New GE Zoneline® Perfect Control PTAC Units Enhance Guest Comfort
It’s time to simplify operations with a smart update in hospitality HVAC. Say hello to GE Appliances Air & Water Solutions’ latest innovation in commercial air-conditioning: the Zoneline Perfect Control Packaged Terminal Air Conditioners. With cutting-edge inverter technology and R454B refrigerant that meets new industry regulations, this new line of PTACs reduces energy consumption and offers seamless connectivity, allowing hotel owners and managers to maximize operational efficiency and enhance guest comfort.
The HVAC solution that’s just right
The Zoneline Perfect Control PTAC is the first to feature variable-speed inverter technology and a variable-speed compressor, allowing for continuous adjustment to each room’s unique needs. Managers and guests can relax without worrying about noise, humidity or uncomfortable temperatures, making these units ideal for hospitality spaces, including hotels and senior living facilities.
“Imagine that inverter technology operates like cruise control on a car,” said Rob Lafleur, senior director of commercial AC at GE Appliances Air & Water Solutions. “Instead of shutting off when the desired temperature is reached, these units stay on, drastically reducing energy-intensive, noisy startup cycles while keeping the room at a consistent temperature.”
4 key benefits of Zoneline Perfect Control PTACs
Zoneline Perfect Control PTACs are designed to save time and money for property managers through key performance benefits:
-
Energy efficiency
The variable-speed inverter reduces energy-intensive startup cycles, offering significant savings on electricity and utility costs. The use of R454B refrigerant further lowers buildings’ environmental impact and helps facility owners future-proof their fleets for the mandatory industry-wide transition to A2L refrigerants.
-
Self-learning technology
These units use proprietary heat-load algorithms to automatically optimize performance based on room size, occupancy, outdoor conditions and humidity levels, ensuring the system always operates at peak efficiency without requiring manual adjustment.
-
Time-saving smart connectivity
The Perfect Control units are equipped with built-in Wi-Fi, allowing property managers to remotely monitor and control room temperatures via SmartHQTM, GE Appliances’ advanced management system. This feature allows for improved diagnostics, automated reporting and easy adjustments without the need for constant on-site attention, saving both time and money for busy operators.
-
Quiet operation
The inverter technology, along with a large cross-flow blower and dual EC motors, ensures that these units maintain a consistent, whisper-quiet performance, reducing noise disruptions for guests and time spent addressing complaints for managers.
It can be difficult for property managers to find spare time amid their busy schedules, extensive to-do lists and the need to meet various demands. This GE solution reduces the time spent solving air-conditioning issues and removes the need to constantly monitor units while enhancing energy efficiency.
The A2L transition is here
New mandates requiring that all HVAC systems must update to A2L refrigerants begin January 1, 2025. Zoneline Perfect Control PTACs include R454B refrigerant, which is in the class of A2L refrigerants, making these units a smart choice for ensuring readiness and sustainability for the future.
