Nordyne 270873R Heat Kit

Nordyne 270873R Heat Kit

As a field-ready solution for residential and mobile home air handlers, the Nordyne 270873R 10KW 208/230V Heat Kit provides reliable supplemental or primary electric heating. This factory-authorized OEM Nordyne heating element is engineered for a precision fit within compatible B6, B5, and GMH series air handlers, ensuring seamless integration with existing control boards and wiring harnesses. Operating at 240V, this 10kW assembly delivers approximately 34,121 BTU of heat output, making it a standard choice for contractors performing HVAC electric heater installation or replacing burnt-out elements. The kit includes the necessary sequencers and limit switches to maintain safe operating temperatures and staged heating cycles. This 208/230V electric heat kit eliminates the guesswork of aftermarket "universal" parts, providing the exact resistance and airflow clearance required to prevent premature component failure or nuisance tripping in Nordyne air handler parts configurations.

Key Benefits for the Contractor:
  • Direct OEM Compatibility: Built specifically to match the bolt patterns and electrical connectors of Nordyne, Intertherm, and Miller air handlers.
  • Integrated Safety Controls: Equipped with primary and secondary thermal limit protection to prevent overheating during restricted airflow conditions.
  • Quiet Staged Heating: High-quality sequencers ensure the unit ramps up without the heavy electrical "thump" associated with lower-grade components.
  • Resistant Coil Design: Features heavy-duty nickel-chromium heating coils designed to withstand repeated thermal expansion and contraction.
Common Questions & Technical Support:

What causes a heat kit to stop working?
Most failures are due to a tripped thermal limit, a failed sequencer, or a broken heating element coil. Always check for continuity across the element and verify that the 24V signal is reaching the sequencer before replacing the entire assembly.

Is this kit compatible with 208V systems?
Yes, this unit is rated for 208/230V. However, keep in mind that operating on a 208V circuit will result in a lower kW output (approximately 7.5kW) compared to a standard 240V circuit.

Why is my air handler blowing cold air after installation?
Verify that the low-voltage "W" wire is properly seated at the terminal block and that the circuit breaker for the heat kit (separate from the blower breaker) has been reset.
