on your energy bills.


CONSISTENT COMFORT.
Air handlers help keep the air in your home at a stable temperature, resulting in fewer hot and cold spots. They also help remove excess humidity from the air.

5 SIGNS THAT IT'S TIME TO REPLACE
YOUR AIR HANDLER


Like any home appliance, your air handler will eventually need to be replaced due to old age and wear and tear. To avoid a breakdown, look for these five signs that it’s time to replace your unit.
 

  1. Age of the air handler. If your air handler is reaching the end of its expected lifespan, which is typically around 10 to 15 years, it may be time to consider a replacement. Older units may become less efficient and more prone to breakdowns, leading to increased maintenance costs.
     

  2. Frequent repairs. If you have to frequently repair the air handler due to malfunctions or breakdowns, investing in a new unit may be more cost-effective in the long run. Persistent issues can be a sign that the system is no longer reliable.
     

  3. Decreased efficiency. If you notice a decline in the system’s efficiency, such as uneven heating or cooling, increased energy bills or decreased airflow, it could indicate that the air handler is struggling to perform optimally. Upgrading to a more efficient model can improve performance and energy savings.
     

  4. Increased energy bills. A significant and unexplained increase in energy bills may indicate that your air handler is working harder than it should to maintain the desired temperature. Newer, more energy-efficient models can help reduce energy consumption and lower utility costs.
     

  5. Inadequate air quality. If you experience poor indoor air quality, such as persistent dust, mould or an increase in allergy symptoms, your air handler may not be effectively filtering and circulating air.

 
If you notice any of these signs,
call Aire One Heating & Cooling KW and schedule an inspection with one of our HVAC experts.
