Description
York OEM Crankcase Heater — S1-025-49809-000
The York S1-025-49809-000 is a genuine OEM crankcase heater engineered to protect compressor integrity in York HVAC systems. By maintaining oil temperature during compressor off-cycles, this heater prevents refrigerant from migrating into and diluting the compressor oil — a leading cause of premature compressor failure and costly system downtime.
Product Overview
Crankcase heaters are a critical line of defense in refrigeration and air conditioning systems. When a system shuts down, refrigerant can condense and absorb into the compressor oil. Upon restart, this refrigerant-saturated oil can cause slugging, oil foaming, and bearing damage. The York S1-025-49809-000 keeps the crankcase warm enough to drive off refrigerant and maintain proper oil viscosity, ensuring reliable startups and extended compressor life.
