The manufacturer has obviously changed the heater as it has several rows of coils vs. the single coil that fit under the fins. How exactly do I replace this without risking breaking the cooper tubing attached to the fins? Actually need some detailed instructions. Whirlpool was of no help. And on the thermometer, is there a certain way these need to be positioned and/or attached after the heater is installed? :eek:
