Electric Heat

  Heater

All models (with Electric Heat) of the new Zoneline have a three bank heater assembly.  They have 

three thermal switches to protect the circuit; two are cycling (resettable) thermal switches and the one 

is a "one-shot" thermal switch. 

Features may vary depending model number throughout this Service Guide.

The heater assembly sets on the base pan and is secured by two screws on the left end cap.

The thermal cut-outs are part of the heater assembly.
