Will 13,500 Btu Advent Air Rooftop RV Air Conditioner be Sufficient for 98 Square Foot Trailer

Updated 06/05/2018 | Published 06/01/2018

Question:

Im interested in the Advent air conditioners with the heat strip. My travel trailer is 98 square feet. It would seem that the 13500 btu unit would suffice. Any reason to get the larger one? Im hoping to run it on solar power eventually.

For your travel trailer that is only 98 square feet, the Advent Air Rooftop RV Air Conditioner w/ Vent # ACM135CH that you referenced should have plenty of capacity with its 13,500 Btu per hour cooling capacity. Generally speaking this Btu per hour capacity is sufficient for a space that is up to around 550 square feet, so this should do a really nice job for your application.

The air conditioner itself measures 24-7/8 inches long, 31-3/16 inches wide, and 12-13/16 inches tall. This 1450 watt unit features high, medium, and low fan settings that will allow you to choose a fan speed and foam pads that will reduce noise.
