A. This air conditioner is designed for:

1. Installation on a recreational vehicle at the time

the vehicle is manufactured.

2. Mounting on the roof of a recreational vehicle.

3. Connection to an air distribution system located in

the ceiling/roof cavity of the recreational vehicle.

4. Roof construction with rafters/joists on minimum

of 16 inch centers.

5. Minimum of 2.00 inches and maximum of 5.50

inches distance between roof to ceiling of recre-

ational vehicle. Alternate installation methods will

allow for roofs more than 5.50 inches thick.

B. Theabilityoftheairconditionertomaintainthedesired

inside temperature depends on the heat gain of the

RV. Some preventative measures taken by the occu-

pants of the RV can reduce the heat gain and improve

the performance of the air conditioner. During ex-

tremely high outdoor temperatures, the heat gain of

the vehicle may be reduced by:

1. Parking the RV in a shaded area

2. Using window shades (blinds and/or curtains)

3. Keeping windows and doors shut or minimizing

usage

4. Avoiding the use of heat producing appliances

1.1.

1. GENERAL INFORMATIONGENERAL INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATIONGENERAL INFORMATION

GENERAL INFORMATION

Starting the air conditioner early in the morning and

giving it a "head start" on the expected high outdoor

ambient will greatly improve its ability to maintain the

desired indoor temperature.

For a more permanent solution to a high heat gain,

accessories like A&E outdoor patio and window aw-

nings will reduce heat gain by removing the direct

exposure to the sun. They also add a nice area to

enjoy company during the cool of the evening.

C. Condensation NOTENOTE

NOTENOTE

NOTE

The manufacturer of this air conditioner will not be

responsible for damage caused by condensed mois-

ture on ceilings or other surfaces. Air contains mois-

ture and this moisture tends to condense on cold

surfaces. When air enters the RV, condensed mois-

ture may appear on the ceiling, windows, metal parts,

etc. The air conditioner removes this moisture from

the air during normal operation. Keeping doors and

windows closed when this air conditioner is in opera-

tion will minimize condensed moisture on cold sur-

faces.

The Dometic Corporation recommends the basic con-

figuration shown below for installing this Air Conditioner

System.Wehave found bytesting,that this configuration

works best in most applications of this Air Conditioner

System.

It is the responsibility of the Installer of this System to

review each RV floor plan and determine the following:

A. Duct size

B. Duct layout

C. Register size

D. Register locations

E. Thermostat location.

These items must be determined in conjunction with the

Air Distribution System Sizing and Design Requirements

listed in Section 3 of this manual.

2) Mark a 14" x 14" square on the roof and carefully

cut the opening.

3) Using the roof opening as a guide, cut the

matching hole in the ceiling.

4) The opening created must be framed to provide

adequate support and prevent air from being

drawnfromthe roof cavity.Lumber 3/4" ormorein

thickness must be used. Remember to provide an

entrance hole for power supplies, furnace wiring,

4-conductortelephone cable,remote sensing and

load shed options as desired.

5) The 14" opening is part of the return air system of

the Air Conditioner and must be finished in accor-

dance with NFPA Standard 501C Section 2.7.

6) Route a copper 12 AWG, with ground, 115 VAC

supply line from the fuse or circuit breaker box to

the roof opening.

a. This supply line must be located in the front

portion of the 14" opening.

b. The power supply MUSTMUST

c. Make sure at least 15" of supply wire extends

into the roof opening. This ensures easy con-

nection at the Junction Box.

d. Wiring must comply with all National, State and

Local Wiring Codes.

e. Use a steel sleeve and a grommet or equivalent

methods to protect the wire where it passes into

the opening.

7) Route a dedicated 12 VDC supply line (18-22

AWG) from the RV's Converter or Battery to the

roof opening.

a. This supply line must be located in the front

portion of the 14" opening.

b. Make sure that at least 15" of supply wire

extends into the roof opening.

8) If a Remote Temperature Sensor is to be used

(Part No. 3106486.008), the connector end must

be routed to the roof opening of the system which

is till control. Make sure that at least 15" of the

the Remote Sensor in a location 54" above the

floor and away from any heat source in the area

that is to be controlled.

9) If a furnace is to be controlled by the system, the

two furnace thermostat leads must be routed to

the roof opening of the air conditioner that will

control it. Make sure at least 15" of the furnace

thermostat wires extend into the roof opening.

10) If an Energy Management System (EMS) is to be

used with the control, two wires must be routed to

the roof opening of the zone to be managed. The

signal required for this function is a normally open

relay contact. When the EMS calls for the com-

pressor to shut off, the relay contacts should

close.Makesurethatatleast15"oftheEMSwires
