This HotShot Heater Kit is designed for use on the front or back of the DirecTV Slimline Dish and AT&T Satellite Television Dishes, but works on other 39″ and larger dishes as well.
We recommend this Hot Shot model for use on the following dish antennas:
- DirecTV AU9-S Slimline 5-Phase
- DirecTV AT9 5-Phase
- DirecTV 66E International
- HughesNet HN74 Raven (Metal Dish)
- HughesNet HN74 Prodelin (Metal Dish)
- WildBlue (Metal Dish)
The OPTIONAL ARM HEATING ELEMENT is included with this kit, as is a larger power supply to power it accordingly! If you do not need or want the ARM ELEMENT than you should purchase the V3 Kit which is available here for less $$.
The HotShot Satellite Dish Heater will keep snow and ice from collecting on your dish and can also reduce rain fade by up to 75%. HotShot heater kits are the preferred heating system of most satellite television installers as they can be powered over an existing spare coaxial cable run.
- Simply peel-n-stick the Hot Shot element to the front or back of your dish (depending upon the application).
- Peel-n-stick the Hot Shot Arm Element on the arm of the dish that goes out to the LNBFs.
- Mount the transformer in a dry environment next to a 110v electrical outlet.
- Run the included 100′ of low-voltage cable to the element on your dish and attach accordingly.
- Plug the arm element into the remaining plug on the main element.
- Plug in the transformer and your dish will be protected from snow and ice buildup via the thermostatically-controlled heating element.
The HotShot heating element has an automatic thermostat that turns on just above freezing temperatures and off when the dish surface heats up. The HotShot heating element is an exclusive patented invention that has been offered for over 13 years and is used by many thousands of dish owners in snowy climates to aid reception when the weather gets testy.
