Electric Furnaces & Air Handlers

Electric furnaces and air handlers are the indoor backbone of ducted HVAC systems—especially when paired with heat pumps or straight-cool condensers. They deliver the airflow (CFM) your system needs and support optional electric heat kits when auxiliary or emergency heat is required.

• Match system tonnage and required airflow (CFM)
• Confirm cabinet orientation: upflow, downflow, horizontal
• Verify voltage/MCA and control compatibility (standard vs communicating)
• Choose approved coils and heat kit options (OEM match)

Selection errors usually come from mismatched airflow, cabinet fit, or wrong accessories—not “bad equipment.” Confirm your indoor model family and approved pairings before ordering.

Pro tip: If humidity control is weak, airflow is often too high. If coils freeze, airflow is often too low. Match CFM to the manufacturer table.
