4.1 Comprobacións previas á instalación

Verify that the HKR-05 is compatible with your existing HVAC system.
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 Pasos da instalación

Montaxe: Securely mount the HKR-05 heat strip within the designated compartment of the air handler or furnace, following the manufacturer's instructions for the specific HVAC unit. Ensure it is positioned for optimal heat distribution and airflow.
Conexións eléctricas: Connect the pre-wired leads of the heat strip to the corresponding terminals in the HVAC unit's control board or power distribution block. Refer to the wiring diagram provided with your air handler/furnace. Ensure all connections are tight and secure.
Conexión a terra: Ensure the heat strip is properly grounded according to local electrical codes.
Interruptor: Install the appropriate circuit breaker(s) in your electrical panel, sized correctly for a 5Kw electric heater. Note: The HKR-05 does not include a circuit breaker.
Comprobacións finais: Double-check all wiring connections for correctness and security. Ensure no wires are pinched or exposed.

5. Funcionamento

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 Operación normal

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. Mantemento

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.

6.1 Recommended Maintenance Tasks

Desconexión de alimentación: Always disconnect all electrical power to the HVAC system at the main electrical panel before performing any maintenance.
Inspección visual: Annually inspect the heating elements for any signs of damage, corrosion, or excessive dust accumulation.
Limpeza: Gently clean any dust or debris from the heating elements and surrounding area using a soft brush or vacuum cleaner. Ensure no foreign objects are lodged within the unit.
Conexións eléctricas: Check all electrical connections for tightness and signs of overheating or corrosion. Tighten any loose connections.
Filtro de ar: Ensure the air filter in your HVAC system is clean and replaced regularly as per your system's recommendations. A dirty filter can restrict airflow and reduce heating efficiency.
