RV Air Conditioner 15K Quiet AC Unit with Heat Pump, Remote Control

In the summertime, and air conditioner means the difference between sweating and suffering through the heat and relaxing in your favorite recliner with a cup of iced tea. If you're like most people, sweating and suffering doesn't sound like a great way to spend your vacation. Neither does listening to the whine of a loud air conditioner, though. This is a problem that many RVers run into; you turn on the air conditioner and you're greeted with a loud whine that you have to deal with if you want that precious cold air. Here at RecPro, we don't want you to have to make that sacrifice. That's why we have these quiet, power-saving, high-quality air conditioners that will take your vacationing comfort to the next level.

Why choose this model? Well, the answers are simple and numerous.

• This isn't just a cheap rooftop AC unit. Unlike other models that are made of cheap plastic that has been molded to shape around the unit, these are made from high-quality, tough plastic built to withstand what life throws at it. In warmer climates, other models of air conditioning units can melt from the heat. Not this one. Built tough and built durable, this AC unit will last you through a good many adventures.

• The remote that is included with the model allows you to control the temperature and settings of the unit from the comfort of your couch. Are you worried that you'll lose it? We've thought of that, too. Along with the remote is a wall carrier for the remote. Simply place it in an easy to reach location and rest the remote in it. The digital display on the inner plenum unit of the air conditioner allows you to control it without the remote as well, just in case you really do lose the remote.
• One of the best features of our Air Conditioner is the Dry Mode. Dry mode runs the fan at a higher speed, cycling more air through your rig and allowing moisture to collect on the coils before draining through to drain holes. Perfect for drying out hot, moist air!
• The second amazing feature to pay attention to is the temperature monitoring system. If you like to leave the AC unit on while you sleep, you can often wake up to a freezing room. Because our bodies are naturally cooler when we sleep, leaving on the air conditioner can make your morning feel like ice. To prevent this, the air conditioning unit has a temperature monitoring system that senses the temperature of the surrounding air and adjusts to accommodate whatever temperature you've set it to, keeping you comfortable even through the night.

• Most RV air conditioning units blow the air from the top unit through the space between them and out of the bottom unit without a tube to control the air. With the air moving around in the space between, it loses some of the temperature quality and cleanliness. With the directional tube in this model, the airflow is controlled to provide optimal temperature quality and cleanliness.
• The low amp draw on this model enables it to not only keep your energy use lower than other models, but it allows you to use more than just the AC unit at one time. For other models that have a higher amp draw, you have to think about how many appliances are on that circuit, as the circuit breaker can only handle so much. With the low amp draw of this model, however, you have more room for other appliances. Saving you power and frustration, it's definitely the best model for energy efficiency.
• Because of the directional air tube, the high-quality design, and the efficient cooling and temperature control system, this AC unit produces air that is of very high quality. Temperature and humidity-controlled for your desired environment, you can feel the difference with this model.
• Our air conditioner uses an efficient heat pump to efficiently and effectively heat your air even at higher fan speeds, unlike other models that may use an inefficient heat strip.
• Perhaps the most important feature of this air conditioning unit is the noise level. Many of the models that come with your RV are loud and a bit obnoxious. Even those that you replace it with can be loud enough for you to notice it. This model, however, only produces 59.1 decibels of sound when on high. For reference, that's about as loud as a gentle rain; not loud at all. With this low sound level, you can relax in your RV, have a conversation, or watch your movie, all without competing with the AC unit.

*This AC unit requires a minimum 2500-watt generator with a dedicated 30-amp service. Using a lower-rated generator may cause difficulty when starting the AC unit or may require a soft starter.*

*It is recommended to use a 3000-watt generator with a dedicated 30-amp service.*

Tips

While the air conditioner is powerful and efficient by itself, there are several things you can do to lessen energy use even further and keep your RV cooler. Close all the doors, skylights, and windows so that the cool air does not leave and hot air does not intrude into your space. Also, draw the curtains and open the shade or awning to keep the heat from the sun from warming up your RV. Cook outside of the RV when possible and park your RV in the shade if there is shade available. Turn off any unnecessary appliances to reduce the energy load. Adjust the temperature of the unit instead of turning the unit off to prevent frequent starting or stopping. Finally, in the case of very high temperatures, turn on the AC unit in advance during the morning.

There is yet another tip that many people already use. In an RV, having just an air conditioning unit is a good way to cool down but also a good way to mess up the humidity in your RV. Instead of only pushing air into your RV, you should also push it out with a roof vent fan. By placing a fan at one end of the RV and an RV AC unit at the other end, you create a flow of air that will even out the temperature and keep the air cleaner. Many people place the fan over their kitchen and the AC unit at the opposite end of their RV. This is because of the smells, heat, and humidity that can build up around the kitchen, with all of the cooking and food from that area. With your air flow set up in this way, your RV interior will feel cleaner and more comfortable.

Maintenance

There are also steps you can take to maintain the unit and lengthen its life. Though there are several important parts to the unit, the return air filter is the only part that needs regular maintenance. Clean and check the filter each week when in use to keep it clean from dirt, washing it in warm water and a little detergent frequently to ensure effective heating or cooling. Make sure it's dry before you replace it. You should also check that the bolts holding the unit on are still stable after the first three months. Throughout the life of the unit, these bolts should be checkers once a year. If you only use the unit on occasion, then the unit should be operated for 20-30 minutes every six months. This AC Unit comes with a preinstalled gasket.
