Frequently Asked Questions

Air Handlers

An air handler typically looks like a large metal box or cabinet, usually rectangular, that contains the blower motor, evaporator coil, and air filter. It is connected to your ductwork and is often located in a basement, attic, garage, or utility closet, depending on the home’s layout.
Air handlers are typically located in attics, basements, utility closets, or garages, depending on the home’s layout and HVAC design.
Light surface cleaning can be done carefully, but deeper air handler coil cleaning is best handled by a professional.
An AHU, or air handling unit, is another term for an air handler. It is the indoor part of an HVAC system responsible for moving air through the ductwork and helping regulate temperature and airflow in the home.

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.

Prevent Future Breakdowns with Regular Maintenance

Just like your car needs regular oil changes, your HVAC system needs routine checkups to run its best. Our air handler maintenance services include:

  • Cleaning coils and blower components
  • Replacing or washing air filters
  • Checking electrical connections
  • Lubricating moving parts
  • Testing system performance

And with our Care Club, members receive scheduled maintenance visits, priority service, and discounts on repairs year-round. It’s peace of mind—and long-term savings—rolled into one simple plan.
