A PTAC is a through-the-wall unit with an indoor section (evaporator, fan, filter) and an outdoor section (compressor, condenser, fan), separated by insulation. It is installed in a wall/under-window opening of a standard 42x16 inch size. Faults: an aging compressor, low refrigerant, a clogged drain pan (water leaking onto the carpet!), dirty filters, a musty smell, and loud noise.

Frequently Asked Questions about PTAC

The PTAC in room 305 is dripping water onto the carpet, what is the fix?

A clogged drain pan — fix it immediately! Call 16062 and a technician will arrive within 4 hours to clear the blockage and repair the drain hose before the carpet is damaged.

Do you service the Carrier 42PTAC?

Yes — Carrier is one of our specialties. Genuine parts plus a 6-month warranty.

The compressor is very loud and the guest is complaining?

Usually the compressor is failing or the rubber mounts are worn. An inspection will determine it. The fix may be a compressor replacement or a full unit replacement if it is 10+ years old.

What is the service life?

7-12 years in hotels (heavy 24/7 use). The compressor lasts 5-8 years, the fan motor 6-10 years.

Is there a maintenance contract for all PTAC units in the hotel?

Yes — a hotel PTAC contract with filter replacement, UV-C cleaning, drain pan checks, and a warranty. Call 16062.
