18.3 SEER2 and 8.5 HSPF2. Heat-pump operation to -7°F; electric heat below that.
AI-enabled variable speed assures temperature stability, prevents disruptive on-off cycling, and keeps humidity in check.
Lightweight, easy-to-maneuver components, predictive maintenance, and remote diagnostics.
The industry-leading Verdant VX4 thermostat is included and integrates with your existing BMS/GRMS.
Closets with partial access panels get a flush AIIR door: easier service access and a cleaner, modern look.
Lower operating costs, plus up to $2,000 in rebates* minimize budget impact; about $750 saved per unit each year.

Field-Verified
Metered against a neighboring VTAC room over seven months. Running low and slow, AIIR held tighter temperature and humidity while drawing 350 kWh to the VTAC's 773 kWh.
*Rebate availability and amount depend on geography and local utility.
The VTAC Retrofit Questionnaire is completed with your AIIR rep, matches the wall sleeve to one of 8 transition collars, confirms power and drain, and reviews the closet opening and unit access panel.
The old unit slides out through the closet door. The exterior louver, wall sleeve, branch circuit, and 3/4" condensate drain all stay. Nothing is cut, patched, or added outside.
Components flat-pack through the existing doorway. Once assembled, the plenum and transition collar are placed in the closet and fitted to the existing sleeve and louver.
The AIIR unit sits in the plenum base pan, secured by two tool-less brackets, and reconnects to existing power and drain. Supply air delivers through the AIIR door or a wall-mounted louver. No specialized labor.
Why Act Now
Every VTAC failure costs $3,000+ in lost room revenue while special-order replacements run 4-6 week lead times, and a like-for-like reorder locks in 10+ years of the same energy waste and callbacks.
Hotels and resorts retrofitting room by room.
Owners and operators cutting utility load.
Factory-friendly packaged systems.
