All new for 2026, the new ARAMA R32 PTAC (Packaged Terminal Air Conditioner) is actually a PTHP (Packaged Terminal Heat Pump) designed for homes, apartments, condos, senior living, and multifamily housing. A PTAC is also commonly known as a "hotel type air conditioner" as PTAC are found in many limited-service and mid-range hotel rooms in the USA. The PTHPs can be used for either purpose although HSE focuses on residential applications. Many home owners have discovered the cost advantage of PTACs when adding room additions, or converting attics/garages into air conditioned space. The units are very low cost to purchase and install, in comparison to mini-splits, and can be more energy efficient that central AC units because there are no duct losses, and the home owner can turn them off room by room, as needed.
Histroically, PTACs do a great job at heating or cooling but are not typically very quiet and don't always seem to keep a thermostat setting very well, often requiring frequent adjustment made by mechanical controls on the top of the unit. And even though they compare well to a central system as far as total system efficiency, their SEER ratings are typically in the SEER 10-12 range, far from what's possible with inverter technology. Enter the DC Inverter ARAMA - this new 2026 model hotel room type air conditioner/PTAC (actually a PTHP, a heat pump) uses a Toshiba-GMCC DC Inverter compressor, so it is very quiet by comparison. It is unique in that it uses an utra-high efficiency DC Inverter compressor, and its effective SEER is about 70% higher than other PTACs due to its variable speed inverter operation. So, one real advantage of the ARAMA PTAC is that it is far more efficient than other hotel type air conditioners available in the market, saving 35-40% or more by comparison.
In addition, the ARAMA DC Inverter is very quiet compared to other PTACs. For better comfort, the ARAMA can use a wall mounted thermostat installed across the room, or a hand-held remote control, so the ARAMA thermostat works more like a normal thermostat and gives the level of room comfort usually found only with central systems. ARAMA units are compatibe with all standard thermostats including WiFi, etc.
The ARAMA PTHPs are available in 9,000, 12,000 and 15,000 BTU sizes, perfect for bedrooms, assisted-living spaces, dormitories, studio apartments, converted garage or atic, etc. All of the ARAMA PTHPs are the same external dimensions and fit the industry standard 42" x 16" wall sleeve common to all PTACs. Since the units are often sold as a replacement for an existing PTAC, the wall sleeve and grill are not included, as the previous unit sleeve and grill can be re-used. Wall sleeves and grills are available for ordering as an accessory if needed. The available grills are atractive Architectural Grills (horizontal).
