From day one, every Amana brand product has been made with the same core philosophy: to provide customers with high-quality products that are reliable, meet their needs and last longer than the rest. And we keep that philosophy firmly in mind when we build our Amana brand Packaged Terminal Air Conditioners (PTACs). Whether you are in the hotel/hospitality industry or provide assisted living services, Amana brand PTACs are designed to provide your business with plain-and-simple product durability and advanced energy management features, while helping you to create the best indoor comfort possible.

R32 REFRIGERANT: With a GWP (Global Warming Potential) of 677, California compliant R32 refrigerant is our choice for Amana® brand PTACs. Available in every configuration of our PTAC, R32 refrigerant can provide up to 12% more efficiency than R410A refrigerant, lower lifetime emissions compared to R454B, and can use up to 40% less refrigerant charge than R410A.

QUIET WHITE ROOM FRONT: Our newly redesigned Quiet White front cover provides a striking balance between attractive styling and practical design. This cover provides distinctive contours and a modern appearance to enhance the character of even the most luxurious room.

100% RUN TESTED: All units are 100% run tested at our plant in Waller, Texas, including leak checks during manufacturing and prior to shipment at the warehouse.

7 5/8" UNIT FRONT DEPTH: Enhance valuable room space with our slim unit front, which has a sleek 75/8" depth, one of the shallowest silhouettes in the industry today. The front can be secured to the chassis with a hidden screw in order to inhibit guest tampering.

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.

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.

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.
