depending on ambient temperature and humidity it is likely to freeze on cooling since there won't be enough heat exchange area or air flow to dissipate the 36,000 BTU of the 3 ton unit without dropping below freezing point of the water that will be condensed on the surfaces. On heating the temperature of the heat exchange coils will get too high the pressure will be too high and the outside unit will draw excessive power possibly trip a safety device. In short: it might but I sure would not risk it.

I have been told that if you are going to replace a 10 seer with a 13 seer, you have to change the coil on the inside unit to work with a 13 seer heap pump. In order to gain the extra energy efficiency yes you would need to replace the air handler as well.


What is a handler?

A handler is simply a box that does nothing more than move air. This is most commonly used if you do not have a central heating system and you want to install central AC or a heat pump. The coil is installed in the box and the blower is then able to blow the air into the home.

How does the Amana heat pump work?

An Amana heat pump works just like an air conditioner would work. When the temperature outside starts falling, the heat pump automatically turns on and by reversing the process of turning air cold, it heats the air instead, thus allowing you to keep your home warm.
