I have no idea what your builder means when talking about support only on the upper third. Can't picture that.

Thanks for paging me Thom sorry I took so long to get back here.

Have to admit I have never seen them hung with metal strapping in my area & I am really glad.
I don't see how the air handler could have any type of support hanging there like that with straps.
We have always used 3/8" threaded rod & unistrut with this being bolted to the cabinet.

The air handlers made by Trane & American Standard already have female connections on the ends of their air handlers for threaded rod to tie into.

I see no practical application for placing them inside the doors except making the doors a pain to remove & reinstall.
