Trane HTR15179 Crankcase Heater Overview
The Trane HTR15179 is a genuine OEM crankcase heater (CCH) engineered to protect compressor oil from refrigerant migration during off-cycle periods. By maintaining oil temperature, this heater helps prevent liquid refrigerant from diluting the compressor lubricant — a leading cause of compressor wear and premature failure.
