Remove the air handler electrical disconnect. Pull out the electrical disconnect on the air handler. If you have an old air handler without an electrical disconnect, turn off the circuit breaker to the air handler.
Remove the panel off the air handler. Use the screwdriver to remove all the screws holding the panel in place.
Locate the electric heater in the air handler cabinet. Remove the ribbon cables on the electric heater. Remove all the screws holding the electric motor in place. After you have the screws and the cables off, you can safely pull out the electric heater. If you do not know what the electric heater looks like, look at the replacement heater for guidance.
Place the new electric heater where the old one was. Secure the heater in place by installing the screws. Connect the ribbon cable to the electric heater to finish the wiring.
Replace the air handler cover and secure it in place with the screwdriver. Turn on the power by inserting the electrical disconnect back in place or turn on the circuit breaker . Turn on the electrical heater and wait at least 10 minutes for it to start.

Positive temperature coefficient heating element. Resistivity grow larger with higher temperatures so the heating element should be self regulating.
limitation of heating element
Heating element is the main part of the ironbox which gets heated as current passes through it. We have to use the material for heating element with features such as: 1) high melting point 2) high specific resistance 3) not easily oxidised. (most important point) Hence the alloy NICHROME ( nickel and chromium) is used for heating element because it is not oxidised even at high temperatures.
An element in the activity series can replace any element below it on the list. The ability of an element to react is referred to as the element's activity.
tungsten has high resistivity and resistance but at a higher temperature it becomes hot and oxidised and melted so we can't use tungsten as heating coil
no because an heating elementcan cause electric shock.
If you are getting power in the socket--replace heating element If you are getting power to the socket, but not through it--replace socket and element

Yes heating element is burner assembly.
Positive temperature coefficient heating element. Resistivity grow larger with higher temperatures so the heating element should be self regulating.
we wont use copper as a heating element because it expands on heating and it can effect the thermostat
where is the heating element on a kenmore series 400
Oil central heating tends to be more expensive when compared to gas central heating as the price for heating oil tends to be higher when compared to natural gas. The price of heating oil also tends to be more volatile than natural gas.
Many companies make a solid central heating boiler. Stores like Sears offers solid central heating boilers as well as sites like central heating dot com.
