    15kw heat kit is only heating 1 coil

    This is a brand new heat kit HKR-15C and goodman air handler MBR1200AA. I do not have a heat pump or A/C. After installation, everything came on, except on the heat strip only 1 coil is heating. Had an electrician test every wire and he said everything is getting power appropriately. Is it just a faulty heat strip or or is something hooked up wrong? The installation instructions were followed exactly.

    Could be either. Normally something is hooked up wrong.

    you need to call whomever installed it and have them figure it out, if you installed it yourself; now it's time to pony up the money to get it installed correctly and operational.
    It`s better to be silent and thought the fool; than speak and remove all doubt.

    Call out a professional.

    Extremely easy fix, for someone familure with goodman (or any for that matter) equitment.

    "Dude, you need more than 2 wires to a condenser to run a 2 stage heatpump."
