[QUOTE="stick4, post: 3231436, member: 26023"] Air off the air handler from a heat pump is about 140° where the air off a gas or electric unit is about 20° hotter. Not hot enough to rid the A coil of bacteria growth. While we got used to the first few minutes of air being cool in our house we don't like that 'dirty sock' bacteria smell we have in the spring from switching back and forth between heating and cooling. Here's a link explaining that: [URL]https://www.pvhvac.com/blog/has-your-house-got-dirty-sock-syndrome-heres-how-to-fix-it[/URL] I found some cakes of air freshener at Locke Supply so put one in in a return air vent every spring.
