Coleman Mach 48204 series. Heather assembly?

I have a Coleman Mach 48204 series, according to the dealer it should have the header assembly but I'm not sure.
(The same dealer CW told me I had a 13500 BTU's but it is15,000 BTUs...)
The question is how can I tell if I do have it? and I'm if I don't have it how easy and expensive is to add one?

Thanks for your help.

Do you mean heat strip? I dont think it was offered in the bumper pull non-garage models. If you have a garage and a second A/C, you will have a second thermostat. Turn it on and run up the temp. The 2nd A/C should fire up and blow warm air. If not, open the cover with the single black plastic screw and see if the heat strip is unplugged. It will be obvious. IF so, plug it in and try again!

I had to reach up in there and plug mine in from the factory. FYI it had a dummy plastic plug i had to remove first

Yes that's what I meant heat strip. I do have a garage but only one AC unit.

Okay I checked and I don't have one.
My AC unit is prepped for one of these strips.
The questions are is it easy to install ? and is it worth it? Do I need a different thermostat? or is it the heating element the only thing that I need?

Thanks.

I dont see how it would work if you only have 1 thermostat. How would the t-stat differentiate between turning on the heat strip or the gas furnace?

What would the advantage be to installing one vs. a small heater? I use a Broan Big Heat when we have shore power. Its tiny and easy to store as well as doing a great job keeping the temp

I have the same questions....
We actually have three little ceramic space heaters that seems to do the work just fine. one for the garage one for the living room and one for our bedroom!
