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 commercial installers who need self-contained, per-room climate control on a 265V electrical circuit.
The PTC074J25AXXX is a 265V packaged terminal air conditioner with a 2.5 kW electric heat strip, built for hospitality corridors, additions, and multi-unit properties where a dedicated 265V circuit is already in place. Amana PTAC chassis are evaluated under AHRI-referenced test procedures and meet or exceed ASHRAE 90.1 efficiency requirements. 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 family)
- Voltage: 265V, operating range 239V minimum to 292V maximum
- Total heat amps: 9.7A; MCA: 12.2A; MOP (fuse size): 15A time-delay, cartridge-style, factory-installed
- Power cord: 7-20P plug configuration
- Wall Sleeve is NOT included and must be ordered separately.
- Exterior Architectural Grille is NOT included and must be ordered separately.
- Requires an Amana PTSB4**E sub-base or PTPWHWK4 hardwire kit with PSHW04A disconnect switch — neither is included with this chassis.
- Not compatible with 115V circuits
- Not compatible with 230/208V circuits — for that voltage class, the correct chassis is the sibling model PTC073J
- Not a drop-in replacement for non-standard or custom sleeve openings
Key Benefits

FAQ
Is the wall sleeve included with this unit?
No. The wall sleeve is sold separately. This unit fits the industry-standard 42 in wide x 16-1/16 in high sleeve opening (WS900E / WS900QW family).
What breaker size and plug type does this unit require?
With the 2.5 kW electric heat installed, this unit has an MCA of 12.2A and requires a 15A time-delay fuse overcurrent device (MOP). It ships with a 7-20P power cord for a 265V circuit.
Can this be hardwired for 265V commercial applications?
Yes. All 265V models must use an Amana brand sub-base (PTSB4**E series) or the PTPWHWK4 hardwire kit with PSHW04A disconnect switch. Both are sold separately from the chassis.
Does this require a licensed electrician or HVAC professional to install and keep the warranty valid?
265V circuits fall outside standard household wiring and require a qualified electrician for sub-base or hardwire kit installation. Refer to the warranty documentation in the Resources tab for exact 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 in x 16-1/16 in wall sleeve opening. It is not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom sleeve openings.
