It's dark outside and tight inside. A gloved hand rests on the old foil-wrapped ductwork, then three techs in black hoodies guide the new air handler down into its spot, working around each other in a space barely wider than the cabinet.
The finish shot shows the new unit in place with a fresh white PVC condensate trap on the drain. The air handler is the indoor cabinet with the blower and the cooling coil. The trap is the U-bend that lets water drain out without the blower pulling air back up the pipe.
Usually alongside the outdoor unit, so the coil and condenser match and the system reaches its rated efficiency. On its own, replace it when the cabinet or drain pan is rusting through, the coil leaks or the blower keeps failing. Most last around 15 years, give or take, depending on how faithfully the filter got changed.
