Features to know about

Cools Fast and Runs Efficiently: 13,500 Btu Dual-Motor Design

When the cabin needs to cool off fast, this 13,500 Btu air conditioner gets it done. Its dual motors move air quicker and more efficiently than single-motor designs, pushing consistent airflow through ducted or non-ducted setups. The R32 refrigerant keeps performance up while meeting 2025 EPA regulations, and an energy efficiency ratio of 7.1 helps you stay comfortable without wasting power.

Stays Steady on Low Power: Built-In Start Capacitor

Low campsite voltage doesn’t have to stop the cool air. The built-in start capacitor stores extra energy to jump-start the compressor when a generator or hook-up isn’t providing enough power. Once running, it automatically resets to be ready for the next cycle, so you get reliable cooling even in power dips.

Quiet Comfort Day and Night: Rubber Dampeners and Sleep Setting

Noise won’t cut into your downtime thanks to rubber dampeners that reduce compressor vibration and an indoor sound pressure level of 80 dB. Switch on the sleep setting at night to keep things cool while saving power and lowering fan noise for a more relaxing rest.

Simple Setup with Solid Protection: Complete System with Bolt-On Install

This complete rooftop system comes ready for installation with its air distribution box, single zone controller, and wall thermostat. The EVA foam seal prevents leaks between the ceiling and box, while a UV-resistant cover shields internal parts from rain and debris. Bolt it down, connect the harnesses, and you’re set with reliable cooling built to last trip after trip.

Smart Control Options: Digital Wall Thermostat with Multiple Modes

Fine-tune temperature and airflow your way using the digital wall thermostat. It displays settings clearly and lets you choose from four operation modes between 60°F and 86°F (16°C–30°C). Automatic restart remembers your last settings after a power interruption, keeping comfort consistent without extra steps.

FAST AND A GREAT DEAL

You had better know about wiring for a multi zone system because there is very limited instructions. I have a straight through duct system on my Monaco Dynasty and installation with that meant alot of fabrication.

Super fast delivery and product was as advertised.

Giving this set up 4 stars for a couple issues I feel shouldn't have been part of the experience but will spell them out. I did no pics or video as there are plenty out there.

This set up was delivered timely and in perfect condition. I got the old rear unit removed and the new Furrion replaced in just a couple hours. As I did with the front. First bad part. The place they gave for the 110 wiring. The engineers that decided this was ok should be made to install one. I was able to get it put in the spot but it took way longer than it should have. I replaced duo therm units that utilized phone cable t Stat wiring. I was a little skeptical about this. I called e Trailer to inquire about that. They were zero help except for the phone number to the Furrion parent Co. No let me tell you, they were awesome. Wiring schematic emailed in seconds and complete confidence given.
Installs went smoothly. I made a small mistake with electrics but was easily remedied. Next bad note. The plastic for air distribution plate is crap. 1 push in and it was broke. Was able to aluminum tape it up and get it fitted. Fire up and viola! Cold ac. I love the led lighting. The external look is rad. Overall I'm very pleased. Operation is much quieter and I'm hoping much more efficient. If you're on the fence about these units, don't be. These are great units.

I purchased the 15K Btu/hr Furrion Chill R32 system to replace a Dometic Brisk Air. The Dometic was noisy and tended to freeze up after about a half hour of use. The Furrion seems to work well and is noticeably quieter than the old AC. So far we haven't seen temperatures much above 80F, so I can't yet say how well it will work when temperatures get into the nineties and above.

The system arrived only two days after it was ordered. Installation was fairly simple. The unit is heavy (~80 lbs) and it took three people to get it on the roof of our camper. This system includes the rooftop unit itself, the air distribution box, a multi-zone controller and a multi-zone thermostat. I didn't need the multi-zone capability, but it works fine as a single zone system.

One obvious difference between the Furrion and our old Dometic AC is the dual fan motors of the Furrion. The Dometic uses a single motor to drive both the evaporator and condenser fans, so setting the fan speed to low slows down the condenser fan. Another difference is how the freeze sensor attaches to the evaporator, using a pre-installed clip to securely hold it where it needs to be. That's a huge improvement over the Dometic freeze sensor, which you just jamb into the evaporator at a random location and hope it doesn't fall out going down the road.

Installation was fairly simple. The Furrion uses a four-wire connection to its thermostat, while the Dometic thermostat is three-wire. Fortunately our thermostat cable had a spare wire, so this wasn't a problem. Also, the furnace thermostat wires for both systems go to AC unit, so that connection was simple. Care needs to be taken to confirm the DIP switch settings inside the controller, which are hard to see. I had to switch on DIP 4 to enable the furnace. There is a foam duct divider shipped inside the AC unit that has to be pulled out and installed between the AC unit and the distribution box.

There didn't seem to be a manual included with the thermostat, although a PDF is available on the Lippert site. Note that the room temperature sensor isn't actually in the 'thermostat', but rather inside the air distribution box intake. There are comments on the web saying that this causes short-cycling, but I haven't seen a problem with our ducted installation. Maybe it's a problem for unducted installations. Kits are available from Castle Winch to relocate the temperature sensor if that's a problem. I believe the furnace temp sensor IS in the thermostat.

There are a bunch of extra wires coming out of the controller, presumably for use in applications that don't accept the standard six pin connector. I capped them off with wire nuts and stowed them in the air intake.

The thermostat is back-lit, making it easy to adjust without turning on a light. When not adjusting the set temperature, the thermostat displays the room temperature. The thermostat has two program settings, although it's not real clear from the manual how they're supposed to work. Although the Furrion has three fan speeds, there's very little difference between them. The auto fan setting seems to work fine.

Service & delivery was outstanding Furrion chill cube was delivered on time by ups.
I installed the unit on my Lance SQ805 truck camper. The camper came without AC but was wired for it from the factory (thank goodness).
I rented a material lift from Home Depot it lifted the complete assembly up to 16 feet to load on roof.
Directions for installation were very helpful, I purchased a multi zone unit even though I only needed 1 zone. Muli zone came with a wall thermostat. I mounted it close to the ceiling so it would sense the temperature near the ceiling to keep our bed cool.
I had to run wire through conduit on the ceiling to the thermostat.
Starting temperature was 101F outside, 99F inside
Set thermostat to cool & 72 degrees
After 30 minutes 85F inside
After 1 hour 72F inside & 100F outside
Starting Watts 1290 & 10.66 amps
Maximum power Watts 1439 & 12.87 amps
Fantastic cooling unit!
(I had to contact the manufacturer to get clarification on Dip switch settings to use unit with only one zone, the told me to set all switches to off. An easy adjustment described in the manual. Great service & good customer service!)
Thanks to everyone at etrailer & Lippert mfg. for their service & support.

  • 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...

  • Recommended Furrion A/C Replacement for 2 Dometic Brisk II A/C

  • Can Furrion Chill HE RV AC Unit Install with Other AC Unit that Uses Older Refrigerant
    Hey Michael, you can add a Furrion Chill HE system like the part # FR55TD to your RV but since it is on the newer refrigerant you would need a kit that includes a replacement for everything since no parts of the older style setups are compatible with the new refrigerant styles including the thermostats. So with this kit installed it would need it's own thermostat (included) separate from the one you have now. The part # FR55TD does come with absolutely everything though so with just this...
