Frequently Asked Questions

  • What tonnage air handler should I choose to match my existing outdoor unit?

    Match the air handler tonnage to the outdoor unit and duct design; confirm an AHRI-listed pairing and adequate static pressure.

  • Are these air handlers compatible with R-32 or R-454B systems, and can they replace R-410A units?

    Models are refrigerant-specific; select a coil and metering device approved for R-32 or R-454B, or for R-410A, and have a pro verify line set compatibility.

  • What does multi-position mean and how does it affect installation?

    Multi-position handlers can be set for upflow, downflow, or horizontal, affecting drain pan orientation, traps, and airflow direction during install.

  • Do these air handlers support 19 SEER2 outdoor units or higher efficiency pairings?

    Yes, when paired with the manufacturer’s matching outdoor unit; SEER2 is a system rating verified by listed combinations.

  • Which cabinet width will fit my current closet or attic installation?

    Measure the platform, return opening, and doorway clearance, then select from widths like 14" to 24.81" to match your space.

  • Is professional installation required for charging and commissioning with new refrigerants?

    Yes; EPA-certified technicians must handle R-32/R-454B and R-410A, perform pressure tests, evacuations, and charge to specifications.

  • Can these standard air handlers be used in light commercial applications?

    Yes, for small offices or retail within capacity and code limits; confirm airflow, controls, and electrical requirements per model.

  • How do I verify airflow orientation and condensate drain configuration for my setup?

    Check the install manual for orientation settings, primary/secondary drain locations, required traps, and proper slope on drain lines.

  • Can I reuse my existing line set and thermostat?

    Often, if size and condition are correct; lines may need flushing or replacement, and most systems use standard 24V thermostats.

  • What electrical requirements should I check before ordering?

    Verify supply voltage, MCA/MOCP, and wire gauge against the unit data plate, and ensure a properly sized disconnect and breaker.
