Info & Guides

Description

When you're replacing an aging PTAC in a hotel or dorm, the wall opening sets the rules. The Friedrich 7,000 BTU ZoneAire Select PTAC with Electric Heat keeps the industry-standard 42-inch width, so it can take the place of older PTACs without reworking the wall.

Upkeep is where the ZoneAire Select saves your staff time. An internal diagnostic program runs factory tests and alerts maintenance to component or operating problems, while the modular design gives quick access to internal parts for repairs and cleaning. Washable filters keep airborne particles away from internal components, and a fresh air damper lets you bring in filtered outdoor air.

Key Features and Benefits of the Friedrich 7,000 BTU ZoneAire Select PTAC w/ Electric Heat

  • Cooling Capacity: You get 7,000 BTU of cooling and 350 CFM of airflow, sized to keep rooms up to 300 square feet comfortable without oversizing.
  • Electric Coil Heat: A 3.6 kW (3,650-watt) electric coil heater puts out 12,000 BTU of heat within minutes, so one appliance handles comfort all year.
  • Energy Efficiency: A 12 EER rating and a 585-watt, 2.7-amp maximum cooling draw help you hold down operating costs across many rooms.
  • R-32 Refrigerant: It operates in ambient temperatures from 53 to 114 degrees F, using a refrigerant with a low global warming potential.
  • Quiet Dual Motors: Separate indoor and outdoor permanently lubricated fan motors let the indoor fan run slower, keeping sound to a 53 dB maximum for resting guests.
  • Diamonblue Coil Protection: Diamonblue Advanced corrosion coating on the indoor and outdoor coils, plus aluminum outdoor endplates, helps the PTAC stand up to harsh outdoor environments.
  • LED Control Display: Electronic button controls with an LED display show the set point or room temperature, mode, and fan speed at a glance.
  • Thermostat Ready: A pop-out wiring module connects to a remote wall thermostat or an Exceptional Energy Management Thermostat, so you can adjust settings from a central system.
  • Freeze Protection: In auto heat mode, the heater starts on its own when an unoccupied room drops below 50 degrees F, protecting vacant rooms in cold weather.
  • Moisture Removal: It removes up to 1.7 pints of moisture per hour, so rooms feel less clammy during humid weather.
  • Temperature Monitoring: The PTAC checks room temperature every 9 minutes and adjusts its output to hold your set point without manual changes.

Plan Your Circuit and Wall Opening

The ZoneAire Select runs on 208-230 volts and connects through a 6-20P plug on a cord 6 feet long, so confirm a matching outlet sits within reach of the wall opening before install day. Heating pulls up to 15.9 amps, which is why this PTAC calls for a 20-amp branch circuit fuse. It carries cETLus certification, so it meets U.S. and Canadian electrical safety standards.

The chassis measures 42 x 21.5 x 16-Inches (L x W x H) and fits a 42.25 x 16.25-Inches (W x H) wall cut-out. It weighs 90 pounds, so plan the installation with that weight in mind.

Sylvane's Expert Take

If you manage hotel or dorm rooms up to 300 square feet in a place with real winters, this PTAC is built for year-round switching between cooling and heating. What stands out is the heat: 12,000 BTU of electric coil output is well above its 7,000 BTU cooling rating, so cold mornings are covered. Pay most attention to the 53 dB noise ceiling and the internal diagnostics, which speed up repairs. For quiet rooms you can refit without cutting new openings, the ZoneAire Select is a strong match.
