Full aircraft preheating is accomplished through electrical resistance heat in the form of thin pads and belts sized and shaped to fit various parts. The pads are surface mounted with a bonding sealant/adhesive. Belts are secured around the perimeter with cable ties. Heated items include, engine accessory/reduction gearboxes, fluids, batteries, and attached accessories. Power is routed to the heat elements through a dedicated wiring assembly with power indication and circuit overload protection. System is self-regulating through design. Heated components reach an average state of thermal equilibrium in approximately six hours.

This kit is not eligible for an 8130-3.
