I recently bought a condo with this old ass McQuay air handler in it. The chiller / heat is located in another building and this controls the airflow in my place. The motor broke down and I opened it up and it's full of mold so severely that I'm just going to have to replace. Any idea how much I'm looking at to replace it? Any recommendations for what I should be looking for to buy? This thing is so old I can't even find a fuckin serial number on it.

Is it even worth DIY or should I just suck it up and pay an HVAC company / at what cost?

Forgot to mention, this isn't the one in my unit, just a similar one I found online. Mine has an external motor on the right side, too.

Oh I'm getting it totally replaced, I'll hire a prof to clean the air ducts right after, too.

I was just trying to figure out how much work / time / money to do the replacement myself or if it's one of those things I should just get a prof to do.
