This is a wall-sleeve air conditioner and electric-heat unit built for hotel rooms, apartments, or additions where central ductwork isn't an option — and this particular chassis carries factory corrosion protection for coastal or high-humidity properties. It's suited to property managers and homeowners near seacoast environments who need self-contained, per-room climate control that holds up to salt-air exposure.
The PTC123J35CXXX is a standard-cooler PTAC (Packaged Terminal Air Conditioner) with electric resistance heat, built on the Amana PTC chassis and finished with factory seacoast corrosion protection (Feature Code C) for coastal hotels, condos, and rental properties where salt air accelerates coil and cabinet corrosion. This unit meets or exceeds ASHRAE 90.1 efficiency standards. 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 dimensions: Standard 42 in wide x 16-1/16 in high (industry-standard opening) — Wall Sleeve NOT included, sold separately.
- Exterior Architectural Grille: NOT included, sold separately.
- Voltage: 230/208V. Amperage (with 3.5/3.0 kW heater installed): 15.5/14.1A total; MCA 19.5A; MOP 20A.
- NEMA Plug Type: 6-20P power cord, ships with LCDI device per UL 484 (applies to all units under 250V).
- Not compatible with 115V circuits.
- Not for 265V hardwire applications. The 265V commercial sibling is chassis PTC124J, which requires the Amana sub-base PTSB4**E or hard-wire kit PTPWHWK4 with disconnect switch PSHW04A — none of that hardware applies to or is included with this 230/208V unit.
- Not a drop-in replacement for non-standard sleeve openings outside the 42 in x 16-1/16 in standard.
- Seacoast corrosion protection on coil and cabinet components for coastal or high-humidity installations.
- 1.7 pints/hr dehumidification at rated conditions.
- 65 CFM fresh-air (vent) intake for make-up air in tightly sealed guest rooms.
- EER of 11.4 (230V) / 11.5 (208V) for per-room cooling efficiency.
- R-32 refrigerant.
- Single-stage 3.5/3.0 kW electric heat strip backup for shoulder-season and cold-climate supplemental heat.

- Compatible with 230/208V circuits via NEMA 6-20P/6-20R plug and receptacle configuration.
- Fits standard 42-inch x 16-1/16-inch wall sleeve openings (e.g., WS900E, WS900QW, and compatible sleeve series).
- Wall Sleeve NOT included — order separately.
- Exterior Architectural Grille NOT included — order separately (SGK, AGK, or PGK series).
- Not compatible with 115V circuits.
- Not suitable for 265V hardwire-only applications — that requirement belongs to the separate PTC124J commercial chassis with its own required sub-base or hard-wire kit.
- Not a drop-in fit for non-standard or custom sleeve openings.

Frequently Asked Questions
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 sleeve opening (e.g., WS900E/WS900QW series), but the sleeve and exterior architectural grille both ship separately from the PTAC chassis.
What breaker size and plug type does this unit require?
This 230/208V configuration with the 3.5/3.0 kW heater requires an MCA of 19.5A and a maximum overcurrent protection (MOP) of 20A, with a NEMA 6-20P power cord and matching 6-20R receptacle.
Can this be hardwired for 265V commercial applications?
No. This unit is rated 230/208V, not 265V. The 265V commercial sibling chassis (PTC124J) is the model that supports hardwiring, and only with the Amana sub-base PTSB4**E or hard-wire kit PTPWHWK4 with disconnect switch PSHW04A. Do not attempt to hardwire this 230/208V model.
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 dimensions.
Does this require a licensed electrician or HVAC professional to install and keep the warranty valid?
[NEEDS VERIFICATION] — installer licensing requirements for warranty validity are not specified in the provided source files. Refer to the warranty document in the Resources tab for exact installation requirements.
