This is a wall-sleeve air conditioner and electric-heat unit for hotel rooms, apartments, or additions where central ductwork isn't available. It's built for property managers and contractors who need self-contained, per-room climate control on a 265V commercial electrical circuit.
The PTC074J35AXXX is a standard-model PTAC built for hospitality rooms, additions, and multi-family units where a self-contained, per-room system replaces central ductwork. This chassis is commonly specified in hotel renovation and new-construction projects where AHRI-matched sleeve and chassis pairings are required for consistent performance across a property. 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 heater): 14.2A; MCA 17.9A; MOP 20A
- NEMA plug type: 7-20P (requires matching 7-20R receptacle)
- Wall Sleeve is NOT included — sold separately.
- Exterior Architectural Grille is NOT included — sold separately.
- Required sub-base or hardwire kit is NOT included: this 265V unit must use an Amana PTSB4**E sub-base, or the PTPWHWK4 hardwire kit with PSHW04A disconnect switch, both sold separately.
- Not compatible with 115V circuits.
- Not compatible with 230/208V circuits — the 230/208V equivalent chassis is model PTC073J.
- Not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom sleeve openings — verify against the framing diagram before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
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-inch by 16-1/16-inch wall sleeve opening (WS900E / WS900QW series), but you need to order the sleeve and exterior grille as separate line items.
What breaker size and plug type does this unit require?
This 265V configuration with the 3.7 kW heater has an MCA of 17.9A and requires a 20A MOP (maximum overcurrent protection). It ships with a factory-installed 7-20P power cord, which requires a matching NEMA 7-20R receptacle.
Can this be hardwired for 265V commercial applications?
Yes. All 265V Amana PTAC models must use either an Amana PTSB4**E sub-base or the PTPWHWK4 hardwire kit paired with the PSHW04A disconnect switch. Both are sold separately and are required for 265V installations — this unit is not rated for 115V or 230/208V circuits.
Does this require a licensed electrician or HVAC professional to install and keep the warranty valid?
265V installations involve a dedicated sub-base or hardwire kit with a disconnect switch, and should be installed by a licensed electrician per NEC requirements. Refer to the Resources tab for the full manufacturer warranty terms and any installer requirements.
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 fit for custom or non-standard sleeve dimensions without verifying the rough opening against the framing diagram.
