It is only blowing 5kw and should be 10kw .he wants to charge me 400 bucks but I can buy the heayer at the ac shop for 135 new. Is it pretty easy to do all I saw was 2 wires and 2 crews on the stip.. help

    If you feel comfortable changing the heater go for it but make sure it is the exact one for your unit and do not increase the KW since you will also have to change to a larger size wiring all the way back to the electric panel.
