Common Questions

Is the EHWA05-A10B compatible with all Bard wall-mount units?
Compatibility depends on the specific model and voltage. This kit is designed for single-phase 230V units. Always check the unit's serial plate or cabinet nomenclature to confirm the approved heater packages for your specific air conditioner or heat pump.

Can I use this 10KW kit to replace a smaller 5KW heat strip?
While physically similar, upgrading to a 10KW heat kit requires verifying that the existing supply wiring and circuit breakers are rated for the increased amperage draw. Refer to the unit’s electrical specification table for minimum circuit ampacity (MCA) requirements.

Does this kit include a circuit breaker or pull disconnect?
Yes, the EHWA05-A10B typically includes a factory-installed circuit breaker or disconnect within the heater control base, depending on the specific application requirements of the wall-mount unit.
