This is a wall-sleeve air conditioner and electric heater for hotel rooms, apartments, or additions where central ductwork isn't available. It's built for property managers and homeowners who need self-contained, per-room cooling and heating with a standard 230/208V circuit.
The DRY093J35AXXX is an R-32 PTAC unit from Amana's enhanced dehumidification J-series, built for hospitality rooms, additions, and multifamily units that need standalone, per-room comfort control. It meets or exceeds ASHRAE 90.1 efficiency standards. Note: If you would like to review the manufacturer Product Specifications, Warranty, Brochure, etc., for this system, please refer to the "Resources (System Manuals and Warranty)" Tab above on this page.
- Wall sleeve opening: Standard 42 in wide x 16-1/16 in high (industry-standard PTAC sleeve size)
- Voltage: 230/208V
- Amperage with heater installed: 15.5/14.1A total amps; MCA 19.5A; MOP 20A
- NEMA plug type: 6-20P (factory-installed power cord)
- Wall Sleeve is NOT included and must be purchased separately.
- Exterior Architectural Grille is NOT included and must be purchased separately.
- Not compatible with 115V circuits
- Not compatible with 265V hardwire/sub-base setups — the 265V commercial version of this chassis is sold as model DRY094J
- Not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom sleeve openings — verify dimensions against your existing sleeve before ordering
The most common callback on PTAC installs isn't the electrical — it's water intrusion around the sleeve. When you set the wall sleeve for this chassis, pitch it 1/4 bubble toward the outside wall using a torpedo level; a level or reverse-pitched sleeve pushes condensate back into the wall cavity instead of draining outdoors, which leads to drywall rot and mold behind the unit months after the guest complaints stop. Confirm the sleeve extends a minimum of 1/4 in beyond the exterior wall face before you seal the rough opening. This matches Amana's framing guidance for the WS900 series and is standard practice under most property management preventive-maintenance checklists — don't skip the level check because the sleeve "looks" square.

FAQ
Is the wall sleeve included with this unit?
No. The wall sleeve is sold separately. This unit is designed to fit the industry-standard 42 in wide x 16-1/16 in high wall sleeve opening (e.g., WS900E / WS900QW series), but the sleeve itself must be purchased separately.
What breaker size and plug type does this unit require?
This configuration ships with a 6-20P power cord for 230/208V circuits. With the 3.5/3.0 kW electric heat installed, the minimum circuit ampacity (MCA) is 19.5A and the maximum overcurrent protection (MOP) is 20A, so it requires a dedicated 20A, 230/208V circuit.
Can this be hardwired for 265V commercial applications?
No. This is a 230/208V model with a factory-installed 6-20P power cord. It is not rated for 265V and should not be paired with a 265V sub-base or hard-wire kit. The 265V commercial version of this chassis is sold as model DRY094J.
Does this require a licensed electrician or HVAC professional to install and keep the warranty valid?
Amana's warranty terms and installation requirements are detailed in the manufacturer warranty document. Refer to the Resources (System Manuals and Warranty) tab above for the exact language on qualified-installer requirements.
Will this fit a standard 42-inch by 16-inch wall sleeve opening?
Yes. This chassis is built to the industry-standard 42 in x 16-1/16 in wall sleeve dimension. It is not a fit for non-standard or custom sleeve openings without verifying dimensions first.
