Air Handler Repair in Itasca, IL

Air Handler Installation, Maintenance & Repair Services in Itasca, IL Expert Air Handler Services from Midwest Heating and Cooling

Air handlers are crucial in both ducted and ductless heating and cooling systems. If you have a heat pump, it heats or cools the air, which the air handler circulates throughout your home using fans, either through ductwork or directly into your living space in ductless systems. This efficient setup can help you save significantly on utility costs, as heat pumps are known to be up to 50 percent more efficient than traditional electric resistance heating units like furnaces and baseboard heaters, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.

Midwest Heating and Cooling provides a full range of air handler services, including whole-house humidifier services, in Itasca, IL. This ensures your system operates efficiently and enhances your home’s indoor air quality and comfort.

How Does an Air Handler Operate?

An air handler is designed to keep the air moving within your home, featuring several key components:

  • Blowers: These fan-like components circulate air through the ducts.
  • Evaporator Coils: Typically made of copper, these coils circulate liquid refrigerant to move heat and humidity.
  • Sound Attenuators: These are installed to reduce airflow noise through the ducts.
  • Air Filters: Filters improve indoor air quality by trapping dust and allergens, and they help keep your HVAC system clean.

During operation, the heat pump generates warm or cool air, which is then moved by the air handler’s blowers. This ensures your home reaches and maintains the desired temperature, boosting your comfort and enhancing your home’s air quality by preventing mold growth and filtering out irritants.

Do I Need an Air Handler for My HVAC System?

An air handler is essential if you use a heat pump or a ductless system in Itasca, IL. However, it is unnecessary for systems like furnaces or radiant heat setups like boilers. Including whole-house humidifier services in Itasca, IL, can further improve the functionality and comfort provided by these systems.

What Is a Dual-Fuel System?

A dual-fuel system combines a furnace and a heat pump, offering a versatile and energy-efficient solution for home heating. This system allows you to use the heat pump for milder temperatures and switch to the furnace when it gets extremely cold, optimizing comfort and reducing energy costs.

I called Midwest to come out and fix my thirty year old furnace. Leo and Mark were both thorough and honest in their evaluation of my old unit and in the end decided it was in my best interest to have them install both a new furnace and AC instead of fixing the old one. Their pricing was extremely fair and the work top notch. I will definitely recommend their company to anyone who asks.

Jeff replaced two parts in the furnace, and informed me that the filters I was using were restricting the airflow too much.
