This is a wall-sleeve heat pump system for hotel rooms, apartments, additions, or coastal properties where central ductwork isn't available. It's built for property managers and homeowners who need self-contained, per-room heating and cooling with added protection against salt-air corrosion.
This PTHP is built on the Amana HEH chassis, combining a heat pump compressor with 3.5/3.0 kW electric backup heat for cold-weather performance below the heat pump's effective range. It is suited to hospitality corridors, additions, and coastal properties where the "C" feature code corrosion-protection package extends service life against salt-air exposure. All units 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: industry-standard 42 in wide x 16-1/16 in high (rough framing opening approximately 42-1/4 in wide x 16-1/4 in minimum high).
- Voltage: 230/208V. Amperage with electric heat: 15.5/14.1A total; MCA 19.5A; MOP 20A.
- Power cord/plug: 6-20P, for a NEMA 6-20R receptacle, factory-installed with LCDI device per UL 484 (applies to all units under 250V).
- Wall Sleeve is NOT included — order separately (e.g., Amana WS900E, WS900QW, or WS900SC for seacoast triple protection).
- Exterior Architectural Grille is NOT included — order separately (SGK, AGK, or PGK series).
- Not compatible with 115V circuits.
- Not compatible with 265V hardwire-only installations — that configuration is sold as the separate commercial sibling model HEH094J, which requires an Amana sub-base or hard-wire kit (sold separately).
- Not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom sleeve openings — verify dimensions before ordering.
Wall sleeve pitch is the single most common callback on PTHP installs. The friction point: installers who set the sleeve dead level, or pitch it inward, trap condensate against the drywall and framing instead of routing it outdoors. Prevent it by pitching the sleeve 1/4 bubble toward the exterior wall, confirmed with a torpedo level set lengthwise on the sleeve floor before final fastening — this keeps condensate draining out through the base pan rather than wicking into the sill plate or insulation. On seacoast installs, pair this with the WS900SC triple-protected sleeve, not a standard WS900E, since salt-laden moisture accelerates corrosion at any point where drainage stalls. Document the pitch check on the property's install record — many hospitality property management standards require photographic proof of sleeve pitch before final PTAC/PTHP sign-off.
- Heat pump compressor with 3.9 COP at rated conditions reduces electric heat strip run time in shoulder-season weather compared to strip-heat-only PTAC units.
- Dehumidification rated at 2 pints/hr for supplemental moisture control in humid climates.
- Fresh air ventilation adjustable from 65-95 CFM for make-up air in tightly sealed rooms.
- Seacoast corrosion-protection package (feature code C) targets coastal and high-humidity installs where standard-coil units degrade faster.
- Single-stage 3.5/3.0 kW electric heat backs up the heat pump below its effective heating range.
- CFM ratings: 290/264 wet, 312/312 dry (high/low), for airflow planning against room size.

FAQ
Is the wall sleeve included with this unit?
No. The wall sleeve is sold separately. This unit fits an industry-standard 42 in wide x 16-1/16 in high sleeve opening (e.g., Amana WS900E, WS900QW, or WS900SC for seacoast environments). The exterior architectural grille is also sold separately.
What breaker size and plug type does this unit require?
With the 3.5/3.0 kW electric heat strip installed, this unit requires a Minimum Circuit Ampacity (MCA) of 19.5A, a Maximum Overcurrent Protection (MOP) of 20A, and ships with a factory-installed 6-20P power cord for a NEMA 6-20R receptacle on a 230/208V circuit.
Can this be hardwired for 265V commercial applications?
No. This model is a 230/208V unit and is not rated for 265V operation. The 265V commercial version of this chassis is sold as model HEH094J, which requires an Amana sub-base (PTSB4**E series) or hard-wire kit PTPWHWK4 with disconnect switch PSHW04A, sold separately.
Does this require a licensed electrician or HVAC professional to install and keep the warranty valid?
Manufacturer warranty terms and installation requirements are detailed in the warranty documentation. Refer to the "Resources (System Manuals and Warranty)" Tab above for the full terms before installation.
Will this fit a standard 42-inch by 16-inch wall sleeve opening?
Yes. This chassis is designed for the industry-standard 42 in x 16-1/16 in wall sleeve opening. It is not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom sleeve openings without verifying dimensions first.
