6" Diameter 1000/500W 120V TPI Hotpod Inlet Duct Mounted Heater Hardwired HP610001202T

Product Information

Specification

Also Known As :
This type of heater is typically installed into existing ducting and is used to provide supplemental heat to a specific area or to the entire space served by the HVAC system. 

About :
The compact design allows it to be easily integrated into home heating systems, and it's usually controlled by a thermostat for convenient temperature regulation.A duct-mounted heater, often referred to as a 'hotpod' or inline duct heater, which is designed for use in HVAC systems to heat air as it passes through the ductwork.

Features :
• Hotpod Supplemental Duct Mounted Heating System. Use To Heat Cold Rooms Or Additions Without Upgraing Central System.
• Fan Only Operation For Increased CFM Output For A/C Cycles.
• An inlet duct mounted heater cord refers to a specific type of electrical connection used for duct heaters, particularly those installed at the inlet side of a duct system.
• Made in the USA.

Inlet Duct: This is the part of the duct system where air enters. Placing a heater here ensures that the air is heated right at the point of entry, which can be efficient for heating the entire volume of air moving through the system.

Mounted Heater: This refers to the actual heating unit that is installed within the ductwork. These heaters are typically mounted onto the duct's walls and include heating elements (like electric coils) that warm the air passing over them.

Hardwired: Which means it's intended to be directly connected to the home's electrical system rather than being plugged into a standard electrical outlet with a cord. Hardwiring ensures a more stable and permanent connection, which is suitable for devices like HVAC components that are fixed in place and require a reliable power supply.

Importance of the Heater Cord:

Safety: The cord must be correctly rated for the power requirements of the heater to avoid overheating or electrical hazards.
Efficiency: A well-matched cord and heater can optimize the efficiency of the heating process, reducing energy consumption.
Reliability: A durable and well-installed cord ensures consistent operation of the heater without frequent maintenance or replacements.
Installation: Professional installation is crucial for safety and efficiency. It involves not only securing the heater within the duct but also ensuring the electrical connections (including the cord) are properly and safely made.
