Attic air handler layout.

Horizontal flow air handlers can be configured in left to right or right to left configurations upon installation. But hvac professionals agree it s not ideal. A heat pump can either be a package system which has one cabinet mounted against foundation or on rooftop or it can be a split system with two cabinets. The important part of this attic installation is that the air handler has plenty of drains and a safety cutoff to ensure that the air handler turns off before the secondary drain pan overflows into the attic.

So why put an hvac system up in the attic at all. If your system includes air purifiers with activated charcoal filters these also affect air flow and may require larger ducts and or additional air returns. Since 1996 attic air has earned a reputation for providing effective solutions for your insulation and ventilation needs. Why should you relocate your air handler.

Most updated central air conditioned homes have a new air conditioner split system meaning the ac is broken up into parts. An outdoor unit which houses the fan condenser and compressor and an indoor unit which holds the evaporator and fan. So having your air handler in your attic isn t a great idea but what s the big deal. Use the right materials fittings and supports.

Attic hvac systems save space. The evaporator coil is in the air handler. Certain types of air conditioning systems like heat pumps require larger ducts. Attic air is an insulation company that specializes in evaluating your home to ensure that it is properly ventilated and insulated and the evaluation is free.

Well mainly it s a way to save space.
