Two things are worth knowing before you buy one: capacity falls as the outdoor temperature drops, and the unit stops producing heat entirely during a defrost cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is what the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/electric-heat-kit-everwell-ahc-series-standard-return\"\u003eAHC electric heat kit\u003c\/a\u003e is for.
