An air handler is the indoor unit of a split-system air conditioner or a heat pump. Essentially, an air handler does what its name says: it handles air. It helps your split system or heat pump flow cooled or warmed air around the ducts of your house. The air handler contains the evaporator coil and the blower in your ventilation system, along with other mechanisms. When the weather is warm, the air handler circulates air through your home, which helps uphold correct comfort levels in your home. Some types 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 functioning air handler can help lower utility bills and a create a lengthier life span for your split system or heat pump.
