Features to know about
Runs Strong on Limited Power: Built-In Start Capacitor
Low voltage at a campsite can make some AC units struggle to start up. This system solves that with a built-in start capacitor that stores energy and gives the compressor the extra boost it needs when power is limited. It draws 11.2 amps while running and keeps cooling steady without tripping breakers or overloading smaller generators.
Efficient Cooling with Modern R32 Refrigerant: 13,500 Btu Capacity
When the heat inside builds up, this 13,500 Btu system cools the space fast and keeps it comfortable. The dual motors move air more efficiently than single-motor setups, pushing cool air through both ducted and non-ducted layouts. The R32 refrigerant meets 2025 EPA regulations, so it runs cleaner and stays compliant without sacrificing performance.
Quiet Comfort All Night: Sleep Mode and Sound-Reducing Design
Getting rest with an AC running can be tough, but the Chill HE is built to run quiet. Rubber dampeners on the compressor cut vibration, and the sleep setting saves power while reducing noise overnight. The indoor sound pressure level is 80 db, giving steady airflow without harsh fan noise keeping you up.
Easy Retrofit and Reliable Operation: Complete Single Zone System
Replacing or upgrading an existing setup is straightforward with this all-in-one kit. It includes the rooftop air conditioner, air distribution box, single zone controller, and digital wall thermostat for simple bolt-on installation. Once wired to 115V power, the system restarts automatically after power interruptions and protects itself from short cycling to reach your set temperature between 60°F and 86°F.
Built for Durability on the Road: Protective Housing and Simple Upkeep
The UV-resistant cover shields internal parts from water and debris while the EPP foam housing resists both moisture and chemicals. Thermal insulation keeps motors from overheating in hot conditions, and removable air filters make cleaning easy. At just 76 lbs, it’s light enough to handle during install but tough enough for long trips ahead.

It fit, BUT it seems there's no convenient way to get 12v power to it on a 2010 Itasca Cambria (Winnebago) that came with a Coleman AC/heatpump. Check your current wiring before ordering this kit. My solution, suggested by Furion, is a manual control air distribution box with simpler wiring and adding a separate thermostat for the furnace. I should have ordered the AC, manual ADB and manual controller separately. Working on our RV is always an adventure.

eTrailer shipped the units very quickly and they arrived in excellent shape. Installation instructions were hard to locate, but this is not an issue with eTrailer. Just note Furrion only includes brief instructions with the units and you have to reference online manuals for more details.
I was replacing two Coleman Mach 15 units and installation was fairly straight forward. If you are replacing a unit, keep in mind you have to have 12 volt power going to the ceiling unit. My RV did not have 12 volt. I had two options.. 1). Use some of the thermostat wires to pass 12 volt to the ceiling or 2). Install a converter from the ceiling 120v. Due to the gague of the thermostat wire, I opted to install a 120v to 12v converter using the ceiling feed. These are fairly cheap online and simple to install.
The Furrion units themselves are excellent. They have a lot more power than my Coleman units, even though the BTU is slighly less.
My main issues with the units:
1). The thermostat backlight does not automatically turn on. You have to push a button before the backlight comes on and you end up changing a function or messing the temp up. This is annoying.
2). The included ADB in the package I purchased create a lot of noise. It is noisy when the dump vent is closed and sounds like you are in the middle of a tornado when the dump vent is open.
My low rating is mainly due to the ADB. I will have to purchase a different ADB or find some type of modification. The noise is high, even with the vent closed.

The etrailer youtube videos didn't help with more than setting up the install. Once we got to the wiring, we had to hire an RV tech to handle that piece since there were no resources to help us with that part for the kit we got.

Desiring to improve the ability to cool the rig by adding a second AC installed using the bedroom vent opening configured as a stand-alone zone we choose the Furrion Chill HE kit. A secondary goal is to have an AC unit that can be utilized during BLM camping with our small inverter-generator to cool the bedroom. The FR85PV kit enables both goals and it is easy to install. I bench-tested the unit prior to mounting the AC unit on the rig. The Chill provides output air at 48.6 degrees F while drawing 9.1 amps in the run state. Inrush current was 44.5 amps. I had concern for the thermostat placement to prevent AC output air fooling the thermostat in a small room. I learned that the thermostat is a control point and not a temperature sensing point. The temperature displayed on the thermostat is acquired by a sensor in the return air duct opening.
I suggest two points of emphasis while installing the kit. First, take your time installing the two-piece divider that separates the cold air out chamber from the return air chamber. Ensure you have a good seal between the two chambers. Second emphasis involves the room temperature sensor in the air return chamber. The sensor is a short lead wire – I bent my lead in an L shape and pointed the sensor upwards into the room air return duct and away from the unit’s wire bundle to achieve the best sensing location.

Arrived on time! I purchased as a new second unit from etrailer because the unit came with a soft startup and all the required components. I was going to purchase from Camping World because the price was cheaper, but after digging deeper, Camping World delivered everything separately and didn't come with soft start up. So, etrailer's price ending up being about the same. Installation was easy. Screws were missing from the thermostat to install on the wall and screws were missing from the control unit to attach it to the distribution box. Make sure when installing the 4 screws to secure the unit that they are torqued to 50lbs. Haven't put it to the test yet, but it blows some cold air!!!

After a years service, this unit has become problematic. Went from being fairly quiet to just plain loud at 74db on low. Some features we appreciate are the heat / cooling relay system which consolidated our heater and cooling Thermostat. But, that's about it. Fairly poorly engineered because air distribution is not even front to back (blows more air out the back of the distributer). Vibration is about as bad as what we had. We are looking for a better solution. Just about as terrible (but not quite) as the Dometic it replaced.

I had Cornerstone Rv Repair located in Porter TX come out and install this for me. They were impressed with it and complimented it's ease of installation. Will need to see how it holds up against summer sun and heat here in southeast Texas. Looks very good on top of my trailer.

Unit failed 2 months after installation. Warrantee did not help. Really there isn't one because you have to do everything for their failure. This means I would have to uninstall and drive some place for them to do warrantee. Not realistic to leave a whole in your roof because they can't send someone out to see that their unit was crap

Hey, Michael. I'm really sorry to hear what's going on with the AC. This is definitely something we don't want you to have to experience. I'm going to be reaching out to you to get this taken care of.

It was so good to get all the parts to install this air conditioner, in one order. We had ordered from Camping World and had to order each part separately, this ended up with the parts arriving at different times and we had to wait on the thermostat for a couples of weeks. It was so easy withe etrailer and when they told us that it was on back order and the order would be in in a week and it was, and now it is setting on my from porch. My sister and her husband is needing an air conditioner for their camper and I am going to recommend she contact etrailer.

- Replacement AC for a Forest River 5th Wheel Trailer w/a 13,500 btu AC System Hello Lynda! I checked online and it looks like your 2013 Forest River Salem Lite 356QBQ comes from the factory with a ducted 13,500 btu AC system. I could not find what specific brand or model you have. If you're just trying to replace the air conditioner itself, the Furrion item # FR82PV you were looking at is only going to work if you currently have a Coleman AC system. The EPA mandated a refrigerant change at the beginning of 2025, which made your AC system incompatible with anything...
view full answer... - Recommended Replacement AC for a Dometic 57915541 Hey Eugene, thanks for the information. To replace your Dometic 57915541 ac unit you'll need to replace the entire system. We found in recent years that the functions on the connectors do not match up with different systems and you'll void the warranty on your new AC unit if you mix and match brands. Additionally, none of the newer units are compatible with the older Dometic air boxes because all of the old R410A units and their parts are being phased out. Not only will replacing your...
view full answer... - Can A Rooftop AC Unit Be Added To An Enclosed Trailer With A 1" Thick Roof? Hey Don, welcome back! Yes, it's definitely possible to replace the roof vent with an A/C unit since both use the standard 14" x 14" roof opening. For an enclosed trailer, I'd recommend the following: - Furrion Chill HE RV AC System w/ Thermostat - 13.5K Btu - Ducted/Non-Ducted - Single Zone - R32 # FR35TD The biggest challenge isn't the opening, it's the roof structure. The Furrion requires a roof thickness between 3-1/2" and 6", so with a 1" roof, you'll need to build a spacer/frame...
view full answer... - Will Soft Start Help A Furrion Chill AC Unit For Reducing Startup Power Requirements?Hey Ken, the Furrion Chill HE Replacement RV Air Conditioner Unit for Furrion Setup - 13,500 Btu - White # FR26PR has a built-in capacitor to make startup easier, therefore it won't benefit from having an additional soft start added. It's already in there and ready to go! Do you already have this ac unit or are you just browsing? Keep in mind it's just the unit itself and on the whole system. And it's the older refrigerant style R410A. Now days all the new units/systems use the modern...
view full answer... - Can I Use the Furrion Chill Air Distribution Box with a Furrion 13,500 BTU Air Conditioner?Hello Russ, I'm sorry, but you cannot use the Replacement Air Distribution Box for Furrion Chill RV Air Conditioners - Built-in Thermostat - White # FACT11MA-PS with the FACR13SA-PS / FACR13SA-BL units, as it is only compatible with the Furrion Chill system. As of this year, RV refrigerants have transitioned from R410a to R32. R410a parts are becoming increasingly difficult to find, and once they're sold out, they won’t be restocked. Additionally, the older R410a components are not compatible...
view full answer... - Replacement AC for Dometic on 2013 Keystone CougarHi Leonard; are you referring to the # FR26TD and # FR86TD? Those are partial part numbers so I'm not 100% sure. If you were looking at the old R410A units I recommend steering clear and upgrading to one of these R32 units. Everything has shifted to R32 refrigerant due to the 2025 EPA requirements, and all of the old parts and systems have been phased out. Since they aren't backwards compatible you will need the AC, air distribution box (ADB), and thermostat. You can choose from the following: -Furrion...

They tend to be the quietest and most efficient options on the market and they are the ones I almost always recommend. Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System - Manual - 13,500 Btu - White - R32 # FR95TD Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System - Single Zone - 13,500 Btu - White - R32 # FR35TD Both of these are full kits with the only difference between them...

I would replace the Carrier with the Furrion Chill HE RV AC System 13,500 Btu # FR35TD. This is a complete AC setup that includes the AC unit, air distribution box, controller, and wall mounted thermostat, so you won't need to reuse any of the old Carrier components. The Furrion Chill HE includes the thermostat to control both the air conditioner and a compatible furnace. This allows...

The Furrion Chill HE Replacement RV Roof Air Conditioner Unit # FR26TD is just the AC. Since this is one of the new units with R32 refrigerant to meets 2025 EPA regulations you will have to replace the air distribution box (ADB) and thermostat as well. If you want to stick with the Furrion Chill HE you need the # FR35TD. This works with ducted and ductless setups and includes the AC unit, controller, thermostat, and ADB. If you're going to replace everything I would also take...

If you're wanting to add a second AC unit to your Keystone, then you will need a whole standalone kit as there aren't any kits that will tie into your existing Dometic unit. For your application, I recommend the Furrion Chill HE 13,500 Btu kit which comes in White # FR35TD or Black # FR25TD and includes the AC unit, Air distribution box, single zone controller, and the thermostat as well. These kits use the new R32 refrigerant which is being required...
view full answer... - What Air Conditioner will Replace My Duo Therm Air Condtioner 57915.541 13,500 BTU?Hello Robert, There is a good reason why you are not able to find a good replacement. The RV air conditioner refrigerant went from the R410a to the R32 this year. The R32 is more efficient making it better for the environment and the consumer, a win-win in my book. The downfall to the new refrigerant is that you can no longer use the R410a parts with the new R32 parts, so this will require for you to get a whole new set-up. Since your current duo therm was a 13,500 BTU I recommend...
view full answer... - What Air Conditioner 13,500 BTU Will Replace My Current Dometic Air Conditioner?Hello Roy, You will need a whole new set-up. I am sure that is not the answer you were hoping for, but I have a great explanation. The Air Conditioner refrigerant went from the R410a to the R32 this year. The new R32 is much more efficient making it a win win for the environment and the consumer. The downfall to this change is that your old R410a parts are not compatible with the new R32 parts which is why you will need a new set-up. - For Muti Zone: Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner...

Yes, the thermostat that comes with the Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System # FR85PV will also be able to operate your furnace. Keep in mind, this is what remains of the old R410A systems. Everything has moved to R32 due to EPA regulations so you may want to consider the # FR35TD instead. Parts for the older systems have been phased out. What kind of RV do you have?
