The Bard 8604-089BX heat strip is an OEM 5 kW, 240V electric resistance heater designed to add dependable supplemental or emergency heat to compatible Bard wall mounted and packaged HVAC units. This two terminal heater kit installs in the factory heat section to restore proper warm air output when an original element has failed or is not heating evenly, helping bring the unit back to its intended heating capacity without changing how the rest of the system operates. Confirm your unit model and heater option in the Bard parts list or service manual, and match voltage and kW rating before ordering to ensure correct fit and safe operation.
Bard uses suffixes like "BX" to manage parts internally. These do not change the physical form or function of the part.
A part number ending in "BX" simply means it is packaged in a box for shipping, rather than for internal assembly use.
Example: 8406-142BX is physically identical to 8406-142.
