Durastar air handlers match Durastar heat pump and AC condensers. Figures are manufacturer ratings.
The air handler is the indoor half of your system, so we install every Durastar air handler AHRI-matched to your heat pump or AC for rated efficiency, with sealed duct connections, a level cabinet, a clean condensate drain with a float switch, and correctly sized heat strips where needed.
A matched, well-installed air handler is what delivers quiet, even airflow. See our AC installation page or browse all air handler brands.
Weak airflow, a blower that will not start, water in the drain pan, or ice on the coil? Our factory-trained technicians diagnose and repair Durastar air handlers fast, with 24/7 service across Suffolk and Nassau County, checking the blower, coil, drain, and controls.
