Lennox 27X96 Heat Strip
The Lennox 27X96 is a professional-grade 10kW electric heat strip designed for seamless integration with specific Lennox air handlers and residential HVAC configurations. As a genuine OEM electric heater kit, this component provides critical supplemental or emergency heating, ensuring system performance maintains design specifications during low-ambient conditions. Utilizing a factory-installed terminal block, this unit facilitates secure and efficient electrical termination, reducing installation time and mitigating common field-wiring errors. Engineered to replace or cross-reference AEHBCC10NSA-1, 20445018, and 1.821044, it maintains the precise airflow tolerances and thermal safety required for OEM equipment. For contractors, the 27X96 ensures a direct fit, maintaining the integrity of the heat exchanger assembly and ensuring reliable thermistor and high-limit switch operation without the compatibility failures often associated with aftermarket heating elements.
Key Technician Benefits
- Precise 10kW Output: Delivers calibrated electric auxiliary heat to meet specific load calculations.
- Integrated Terminal Block: Simplifies line-voltage connections and ensures high-amperage electrical security.
- OEM Engineering: Eliminates mounting modifications and ensures proper clearance from internal unit components.
- Safety Compliance: Built to factory standards to prevent nuisance tripping and optimize thermal safety limits.
- Broad Cross-Compatibility: Direct replacement for Lennox part number 27X96 and several legacy heater kit versions.
Common Questions
What air handler models are compatible with the Lennox 27X96?
This 10kW kit is engineered for specific Lennox air handlers requiring 208/240V configurations. Technicians should verify the cabinet size and heater housing dimensions to ensure proper fitment with the internal auxiliary heat racks.
Does this heater kit include the circuit breakers?
The 27X96 features a factory-installed terminal block. Depending on the specific BTU requirements and local electrical codes, certain applications may require additional overcurrent protection or a separate breaker kit for field installation.
Can this be used as a primary heat source?
While typically utilized as supplemental heat for heat pump systems during defrost cycles or high-demand periods, it can function as a primary heat source in smaller residential applications where the calculated heat loss does not exceed the 10kW capacity.
