Abstract
An electric heater support and mounting assembly is described for reducing or substantially eliminating noise resulting from the vibration in the heating element. The support and mounting assembly comprises a housing having a plurality of unique openings for receiving a plurality of arms extending from a support plate. The openings firmly engage the arms so as to prevent rattling while enabling the arms to move within the opening to accommodate thermal expansion of the support plate.
