Amana-Goodman HKR-08 Heater
The Amana-Goodman HKR-08 Heater is a high-performance 8kW heat strip kit engineered to provide reliable auxiliary heating for Goodman and Amana air handlers and packaged units. This 7.0 kW nominal capacity electric heater delivers approximately 23,800 to 27,297 BTU of supplemental heat, making it an ideal choice for maintaining indoor comfort during extreme temperature drops. Featuring rust-resistant nickel chromium heat elements and an advanced alloy open coil design, the HKR-08 ensures rapid heat transfer and long-term durability. The unit utilizes sequencers for better temperature control and staging, preventing sudden power surges while optimizing energy usage. For streamlined integration, it includes a plug-in wiring harness and is completely assembled and tested to meet ETL listing standards. Whether you are upgrading an existing system or adding backup heat to a heat pump, this single-phase 208/240V heater kit provides the critical thermal support needed for residential or light commercial HVAC applications.
Key Benefits
- Efficient Supplemental Heat: Provides up to 27,297 BTU to support main heating systems in cold climates.
- Durable Construction: Features nickel chromium heating elements that resist corrosion and extend service life.
- Simplified Installation: The plug-in wiring harness and pre-assembled design ensure a secure and fast field installation.
- Advanced Safety: Includes built-in overcurrent protection and fuse link secondary high-temperature limit controls for operational safety.
- Precise Staging: Integrated sequencers allow for controlled heating stages, improving overall system efficiency.
Common Questions
What air handlers are compatible with the HKR-08?
This 8kW electric heat kit is designed for Goodman ARUF, AWUF, and MBR series air handlers, as well as specific Amana modular blowers. Always verify your specific model number for electrical termination compatibility.
Does the HKR-08 include a circuit breaker?
The standard Goodman HKR-08 typically does not include a factory-installed circuit breaker. If your local building code requires a breaker at the unit, you may need the HKR-08C model or a separate disconnect.
Can this be used with a 208V power supply?
Yes, the Amana-Goodman HKR-08 is rated for 208/240V single-phase applications. Note that the total kilowatt output and BTU capacity will be slightly lower when operating at 208V compared to 240V.
