Maybe an X213 owner can chime in and explain how to check for an electric heat strip and how to make it work.

X2,
I added the electric heat strip to my AC unit. If the heat option was added, the left control nob, will have a position call "heat low" this is heat mode, low fan speed. Set the right nob to red. It takes a few minutes for you to notice any warmth. There is a lot of air movement, so it does not feel hot, but it is 6000 btu, and does a decent job keeping our htt warm. We also carry a small 1500 watt ceramic electric heater.
The furnace does require propane. Pending on the outside temps, you may consume a 20 pound tank in a couple days.
