As you are adding the Advent Air Low Profile RV Air Conditioner # ADV89FR to an opening on your RV which did not already have an AC you will need to select from one of the 2 options. First is the manually controlled Air Distribution Box # ACDB. This has the manual dial you will switch on and off as needed. The other option is the Air Distribution Box w/ Wall-Mounted Thermostat # ACRG15. This is typically more convenient and necessary on taller campers where you cannot easily reach the ceiling control box. It will require you to run a thermostat wire if your camper did not already come with this.

I do recommend also adding the Start Capacitor # ACMSCKIT to reduce the amount of strain on the wiring when the AC starts.
