If you are replacing existing units, your options

Weather Last™ sleeve
ADVANTAGES OF THE PACKAGED TERMINAL AIR
CONDITIONER FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION
• Super-quiet performance, indoors and out
• No bulky duct system
• No separate equipment room
• No water towers or additional cooling equipment
• No complex match-up of different HVAC components
• Less sensitivity to building orientation (sun, wind, shade)
• Optional architectural grille to permit custom exterior
appearance
• No expensive component HVAC system purchase
• No equipment room or maintenance engineering staff
• Two-part delivery to minimize on-site damage
• Weather-protected wall sleeve that goes in place during construction;
chassis that slides in place after construction
• No seasonal changeover required for cooling or heating — units are
self-contained comfort systems
• Heat pump models offer substantial savings over conventional electric
resistance heaters
• Individual units allow tenants to choose the degree of comfort and
operating economy
• Rapid servicing reduces downtime: complete chassis can be replaced
in minutes without disrupting other occupants.
• Each unit operates independently of other units in the building. No
dependency by building on individual units.
• Apartments
• Single-family dwellings
• Home conversions and residential add-ons
• Using an existing sleeve made by another manufac-
turer. The 52S Series chassis can be adapted with a
simple accessory kit to fit existing GE, Amana, and
Trane wall sleeves. All other sleeve applications
need approval from Carrier.
