Info & Guides

Description

Hotel guests judge a room's PTAC by whether it keeps up and whether it keeps them awake. The Friedrich ZoneAire Premier PTAC Electric Heat line handles both with a 2-motor design that lets the indoor fan run slower while the outdoor motor does the heavy work. You get room-by-room comfort control for hotels and dorms.

The ZoneAire Premier is also built for maintenance crews. Stainless steel parts and a powder-coated finish resist rust and corrosion. A modular layout gives you direct access to components. If a property has dozens of rooms, that cuts the time each service call takes.

Key Features and Benefits of the Friedrich 14,700 BTU ZoneAire Premier PTAC Electric Heat

  • Cooling Capacity: Puts out 14,700 BTU of cooling and 341 CFM of airflow, enough to keep rooms up to 800 square feet comfortable.
  • Electric Coil Heat: A 5,000-watt electric coil heater on a 30-amp branch circuit lets each room handle both seasons from one appliance.
  • Refrigerant Type: R-32 has low global warming potential and operates in temperatures from 64 to 115 degrees F.
  • 2-Motor Design: Separate indoor and outdoor motors let the indoor fan run slower, so the maximum noise level stays at 53 dB for sleeping guests.
  • Built-In Dehumidification: Removes up to 3.17 pints of moisture per hour, so rooms feel less clammy during humid weather.
  • Electronic Controls: Digital electronic controls let you set temperature, mode, and fan speed, and the system connects to a hotel energy management system for remote staff control.
  • Efficiency Rating: A 10.4 EER on the 208-230V model, which rises to 11.6 when linked to an energy management system, helps you lower operating costs across many rooms.
  • Stainless Steel Parts: Stainless steel components and a powder-coated finish resist rust and corrosion, which helps the PTAC hold up through years of outdoor exposure.
  • Fan-Only Mode: Fan-Only Mode moves air without heating or cooling, and the adjustable fresh air outlet lets filtered outdoor air into the room.
  • cETLus Certified: Both models carry cETLus certification, confirming they meet North American electrical safety standards for commercial installations.
  • Size and Weight: Measures 42 x 13.75 x 16-Inches (L x W x H) and weighs 114.7 pounds, so plan for a 42.25 x 16.25-inch wall cut-out.

Choose Your Voltage: 208-230V or 265V

Your building's electrical service determines whether you need 208-230V or 265V.

  • 208-230V Model PDE15K3SGR3: This model runs through a 6-30P plug on a 6-foot cord and draws up to 6.5 amps and 1,420 watts when cooling. Its electric heat produces 11,700 BTU at 21.8 amps, and it carries AHRI certification.
  • 265V Model PDE15R3SGR3: This model is rated for 260-280 volts and runs through a 7-20P plug on a 2.3-foot cord. It draws up to 5.3 amps and 1,400 watts when cooling, and its electric heat ranges from 8,300 to 17,000 BTU at 18.9 amps. Adjustable louvers let you aim the airflow.

Sylvane's Expert Take

If you manage a hotel or dormitory with rooms up to 800 square feet, the ZoneAire Premier line gives you room-level heating and cooling that stays quiet enough for overnight guests. Your building decides the voltage choice, so check your existing outlets before ordering, because the 6-30P and 7-20P plugs are not interchangeable. The features that matter most are the 2-motor design and the 3.17-pint hourly moisture removal. For properties replacing aging PTACs, it keeps guests comfortable and front-desk complaints down.

    Very satisfied

    Just installed a few weeks ago in NYC apartment so I've only used the heat mode. Very quiet compared to my old GE model ptac. Thermostat and auto cycle make for very pleasant heat cycle.
