MRCOOL 2nd Gen VersaPro & Hyper Heat Central Ducted Electric Heat Kit — 5kW, 8kW, 10kW, 15kW, 20kW

Boost cold-weather comfort on your MRCOOL 2nd Gen VersaPro or 2nd Gen Hyper Heat central ducted system with a factory-matched Electric Heat (Aux/Emergency) Kit. When outdoor temps fall well below a heat pump’s rated range, this add-on provides the extra electric heat you need to stay comfortable—no waiting on a thaw or a second truck roll.

Available sizes: 5kW • 8kW • 10kW • 15kW • 20kW
Use case: Aux/Emergency heat for sub-freezing weather, defrost cycles, and cold snaps

Why add a heat kit?

• Cold-climate backup: Heat pumps naturally lose capacity as temps drop; the kit supplies aux/emergency electric heat to cover the lows.

• Smoother operation: Helps maintain indoor comfort during defrost and extreme weather.

• Factory-matched fit: Designed specifically for 2nd Gen VersaPro & 2nd Gen Hyper Heat central air handlers for proper airflow, safeties, and wiring.

Which size should I choose?

• Model-specific: Smaller air handlers typically use smaller kW kits—always match to your unit’s model label/manual.

• Warmer/Southern climates: Often optional; smaller kW usually covers rare cold snaps.

• Colder/Northern climates: Recommended; choose a higher kW where electrical capacity and air handler sizing allow.
