RECTORSEAL 96506 Ks1 Kickstart Hard Start Kit by Rectorseal

I am a retired electrical lineman and I know how to safely work on electrical equipment. This part was simple to install. However, if you do not know how to safely work on electrical equipment I recommend you hire a professional. This solved the hard start issue on my 19 year old ac condenser. Hopefully I can get a few more years of service life out of it.

Local company wanted 550.00 Dollars to replace mine. The tech had a heart and told me to get this on Amazon. Disconnected 2 wires and attached the 2 new wires in less than 5 min. My unit is pushing 25 years old and it runs like a champ!

Great product just the relay did not work I had to use another one/ capacitor works great

This product is made in the USA, easy to install and worked as advertised. Eased the starting of my heat pump compressor.

I ordered this product and paid more for it assuming that it was made in the USA as indicated in the product picture. I had previously ordered a less expensive version and discovered that it was made in China. I did not want to install it and ordered one that I thought was made in the USA. Paid $15 more for the identical item. False advertising!

During Spring check up was told my capacitor was going bad and that besides a new capacitor I really needed a Kickstart Kit to prolong its life... For the Capacitor, hard start and one hours labor they wanted $533... Seemed atrocious and after looking at how to on You tube and looking at the Amazon prices all in all done -Quick Start, capacitor, and about 20 minutes labor I'm over $400 richer... Was so easy to install -you do need a couple of self tapping sheet metal screws -for some reason not included but so easy.

It works just as promised and was easy to install

Came home from work to a 90deg house (Phoenix). Looked into condenser unit and Kickstart cap was blown. Lasted a total of about 6 months. Easy to install and performed well when it worked, but was expecting it to last quite a bit longer.
