Bard part number 8604-052 is an OEM electric heat strip assembly rated at 15 kW and 480V with a 6 terminal connection layout, commonly used as factory supplemental or emergency electric heat in compatible Bard wall mounted HVAC and heat pump applications. When a heat strip is failing, you may see reduced heat output, nuisance trips, or uneven staging, and replacing it with the correct Bard 8604-052 kit helps restore proper airflow temperature rise and reliable cold weather operation. Confirm unit voltage, kW requirement, and the exact heat kit callout in your Bard parts list before ordering, since electric heat options vary by model and control scheme and this heat strip must match the designed staging and electrical configuration for safe, correct operation.
