Abstract

A lateral heating or air conditioning unit has an electric heating device downstream of the heater core, spaced from it and in the mouth of the hot passage. Separate blend doors are disposed in each of the hot and cold passages. The electric heater device is flush with the opening of the hot air passageway into the mixing chamber so as to prevent air flow disturbances.
