This is a wall-sleeve air conditioner and electric heater built for coastal hotel rooms, motels, or multi-family units where salt-air corrosion is a real concern and central ductwork isn't available. It's built for property managers and owners who need self-contained, per-room climate control with added corrosion protection.
This DRY094J35CXXX chassis is an Amana PTAC (Packaged Terminal Air Conditioner) with a single-stage 3.7 kW electric heat strip, built on the R-32 refrigerant platform with Enhanced Dehumidification. The feature code C designation adds seacoast corrosion protection, intended for coastal hospitality and residential properties exposed to salt air. All units in this family meet or exceed ASHRAE 90.1. 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: 265V. Operating range 239V–292V minimum/maximum per Amana's published voltage limits for 265V models.
- Total amps with heater engaged: 14.2A. MCA: 17.9A. MOP: 20A.
- Power cord/plug: NEMA 7-20P.
- Wall Sleeve is NOT included and must be ordered separately (e.g., Amana WS900E, WS900QW, or WS900SC seacoast series).
- Exterior Architectural Grille is NOT included and must be ordered separately (SGK, AGK, or PGK series).
- This 265V unit requires an Amana sub-base (PTSB4**E series) or the PTPWHWK4 hard-wire kit with PSHW04A disconnect switch — neither is included.
- Not compatible with 115V circuits.
- Not compatible with 230/208V circuits — see the DRY093J chassis for the 230/208V version of this unit.
- Not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom wall sleeve openings.
Key Benefits

Compatibility & Fitment
- Compatible with 265V dedicated circuits via NEMA 7-20P plug, when paired with an Amana sub-base (PTSB4**E series) or PTPWHWK4 hard-wire kit with PSHW04A disconnect.
- Fits industry-standard 42 in x 16-1/16 in wall sleeve openings, including the Amana WS900E, WS900QW, and WS900SC seacoast sleeve series.
- Not compatible with 115V circuits.
- Not compatible with 230/208V circuits — that voltage is served by the sibling chassis DRY093J, not this model.
- Wall Sleeve NOT included — must be purchased separately.
- Exterior Architectural Grille NOT included — must be purchased separately.
- Not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom-depth sleeve openings.

FAQ
Is the wall sleeve included with this unit?
No. The wall sleeve is sold separately. This unit fits the industry-standard 42 in x 16-1/16 in wall sleeve opening (Amana WS900E, WS900QW, or WS900SC seacoast sleeve series), but you must order a sleeve independently.
What breaker size and plug type does this unit require?
This 265V configuration with the 3.7 kW electric heat strip has a Minimum Circuit Ampacity (MCA) of 17.9A and a Maximum Overcurrent Protection (MOP) of 20A. It ships with a NEMA 7-20P power cord.
Can this be hardwired for 265V commercial applications?
Yes. All 265V Amana PTAC models require either an Amana brand sub-base (PTSB4**E series) or the PTPWHWK4 hard-wire kit paired with the PSHW04A disconnect switch. Neither is included with the chassis. This unit does not use an LCDI power cord, since the LCDI cord design applies only to units rated under 250V.
Does this require a licensed electrician or HVAC professional to install and keep the warranty valid?
265V units involve dedicated circuit wiring, a sub-base or hard-wire disconnect, and factory-installed cartridge-style time-delay fuses. Installation should follow NEC electrical code and local permitting requirements. Refer to the warranty documentation in the Resources tab for the manufacturer's specific installation conditions.
Will this fit a standard 42-inch by 16-inch wall sleeve opening?
Yes. This chassis is designed for the industry-standard 42 in wide x 16-1/16 in high wall sleeve opening. It is not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom sleeve openings.
