Common Questions:

What is the Ohm reading for a 5.6kW 240V element?
When troubleshooting, a healthy York S1-3500-406P/A should measure approximately 10.3 Ohms. Significant deviations usually indicate a fractured coil or internal resistance issues.

Can this element be used in 208V systems?
While physically compatible, using this 5.6kW 240V element on a 208V circuit will result in a lower heat output (approximately 4.2kW). Always verify the nameplate data of the specific air handler before installation.

Are the thermal limits included in this kit?
This specific part is the heater element assembly. Contractors should inspect existing thermal limits and secondary HVAC replacement parts for signs of scorching or fatigue during the swap.
