Air Distribution Box and Thermostat

Advent Air Air Wall ThermostatAdvent Air Air Distribution Box

The AC unit includes an air distribution box with a built-in thermostat. The thermostat has an LED digital display that lets you control the mode, fan, and temperature settings. If you add an electric heat strip (sold separately) to remove the chill on cold mornings, then the thermostat also controls the heat setting. Additionally, there are adjustable registers on the front and back of the box. These can be tilted up, down, or side-to-side for directing the air where needed. The removable air filter prevents dust and dirt from building up on the fan blades.


Start Capacitor

Advent Air Start Capacitor

If your campsite or generator isn't able to draw the power you need, then you may have difficulty starting your AC unit. The included start capacitor, however, can eliminate this problem. The capacitor stores energy that will later be used to jumpstart the AC. Once the sufficient amount of power has been supplied to the AC, the compressor will start to run, and the internal relay switch will turn the start capacitor off. At the same time, the compressor will send "back voltage" to the relay switch and capacitor in order to energize them for the next startup.


Simple Installation

Advent Air AC Installation 13,500 BTU

Because your RV is likely already prepped and pre-wired for an AC unit, installation is simple and easy. Most AC units, including this one, are designed to fit an opening that measures 14-1/4" x 14-1/4". Depending on your roof setup, you may need to do minimal alterations. If the opening is larger than 14-3/8" x 14-3/8", you will need to install spacers between the sides of the unit and the opening's edges. If the opening is smaller than 14-1/8" x 14-1/8", you will need to enlarge the hole to fit the unit snugly inside the opening.


Advent Air AC Collapsible Gasket and Foam Pads

On the bottom of the AC, there's a thick, collapsible gasket with 6 noise-reducing foam pads. This provides support between the RV roof and AC and seals the opening to prevent water and outside air from leaking in. Because of this, the use of fresh sealant isn't required during installation.


To install the start capacitor, bolt it to the fan motor support with the included hardware and then route the wires to the run capacitor.


Once installed, the hard plastic cover on the AC can easily be removed for maintenance and cleaning.


Advent Air Warranty Coverage

2-Year limited warranty covers defective units when installed correctly on approved applications. The warranty does not cover units installed incorrectly. To ensure air conditioner is installed correctly, please see the questionnaire pdf below. A filled-out questionnaire is required for warranty coverage.


If you are not comfortable using a voltmeter (or removing the charge from the start capacitor), you'll want to make a service appointment with your local RV dealer to verify the installation. Print the pdfs below (warranty- questionnaire, warranty dealer information) and take them along with the RV to your local dealer. ASA does compensate dealers for warranty work as outlined in the dealer information pdf. You may be charged by the dealer for time spent investigating the installation.

Unit came damaged, I opened it up on a Thursday and immediately called and Rochelle had a replacement to me on Saturday and installed on Sunday. Worked perfectly, the online video's are helpful. Some more detailed instructions with pictures would be a suggestion. I feel like I torqued the bolts, but it seems like it is almost excessive torque. The instructions do say the seals will crush to about a half inch which is quite a bit of tightening. Overall very happy and happy with the service from Rochelle to get the replacement fast and the call tag for the old one was called in and picked up on a Monday so all is good.

I installed the unit my self and it work great

Very knowledgeable about product and extremely helpful. Would use this company again. Thank you Natalie

Bought to replace a 3 year old Domestic. Very pleased with the operation and ease of installation. I did go with an entire system and happy I did even though the unit replacement would have worked. I like the updated thermostat and the 3 adjustable vents.



by:

Just installed it seems to work fine .... I'm gonna test it out in a couple weeks



by:

arrived promptly and was well packaged.



by:

The delivery was perfect, but I haven't installed it.



by:

I’m not a fan of this unit at all it does not keep up like a 15k btu should !!!!



by:

Air conditioner seems to work well so far, and is quieter than my old domestic unit. Installation instructions could be better, I had to figure out the wiring on my own. This uses a 4 wire thermostat, my old unit used a 3 wire so I had to run an additional wire.



by:

Delivery was quick - two days. The AC arrived undamaged. E trailer has plenty of great installation videos which made the process smooth and uneventful. Everything performs as promised. For some reason Advent air conditioners don't come with a hard start capacitor included and they were on back order virtually everywhere online. So the 2 week plus wait for that was a bit annoying, but by no means a game changer. Basically Advent us a great unit at a great price that was easy to install diy.

  • Replacement AC System for a Dometic Penguin II 11,500 Btu Air Conditioner
    Hey Jeff, thanks for the information! To replace your Dometic Penguin II AC you'll need to replace the entire system. We've found recently that the harnesses and connectors from different manufacturer's don't work well with each other and you'll void the warranty by mixing and matching them. Additionally, the new R32 refrigerant, which is far more efficient, also makes AC components made before 2025 incompatible with the newer compliant units. For a replacement AC system, I recommend...

  • Do You Still Have the Advent AC for Carrier Set-up with the Old R410a Refrigerant?
    Hello Joshua, I am very sorry but we have sold out of the ACCAR150. This year the RV refrigerant went to the new R32 from the R410a. The R410a is no longer being made, so once our stock of the old R410a is sold out, it is gone for good. The good news is that the R32 is much more efficient, great for the environment, and also great for the consumer. The not so good news is that you cannot mix the old R410a parts with the new R32 refrigerant, so you will need a whole new set-up. You will...

  • Will the Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner System R32 Thermostat Work w/a Furnace?
    Yes, it will Lance. The thermostat included with the Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner System item # ADV65SR will work with your existing furnace. It has 3 settings cooling, furnace, and heat strip. What kind of trailer or RV do you have?

  • Looking For A Replacement AC Unit For My Dometic Duo Therm
    Hey Steve, We do not carry the Dometic Duo-Therm Ac Units. All of our RV Ac units are no longer compatible with other brands so you will need to replace the full AC system in your trailer. A solid system I recommend is the Advent Air 13,500 btu system # ADV65SR. This comes with the unit, distribution box as well as a thermostat for you to replace your system. Does your current system have a wall thermostat or a manual distribution box?

  • Replacement AC Unit for Dometic Air Conditioner
    Hey Jen, thanks for reaching out! The AC world has been shifting a bit this past year because of a new regulation that says all ACs from here on out need to use R32 refrigerant. Because of this, a lot of the older AC units have become obsolete. The Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner # ADV89FR will still work with an older Dometic unit that uses the 6-Pin connector, and it can be paired with the Start Capacitor # ACMSCKIT for a more efficient start up. If you'd like to get a jump...

  • What Advent Air Conditioner will Replace My Dometic Penguin AC Only?
    Hello Darrin, Sorry to hear that your Dometic Penguin went into retirement. The RV AC's went to a new refrigerant this year, they went from the R410a to the R32. You cannot mix the old R410a parts with the new R32 parts, they have made them to not physically match up but that's only because if you do mix the parts it could cause a spark and result in a fire. As we sell out of our R410a parts, they are gone for good. The new R32 is more efficient than the R410a, so it is a win for all,...

  • Can Advent Air RV AC Unit Replace Dometic
    Hey Jason, we can help but we no longer recommend trying to fit an Advent AC upper unit to a Dometic lower unit. At one point we thought it was compatible but we found that only about 50 percent time it worked well. Plus they recently switched to a new refrigerant which means it definitely won't work. So instead you'd want the part # ADV65SR which is a kit that includes all new components like you'd need. This will for sure work well for you.

  • 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...

  • Recommended Air Distribution Box for a R32 Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner System
    Hey Russell, thanks for all of that. The Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner System item # ADV45SR you were looking at will not work with the Air Distribution Box w/ Wall-Mounted Thermostat for Advent Air RV Air Conditioners item # ACRG15. The item # ADV45SR has the new R32 refrigerant in it so it would not be backwards compatible with any older system. If you are wanting to go with the Advent Air 13,500 btu item # item # ADV45SR AC you would need to purchase the entire setup with...

  • Replacement AC Unit for an Airxcel 48253C966
    Hey Todd, thanks for reaching out! All of the current AC units use their own wiring and connectors. You might be able to find a tech who can wire in the Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner # ADV79FR manually, but your best bet will be to get a complete replacement system to ensure everything is compatible. I recommend sticking with the Advent Low Profile, but using the Kit # ADV45SR which allows you to change the settings manually at the distribution box, or the Kit # ADV65SR which...

  • How Far is the Back of the AC Unit from the Vent Opening on a 13,500 Advent Air RV Air Conditioner?
    Hey Mac. The rear of a 13,500 Btu Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner like item # ADV79FR is 14-7/8" from the back of the vent opening. Are planning on installing an AC system in place of your Max fan I? If so the Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner System item # ADV65SR comes with everything you need.

  • Are there Low Profile Models for the GE Appliances HE RV AC System w/ Heat Pump?
    Hey Ricky. There are no low profile AC units for the 13,500 Btu GE Appliances HE RV AC System w/ Heat Pump item # GE54RR or the 15,000 Btu item # GE85ZR. The only low profile systems we currently have are the 13,500 Btu Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner System item # ADV65SR or the 15,000 Btu item # ADV82SR. These do not have heat pumps but you can install the Electric Heat Strip for Advent Air RV Air Conditioners item # ADV34QR. The Advents are going to be 3.8" shorter than the...
