Air Handler Repair

The air handler is an essential component of your HVAC system, responsible for circulating air throughout your home. Its primary function is to distribute both hot and cold air as needed, regulating the temperature and ensuring that you and your family are comfortable year-round. The air handler is installed indoors and is used in central HVAC systems such as air conditioners and heat pumps.

The air handler is made up of several components, including a blower, evaporator coil, and air filter. The blower is responsible for pushing air through the system, while the evaporator coil helps cool the air in the summer and warm it in the winter when working with a heat pump. The air filter is designed to trap dust, debris, and other pollutants that can be harmful to your health, helping to improve the indoor air quality of your home. Overall, the air handler plays a crucial role in keeping your HVAC system running efficiently and effectively.

Are you experiencing issues with your air handler? Don’t ignore them, as they can lead to bigger and more expensive problems down the line. As a homeowner, it’s important to be aware of common issues that can arise with air handlers so that you can take action and prevent potential disasters. Here are some common issues to look out for:

Clogged Filters

The air filter in your air handler needs to be replaced regularly to prevent dust, dirt, and other debris from clogging the system. If the filter becomes clogged, it can cause the air handler to work harder and reduce the overall efficiency of your HVAC system.

Frozen Coils

Frozen coils are a common issue with air handlers and can be caused by various factors, including low refrigerant levels, clogged filters, and dirty coils. If left unaddressed, frozen coils can lead to expensive repairs or even system failure.

Leaking or Dripping

If you notice water leaking or dripping from your air handler, it could be a sign of a problem with the condensate drain or pump. Over time, leaks can cause water damage to your home and lead to mold growth, making it essential to address the issue as soon as possible.

Strange Noises

Unusual noises like banging, grinding, or rattling can indicate issues with the blower motor or other components of your air handler. Ignoring these noises can lead to more significant problems down the road and decrease the lifespan of your HVAC system.
