Baxi Immersion Heater 95606986

The Baxi 95606986 is an upper immersion heater element used in unvented hot water cylinders. It provides a secondary or top-up heat source within the cylinder, heating the upper volume of stored water independently of the primary coil or heat pump. It is listed for use across a range of Baxi and Heatrae Sadia cylinder families.

• No hot water from the upper section of the cylinder while the lower element or primary heat source still works
• The immersion heater trips the consumer unit or RCD when switched on
• The overheat thermostat or thermal cut-out trips repeatedly and will not reset
• The element shows no continuity when tested with a multimeter
• Visible scale build-up, corrosion or water weeping around the element head or gasket

• Confirm the cylinder make, model and capacity against the fit list above
• Check whether the cylinder uses an upper or lower immersion heater, as the two are not interchangeable
• Verify the element rating and thread against the manufacturer's parts list for your cylinder
• Isolate the electrical supply and drain the cylinder before removing the old element
