Introduction

This manual is designed to provide product, performance  
and application information to our customers and their 
architects and engineers for use in selection and design  
of a zonal comfort control system utilizing GE Zoneline

®

 

Packaged Terminal Air Conditioners (PTAC) and Packaged 
Terminal Heat Pumps (PTHP). GE Zoneline PTACs and PTHPs 
are self-contained units designed for through-the-wall 
installations in hotels, motels, apartments, hospitals,  
nursing homes, add-on rooms and many other installations.
Zoneline units provide individual room or zone control in both 
cooling and heating operation. There is a model for practically 
every application, ranging in cooling capacity from 7,200 to 
14,800 BTUH and heating capacity from 6,400 to 14,000 BTUH 
in heat pump operation. See pages 42 and 54 for resistance 
heaters available.    
Zoneline offers a two-tier lineup: The 

Deluxe Line

 consists of 

the 4100 Series with electric resistance heat, the 4100 Series 
Dry Air 25 Models with enhanced dehumidification for hot 
and humid climates and the 6100 Series heat pump. The 
6100 Series heat pump features reverse cycle defrost and 
simultaneous supplemental resistance heat, when needed,  
to maintain room comfort. Both offer tactile touch controls 
with digital display and optional corrosion protection.

•  Electronic Temperature Limiting        
•  “Smart Fan” Fan Cycle/Continuous Control
•  Transfer Fan Interface                         
•   Reverse Cycle Defrost and Simultaneous 

 

Supplemental Resistance Heat on Heat Pumps

•   Quick Heat Recovery

Deluxe Line Optional Features:

•  Corrosion Protection
•   Internal Condensate Removal (on 6100 Series 

 

Heat Pump without Corrosion Protection)

NOTE:  Dry Air 25 models include all the standard features of the  

4100 Series plus standard corrosion protection.

Advantages of the GE Zoneline System:

•  Flexible Application

   — May be installed from flush to finished floor to  

3" from the ceiling

   — 7,200 to 14,800 BTUH units in same physical size
   — Deluxe 4100 and 6100 Series may be ducted to  

condition more than one room

   — Compatible with Class 2 remote thermostat control
   — Compatible with 2-wire CDC or many Energy  

Management Systems

•  Economical Installation

   — No ductwork necessary
   — No mechanical equipment rooms or pipes required  

for heating/cooling units 

   — Replacement units fit existing 42"-wide by 16"-high  

wall cases   

•  Quiet Operation

   —  Indoor cross-flow blower

•  Energy-Saving Operation

   — Units in unoccupied areas may be turned off
   —  Designed for efficient cooling operation — EERs from  

10.6 to 13.2

   — Efficient heat pump units  — COPs from 3.3 to 4.0
   —  Extended heat pump operation without sacrificing  

room comfort

•  Ease of Maintenance

   — Permanently lubricated fan motors
   — Upfront lift-out interchangeable filters
   —  Slide-out chassis for easy access for cleaning or if  

service is required

•  Reverse Cycle Heat Pump Operation 

The 6100 Series heat pumps utilize the unique GE PTAC  
heat pump operation to ensure a comfortable room.  
The logic used by the units is the same logic used by  
central system heat pumps to provide greater savings.
