The Kidde 1060-000 Anti-Condensation Heater keeps moisture from building up inside fire alarm enclosures and panel cabinets. In cold or humid environments, condensation on circuit boards and wiring connections leads to corrosion, false alarms, and premature equipment failure. This heater mounts inside the enclosure and maintains a stable internal temperature above the dew point, keeping electronics dry without requiring any additional ventilation modifications.
Built for the commercial installer
Designed for Kidde fire alarm system enclosures, the 1060-000 installs with a simple bracket mount inside the cabinet. It runs continuously at low wattage to maintain a consistent temperature differential, preventing condensation cycles during overnight temperature swings and seasonal humidity changes. Suitable for mechanical rooms, parking structures, loading docks, and any location where enclosures are exposed to temperature extremes or high humidity.
Key features
- Prevents condensation damage: maintains enclosure temperature above the dew point to protect circuit boards, wiring, and contacts
- Bracket-mount design: secures inside Kidde fire alarm enclosures with standard mounting hardware
- Continuous low-wattage operation: runs constantly to prevent moisture cycling without significant power draw
- Extends equipment life: reduces corrosion-related service calls and premature component failures in humid or cold environments
Typical applications
Mechanical rooms, parking garages, loading docks, exterior-mounted enclosures, cold storage facilities, and any commercial environment where fire alarm panels face condensation risk.
