Hoskins also builds a complete heater, a galvanized box with the element, blower, thermostat and cord already assembled, which is a different line at a much higher price. If the housing on yours is sound and only the element has gone, this is what you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDetail\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRating: 700W, 240V, approximately 2.9 A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTermination: bare leads for a hard wired connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition: frame mounted, away from the tank wall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich thermostat\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eElements in the A and AA family pair with the small thermostat.

A 240 volt element on a 120 volt circuit produces about a quarter of its rating and will not hold a tank open in a cold snap. A 120 volt element on 240 volts fails outright. Read the plate on the element you are pulling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCircuit notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHoskins asks for #8 copper back to the panel, a ground rod driven eight feet at the unit, and a GFCI breaker wherever code calls for one. Their installation sheet carries a conductor sizing table for runs out to 400 feet on 115 to 120 volt service.
