This is a wall-sleeve heat pump system for hotel rooms, apartments, or additions where central ductwork isn't available. It's built for property managers and electricians handling 265V commercial circuits who need self-contained, per-room heating and cooling.
The HEH094J35AXXX is a 265V packaged terminal heat pump built for hospitality and multi-family properties running dedicated commercial electrical service. It combines a heat pump compressor rated at 13 EER / 3.8 COP with a 3.7 kW electric heat strip for supplemental heating below the heat pump's balance point. 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.
Critical Fit & Power Requirements
- Wall sleeve opening: Standard 42 in wide x 16-1/16 in high (WS900E / WS900QW series)
- Voltage: 265V — minimum 239V / maximum 292V operating range
- Total Amps (with 3.7 kW heat installed): 14.2A; MCA 17.9A; MOP (breaker size) 20A
- NEMA Plug Type: 7-20P power cord
- Wall Sleeve is NOT included — sold separately.
- Exterior Architectural Grille is NOT included — sold separately.
- This 265V unit requires an Amana sub-base (PTSB4**E series) or hard-wire kit PTPWHWK4 with disconnect PSHW04A — neither is included with the chassis
- Not compatible with 115V circuits
- Not compatible with 230/208V circuits — for that voltage class, see the sibling chassis HEH093J
- Not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom sleeve openings
On 265V hospitality retrofits, techs sometimes reuse an existing 230/208V sub-base because it "looks the same" — it doesn't carry the same fuse rating or receptacle configuration, and mismatching it against this unit's 7-20P plug and cartridge-style time-delay fuses risks a nuisance trip or worse, a fire at the receptacle. Confirm the sub-base model plate against the Amana PTSB4**E series spec sheet, or wire directly through the PTPWHWK4 hard-wire kit with a PSHW04A disconnect if no sub-base is present. Check the wall sleeve pitch with a torpedo level — 1/4 bubble pitched toward the exterior — before setting the chassis, so condensate drains outside rather than tracking back into the drywall cavity. Document the fuse and breaker sizing (17.9A MCA / 20A MOP) on the unit's electrical placard per NEC Article 440 for future service techs, and log it in the property's PM maintenance file.
Key Benefits
- Heat pump operation delivers 8,300 BTU/h of heating from the compressor before the electric heat strip engages, reducing electric-resistance runtime in mild climates
- 3.7 kW backup heat strip provides 12,600 BTU/h of supplemental heating capacity when outdoor temperatures drop below the heat pump's effective range
- Rated dehumidification of 2 pints/hour supports guest-room comfort in humid climates
- Fresh-air ventilation adjustable from 65-95 CFM for make-up air in occupied spaces
- 13 EER and 3.8 COP ratings support ASHRAE 90.1 compliance for commercial specification
- R-32 refrigerant charge, per manufacturer catalog note

FAQ
Is the wall sleeve included with this unit?
No. The wall sleeve is sold separately. This unit fits the industry-standard 42-inch by 16-1/16-inch sleeve opening (WS900E/WS900QW series), but the sleeve and exterior grille are not included with the chassis.
What breaker size and plug type does this unit require?
With the 3.7 kW electric heat strip installed, this unit requires an MCA of 17.9A and a 20A breaker (MOP), with a 7-20P power cord and plug configuration. This is a 265V circuit.
Can this be hardwired for 265V commercial applications?
Yes. All 265V models must use an Amana sub-base (PTSB4**E series) for cord-and-plug connection, or a hard-wire kit (PTPWHWK4) with disconnect switch (PSHW04A) for direct hardwiring. Neither is included with this unit. This model ships with factory-installed cartridge-style time-delay fuses for overcurrent protection.
Does this require a licensed electrician or HVAC professional to install and keep the warranty valid?
265V circuits and sub-base/hard-wire kit installation should be performed by a licensed electrician per NEC code. [NEEDS VERIFICATION - exact warranty installation requirements are detailed in the manufacturer warranty document in the Resources tab].
Will this fit a standard 42-inch by 16-inch wall sleeve opening?
Yes. This chassis is designed for the industry-standard 42-inch wide by 16-1/16-inch high sleeve opening. It is not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom sleeve dimensions.
