PTAC AMANA PTH R410A K Heat Pump | 15,000 BTU | Montreal
Is it the right size for this room?
Amana doesn't publish a room size for this unit. From its 14,200 BTU/h of cooling, we estimate ≈ 215 to 320 sq ft. Choose your room's area.
It's the right size.
For a 225 to 280 sq ft room, this is the range we estimate for this unit: 14,200 BTU/h of cooling, 13,900 BTU/h of heat-pump heating and a heater of up to 5,000 W when the cold calls for it.
AirGreen estimate: Amana publishes no room size, so we apply the application ranges Trane publishes for its PTACs of the same cooling capacity. Our estimator confirms the exact area on site.
What it does, in numbers
$31.96
Cooling, all summer
Less than a 60 W light bulb
Bulbs left on day and night for a year. Cooling: 5 h a day for 40 days, the assumption used by Hydro-Québec's air-conditioning calculator. Same calculation for every line: wattage × hours × 11.142 ¢/kWh.
≈$198
Heating, all winter
≈ $15 less than baseboard heaters
Typical 268 sq ft room with one exterior wall, in Montréal: 1,911 kWh of heat per winter (Environment Canada 1991–2020 climate normals). The heat pump is counted only at 8 °C and warmer, where Amana rates its output; below that, the heater, at the price of a baseboard. If it keeps heating in colder weather, the bill goes down.
≈ $230 for the year, before tax. Winter is 86% of it. If your home stays in the first tier of Rate D in summer (7.065 ¢/kWh), cooling drops to $20.26.
Capacities and currents: Amana catalog MC-DPTAC 10-23 (October 2023) and manual IO-933A (December 2022). Power draw: 1,434 W in cooling (14,200 BTU/h ÷ EER 9.9), 1,355 W in heat-pump mode, 5,000 W on the 5 kW heater. Hydro-Québec Rate D in effect since April 1, 2026: 11.142 ¢/kWh second tier, before tax.
What you should know about this one
Published, verifiable facts, not brochure claims.
14,200What it really delivers in cooling
The name says 15,000 BTU: that's the unit's size class. Amana publishes 14,200 BTU/h at 230 V, and 14,000 at 208 V, the supply in many buildings. Better to read it here than on the spec sheet after installation.
5,000 WThe heater that takes over
At Amana, the two digits after the series letter (the ** in PTH153K**AXXX) set the heater when ordering: 1.5, 2.5, 3.5 or 5.0 kW at 230 V, 1.3 to 4.1 kW at 208 V. At 5.0 kW it takes a 6-30P plug on 30 A; at 3.5 kW, a 6-20P on 20 A. It heats when the heat pump can no longer keep up.
3.0The COP published at 8 °C
Amana publishes a heat-pump COP of 3.0: 13,900 BTU/h of heat at 230 V. Each kWh you pay for gives back 3.0 in heat, against 1 for the heater or a baseboard.
−7 °CWhen the heat pump hands over
Amana switches the unit from heat pump to the heater when the coil drops below 20 °F (−7 °C), or when the heat pump can't keep up on a two-stage thermostat.
4.4Pints of water it removes per hour
The dehumidification Amana publishes in cooling mode: 4.4 pints per hour. It's what keeps a room comfortable in summer without it turning clammy.
7⅝ inHow far it sticks into the room
Amana quotes a 7⅝ in deep front, one of the slimmest in the industry: the unit takes less space out of the room.
4 °CRoom freeze protection
As soon as the unit senses 40 °F (4 °C) or below, it starts the fan and the heater: an empty room won't freeze in winter.
6-30PThe outlet it needs
With the 5.0 kW heater: a NEMA 6-30P plug on a dedicated 30 A circuit. With 3.5 kW: 6-20P on 20 A. With 2.5 kW: 6-15P on 15 A. In a replacement, the outlet already in the wall dictates the heater size.
It fits the standard 42 × 16 in sleeve
Amana sleeves have the industry-standard dimensions: 42 in wide, 16 ¹⁄₁₆ in high, 14 ⅛ in deep. Our estimator checks the sleeve and the grille in place before ordering.
What it needs on site
In a replacement, we check the outlet and the breaker first: they set the heater size you can use. Our estimator confirms the sleeve, the outlet and the slope before ordering.
