Estimating the term…
Air conditioning apparatus is provided in which an air blower and an electric heater assembly are located in a common housing with the heater assembly projecting into the housing from a wall thereof in transverse relationship to the blower. This configuration eliminates the need for a dedicated space for the electric heater downstream of the blower housing, which reduces the size of the apparatus. The wall of the housing includes an opening through which the heater assembly is insertable into the housing. The heater assembly includes a mounting plate to close off the wall opening and to removably mount the heater assembly with the housing. The heater assembly preferably further includes an open coil electric heater, with a major dimension of the heater being oriented generally parallel to the direction of air flow in the blower housing.
In air conditioning apparatus having a cabinet containing a blower assembly, said blower assembly having an air blower for moving air through said cabinet in a predetermined direction and a housing in which said blower is located, wherein the improvement comprises an electric heater assembly projecting into said housing from a wall thereof in transverse relationship to said blower with respect to said predetermined direction, said heater assembly being removably mounted with said wall, said heater assembly having a major dimension and a minor dimension, said major dimension being generally parallel to said predetermined direction.
