Bard 8604-118BX is an OEM 5 kW, 240V electric heat strip designed to add reliable supplemental and emergency heat to compatible Bard wall-mounted HVAC units. This two-terminal, L-boxed heater assembly installs in the unit’s electric heat section to help maintain comfort during cold weather, heat pump defrost cycles, or when mechanical heat is not available. For proper fit and safe operation, confirm the kW, voltage, and terminal style match your unit’s model and serial data before ordering.
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.
