Confused connecting power to heat strip
I have a HKR-20C strip for Goodman 4 ton package heat pump. The instructions are not real clear about connecting power.
Says connect to terminal blocks. DO I use a jumper from block 1 to block 3 then 2 to 4?

Just because you got a company to install it does not mean it is proffesional. With that lets say it was done proffesionally things do go wrong with equipment so why would you try to repair it by yourself? It should be under warranty by instal company.

make sure your"Fan" setting on thermostat is not set to "ON" instead of "AUTO". If it's on "ON" then the fan will run continuously.

If your unsure about the way your contractor installed something, you can post a picture of it, and we can tell you if it was installed correctly. Originally Posted by man00

What I will say, is there are certain applications where what it seems your describing is allowed, provided certain parts are used."Better tell the sandman to stay away, because we're gonna be workin on this one all night."
"Dude, you need more than 2 wires to a condenser to run a 2 stage heatpump."
"Just get it done son."
