SquarePeg|June 30, 2025

Installing a PTAC unit is just the first step. Making sure it performs at its best (and meets local code requirements) means pairing it with the right accessories. At SquarePeg, we carry all the essentials to help your PTAC unit run efficiently, stay secure, and operate safely for years to come.
Here are the must-have PTAC accessories to include with your next installation:
WALL SLEEVES
Every PTAC unit needs a wall sleeve for proper installation. These PTAC accessories are metal or composite sleeves that provide structural support, help insulate the unit, and protect it from weather damage. Be sure to choose a sleeve compatible with your specific model.

EXTERIOR GRILLES
Grilles cover the outdoor side of the PTAC unit, shielding it from debris, pests, and the elements while allowing for proper airflow. Choose an aluminum grille designed to fit standard sleeves.
Featured product: Amana 42-inch Standard Stamped Aluminum Exterior PTAC Grille. Key features: Attaches to the PTAC wall sleeve on the rear and faces the exterior, built to withstand the elements, both protective and decorative.
CONDENSATE DRAIN KITS
