AMANA 9,200 BTU PTAC AC w/ 2.5kW Heater R32 - APTC09J20040

CONDENSATE DISPERSION SYSTEM: Our condensate dispersion system removes condensate from the indoor cooling operation by throwing water directly onto the outdoor coil for rapid evaporation and increased cooling efficiencies. The slinger ring on the enhanced fan draws water up and into the fan blades. This water is then atomized and evaporated into the atmosphere through the condenser. Increased surface area from the coil allows more water to be evaporated on the sides of the coils and helps to minimize condensate run-off.

ROOM FREEZE PROTECTION: When the unit senses temperatures of 40°F or below, the unit activates the fan motor and either the electric resistance heater or the hydronic heater.

ZERO FLOOR CLEARANCE: The unit can be installed flush to a finished floor, if desired (please note that some accessories do not have zero clearance).

30-SECOND FAN-OFF DELAY: The fan continues to run 30 seconds after the compressor has stopped in either cooling or heat pump mode, and after electric heat has been turned off. This improves efficiency by dispersing the conditioned air on the coils into the room.

COMPRESSOR LOCK-IN: This feature helps prolong the life of the compressor by preventing short-cycling. When the compressor is switched from OFF to ON because room temperature has risen or fallen below the specified limit, it will remain on for at least 4 minutes.
If the temperature set-point is changed during these 4 minutes, the lock-in feature is overridden.

AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY HEAT: No more "my unit is not heating" complaints during the middle of the night. Heat pump units will automatically switch over to electric resistance heat if the heat pump compressor system fails or if the heating load is greater than the unit capacity.

HIDDEN VENTILATION CONTROL: The ventilation control lever is hidden from the occupant's view to allow you to manage ventilation requirements.

HIGH-PRESSURE SWITCH: Protects the unit from high pressure and damage to the unit, helping to ensure long unit life.

Maintenance Tips 

1. Clean Air Filters: Check and clean the air filters monthly to ensure proper airflow and efficiency. Replace them if necessary.
2. Coil Cleaning: Clean the evaporator and condenser coils annually to prevent dust buildup, which can reduce cooling performance.
3. Drain Maintenance: Ensure the condensate drain is clear to prevent water buildup and potential mold growth.
4. Inspect Refrigerant Lines: Check for any visible damage to refrigerant lines and ensure they are insulated properly.
5. Check Heater Function: Test the heating element periodically for proper function, and inspect for any signs of wear or damage.
