Air Handlers

Frequently Asked Questions

An air handler is the indoor part of your HVAC system that moves air through your home. It works with your AC or heat pump to circulate conditioned air via your ductwork. If your airflow feels weak or uneven, it may be time to have your air handler inspected. At Done Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric, we repair and replace air handlers across Aurora and the Greater Denver Metro to keep your system running smoothly.

AHU stands for air handling unit—just another term for an air handler. It includes components like the blower motor, evaporator coils, and filters that help deliver clean, temperature-controlled air throughout your home. If your AHU isn’t keeping up, our HVAC experts at Done! can help with fast diagnostics and reliable repairs.

Cleaning evaporator coils inside an air handler requires care to avoid damaging the unit. It’s best to shut off power, remove the access panel, and gently remove debris with a soft brush or approved coil cleaner. However, DIY cleaning can miss deeper issues. Done! offers professional air handler maintenance to fully clean coils, restore airflow, and protect your system’s efficiency.

Air handlers are typically found in attics, basements, utility closets, or garages—anywhere with space and access to ductwork. If you’re unsure where yours is or need help reaching it, Done technicians can locate it for you, inspect its condition, and ensure everything is working safely and efficiently.

An air handler looks like a metal box or cabinet, often rectangular, and contains the blower motor, coils, and air filter. It connects to your HVAC system and ductwork to move air through your home. Whether yours is older or tucked away, Done! is here to repair or replace it, bringing comfort back to every room.

Stay Comfortable Year-Round with Professional Air Handler Services

When it comes to keeping your home comfortable, the air handler does more than most people realize. This essential HVAC component is responsible for circulating warm or cool air throughout your entire house—making it a key player in your comfort, indoor air quality, and energy efficiency. At Done Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric, we specialize in diagnosing, repairing, replacing, and maintaining air handlers for homeowners across Aurora and the Greater Denver Metro. Whether your system is struggling to push air or it’s just not keeping up with demand, our expert technicians are here to help—fast.

What Is an Air Handler, and Why Does It Matter?

Your air handler sits indoors and works in tandem with your AC or heat pump system. It houses important parts like:

  • The blower motor that pushes air through your ducts
  • The evaporator coil that cools or heats the air
  • The air filter that keeps your indoor air clean

If any of these parts fail or wear down, you’ll likely notice hot or cold spots in your home, reduced airflow, or rising energy bills. That’s why staying on top of air handler maintenance and repairs is so important—especially in Colorado, where the seasons can swing from blizzard to heatwave in a matter of weeks.

Local Technicians You Can Trust

Since 1999, Done has been the go-to name for heating and cooling repairs in Aurora, Centennial, Parker, and across the Denver Metro. Our technicians aren’t just licensed and highly trained—they’re also local. That means we know how Colorado weather affects your HVAC system, and we tailor our solutions accordingly. From split-level homes in 80015 to larger properties near Southlands in 80016, we’ve seen—and fixed—it all.

We show up when we say we will, walk you through your options clearly, and always aim to get it done right the first time.

Signs Your Air Handler Needs Service

If your air handler isn’t working like it should, it won’t take long to feel the difference. Common warning signs include:

  • Weak or inconsistent airflow from your vents
  • Hot or cold rooms even when the system is running
  • A spike in your energy bill without increased usage
  • Musty smells or excess dust in your home
  • Loud rattling or buzzing noises from the indoor unit

These are all signs that something inside your air handler—like the blower motor or capacitor—may be struggling. Don’t wait for a full breakdown. Done’s HVAC pros can quickly diagnose and resolve the issue before it becomes an expensive emergency.

Repair, Replace, or Upgrade? We’ve Got You Covered.

Sometimes, a simple fix like replacing a capacitor or cleaning the coils can bring your air handler back to life. Other times—especially with older units—it may be smarter to replace the entire air handler, especially if it’s causing high energy usage or struggling to keep up with Colorado’s extreme seasons.

At Done, we don’t push what you don’t need. Instead, we:

  • Explain the problem in plain English
  • Offer multiple solutions to fit your budget
  • Use high-quality parts backed by manufacturer warranties
  • Offer financing options on new HVAC systems

Whether you need a quick repair or a full system upgrade, we’ll help you make the right call for your home and your wallet.

  • Cleaning coils and blower components
  • Replacing or washing air filters
  • Checking electrical connections
