IMPORTANT
Correct BTU size for cooling and heating needs to be
determined. Most modern construction utilizes thermal
efficient materials and components. In most new
construction motel rooms, the smallest BTU Zoneline is
adequate for the cooling needs. This is contrary to common
practice. An accurate engineering study and calculation
should be made to determine the cooling and heating
requirements.

should be made to determine the cooling and heating

– Smaller BTU models are generally quieter during
cooling and heating operation.
– With a smaller BTU unit running longer the room is
generally less humid. Humidity control is very
important in warm humid areas.

– Smaller units minimize the electrical total connected

– Using the correct size resistance heater may reduce
utility demand charges.
– Reduce operating cost by using properly sized units.
Consider using heat pump models with properly sized
heaters with resistance heat lockout and heat pump
operation to approx. 25°F.

ELECTRIC HEAT VS HEAT PUMP
• In most areas of the U.S.A., the greatest operational costs
are in heating operation. Analyzing the cost of heating
operation by heat pump vs. electric heat may show strong
incentives to choose heat pump models.
