Amana PTCB10K Curtain Baffle Kit - for J & K series models - APTCB109001

The color-matched polymer curtain baffles help prevent curtains from falling into the discharge air stream and causing recirculation, which reduces efficiency and shortens compressor life. By using these curtain baffles, the kit aims to ensure that the airflow from the PTAC unit is not obstructed by falling curtains. 
This can contribute to maintaining the unit's efficiency and promoting a longer lifespan for the compressor.
Trust in the Amana PTCB10K Curtain Baffle Kit to not only optimize efficiency but also elevate the look of your Amana PTAC unit.
