Frequently Asked Questions

Does this fit a standard 42 x 16 in. PTAC wall sleeve?
No. VTAC equipment installs vertically in a closet enclosure on an outside wall with a gasketed wall plenum and ducted discharge - it does not use the horizontal 42 x 16 in. PTAC sleeve.

What kind of projects is this built for?
Extended-stay hospitality, multifamily, student housing, and assisted-living projects that want concealed, room-by-room packaged comfort with a homelike interior appearance.

Does it need a wall thermostat?
Yes. A single-stage 24V wall thermostat is required and is not included; it is confirmed during quote review.

What should be confirmed before ordering?
Closet dimensions and platform, exterior louver and return-air grille selection, electric heater size and circuit, condensate routing, and voltage - all confirmed during quote review.
