Adding Heat Strips
What's the chances of being able to add heat strips to a B57915.711C0 with a control box of 3107541.009. Having a hard time locating anything on it.

If you add heat strips you must add wire and breaker to carry the extra load of the strips. Also, thermostat to control them. Not a DIY job.
He has a Dometic roof AC. WHY WOULD HE NEED TO CHANGE THE WIRING OR BREAKER????????????. The system is designed for 20 amp max service. The largest Heat Strip is about 12.1 amps. The AC in COOL/Max fan is about 13.2 amps. The heat strips are plug and play. The only requirements are, that for easiest install you have a wall Tstat and you may have to replace the wall tstat if you have NO Heat Strip option, only furnace. You can add a Heat Strip to a Roof mounted control system but you have to replace the Tstat and possibly the ON/Off knob control. Doug
