Air Handler

An air handler is a component of a heating, ventilating and air conditioning system that circulates air directly or through connecting duct-work. Air handlers generally consist of a large box made from stainless steel or aluminum with a blower, heating or cooling elements, filters, sound attenuators and dampers.

Industry Information

Air Handler

Though they are sometimes used to blow air directly into a space, air handlers are usually connected to ductwork that carries the air throughout the building. These devices are also able to admit air; that is, they are able to suck it in and carry it away from the space. Air handlers are used in conjunction with furnaces as well as air conditioning systems; one set of ducts and air handlers are used to deliver both warm and cool air. When used in a split air conditioning system, the air handler is the indoor unit that circulates the conditioned air. Virtually every building requires heating or cooling. Both furnaces and air conditioners are widely used and therefore air handlers are prevalent as well. Factories, industrial plants, commercial buildings, business offices, laboratories, residential buildings, hospitals, schools and other facilities all require heat and frequently have air conditioning as well for convenience and comfort level. In large buildings, outdoor air handlers may be placed on the rooftop. For smaller buildings and residences, they are usually indoors.

Air handlers are used with large-scale heating and cooling systems. Industrial systems, central air, split systems and other arrangements use air handlers to transport the air while portable, spot cooling or window air conditioners blow directly into the space. Ductless air conditioners may or may not use an additional air handler, depending on the needs of the facility and the placement of the main unit. Small air handlers are called terminal units or blower coils. They consist of an air filter, coil and blower. Another variation is a makeup air unit which only uses air from outside. It does not recirculate the air but conditions 100% outside air, unlike most air conditioners that remove heat from the inside air to create the feeling of a cooler environment. A chemical called a refrigerant inside the air conditioner cycles through the coils inside the unit that may be located indoors, outdoors or split between the two. The chemical is put under pressure by a compressor inside the main unit and is changed from a relatively cool gas into a hot gas. As it runs through the coils, the heat dissipates and the gas becomes a liquid. This liquid is forced through the small opening of the expansion valve, which causes the liquid to evaporate into a cold gas. The gas again travels through the coils but now absorbs heat from the air, producing a cooling effect when the air handler circulates the air back into the space.
