This AC unit from Advent Air is designed to replace the old or broken Carrier air conditioner on your RV or camper. The included adapter wiring kit ensures that the AC works seamlessly with your existing, in-good-working-order Carrier air distribution box and thermostat. The AC has a powerful fan and motor that provides a steady stream of air to efficiently cool the inside of your RV on a hot or muggy day. The included start capacitor will help jumpstart the AC. This beneficial upgrade provides the AC a boost when shore power or generator power isn't enough to start it. And everything you need in order to replace your AC unit is included, which makes installation simple and easy.


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), youll 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.

    The only direct replacement for Carrier AC Units we offer are going to be the Advent Air Replacement RV Air Conditioners # ACCAR150 or # ACCAR135 . I recommend going with the 15000 BTU unit to help cool your 2006 Holiday Rambler.

These units come equipped with a start capacitor that stores power to allow for starting the AC unit...

  • Installed New Advent AC And Compressor Will Not Kick On
    Hello Brison. How much voltage are you reading at the power wire for the Advent AC unit? If you aren't getting 115v at the condenser and 12v at the thermostat, the unit is not going to work properly. I do not suspect a bad start capacitor, but this could also be caused by a communication error between the thermostat and condenser if you are mixing and matching brands with the AC and thermostat. If this is the case it can be solved by replacing the thermostat and distribution box with one...

    The Carrier Air V RV Air Conditioner is no longer produced so a direct replacement of the same unit is not an option. However, we do have available the two Advent AC models that are designed as replacement units for the Carrier Air V.

  • Replacement AC Recommendations for Carrier V on a Jayco Class C Motorhome
    To replace just the AC unit I recommend going with the Advent Air as the wiring will just be a plug and play installation: - 13.5K Btu # ACCAR135 - 15K Btu # ACCAR150 These will work with your current distribution panel so everything will fit the same. For a complete new AC system (including the distribution box) I recommend going with a Furrion Chill HE because the distribution box has a smaller 19-11/16" long x 19-11/16" wide profile: - 13.5K Btu # FR52PR - 15K Btu # FR92PR

    Hello again Keith; the # ACM135 and # ACCARKIT will work to replace your AC if it is a Carrier unit. The only difference between these two parts and the # ACCAR135 from my other answer is that you won't have the start capacitor # ACMSCKIT.

  • Replacement AC Unit Recommendation for a Carrier AC Unit
    I'd be happy to help you choose a new AC unit! We unfortunately don't carry the Dometic AC units at this point in time (May 2023) but we do have some alternatives. If you're needing something to plug right into your Carrier setup we have an Advent Air system that uses the same connections: - 13.5K Btu # ACCAR135 - 15K Btu # ACCAR150 For a completely new system with a thermostat I recommend checking out the Furrion Chill HE systems: - 13.5K Btu # FR95PV - 15K Btu # FR55PV
