The Bard 8604-098BX heat strip is an OEM 5.0 kW, 240V electric resistance heater designed to add supplemental heat in compatible Bard wall mounted and packaged HVAC equipment when outdoor conditions call for extra heating capacity. This two terminal heater kit is commonly used in electric heat applications to restore reliable warm air delivery and proper temperature rise when an original heater has failed or is damaged. Verify the unit model and voltage requirements before ordering, and have a qualified technician confirm correct wiring and airflow setup during installation to protect the heater and the rest of the electrical system.
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.
