Heil Quaker ICP EHK208B Heat Kit

The Heil Quaker ICP EHK208B Heat Kit is a high-performance 8 kW electric heater kit specifically engineered for seamless integration into ICP air handlers and fan coil units. Operating on a 208/240V single-phase power supply, this OEM supplemental heating solution is essential for residential and light commercial applications where reliable heat staging is required. This kit comes equipped with a built-in 45A circuit breaker, providing critical overcurrent protection and a local disconnect point for the technician. The assembly includes premium heating elements and integrated safety controls such as limit thermal switches and high-voltage sequencers to ensure precise temperature management and system safety. As a veteran-grade HVAC heat strip kit, the EHK208B facilitates a "plug-and-play" field installation via a factory-wired harness, maintaining the integrity of the original HVAC system performance without necessitating extensive field modifications. Contractors should verify that the minimum airflow (CFM) requirements of the specific air handler are met to prevent high-limit tripping and ensure long-term reliability of the elements.
