The Ruud UHSA series factory matched air handler is the answer to superior heating and cooling performance. For quiet performance and greater comfort in both heating and cooling this air handler simply out-performs the competition.
An air handler is comprised of an evaporator coil and a blower, which circulates cooled or heated air throughout your home. The Ruud UHSA series air handlers are easy to install, and what’s more, they provide years of quiet and dependable operation.
Standard Ruud air handler quality features include:
- Sturdy construction with 1.0" of reinforced foil-faced insulation
- Rugged steel wall cabinet construction for added strength
- Copper tube and aluminum fin coils
- Molded polymer corrosion resistant drain pan
- Transformer and blower time delay for maximum efficiency
The air handler that is matched with this system is not only among the quietest made but can significantly reduce mold and mildew build-up within the system. Ruud has developed a specially designed drain pan that provides for more complete condensation removal, preventing the build-up of standing water. And, when you add one of our whole-house air cleaners to your system, you will experience a reduction in dust, pollen and other allergens throughout your entire home resulting in a cleaner, healthier, more comfortable home.
The Ruud air handler is versatile and can be installed as an upflow (ductwork above the air handler), downflow (ductwork under the air handler), and horizontally (air handler in an attic, crawlspace, or basement). If you are capable, you can do most of the installation yourself and then set up a service call for a professional to come and open the refrigeration system and check the charge.
Any qualified air conditioning technician can easily install this system in your home or office. It will normally require about 5-8 hours to replace an existing, similar type system.
