The PSU21-4 8-Inch Surface Element Kit is a universal/multi-brand electric range surface element designed to provide heat to a cooking zone on the top of compatible electric ranges. This replacement surface element is an Alltemp universal component with an 8-inch diameter and 2,100-watt rating. AMRE Supply identifies the PS-21-4 as an Alltemp Universal range coil surface element with looped ends and an 8-inch diameter.

Appliance Kingdom supplies appliance replacement parts to customers across Canada, serving homeowners, landlords, property managers, and professional appliance technicians. Before ordering, verify the existing element's size, wattage, terminal configuration, and appliance model to ensure compatibility.

What Does the PSU21-4 Surface Element Do?

The surface element is the heating component located on top of an electric range. When the range control is activated, the element converts electrical energy into heat for cooking.

The PSU21-4 is an 8-inch, 2,100-watt coil element intended for compatible electric range applications. Its specifications are important because the replacement element must match the appliance's electrical requirements and physical connection configuration.

Using the correct wattage, diameter, and terminal configuration helps ensure proper heating performance and reliable operation.

Common Symptoms of a Failed Surface Element

A defective or damaged surface element can cause cooking problems such as:

  • Surface element does not heat

  • Element heats unevenly

  • Element does not reach the expected cooking temperature

  • Element has visible damage or breaks

  • Cooking takes significantly longer than normal

  • Surface burner intermittently stops heating

The PSU21-4 is specifically described as a potential repair solution when the range element does not heat.

Will Replacing the Surface Element Fix My Range?

If the surface element itself has failed, replacing it can restore heating to the affected cooking zone.

However, a surface element that does not heat can also be caused by problems elsewhere in the range, such as the control switch, wiring, terminal connection, or other electrical components. If the element has not been diagnosed, inspect the appliance and electrical connections before ordering a replacement.

Compatibility & Ordering Guidance

The PSU21-4 is an 8-inch, 2,100-watt universal/multi-brand coil surface element intended for compatible electric ranges. AMRE Supply identifies the Alltemp PS-21-4 as an 8-inch, 2,100-watt range coil surface element with looped ends.

Always verify your appliance's complete model number and compare the following specifications before ordering:

  • Element diameter

  • Wattage

  • Voltage

  • Terminal or connection style

  • Physical configuration

  • Appliance model requirements

Do not rely solely on appearance because similarly sized surface elements can have different electrical ratings or connection configurations.

Replaces Part Numbers

Approved-source information confirms the PS-21-4/PSU21-4 family is associated with a number of replacement and cross-reference numbers. AMRE Supply identifies 4W8221 as a part that uses PS-21-4 and states that 4W8221 has subsequently been replaced by APU38-821.

Because cross-reference information can vary by manufacturer and application, verify the specific replacement number against your appliance model before ordering.
