Bard part 8604-043 is an OEM electric heat strip used for auxiliary or backup heat in compatible Bard wall mounted HVAC units and air handlers. Rated at 8 kW and 240V with a 4 terminal configuration, this heater assembly is designed to restore proper staging heat output when a failed element or damaged terminal connection is causing weak heat, nuisance trips, or no heat calls. Because heat strip fit and wiring can vary by model and heater rack, confirm the kW rating, voltage, and terminal layout against your unit data plate and the Bard service literature before ordering to ensure correct installation and safe operation.
