In many Florida homes, the air handler is in the attic which is far from ideal...
With temperatures reaching 160° F in the summer months, HVAC professionals agree that Florida attics are about the worst place you could possibly install an air conditioning system. Not to mention the fact that it makes it hard to access for service.
Having your air handler in the hottest part of the house means it has to work harder to keep you cool and that means higher utility bills and an overburdened system that malfunctions more frequently. Relocating the air handler to a cooler part of the house will result in significant energy savings and it will extend the life of your system, so it is a worthwhile investment.
But relocating an air handler is not a job for beginners, inexperienced technicians will take longer to complete the task (which means you pay more – one way or another) and they may knowledge regarding the best place to relocate the unit so you should only use a company that has plenty of experience providing this type of service to Florida homes.
