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.
