Award-Winning FreshAire PTAC.

The most advanced PTAC ever.  Inverter compressor, true make-up air capability, and FreshAire IAQ accessories for healthy indoor air quality. FreshAire® PTAC delivers the best STC ratings* in the industry of units with true make-up air capability. Patented technology uses the inverter compressor and main cooling system to optimize temperature and humidity level of incoming air. FreshAire PTAC delivers best-in-class efficiencies and low sound levels.

By introducing make-up air directly into the guestroom, rooftop central fresh air systems can be considerably downsized to service only the common areas of the property. This greatly reduces the cost and complexity of hotel design and construction. Unlike other PTACs, the FreshAire PTAC utilizes the main evaporator coil and Merv 8 filters to truly condition and filter the outside ventilation air.

Refrigerant Changes.

For products sold in California, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) has mandated a switch to refrigerant with <750 GWP for room air conditioning products. That means in California, R-410A, with a GWP of 2,088, can no longer be used in products manufactured on or after January 1, 2023. The most common low-GWP alternatives to R-410A are classified by ASHRAE as mildly flammable, or A2L. Friedrich has opted to use R-32. 

View a list of all R-32 Friedrich models available in 2023, complying with CARB standards.

I don’t know of any individual room units, other than the ones made by Friedrich, that are designed to do a reasonable job of ventilating the space that they are controlling. Friedrich does a better job with ventilation air to dilute the concentration.

Bravo to Friedrich for listening to the industry and developing a solution to every engineer’s nightmare when applying PTACs to living units while negotiating the ventilation requirements specified in the local mechanical codes.
