An air handler system comprising a cabinet housing a blower unit and a heat exchange unit. The blower unit and the heat exchange unit are located in a substantially same lateral dimension in the cabinet. The blower unit and the heat exchange unit are separated by a distance that provides for a substantially uniform flow of air through a vertically-orientated plane of the heat exchange unit when the blower unit is in operation.

Compact air handler system

Air conditioning apparatus is provided in which an air blower and an electric heater assembly are located in a common housing with the heater assembly projecting into the housing from a wall thereof in transverse relationship to the blower. This configuration eliminates the need for a dedicated space for the electric heater downstream of the blower housing, which reduces the size of the apparatus. The wall of the housing includes an opening through which the heater assembly is insertable into the housing. The heater assembly includes a mounting plate to close off the wall opening and to removably mount the heater assembly with the housing. The heater assembly preferably further includes an open coil electric heater, with a major dimension of the heater being oriented generally parallel to the direction of air flow in the blower housing.

A level sensing device ( ) for a drain pan ( ) which collects fluid from a source of fluid ( ) in an associated HVAC unit ( ). The drain pan ( ) has at least one side wall ( ). The device ( ) has a bracket ( ) having agenerally U-shaped portion with first and second legs ( ). The generally U-shaped portion serves to mount the device ( ) to the at least one side wall ( ) of the drain pan ( ). A shelf ( ) extends from the second leg ( ) of the bracket ( ). A switch ( ) is secured to the bracket ( ). The switch ( ) is triggered when the fluid level ( ) rises above a predetermined level causing electrical power to the associated HVAC unit ( ) to be shut off. An HVAC unit ( ) employing this device is also disclosed.
