High efficiency manual AC unit for ducted or ductless systems lets you replace or add a new AC to your RV.Replaced a 26-year-old Coleman Mack (compressor failure) with this. 90-degree, humid Midwest temps no challenge for this. On medium cool I an bring the RV down to 70 degrees inside. Easy install. I did it myself. I like the rotary controls on the disruption panel. I have a hard time with the touch screen thermostats and controllers. Very good replacement for an Older RV with an aging A/C unit.
Easy to install works perfect! Thank y ou!
This unit arrived well packed, no problems with shipping damage.
Works much better than the old coleman 13500 unit we had.
Will actually get down to temperature and turn of, old unit never turned off.
adapter kit for coleman unit , holes did not line up with existing ceiling vent.
Had to screw spacers to four corners in roof opening to attach air conditioner.
The wiring harness worked fine, plug and play. Over all very happy
First unit arrived broken but did not find that out until I got it on the roof of my RV. Second unit short-cycled from the first time I turned it on. I called etrailer and they said I would have to deal with Furrion for warrantee work. Furrion sent me a claim form that I was supposed to get a repairman to fill out. One local RV store said months before they could service the unit, the other wouldn't touch an AC unit installed by owner. Did everything I could to repair myself, but could not find the problem. After months (6) I read a blog that mentioned how a Furrion owner found a room air-temp wire in the middle of unit that sensed cold air as soon as the unit started, so it shut off the unit. I looked at my unit and, sure enough, found an indoor-temp wire and outdoor-temp wire in the blower cavity. Pulled wires out and pinched them under the exhaust panel to keep them away from the cold air and the unit started working more properly. I think I may need to connect a temp gauge to the indoor-temp wire and get it further from the unit. Why doesn't the unit use the thermostat to know what the inside temp is? Unfortunately, through this whole process, etrailor was no help at all.
Trailer is my go-to site for anything related to my RV and towing. Customer support is always outstanding with knowledgeable staff. I originally ordered this through the manufacturer. They randomly chose me for a security check that lasted 3 weeks. After they confirmed I was me they said my card was rejected and I had to start my order over again. I did just that with etrailer and got a better price.
It should be noted that I am a full timer so my billing and shipping addresses are never the same. However, I have not experienced that problem with trailer. Maybe because etailer understands most people don't use their RV at home so they don't always need parts at home. Go figure.
The Furrion is a good product. My old AC was putting out air at 51 degrees. The new Furrion is putting out air at 38 degrees. I don't hear much mechanical noise with the Furrion but the sound of the air flow is just as loud. This is due to ducting, not the unit. So don't expect a much quiteter AC system. Also, since you are using your old Coleman controller make sure you write down your old model and serial number incase your controller ever goes bad.
One final thing. My old AC units were Airxcell. I could not find any reference from Furrion if this unit replaces Airxcell. It does as Airxcell is part of Coleman. Therefore, I purchased one unit to ensure it would work and then bought the second one.
This Furrion replacement A/C is still working very well. This unit replaced a Coleman unit. The Furrion A/C unit is much, much quieter running, both inside and outside than the Coleman. I am pleased with how fast that it chills and dehumidifies the air in the camper. I have a 26' Navion. Most of the time, it runs on low fan setting.
I installed this unit myself after having someone with a forklift move it to the roof. Installation and wiring was very simple and straightforward.
I thank William S at eTrailer for his wonderful support and helping me solve this frustrating problem!
Aside from the very soft plastic cover the system does work well. Currently draws less than 14amps full on. The old Coleman Mach mounting frame did not work. However, the Mach 8 does fit (specifically the Coleman-Mach Lateral Ducted ChillGrille Ceiling Assembly 8430A6321). Highly recommend the ducted kit. Currently using the existing Coleman Control Boxes and Thermostats.
It was easy to swap out and install, we have a forklift so we didn’t have to lift it up a ladder
The unit came quickly and was in great shape, however the junction box was no attached to the unit, so I had to grab a couple screws and attach it see pictures , the unit is running nice and quiet and dropping the temperature , so far so good! It would be nice if it had an owners manual or some type of directions shipped with it
This unit replaced my old one perfectly. The adapter wires plugged right into the factory plug and the foam seal on the bottom of the new unit is nice and thick. It sounds about the same inside the camper while it's on but outside it is much quieter, especially while the compressor and outside fan are off. Also it seems to use less electricity than the old one. I definitely recommend.
Working great so far, compared to the GE that came on my trailer.
The hardest part is getting it on the top of your trailer. It'll take two or three people for that part. Other than that, hook up was pretty straight forward.
I had watched the etrailer and a couple other YouTube videos before attempting it.
Awesome, what a difference!!!! We replaced 2 coleman mach 15ks that were 2 years old and never stopped running in 90+ degree heat and humidity. As soon as I installed them and turned them on it was like night and day. Also one of the big differences was the Furrions were blowing colder than the Colemans and they pulled all the moisture out of our rig as they cooled it down. I would highly recommend these units, we are extremely happy with them.
Thanks! to etrailer for reminding me to do this review after a year. VERY few businesses do this, and they wouldn't have had to do this. This speaks volumes about etrailer. I bought this Furrion A/C to replace a very problematic defective Dometic unit which died just BARELY out of warranty. After multiple attempts to get Dometic to do the right thing and replace their defective unit, they chose to instead to drag their investigation on for weeks and then never even afforded me the common courtesy of a definitive answer to my request. Sadly, this same thing happened to several of us here in this RV park, and we all replaced these units with Furrions. In short, this Furrion air conditioner works like a champ, and with the help of our other smaller size bedroom A/C, will quickly cool this sizable rig down to meat locker temps, and that's an accomplishment here in Southwest Florida where we invented heat and humidity! Thus far, this has proven to be a MUCH better A/C unit than the Dometic. Colder, and a considerably more powerful fan system, and the technical advise and service from etrailer has been spot-on. After a year, I can comfortably say that if you're considering a new A/C unit for your rig, this is the one to get and etrailer's the place to get it. Don't be fooled by some of these internet sites that might be a few bucks cheaper. There's a big difference between price and value and this is hands-down the best value in RV A/C units. When I need another one, I'll come right back here to etrailer and get another one. I'd be loyal to them because they earned it...and that's a rare commodity these days!!
Stay cool !!
Shipped fast and safe.
Unit was easy to install and works well. It is considerably louder than my Coleman Mach that I removed. Coleman conversion kit worked like a charm.
I ordered on Tuesday and it showed up Thursday. It took me only 3 hours to install. That was by my self and I am 68 years old. The unit is a lot quieter than the Dometic I was replacing. It runs at 50 decibels sitting right under it. It is truly a plug and play. Remove one temp probe, one cannon plug, four bolts and you let gravity take the old unit off the roof. The hardest part was getting the new unit on the roof. Again E trailer has gotten me a good product quickly for a good price.
Great turnaround time on delivery, quality products at a reasonable price! The furrion acs worked to replace 2 Coleman acs . Easy!!!
It is a good unit and works well. It was very easy to replace existing unit with adapter cable and mounting hardware.
So far everything is going good
Have it installation went great
This unit was easy to install .. pig tail worked perfectly.. in use for one full summer.. better than original!! Would definitely recommend
It does not replace a Dometic Blizzard NXT. The wiring harness is a 6 pin on the Furrion. Dometic did not start using 6 or 9 pin until last few years. This is not compatible with pre 2021 Dometic wiring.
Quinn was great finding the parts for the replacement of my RV air conditioner
Do you have a question about this RV Air Conditioner?
