About the Brand

About Rheem Air Handlers

Rheem air handlers are the indoor half of a heat pump or AC system, with ECM blower options from constant-torque up to fully variable-speed. The Endeavor RH2V uses an all-aluminum coil and a quiet, ramping variable-speed blower.

Rheem air handler highlights:

  • RH2V variable-speed, RH2T two-stage, RH1T ECM
  • Variable-speed and constant-torque ECM blowers
  • All-aluminum indoor coils
  • EcoNet-enabled models
  • AHRI-matched to Rheem outdoor units
Installation Cost

Air Handler Installation Cost

Here is roughly what a new air handler costs to install, using current national averages.

ItemTypical installed cost (U.S. average)
Air handler (installed)$1,500 - $4,200
Variable-speed (ECM) unit$1,400 - $2,500

Per Angi and HomeAdvisor (2026): air handler replacement averages about $2,800 and runs $1,500 to $4,200 installed. Variable-speed ECM blowers cost more up front but run quieter and use less electricity. The unit is $700 to $1,600 plus $800 to $1,800 labor.

An air handler must be AHRI-matched to your outdoor unit to hit its rated efficiency. Figures are manufacturer ratings.

Installation

Air Handler Installation

The air handler is the indoor half of your system, so we install every Rheem 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.

Repair & Maintenance

Air Handler Repair & Maintenance

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 Rheem air handlers fast, with 24/7 service across Suffolk and Nassau County, checking the blower, coil, drain, and controls.

Keeping the coil and blower clean and the drain clear preserves airflow and efficiency. See our AC maintenance page.

Replacement

Air Handler Replacement

When the blower fails, the coil rusts or leaks, or your air handler no longer matches a newer outdoor unit, replacing it restores efficiency and comfort. We will AHRI-match a new Rheem air handler, often with a quieter variable-speed ECM blower.

We handle removal, the matched coil, duct and drain connections, and a free estimate up front. See the systems it pairs with in heat pump and central AC brands.

When To Call

Signs Your Air Handler Needs Repair

Catching these early usually means a smaller, cheaper fix. Call us if your Rheem air handler shows any of the following:

  • Weak or no airflow from the vents
  • The blower runs constantly or will not start
  • Water leaking from the indoor unit or drain pan
  • Ice on the coil
  • Rattling, squealing or humming from the cabinet
  • Uneven temperatures room to room
  • A musty smell when the fan runs
  • Rising energy bills
When To Replace

Signs You Need a Replacement

Repair is not always the smart money. It is usually time to replace when you see:

  • The air handler is 12-15+ years old
  • A failed or noisy blower motor, or a rusted coil
  • It is mismatched to a newer outdoor unit
  • Repairs are getting frequent or expensive
  • You upgraded the heat pump or AC and need a match
  • You want a quieter, variable-speed ECM blower

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about this air handler brand on Long Island.

2Do you install or replace Rheem air handlers?

Yes. We install and replace Rheem air handlers, sized for your home and installed to code, with a free estimate up front.

3What does an air handler do?

The air handler holds the indoor coil and blower that move conditioned air through your ducts. In a heat pump system it delivers both heating and cooling; matched correctly to the outdoor unit, it unlocks the system's rated efficiency.

4Why does the air handler need to match the outdoor unit?

An AHRI-matched indoor and outdoor pairing is what achieves the rated SEER2 and HSPF2. A mismatched air handler can cut efficiency and comfort, so we always match it correctly.
