Key Features and Benefits of the Amana 17,000 BTU Commercial Window Air Conditioner Heat Pump

• Powerful Heating and Cooling: Switch seamlessly between 17,300 BTU cooling, 14,300 BTU heat-pump heating, and 11,000 BTU electric backup heat to maintain comfort in every season.
• Digital Control Panel: Dial in precise temperature settings quickly, reducing guesswork for staff and guests.
• Service-Ready Chassis: A slide-out design allows technicians to remove the inner chassis without disturbing the outer sleeve, reducing downtime during inspections or repairs.
• Added Moisture Removal: In addition to the three fan speeds, this model also dehumidifies the room it's installed in, pulling up to 5.1 pints of moisture per hour from the air. Condensate is easily drained through the unit's outlet spout.
• Versatile Mounting: The Amana AH183J35AA can be installed through a standard window opening or wall sleeve (30 x 17 3/8-inch minimum opening). The solid-bottom case seals tightly against interior walls for a cleaner, more secure fit.
• R-32 Efficiency: This next-generation refrigerant offers a 65 percent lower global warming potential than older blends, supporting your sustainability goals with no change to cooling performance. It has 10.68 EER and 9.8 CEER energy efficiency ratings.
• Commercial-Grade Build: Heavy-duty components and a solid steel cabinet withstand daily wear in offices, schools, and small retail spaces.

Hassle-Free Installation

The unit is designed for fast, reliable installation. A factory-installed outer sleeve reduces on-site assembly and helps ensure proper alignment in window or wall openings. Additional features, like a factory-sealed bottom to prevent condensate leaks and side air curtains that offer a clean, gap-free appearance, further simplify setup. It has a 4-foot LCDI power cord and a perpendicular plug with a 20-amp circuit breaker, allowing it to connect directly to a standard single-phase 208/230-volt commercial electrical outlet.
