Air Handler Installation Technical Guide for Southern Highlands
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.
