Air Handler Installation Technical Guide for Mountains Edge
Air Handler Selection and Placement
The air handler must be matched to your outdoor unit for optimal efficiency and warranty coverage. We verify AHRI-certified matching combinations and size the air handler based on your system's CFM requirements. Placement matters too — attic installations (common in Las Vegas) require adequate access for maintenance, proper condensate drainage with a secondary drain pan and float switch, and insulated supply and return plenums to prevent energy loss in the 140°F+ summer attic environment.
Installation Quality Details
- Coil orientation — Air handlers can be installed in upflow, downflow, or horizontal configurations. The correct orientation depends on your home's layout and affects condensate drainage, coil performance, and filter access.
- Static pressure design — We calculate the total external static pressure the air handler must overcome (duct friction, fittings, coil, and filter) and select a blower speed that delivers the correct CFM without excessive noise or energy waste.
- Heat strip sizing — If your system includes electric heat strips for backup or primary heating, we size them to match the home's heating load and verify the electrical circuit can handle the amperage draw safely.
- Vibration isolation — We install vibration pads or isolation hangers to minimize noise transmission through the structure, especially important for attic and closet installations near bedrooms.
Mountains Edge Neighborhood HVAC Equipment Profile
From an equipment perspective, Mountains Edge's 2004 to 2012 construction means our technicians encounter a wide range of air handlers, split systems, packaged units, and thermostats across different neighborhood sections.
- Mountains Edge master plan (central) (2004-2008 primary development phase) — Standard split systems with basic programmable thermostats. Uniform builder specs across most of the community.

Where We Serve in Mountain's Edge
We serve Mountain's Edge neighborhoods including Aspire, Cascade at Mountain's Edge, Quintessa, Sierra Madre, Vivaldi, and Terralina and surrounding communities.
Is Mountains Edge entering a big replacement cycle?
Yes. Built almost entirely between 2004-2012, Mountains Edge is a textbook community replacement cycle — nearly every home has builder-grade equipment that's now 14-20+ years old. Proactive evaluation helps you plan and budget before an emergency forces a rushed decision.
Why is dust such a big issue in Mountains Edge?
Mountains Edge borders open Bureau of Land Management desert on its south and west sides — with no development to block wind-driven dust. This creates some of the highest dust exposure in the valley, shortening filter life to 30-45 days and requiring more frequent condenser cleaning.
Air Handler Installation Priorities for Mountains Edge Homes
Air handler installation in Mountain's Edge determines indoor airflow quality — proper blower sizing, coil matching, and return duct configuration are critical for both comfort and system longevity. Mountains Edge air handlers (2004-present) are approaching their first significant service milestones: blower motor capacitor wear, evaporator coil fouling, and drain pan integrity checks. The community's desert-edge exposure means higher dust loads passing through air handlers than interior neighborhoods experience. Most homes have accessible garage installations with standard filter sizes and drain connections, making routine air handler maintenance efficient and straightforward.
