Major brands such as Hilton, Marriott, Choice, IHG, Hyatt, and Best Western are increasingly requiring hotel owners to implement more green initiatives in their properties within the next few years. For most owners, upgrading these PTAC units represents a significant expense, with the cheapest option priced at around $450.
Despite the upfront cost being substantial, the long-term savings are considerable. These new units require less maintenance and consume less power. Equipped with motion sensors to detect room occupancy, the AI adjusts the temperature to conserve power and reduce the strain on the PTAC unit for cooling. Additionally, with new maintenance tools, the unit can promptly alert technicians to any issues, ensuring a seamless guest experience.
Some power companies offer rebates for PTAC and thermostat upgrades. Companies like Verdant Thermostats, which incorporate occupant sensors, make excellent additions to hotel guest rooms.
