Ensure the electrical supply matches the requirements of the heat strip (5Kw, single phase).
Confirm that the installation location (e.g., air handler cabinet) has adequate space and proper airflow.
Turn off all power to the HVAC system at the main electrical panel before proceeding.

4.2 Matanho ekuisa

5. Kushanda

The Goodman HKR-05 Auxiliary Heat Strip operates automatically in conjunction with your HVAC system's thermostat and control board. It is designed to provide supplemental heat when the primary heating source (e.g., heat pump) cannot meet the heating demand, or when the system is set to "Emergency Heat" mode.

5.1 Kujairika Kushanda

When the thermostat calls for heat and the outdoor temperature is below the heat pump's efficient operating range, or if the heat pump cannot maintain the set temperature, the auxiliary heat strip will be energized.
The heat strip will cycle on and off as needed to maintain the desired indoor temperature.

5.2 Emergency Heat Mode

If your HVAC system has an "Emergency Heat" setting, selecting this mode on your thermostat will typically disable the heat pump and rely solely on the auxiliary heat strip for heating. This mode is generally used if the heat pump is malfunctioning.

Note: Electric auxiliary heat consumes more electricity than a heat pump. Use it judiciously to manage energy costs.

6. Kuchengeta

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your auxiliary heat strip. It is recommended that a qualified technician perform annual inspections and maintenance.
